World of Warcraft: Forever
- Thread starter Mahes
- Start date
Pulled one last night. Much sadness, many regret today. My left shoulder is all jacked up and I've been a zombie. The fuck did I mess up my shoulder playing WoW god damnit?
Warlock started to feel great in the second half of the teens. Chain pulled the entirety of WC in a group of 18-20s. Never once ate or drank tab dotting every pull and mostly using wand as filler. We had a druid healing who kept up great and kept pissing me off by refusing to let me drain life after life tapping so I assume they were keeping up fine. We got four packs by accident at one point which we handled just fine and the only time we really CC'd anything. Think the mage had a bit of mana trouble tho. Wish I'd been running some meters.
Dungeons feel great with competent folks so I'm glad to hear they buffed their XP. I'd rather chain instances than fuck around in the overworld walking everywhere. That said I've for sure had some good overworld groups that came together naturally in some of the high mob density areas and ended up questing together for a while. Really dig the request an invite dealio.
One more edit before I crash. Finally got some addons and Questie is a game changer for sure. The follow an arrow type shit is idiotic but questie is just QoL personified. I've been here, I've done that, five times over at least.

No that is just how it starts. They straight admitted that retail got there via death by a thousand cuts. So they're starting from the beginning and attempting to not do that.
Yet here you are demanding those same little cuts. Suppose they make these "small changes" you want? You'll what? Be satisfied? Or immediately start demanding the next few "little changes."

I did that in RF, and accidentally let my pet butt pull a pack of mobs. Wiped us. LOL. No one was cranky about it, and tank worked around it by pulling back to group. I set my pet to passive and stayed back. In my defense, I haven't done a dungeon in a decade. I made up for it by passing on all the loot rolls. Ran out of arrows before last boss. DPS drop off was very noticeable, but was easy anyway.I ran out of arrows right before the last boss in hall of thanes last night

We tried the two new low level dungeons yesterday, the one in Ironforge is not really well designed, too much moving around, anoying trash and uninteresting boss. and fuck dark iron dwarves, we got our share of them in BRD. I liked the one in Undercity much better, already had a good Stratholme vibes, and our priest was really pleased with his set items, he got 3 or 4 of them in one run. Going there as alliance is a pita though.

Last Hunter Pet question. I am currently trying to "learn" an ability from a mob, and there are a couple oddities. First is that the pet never uses the ability it has (Dust) even when set to auto-use, it works when I manually use it. Second, how do I know I've learned the ability? Do I have to constantly open the Beast Training UI to see? Reason I ask this is that when I tamed a spider with Bite, it was available after one use and the spider would use it when set to auto-use. So this particular pet is being odd.
Edit: Bugged, I guess. My other pet won't use it as well. It also has some hidden internal cooldown not shown on its tooltip.

The version of WoW you are looking for is Retail. Go play it.

Man we've reached the point where even in WoW we tell newbs to go back to WoW.

I think they are definitely starting off on the right foot here. There is a meaningful amount of friction in the game and nothing blatantly retarded. I like the crates you can get for profession stuff. I found a few but since everyone is still leveling profs I doubt they'll get a lot of use just yet. But you load up the crate and turn it in for a trader currency to get exclusive recipes. Which is a good resource sink.
Exceptions being how layering can fuck with quests. Especially timed quests. If you abandon a timed quest you need to leave the area so the layer sorts out which NPC you got it from so you can restart it.
Of the new quests I have found most of them are okay and fit in well. The STV Fishing Derby ran on Sunday and a guildmate said it was absolutely packed already. I remember back in the day the way to win that was to roll with the boys and kill any alliance in the area and have everyone inform you where the Tastyfish were as they found them. I never won it myself but I did take part in that a few times.
Weird, long quests like the Cozy Sleeping Bag are exactly what Forever needs. IMO. The Sweats sweating here and not the actual mechanically hard content in retail are the definition of Classic Andys migrating over to Forever.
I think if you're playing this with RestExp or Questie or whatever you are doing yourself a disservice. Just go with what you remember and see what new stuff you find.

Did the game take forever to launch yesterday for you guys (no pun intended) or is it on my end? I click the game icon and it takes a full min just to launch the account login splash screen. Up until yesterday it was near instant. I didn’t know if it was server lag or my pc. I did try installing curse forge for questie yesterday, so could be related to that, but then I uninstalled it all and it still took wow forever to launch so who knows.
Yes! Same happened to me. Clicked it twice thinking nothing happened then when I shut it down there was a second instance just sitting there. Both clicks took some time to launch though.

Original WoW FoH was PvEj Horde on Hyjal server. They swapped to BDF shortly after Nax40 opened up, and it was free to transfer.
