    And lo, the seventh seal opened, and it was call to arms for DPS on Archimonde.

    (I didn't get anything useful from the satchel)

    Those satchels are shit now. They used to have mounts and crap and now all they have is baleful gear.

    The 550ish gold doesn't hurt, though. I do wish they'd stick some Felblight in them, though.

    Eh, Felblight is worth shit all these days. It's dipping below 100g each on my server.

    I have a podcast about Digimon called the Digital Moncast, on Audio Entropy.

    the empowered augment runes are nice for gearing alts, and you can also pull legion medallions from them

    Anyone know if the draenor dungeons quest that starts tomorrow counts mythics done today? Hesitant to start dungeons today if i'll have to re-run them for credit.

    I'd be pretty surprised if it counted anything you did prior to accepting the quest.

    the weekly quests are weird that way; I know they'll count such as area quests done during the week even if you pick the 'complete five' quest up after doing the area daily.

    I don't know for a fact that it counts mythic dungeons retroactively that way though, so I'll probably hold off on doing them

    it was the smallest on the list but
    Pluto was a planet and I'll never forget

    Yeah pretty much the only time I'll take advantage of the call to arms for LFR/LFD now is when it's for time walking (more time walker badges than doing the dungeon itself? Yes please).

    I did it this time for the novelty, it's not too often that you see it for DPS, let alone the last wing of LFR.

  • Options

    I do call to arms when I'm doing LFR. There's almost always at least one wing that has the CTA for healers. I queue for all the CTA wings of HFC at once, when I finish a wing I do that again, until I've done my lfrs for the week. It works out pretty well and I get extra runes and whatever else those bags have in them.

    Did Garona's mom/dad arrive on Azeroth some 20-30 years before the Dark Portal opened? If she's a full grown adult by the time the Dark Portal opens? What's up with that?

    Eh, something something, "we've spent decades testing dimensional magic and have snatched people from Azeroth before with spells and small raids, now we're finally ready for the big portal".

    Medivh/Sargeras found a way to cross over briefly after the planet was found by Kil'jaedan(he was able to do some astral projection mojo to talk with Gul'dan and explain the building of the Dark Portal, so who's to say he didn't do so earlier?)

    Yadda yadda.

    Garona was born, and subsequently forcibly aged by fel magic.

    I'll often queue for Archimonde LFR if the tank or healer CTA is up. If there's a tank CTA it usually means that a tank has bailed on the group at high determination and I can swoop in and finish it off easily, netting an easy 550g + 150 valor.

  • Options

    I'd bet that the Mythic weekly does count ones done earlier in the week since you have a limited amount you can do in the week due to lockouts. That's also the reason why I'd suggest you don't risk finding out for sure and just wait for the quest.

    On the subject of mythics, I have two tanks alliance-side, if anyone wants to group up for some laid back runs feel free to PM.

    Is there a reliable way to tell who is a complete newbie in starting zones and who isn't?

    I feel like I want to do something with my ludicrous amount of gold, so I'd like to fly around handing out some gold. But I don't want to give it to someone who is just on their 10th alt. Any ideas?

    Maybe look for people who clearly look inexperienced while fighting mobs? Also, them not wearing any heirlooms would be a good sign.

    But yeah, I don't think there's any easy way.

    My ultimate issue was it was hard finding people from my server, and, it was hard finding people not on trial accounts when I did that.

    Heirlooms are a good indication though. So I just kind of hovered around stormwind/orgrimmar and gave away my shit.

    not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

    yeah no kidding on that first point, I did a /who 1-60 on my server and there were literally 42 people online on the whole server below level 60.

    Wow that's a lot.

    I had 5 to prune through.

    I wonder if that is affected by sharding/xrealm though?

    It would take longer, but you could look for uninformed players asking questions in lower level zones. While they may not be newbies, the charity may go a long way on keeping them playing.

    Arcane Mage is available on the Alpha. I guess I'm leveling a second mage on there this weekend. The changes to Fire were really fun, but now it is time to be for serious.

    What's the mod that shows where treasures are on the map? I want to finally use my boost to get another 90 that I will then use an exp pot on and treasure farm up to 100 so I can then get another farm chance at the valintine's mount.

    It's also buggy as hell right now apparently, a bunch of their abilities just straight up crash the client.

    I'm so bored that I'm trying to think of a way to x-realm a Whale Shark kill so I can get the Shark Tank for my ships. I've also decided to start optimizing the Shipyard based on a few Wowhead guides. It mostly involves rolling the dice to get Undead crews, and then getting them the proper equipment after the fact.

    Friendly reminder that beta was supposed to begin two months ago.

    The Activision quarterly report all but confirms the Year of HFC since Legion is expected to be released after the movie (which is a June release). So what's the excuse this time? They had the mythic man hour for WoD, but in the long run that was totally going to get stuff out quicker. Seriously. For real this time. Honest.

    Well, hearing that a spec of a class is currently crashing the game, it doesn't sound like they are close to a beta either.

    It almost seems like HFC could actually be around a RECORD amount of time.

    Well that's understandable though, if they're trying to get somewhat focused feedback during this phase of the alpha. They already got feedback on those quests and they want you doing other shit now.

    Can I just say, really quickly, how unbelievably dumb it is that now 11 years post release we still have to jump through ridiculously stupid hoops to get gold to alts on other servers/factions? Christ almighty - no one buys these pets so it's basically "pay Blizzard money to move a character". It's way past time for gold to be account-wide.
