[WoW] Battle for Azeroth has landed!

The harder the rain, honey, the sweeter the sun.
Also is the event with the mount only available at 110? I can't remember if I ever got my orc up to that or not, but I'd like to get both mounts...
You only need to do the Darkshore stuff once, because its a dual mount. When you are on a horde character, you have the bat, when you are on an alliance character, you have the hippogryph.

Oh snap, good enough. FWIW, my orc *might* be 110. I haven't played her in so long that I forget
Yeah I know, that's why I want to knock all this stuff out this weekend.
Personal favorite leveling method, just do the basic zone quests up to getting the Pillar for the zone. Ignore side-quest areas and getting to 110 will happen around the 4th zone.
107 to 110 will take a couple days tops. If you have the money you could even speed it up with heirlooms, they can be upgraded to 110 now.

Also, if you ever plan to unlock your class mount, you may want to do Val'sharah at minimum. Certain classes need the Tears of Elune to progress at a certain point.

Discovered this the hard way while or I was trying to get my other half’s hunter to 110 and was trying to abuse the DMF buff for an Aszuna invasion.
Yeah I'm pretty sure I have all the relevant heirlooms upgraded (or at least a lot of them). I think I was doing invasions for awhile for levels too. Like I said, she might actually be 110 or really close, it's been a stupid long time and I have a lot of alts I remember I was leveling up at once :P So it's hard to remember what state each one was in (other than I know my priest got to 110).
Actually now that you mention it though, I don't think I ever got my owl on my priest, even though I did like 99.99999% of the steps required -_- I need to go back and do that...
My Rogue has been 110 for awhile though, so that's fine for me. Though I imagine her gear is a bit behind ATM. I kinda stopped playing with the last raid came out. I should probably run through that one time on LFR while people are actually still doing LFR :P
Edit: Wait, I'm an idiot. Companion app will tell me all their levels... it's been so long since I logged into it I forgot about it
Edit 2: Oh, lol. So uh, my orc is level 102 :P I guess my Shaman and Hunter are the ones that are at 107 :P Druid at 108... Whelp, probably not doing Horde side. Oh well.
Yea or Nay?
also any reason to buy before the release beyond some mounts and achieves?
Pretty sure you can do the Darkshore mount without BFA. And usually the collectors addition with the pets etc... you can still get after launch.

otherwise, not particularly
that's why we call it the struggle, you're supposed to sweat
You can, I specifically remember seeing a clarification about that.
Edit: Waaah, there are missions that award Wakening Essences? I have been gone a long time...
They replaced most of the WQ and Missions with Wakening Essence ones since the expansion is basically over.
Wait, if you have an Alliance 110, you can do the event on the rogue and get both mounts anyways. You don't need to do the event on both sides for both mounts.
You just won't get to experience it the event from the other side (except via YT).
This is not the case. After that cutscene, when you're inside the castle, Alliance players can walk back outside the hole in the wall and /dance in the middle of the battlefield, which is clear - no residual frosty fog, or blight, or anything. Looks the same as it does before the blight comes out.
What if you go back after the scenario is over? It is certainly the case in the cutscene.
If you go back afterwards, Sylvanas has released more per the end of the scenario, so of course it's back. But in between that second release and Jaina's ice nova, the area is completely cleared. No frosty fog, no gas.
Idk, I blame Arthas more for the fall of Lordaeron personally. She was just picking up the pieces of a shit situation.
gobblin and worgen still look pretty amazing to me, with the glaring exception of worgen in human form who are low-geometry golems.
Yeah, it felt like dungeon xp falls off a cliff after 100 so I just quested to 110, only doing dungeons for quests. I even got most of my gear through world quests, dungeons seem pretty unreliable for gear too. But I never got into mythic plus or whatever so idk.
You know, the one that lives in the frozen north and has frost as a main spell school.
"Orkses never lose a battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fightin so it don't count. If we runs for it we don't die neither, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!".
Don't take it near Silithus... it could cause problems.
The harder the rain, honey, the sweeter the sun.
that blight was classically more gloopy and slimey, while sylvanas has refined it into a more gaseous airborne pathogen
Wouldn't that dissipate then?
I attribute that more to the developers not programming in frozen gas, since most players won't abandon the scenario to run backwards. Regardless, my point still stands.
I've been madly running all my 2-hander users through since coming back...it seems pretty rare.
And it looks so cool!
Except that she removed it before. There's no reason to assume it wasn't removed when all evidence suggests it was.
Don't Worry About It: the answer to all lore inquiries
Are you disputing my ultimate point here? There's no way for us to decide this because there's clear evidence in the cutscene for what I'm saying and in game there's not. I think there's clear evidence it was temporarily removed, you don't, there's literally no way for us to prove this one way or the other unless Blizzard decides to tell us. But the ultimate point still stands, just because she can do it there doesn't mean she can do it to the rest of the undercity.
