Has anyone had a Garrison invasion beyond the very first tutorial one?

Just got a warforged ilevel 651 weapon from follower mission... I'm pretty sure my followers are better at WoW than I am.

When Professor Wells rattled off the list of people who died that night I smiled like a cheshire cat. Was also quite cool having Clock King show up as a secondary threat, good use of continuity ahead of the big crossover next week.

What the fuck is up with the Dwarven Bunker \ War Mill? I'd say nearly 90% of the time it gives 1 Iron Horde Scraps for the 20GR workorder and the other 10% it might give a pretty crappy weapon / armor boost for a follower. I'm easily getting more out of the Salvage Yard and thats with the...

Jim Corrigan wasn't quite what I was expecting. Still was nice to have a good chunk of Spectre foreshadowing at the end.

The first episode came out today. I found I couldn't stop once I started, damn good and fits in well with the Borderlands universe

So they admit there is a lack of Draenic Dust from Enchanting so their solution is to make it so when you DE blue items instead of getting a Luminous Shard you now get 6-9 Draenic Dust? Since Luminous Shards take 20 Draenic Dust I fail to see how this is anything but making the problem worse.

Got a nice 645 staff from a mission this AM. I do need to get some scavengers though. I should have taken the inn just long enough to get some headhunter followers and the flask item.

Boost is there for whenever wherever you want. Everything through Mist of Pandaria is now part of the base WoW so getting the expansion gets you everything you need. Note that the older areas are ghost-towns and the experience curve is so meteoric that even if you want to stop and smell the...

Im very sad that Korra will not be followed up by the Varrick Mover Variety Hour

Nice use of Ivy this episode. I was wondering if she would ever come back. She's pretty damn freaky. Good use of Gordon's demotion to get s good look inside Arkham.

Technically all my upgrades from this point are things only from tradeskills/ raiding / followers raiding. However looking over my gear I am disgusted with the number of pieces with trashy secondary stats thanks to the shotgun approach to itemization in lieu of reforging. The game seems...

The biggest issue I had was the one others have mentioned about launching from earth with solid rocket boosters and then casually flying around and off of a 1.3g planet just with the engines on one of the rangers. Well that and the two years they take to get to Saturn and then apparently just...

I actually got my first 615 missions show up when I only had two 615 followers. Ive been likewise holding onto upgrades until I can at least use the boost-to-615 item on each follower prior to using the +X versions.

For boosting ilevel you don't even need to go to Ashran, the wargame practice PVP armor they sell at the Ring of Trials in Nagrand is ilevel 660 and a couple pieces were enough to push me over when I hit 100. Still have to pass the Proving Grounds but no one should have much trouble with that...

Doesn't bunker feel somewhat mandatory both for continual upgrade of follower ilevel + the free bonus roll each week? I really wanted to use the Mage Tower since... well... I'm a Mage, but the Ogre Waygates seem to be fairly annoying and the crit buff is fancy but only for outdoorsy content...

Did Molten Core after it came active and it was very nostalgic but once was enough. Don't get me wrong I had fun with the original MC but damn if many of those mechanics seem arbitrary and punishing compared to more modern encounters. Of course 40 random people is going to be a differt...

I played the original on a PC and decided to go PS4 this time around since it seemed rather actiony. The tactical view where you give orders and then advance time is somewhat clunky on the PS4 as I have a devil of a time timing the 'time step' so that I move forward one round and end up missing...

Well they did up the personal loot chance in the later stages of LFR MoP prior to the expansion. Perhaps some remnant of that increased drop % managed to get incorporated into the heroic drop rates? I think I'm going to call bullshit on the notion that they received overwhelming or even...

Yeah this isnt a Gem level situation. I do think it is the Inhumans / Attilan / Kree and that has major fallout for the MCU, but I dont think we really can expect yet another Infinity Gem to make its way to Earth in this manner.

Who were the nimrods who thought personal loot was bad? Im guessing the types that rolled Need on every possible item and who thus felt that they were not getting as much loot. Overnight we go from a very simple loot system to one where people are again angry after losing a sought-after...

