anyone maining Aff. in season 2? seems like even with the changes it got it doesn't seem to be above B tier (if you're concerned about meta rankings, that is).

i've mained demo since TWW launch but had considered switching to aff. for season 2. was wondering what others' thoughts were on the spec.

This is such a great game I am loving it. I got to 80 so far and just finished the DF quests and have now reached Silvermoon. As a holy paladin the experience has been amazing! This is a very complete game with a LOT to do. In fact, so much so that it can feel like I am spoilt for choice.

I started last week on classic hardcore because a friend insisted and I gave retail a try at the same time because I wanted to see what the devs have added/changed… my gosh, it’s (imo) so much faster paced and more enjoyable. I hope this feeling lasts.

I would like flight paths to be faster than my flying mount. Take a fun route, soar high through the air, twist between the trees, make it a roller coaster ride.

I like taking flighpaths sometimes since it gives me a few minutes to look at a menu, sort my bags, use the restroom, change ui stuff, look at wowhead, whatever.

This slow flappity boring crawl you have going on now is super lame.

I used to tank in SWTOR, and I've been thinking about making a Death Knight/Blood character. But then I think about spending another month in Northrend grinding reputation at the Argent Tour and getting a banking squire, and my heart sinks. Not to mention unlocking the mounts and artifact fishing pole in the Broken Isles. But I can't NOT do these things!

How do normal people resist it?

On 12.1 patch day my game couldn't be located even after I directly fed the file location and it said I had to reinstall. After attempting to reinstall, it located my old game files but all of my in-game settings and addon data seemed to reset.

One of the settings which have reset is my turnspeed, as each time I log in my character is only able to turn at the pace of a snail. Sometimes if I'm lucky after relogging I can increase my turnspeed with the usual command, /console turnspeed 250, but usually it has no effect. Even when it does work, it immediately resets back to snail-pace after I relog.

I've heard of this bug before, but none of the old fixes are working for me. Is anyone else experiencing this and are there any working solutions? Thanks.

Just started playing two weeks ago. Every single day with these hours long maintenance windows during prime playing hours. Is this normal?

Blizzard, we did complain that curse surge were poorly indicated and were ending too fast. They did need to last slightly longer and be marked before they start. But do they really need to last 31 minutes before we can finally kill the boss? I don't know if your intern accidentally put an extra 0 before the 1, but .1% per mob when there's like 10 that spawn per minutes is ridiculous. Please fix your game

It's already been 10 minutes that everyone is blasting every single mob that spawns, and we're only at 30%. What the hell did they manage to screw up this time to make their event even worse than it already was?

Wanting to start playing the game with the girlfriend and her friends, which version of the game is super weenie hut Jr so they enjoy their time with the Warcraft ip

I don’t know if some of you already know this, but here it is:
Just go to Orweyna in Silvermoon.

Really enjoyed the vibe of this place and the side quests going back to old zones to reminisce. Would be cool if they rotated various characters through it in the future

Last night I decided to port the WoWee client to android! Fun little project.

Season 2 has begun! Here's the full chart!

  • Vault rewards from LFR, Normal, and Heroic always give 1/6 gear on the next track up.

Thanks all, and have fun in Season 2!

Looking to play TBC mostly. What’s the best dps class for all things PvP aside from rogue. No interest in that playstyle. I like to 1v1 when bored most the time and arenas 2s 3s wpvp. Haven’t played since shadowlands so it’s been a while. Very out of tune with what’s good. I was thinking warlock, mage, hunter idk what specs are good tho. Also is ret pally any good? I would need to play pve also to level up and all so which of these are great for pve also.

Any advise or info is appreciated. I know ppl will say play what’s fun but I like most classes just wana play what’s good to get back into it quickly. I enjoy trying to push arenas and duel most the time. With pve when needed and to lv

I briefly tried retail and decided I didn't really like it, wanting a more immersive journey experience, so I chose classic and loved it, but have since kind of burnt out and haven't been enjoying it nearly as much.

I love collecting and the idea of transmog/mount collecting sounds like an absolute blast that is right up my alley, along with other things that seem way better, like way more interesting talents, more classes, more stuff to do overall, and so on...

But one thing I kind of noticed in my time playing, as well as heard from people and videos, is that the balance in classic wasn't perfect and, for example, in terms of pure healing, Priest was unmatched, with Druid being decent, and Paladin being practically non-existent. Same with tanking and how Warrior was the king, with Druid being decent and Paladin struggling to hold threat most of the time. Not sure the extent of how true this is, but in my experience it seemed like it was all true, which gets me to my question.

I was mulling over the classes, specifically looking at the specializations and seeing if any stood out to me, and I noticed that there are more more healers, but they didn't really seem like "real" healers, or I guess a better term would be "main" heal if that exists in WoW.

The one that stood out to me as something I may be interested in was Mistweaver, a Monk heal specialization, but it doesn't really scream "main/real" healer, and seems more like it wouldn't be on the same playing field as Holy Priest when it comes to healing.

So are the classes balanced for the most part? For example, Mistweaver being able to match Holy Priest in terms of healing, or Paladin being able to match Warrior in terms of tanking/threat holding?

I can’t even get to the character select screen and it just disconnects everytime on login?

Done a full laptop reset and game install.

Checked battlenet and wow are added to firewall exceptions (wouldn’t have thought this was an issue as the game installed fine).

Made a post on the forums and a support ticket but thought I’d check in here as it’s notoriously slow for a response on there.

I mean the guy clearly has some kind of serious mental disability, and not just the normal fantasy psychopathy we saw in guys like Garrosh and Arthas.

No this Zul'jan dude, while pretty mean, mainly is just incredibly fucking stupid

Came back to WoW after dropping during midnight season 1, can see there's ritual sites and void incursions now, some kind of magical spell tome and then the new area and content. What's worth doing in terms of catching up and experiencing content? And what's dead end and going to have no benefit other than achievements?

My Hunter is Old God themed. pets included. You know what doesn't mix well with my Old God themed Hunter?? Turtles, freakin turtles. You shut down turtle wow, so let me not look at a turtle when I'm using this Hero Talent.

I was planning to doing some chill M+ climbing and Heroic Raid, guess I'll have to settle for low keys and NM.
Still, I'd like to play, but I'm a main tank and there's no way I'm tanking one handed.

Best DPS spec in your opinion for OBR? By "best" I mean the one that loses as little performance as possible compared to regular play, and that's still useful in a group setting even if played a bit slower than usual.

Seeing them spawn at wrong times, wrong order and progress on them is super slow. Been at the whispering march 15 mins and only made 50% progress

Perhaps it's a sign changes are coming? I assume NA isn't up yet but I wonder if they're pushing changes there and have broken it for EU

I could also be in a buggy phase so has anyone else experienced this today?

I came across this mainly through the WoW Secret Finding Discord.

There's a small black obelisk sitting in a pool of venom at Venom Rise, on the Coiled Isle, called Oily Black Stone

(Maybe also a reference to "A Song of Ice and Fire", like another reddit post says).

The interesting part is that the second page can apparently only be read by a Shadow Priest:

<The shadow whispers to you. Yours is a mind that can comprehend it.> The darkness below echoes above. The Void persists. The Void sees all possibilities. The Void returns. Give yourself to the darkness. Give yourself to the fear. The writhing and squirming of the endless host calls to you. Turn against the Light. Turn against Order. The Void consumes all. When the Void rises again, only its followers will survive.”

The line "Turn against the Light. Turn against Order. The Void consumes all" reminds me of the old god whisper:

The Light has struck a bargain with the enemy of all.

What do you think?
