Iron Scraps are only useful for cosmetic items?
Yep.
I still need to collect like 310 of the fucking things.
Ah ok, no point in wasting my garrison resources on that work order then! Thought I might get something good from them

Dwarven Bunker / War Mill: Work orders now award more Iron Horde Scraps and increased the drop rates for Follower Enhancements.
I'm very happy about this.
Only one exalted rep for level 3 Trading Post. Guess I'll finish farming that up on my DK before I switch mains.
Is this live? My last three work orders today each gave me a single scrap.
Just did LFR. Heroic UBRS was tougher. Molten Core is waaaay tougher.
At least I got abrogator stones.
The Barn continues to disappoint. I tried to solo one of the Nagrand Elites and it wasn't going well. Cue 3 minutes of me riding around on my talbuk chipping away at a Clefthoof's health 0.1% at a time with Heroic Throw until a nearby hunter bailed me out so I could trap it. Needing to form custom groups to feed a garrison building on an alt is no bueno.
oh the elites you need for the blood are those group ones?
The introductory level 3 barn quest requires you to capture one of the three elite talbuk/clefthoof/elekk mobs in Nagrand. Not the Steamwheedle rep elites.
I feel like I do more DPS as frost. I was topping dps tonight. I never raided with Unholy before WOD and I dislike it too. Simcraft says Unholy would only be 144 dps more for me at 642.Not the best raid night. Feel like I'm underperforming some, but I'm not sure how to fix it. I think I'm doing mostly everything right even though I'm new to Unholy. My DPS isn't bad per se, but my sims say I should be a couple thousand higher. Doesn't help that a huge portion of my damage now comes from the Soul Reaper execute (which still feels funny to me vs. Kill Shot or Warrior Execute), compared to DW Frost in MoP where it wasn't even worth it.
May just be gear and fight learning curve, we'll see.
Had to sit out for the Heroic Butcher kill since I DCed a couple times - one wipe caused by my DC. Not the best time for your internet to flake out.
ah ok
I need to try me some new specs. hows Disc on priests and DW frost on DKs?
Disc is competitive in raids but struggles in 5 man CMs. DW Frost just got buffed although 2h Frost and Unholy are still above it on sims.
I actually dont have 1handers, so I can only try 2h frost for now. I mean, the rotations and whatnot are the same anyway right? its not like spells change
DW Frost stacks Mastery and their main damage comes from Frost Strike and Howling Blast, dealing mostly magic damage. 2h Frost stacks crit and multistrike (I think?) and their main damage comes from Obliterate, dealing mostly physical.
I'm pretty sure both specs use Obliterate and Frost Strike but DW will prioritize FS and 2h would prioritize Oblit. This all coming from a guildie who plays DPS DK and not from personal experience.
LFR is really something else. Should probably give lower ilevel rewards than normal dungeons.
whats the LFR ilvl again?
LFR should not be giving out 640 ilvl items when it's this easy, that's what you get as rewards from CM runs.

Considering I didn't get shit from LFR, it agrees with you.LFR should not be giving out 640 ilvl items when it's this easy, that's what you get as rewards from CM runs.

What they need to do for LFR is raise the minimum ilvl by 5, have everything do 20-30% more damage, and buff the hp of Kargath and The Butcher (Brackenspore's feels fine).
who is saying it comes out the 27th?That's why I didn't bust my ass worrying about CM runs with a bunch of mouth breathers when its not neccessary to be 640 geared for heroic even, and LFR drops 640 anyway.
I'm only 5/7 on normal but we got Ko'Ragh down to 5% tonight, so I expect we'll start the Imperator grind tomorrow. I'm not in a huge rush, since I just found out BRF doesn't come out until Jan 27th.
At a certain point you're not even a tourist if the experience isn't even remotely emulated.I'm not exactly sure what benefit is gained from making the 'tourist mode' harder? If you want a challenge, you do normal/heroic/mythic. They said that they wanted LFR to be tourist mode, and it is. It's also why I didn't buy any crafted gear because I knew I could get decent enough stuff from LFR to pug into normals.

It shows people a template of what they could be doing. Past LFR had people thinking they 'beat the game' when they really didn't. This is so borderline 'hey look at the textures' and the lack of moggable gear that it is bashing people over the head with 'this isn't the end-game. You want to do normal.'
I avoided CM runs because I read frustration from the guild, and I just avoid frustrating content in MMO's until it's toned down/fixed/whatever. Glad I did. I had no idea LFR dropped 640 and was this easy. I'll do this when I'm bored and run normal with the guild.
