I'm about to hit 94 and I barley breached Gorgrond. How good/important is the zone? Should I hit up the bonus objectives only then go to Talador?

I liked it. (I'm assuming you're Horde)

It's a gorgeous zone and the faction you meet there is my favorite in the expansion.

 

[Angry Grimace]

The XP per quest in Talador isn't better than Gorgrond. Just do Gorgrond.

The Laughing Skull clan has the best lines in the game. I laughed way too hard at some of the quests and dialogue.

 

[Trickster]

Aren't you supposed to get the 680 ring from the legendary questline stuff after you turn in the quest from the heroic auchindoun quest?

Only quest I have now is the one with the apexis crystal which everyone is saying isn't needed for the 680 ring....

 

[ampere]

nooo muh easy conquest

Good move, though.

Good. Was not looking forward to having to do that everyday prepping for raids. Free 660s would be too good to ignore

They hotfixed it. Apexis quest is needed. People who got to skip it will need it to progress future quests.

 

[Fjordson]

What zone comes after Shadowmoon for alliance? Gorgrond?

Got hotfixed I think.

Yep. Gorgrond -> Talador -> Spires -> Nagrand.

Ah, alright thanks.

Thought I missed a breadcrumb quest somewhere, but I've actually had a quest to go there since I was 92 :lol oops. Oh well, got to 93 purely from Shadowmoon. Awesome zone!

 

[Angry Grimace]

I just found a helmet in Ashran that's 660/600. Says it's a downgrade from my regular helmet, which is 610. Is this helmet weaker once I leave Ashran?

Yes, when you are anywhere in Ashran, the PVP stuff appears at the higher level.

 

[antonz]

I just got a quest to go to the Iron Siegeworks with Gazlowe and do a bunch of quests. Got 800 Apexis Crystals once I finished everything (including a bonus-objectives-type quest).

Yep that's the weekly garrison story. get sent to one of many 100 areas.

Does anyone else have this camera issue:

I found a random thread a year ago on it:
http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/10102720358

At random times while using either the Left-click or Right-click camera/player look functions the camera will jump to a random orientation on the screen.

I'm having it on Windows 7.

Edit: I guess it's very common? http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads...-of-screen-and-♥♥♥♥s-up-camera-angle-quot-bug

That is HUGE. Wow. Too bad the game is doomed/dying though =P

 

[Fjordson]

Holy shit, over 10 million subs again. Goddamn.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

10 million active? Damn. 12 million was their peak right?

 

[Giggzy]

That really is a huge number. Congrats Blizzard! Now don't make us go over a year without content patches!

 

[cdyhybrid]

Deserved. Expansion is great so far.

Going with this look until I can farm up my Blackrock Armor set.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

I got stranded in Gorgrond at 94 because it wasn't clear what to do once I cleared technically 'half' the zone, so I went back to my garrison and there was a breadcrumb to Talador there as well as previously unavailable SMV quests. The flow was so alien to me 'what you mean I have to keep coming back to SMV?'

Turns out there was a bug where a quest that was supposed to appear in my Gorgond outpost wasn't showing up. It would not surprise me to learn of similar bugs for other players.

 

[Yoshichan]

The massive appexis reward quest... was it a daily or weekly?

Yeah, I got it long before I had finished Shadowmoon so I was a little confused. Ignored it at first since it was way out of the way, figured it was just a one off thing.

Excited to move on to a new zone, though. Lol, damn work is slowing me down so much. Seeing so many 100's running around on my server and I'm not even 94.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Daily.

That is, if you mean the one from your garrison. As far as I know, that's the only quest for Apexis outside of follower missions, and I haven't seen one for that yet.

Related to Garrisons, I've tapped out every single quest on Draenor. I ended up spending like 800 resources on a couple of my T2 shops right before I got the quest to upgrade to level 3. Is there any other way to get resources other than the occasional mission and my little box that gives me some over time? Other than rares and treasure hunting, I mean.

 

[cdyhybrid]

The one you get from the table in your town hall is daily. The one you get from your head NPC (Rokhan if you're Horde) is apparently a weekly?

 

[ZenaxPure]

Yeah I'm really confused by this random Apexis quest I had as well. There was a goblin poster in my garrison that gave a quest to do a bunch of stuff at the ring of blood and I got 800 crystals from it and they mentioned someone was coming to my garrison (but I logged off before I could see if there was a new NPC in town).

Weird.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Oh wow, if there's a weekly quest for Apexis, I need to know about that.

Hopefully it's not PvP related. I fucking hate PvP. I tried to do the Ashran Quest for Apexis earlier in the week and got my ass handed to me for over an hour, even in a large group. And when it was all said and done, I had 6 of the 100 fragments I needed.

Trading post or lumber mill. Rares and treasure hunting is by far the fastest way to expand your garrison though.

 

[Dinjooh]

Stuck in Garrison so thought i'd upload a pic while waiting.

Beautiful expansion.

Excellent shot!

 

[Orochinagis]

I am in the part of the legendary chain that needs a huge ton of crystal things, how do I get them fast?

 

[Gentleman Jack]

I can second this.

Spend a day with the HandyNotes addon module for Draenor and loot all the garrison resources and kill all the rares. It's worth an assload of resources and beats the pants off the trading post/lumber mill in the early life of your garrison.

 

[Wunder]

Fuck yes 2000 resources, fucking finally. Guys if you don't get a Lumber Mill, then at least save your resources and don't spend em on dumb shit like Barracks Level 2 instead of saving it for Garrison Level 3. God damn.

You can tell the garden guy which plants to plant.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Are you guys sending your follwers on missions? Resources for their XP isn't a good trade is it? :/

 

[Dinjooh]

In the beginning I took all missions I could because smartphones taught me to. But eh, I just do resource missions now.

 

[dimb]

If you want legitimate returns off your followers you are going to need them leveled up and geared up. Running missions for XP still gives salvage returns. At a certain point you have a steady stream of resources and it's valuable to work towards strengthening your team.

 

[StayDead]

Just realised the 10th Anniversary begins this friday. Better get my mage up and ready for the sickest BG ever!

 

[JSoup]

Yup, but it just came back up it seems.