So they added 50 Garrison Resources to the first Heroic of the day, but also changed LFG loot mode back to Need/Greed instead of personal loot. I was actually kinda liking the personal loot. In fact I just lost an offhand Int item to a Paladin. I didnt even know Paladins could use...

It is a bit puzzling that some of the buildings have passives that are most appropriate when levelling and yet it is likely you won't be able to build them until you are either done or nearly done with exp. Personally I find the tradepost and salvage to be invaluable. Especially as I'm trying...

The Garrison Campaign was a pleasant surprise. Like having Patch.X content only at launch. The illusion of things happening is very good at getting me to login and stay logged in. I only this AM realized that First Aid now makes healing pots instead of bandages. There is no excuse for...

Nearly everything about this show is making me happy. There was a definite risk in doing an Arrow spinoff as to whether lightning could strike twice. The showrunners seem to have a good handle on things and you just know that Warner Brothers / the CW is looking to see if they can pull a third...

Yeah when grouping in heroics yesterday I noticed that the other dps were taking a lot of avoidable damage and not making use of any damage mitigation or self healing. I was using Ice Barrier on cooldown and chugging healing pots when needed. Since I have a Mistweaver monk alt I was also...

The sad part is that the dungeons seem to be well crafted. At any rate the encounters are interesting and even the layout manages to obfuscate the long-tunnel nature of traditional WoW dungeons. Be cool if they implemented Epic dungeons in a patch or two with cool loot tuned to baseline...

Yeah it's not the blue so much as the generic and the notion of not only rerunning over and over to get the spec matching one, but ideally the spec matching one with a gem socket. It seems weapons are somewhat dungeon specific in that only a couple drop mage offhand items for instance, but if...

Having the Heroic dungeons drop generic blue crap is a downer. I understand the reason, they want to have plenty of options for everyone to tune their build now that they removed the means to tune your build with Reforging and they don't want any one particular dungeon to suffer greatly from...

I fully intended to jump right in and not bother with customizing my character. Then I decided I wanted to change just his hair... an hour later I was able to actually start the game. *sigh* Damn you Bioware!!!

That is a ridiculous collectors edition. Pretty well done, but very over the top. I decided on digital download and PS4 for this puppy even though it will look better on the PC I figure any PC gaming I do over the next little while will be WoW and this looks cinematic enough to play in the...

Anyone else playing the 'card game' for this? Has a freemium vibe in that they want you to buy extra turns / advance the daily quest but it has been a somewhat amusing distraction to get me back in the lore and vibe of Thedas.

See I don't see the levelling experience to be a good story at all. You go through the portal and in the course of the introduction you not only stop the invasion but blow up the damn portal. Sure you end up running at the end, but considering you came through with Khadgar and his Scoobies...

This is a very valid point which I had forgotten. In BC we had Shaman/Paladins with Dranei and Bloodelves, Icecrown we had Death Knights. Cataclysm we had Goblins and Worgen plus new valid race/class combos, MoP had Monks and Pandaren so both a totally new class and a new race. There were a...

Are people watching this off iTunes? Nick.com appears to have the episode posted, but when I go to it the content is currently unavailable...

No that is one of the major changes with this expansion. After 10 years of sentient beings on every world and adjacent dimension carrying pocket-squares that can be stitched together to make bolts of cloth we now have to go kill fuzzy-wuzzies and 'spin' fur into cloth, mostly done by the...

Played Shadowrun:Crossfire last night. Cooperative deck building game rather like Pathfinder (board game that is). We got our assets kicked the first time, but the second try we managed to carefully strategize our way to victory. Only downside with these Campaign style builder games is not...

Yeah that is probably my biggest beef with the WoD storyline: The Iron Horde are transcendently terrible at what they do. They build up a huge military on Draenor (including a train and lots of steel warships neither of which you can take through your portal) and then invade Azeroth for...

Note that isn't young Khadgar. That is normal old Khadgar from Shattrath City chit chatting with Adal. He's gotten a shave and a haircut and is therefore looking more badass, but it's still the Khadgar from our universe. It occurs to me that part of the reason Blizz is soooo adamant that...

Things were going great and then BAM mega lag and Garrisons etc unaccessible
