    I think basically its going to mean you wind up devoting your people manning those buildings to just stick them in there and forget about them once you get them leveled to 100. They don't need to be blue or purple quality to give the max bonus so once they are 100 if that change goes in safest...

    The invasion stuff is very fun. Good way to get gold is invite a balance druid. I tend to get crushed during the fights but starfall unglyphed is really amazingly good at wrangling huge swaths of stuff to keep things off buildings/NPC's. With a healer or a tank its pretty easy to get gold doing...

    Well in the latest series of blue posts I see this. Can you guys explain the logic behind versatility, given this? It seems to be simple a +betterer stat, and feels neither interesting or fun. Yeah I'm not sure that we actually accomplished that goal TBH. We're trying to strike a balance...

    I would agree for most classes its benefits are so minor that its at best tertiary in desire. I think they tried to make it such a white bread safe stat that they wound up having it so undervalued everybody is pretty much disappointed getting gear with it.

    M. A. R. S. Mars, bitches! Orion's first flight a success.

    The problem with nasa is to do any of their major goals requires a long term planning of decades and the way they get funded changes every few years with totally new mandates every 4-8 years. There is no way to make that actually work in any sane fashion unfortunately.

    I would agree. The barracks giving 5 more followers active is by far the best overall constant benefit of any of the large buildings and really cannot see forgoing it on any character. Its nice being able to cycle in a batch of lower level guys just to do the salvage loot box train on fast...

    There are quite a few undead themed quest hubs throughout expansions although I don't recall one from pandaria but prior to that they were pretty well represented. Taurens had a lot in the old world but not as many going forward. Worgen had one area and that area was destroyed and inaccessible...

    Barn has a guy who will heal/rez battle pets in it I used him for that last night. I have to say my luck with my warmill though does sound a bit like vorph at the moment. I have gotten one item upgrade for followers a few of the hats/shoulders what not for the transmog looks and a whole bunch of...

    I totally agree after the old burning crusade nearly ignores the existence of draenai for as far as the story line of it went other than a couple minor quest hubs its nice to see an expansion that actually handles them pretty well and helps flesh them out. Now the worgen need some loving because...

    Yes for silver that is correct but for some parts of gold I believe you have to deal with two healers at the same time one I can lock down and kill no problem but when you start having to deal with multiples it is more of an issue. I eventually wound up having to switch one talent to that mighty...

    When I am in healer mode my job is stay in range of the tank. If DPS are derping around and need heals you better come to me because I am not going to chase you down and risk the tanks life. Healers range is pretty huge so there is really very little reason for a DPS to be out of a healers range.

    Also a lot of DPS have some self heal abilities and if you have them if you are eating a lot of non avoidable damage take a second and use them. I do this on my boomkin a lot given it just costs one GCD to rejuve myself which if sprinkle those in during the fight I can keep myself pretty well...

    The huge annoyance doing this with my boomkin trying to get gold is boomkins have shitty interupts on very long cool downs. I have one 45 second interrupt and another on a minute long cool down. So the healers are a huge issue simply because boomkin are really not made for interrupting things...

    Resto druids are in a good place. They have both good single target healing and good raid healing as well as high mobility and a fair amount of oh crap buttons to help fix sudden issues. Add in instant cast battle rez to full health they are in a good place at the moment. I took the level 100...

    For healers get something like the old decursive and its pretty easy to get silver. I was having a bit of mana issues with gold simply because there is no downtime to drink and I was running boomkin gear and not healer gear. That said it really is pretty good practice for dungeon running because...

    Deffinately going to give this a twirl once the full cave structure goes in and see how that works. Sounds like they are going to be generating some more interesting/complex looking islands as opposed to the super basic squares that they currently have. The square islands were fine for initial...

    that seems to be the case my warrior alt I am keeping in sync with some friends who don't play as much is currently 95 and half of their followers are 100 and the other half are in the 98+ range. Oh and for body guards their level always equals yours when you are actually out in the field...

    Probably a good choice but once you upgrade to level 3 having an inn for a few weeks is probably a good idea fish for a few scavengers and run some dungeon dalies to gear up. To get to level 2 does not cost that many GR and a few scavengers would easily pay it off in a couple days.

    Hell I am happy with even two scavengers three would be super spectacular. Seriously I cannot stress this enough if you wind up at 100 without a scavenger or two and you were ever tempted to make the inn do it and grab 2 or 3 scavenger followers. Those buggers will pay for themselves and your...

    Thats an easy one go to south port in spires of arak and fish next to the flight path sea scorp node spawn all around that area and its totally safe no hostile things in the area to disrupt your fishing.

    I started the expansion with 1k gold baring the freak selling of a purple item on my alt I have had no problems keeping up with garrison purchases as well as some random fun stuff like the hearthstone board toy out of cash I get for quests/dungeons. I thought the 5k garrison thing was going to...

    There are a few mob packs where CC is nice but overall I have done all the heroic dungeons and non seemed to really require CC for trash mobs. There are a few boss fights that have some adds where CC is useful like the shadowmoon one but overall as people finish up their dungeon/heroic dungeon...

    I am pretty sure the closer to 700 LW you have the more of the daily stuff you get per combine so it gets more and more efficient as you level it. The crafted stuff I think is a bit in limbo given how hard it is to get the blood to upgrade it some are just using their war forged blues and will...

    The mechanic is okay but there needs to be more feed back about what is going on I think. There is really nothing in game that gives any hints as to how you are progressing. This is likely something that will wind up getting added in over time as I think the lack of feed back is going to make a...

    Yup they are probably the one really worth while thing to use an inn to fish for. Ideally you want at least two of them you want to have at least one on every GR reward mission pretty much pays off your follower mission costs over time pretty easily and allows you to build up GR at a good clip.

    If you get to 100 and don't have one yet it probably is worth making a level 2 inn to force getting one. I got one randomly when leveling up who has way more than paid for himself and I just got a second one with leeroy jenkins saturday. Having two of those guys is great because I rarely have...

    One super easy body guard to get is tommok in gorgand. He is just a bit north and west of the bastion rise flight path in the far southern tip of the zone. Its a weird mini event he starts as a red mob but unhittable and he is getting attacked by those botani things. If you keep him alive and...

    Pretty much what he said always prioritize completion of the follower missions that give GR if you have any follower with scavenging use them always for these. If you have an inn and don't have a follower with scavenging use your head hunter and get one. I make a ton of GR from sending leeroy...
