6.1 is an odd beast. Despite being officially "tier 1 raid", BRF looks like it's The 6.1 raid. There's no other raid (nor dungeon) for 6.1, all the BRF-related garrison stuff comes out with 6.1 (including Garona), the release of BRF lasts 49 days (from normal/heroic to last LFR wing) across...

We had about 1290 this Saturday without pushing it on a Primal invasion. If you know it's coming and stock up on AOE, it's a point feast.

Which is why I play it. Well, actually no, I play it because that's what I've been playing since vanilla. At my age, it's a bit hard to retrain (which is why I still have problem DPSing in shadow, I'm still instinctively trying to do my "standard rotation" that hasn't existed since early cata).

It's been barely two weeks, and PTR is usually around 6 weeks. However, there's not a lot of new content outside of additional garrison and craft recipes... Despite being officially "first tier", Blackrock looks more like "6.1 raid".

Simple solution: Put "Stage 1 of 3" on them. Allow crafting improvements to be applied to them for +10 ilvl per improve. Done.

Given that I usually empty my mission queue for the night while connecting in the morning and the afternoon, I don't think a mission table is any necessary. The only mission I don't launch is the 90 one (you know which one I'm talking about, do you?)

I think that's the intent of those "masteries". Of course it's not open multi-classing like you had in GW1, it's main class+sub class, but it's their version of multiclassing.

The PTR has me slightly worried, since apparently we got ilvl 675 datamined missions. Better stock up on tokens.

Yea, it would be good if the current Void Storage/Transmog couple was scrapped, you'd simply flag any piece that you bind as "unlocked" account-wide, and you'd have it on transmog forever. But that would mean you could have alts sporting current-tier raid gear look, and we can't have that, can...

What is this shit that requires me to be "authenticated" to view your hype? Seriously? You're so desperate to have my email somewhere you need to force me to jump thru hoops to view your announcements? (even though the forums are publicly viewable)

As opposed to Delvar. If Delvar doesn't die within 15mn of getting out of your Garrison, you're doing it wrong.

They didn't actually lower the amount of XP. It's just that 6 of the professions need to go to 500 now to get their full 10 levels, and those late 100 skill points are painful to raise.

If you have money, that is.

You can still get a +3 / +6 / +9 token, but you can't get a 615 / 630 / 645 token anymore. Unless you're a brand new 100 or rotating followers from the Inn, odds are you don't need base sets, only upgrades. I'm already selling any base set except the 645 ones "just in case".

Unless you have a stablefull of alts. Basically, for your main: 10mn) Do your garrison maintenance: harvest, work orders, cooldowns, launch missions Optional: 10mn) Do fishing daily (include going to closest fishing spot to a flypath; you usually need to fish every 2 days as the 10mn...

Thankfully, you don't need to spend much time. Start in Jade Forest, do most of the quest-lines and none of the side quests, you're 88. I then would skip 4 winds straight to Kunlai Summit and do the quests aiming to the Grummle trail for the free bag; if you're lucky you'll get it before ding...

My problem is that I'm going to exceed the stack limit - again - for the green weapon tokens. If I put them in bank, I'm going to forget about them. What else can you do except put them on your followers until they max their weapon.

Got the same traders for a couple days, haven't checked for today. It's just like everything else: random is random.

All of the followers listed by Master Plan as going in for the BRF missions are upgraded to 654 (no sense in wasting 2 ilvls yet).

If you're on an alt, you probably don't. But then, if you're on an alt, you're not at the 12th campaign questline. I've begun doing some stuff for the fun, like having each possible building at least in one garrison. My NE druid is recruiting a team of all female followers. The Draenei mage is...

The first 8 are random. Once you've done these, you get the last 4 in order.

And haven't been bit by the campaign bug. I'm still salty over that.

That's home routers for like 15$. Those things were really underpowered 6-8 years ago. And that's the firewall/NAT part (OSI layer 4) which limits stuff. Layer 3 routing (IP) consumes no significant resources. A 100k-capable firewall costs probably around 1k.

That's basically how WoW worked until MoP. Every piece of gear beyond the base minimum required you to do some stuff in groups (even if it was a pickup where no one talked except maybe "hello" at the beginning). If you soloed, well, you did see zones and questlines, but didn't get far in the...

What did we get since Sand Art? We had the class scheme (all we got was a few more class names). We had the combat system (weapon prof+slotable skills) and nothing really new. We had the open world destructible system. Yes, we got some AI district conquest simulation stuff that wasn't alluded...

* edited for database error doubleposting *

i.e. "I want to remake EQ using Unity assets"?

Some routers have a difficulty managing too many connections. My old one was capped at 50; once it had 50 connections open, new connections would either fail or randomly drop existing ones. I had to tune my torrent client to keep it sane.

I've tried for a while now to have dwarves with dwarven racial, and I'm starting to think you can't be "selfish"; you're not allowed to get the same racial affinity as your own race. I presume it's to avoid complex calculations that would allow a follower a bonus for going on a mission with...

Sooo, the buzz about the Garrison Campaign is starting to rise to big noises... I've been stuck on the same combo a lot of people are reporting: Sargerei, Iron Siegeworks and Ring of Blood. After that, four weeks of no new quest. There's no "!" hidden in the garrison, the Wowhead quest analyzer...

No, they aren't. The point is, when they sold us the early acess stuff, the open beta was supposed to come end of March. 2014.

Well, that's because that's what we're sold by SOE. Or, rather, that's what we're sold now. Back in 2013, it looked like EQN would be some kind of Minecrafty game. And then, they basically said "no, it's basically EQN with player-made stuff instead of official content". And meanwhile, the "beta"...

And I just purchased a bunch of transmog stuff to disenchant. Gee, thanks! (ok, got 2 months to stockpile since they hotfixed the unique limit over 200...)

And such an early 2014 beta. I mean, it's a beta in which we just got mobs. (the normal accepted definition of beta is "when all the core systems are implemented and useable; what remains is fixing stuff, balancing features, and making content". But apparently in modern gaming industry, it's...

Which is funny, because they're preparing for 6.1 PTR. PTR lasts 6 to 8 weeks, so that means 6.1 (and presumably the Iron Dock raid) should hit just after the last LFR boss.

Initially, we were promised a full-fledged game by end of 2013. Then we learned that Smed was talking about EQ:Landmark back when it was EQN: Landmark. Then everything disappeared into a marketing black hole, and nothing. Since apparently, the tools to make EQN don't exist yet (see Landmark...

Yea. The normal BRF ilvl is below heroic Highmaul ilvl, so they're obviously part of the same tier.

PAX South (end of jan), not East (march). They don't trademark bits of the game, however, they always trademarked expansions (including the abandoned Utopia expansion). So yea, either it's a packaged version with Living Story unlocked, or an expansion.

Yea. The solution, it seems, is not to have group encounters that are only DPS, but to have classes that can do every role with the proper skill profile+posture, and then let groups decide who is going to tank, heal, dps, without requiring a specific class/classes for a given role. Rifts...

Thus the conclusion: "changing a game mid-way is really hard".
