The fight basically requires an addon for it to be manageable
Not really. Blizzard raid frames show the debuff. Select a person with it and hit the extra action button. I've done it without the addon with just grid cause I forgot to turn it on a few times.
I have. It wont drop.
I remember getting the breadcrumb quest from the mage tower where the portal leaves you in Stormwind.
Anyone have any suggestions on the Druid healer proving grounds? Just having the biggest trouble with the 5th wave even on bronze. I've only recently tried it so half my gear is still aimed at feral. Is that possibly some of the problem? I'm ilvl 702 so I suppose the difficulty is maybe too high for my gear?
Either way, I'll be doing fine and then the boss type will do some huge burst damage and I just can't catch up..

Run a few heroics for 630 gear - Do endless healer 30 no problem. It's ridiculous how the scaling works in those damn things.
Check Caverns of Time or Orgrimmar. I know I had the quest, abandoned it and it wouldn't pop again from Firelands so I went looking for the next part of the chain and they had it up for me to accept

I can't wait to test Legion to see how it runs on my potato. With the new system requirements, I will probably have to run it at an even lower resolution (I currently play in 320x240). But perhaps some variables have been given new value intervals for more end user control. I uninstalled the beta client a while ago, so I haven't been able to look at new variables added.
You're not wrong, but I do like the idea of having required class abilities for fights like Mind Control on Blast Furnace. Maybe in practice it's not worth the added logistical trouble it puts on guilds like you're saying.
I ran that one twice. First time took 1 hour 40 minutes and was a wipefest. Second time my group had higher dps, a better healer, we knew wtf to do and it was a breezey 30m, here's my full clear of the Arcway, Prot Warrior PoV if you are interested.
It's not intuitive. I can't think of a single time other than that fight where you have to target another player and press the extra action button. It's a design failure that is trivialized by an addon IMO
Ooh you're playing my class/spec. Will definitely check it out!
Never said it was intuitive, in fact it's my most hated fight in the whole instance (Assault is a close second only due to boredom). I was pointing out that it can be done without the addon just fine
How many classes even have abilities you could design entire mechanics around though? Even something like the mind control example...it's really just a means of giving players a new toolkit, and that can be accomplished with the vehicle system or even the action button if properly implemented.

I remember reading that multistrike is being removed in Legion. Are there any other stats being removed? What will happen to existing armor with those stats?
Well the mc issue was solved in naxx 10 with mc crystals. Not that it is mandatory, but things like gorefiends grasp was close to mandatory to get a kill on xhul and mannoroth.
Perhaps those are better ways. Soft requirements like a mage or hunter being best for a job might be better.
Multistrike, Bonus Armor and Spirit are all being removed, and the are still tinkering with the stats on jewelry and cloaks (right now on alpha they have no primary stat).
I'd expect the removed stats will be replaced with mastery, crit or haste like when stats were removed in the past.

Do you get anything useful at the end of the Garrison campaign quests or can you freely ignore them? I'm low on both oil and resources if you get either of them, but currently I'm just getting gold as a reward.

Going to be running time walking dungeons if anyone wants to join me. NA server Alliance or Horde.
You get a follower, and some toy items along the way. I don't think there's much GR and no oil

Should be pretty easy to keep the group up with wild growth/mushroom and just keep HoTs rolling on the tank with the occasional regrowth. the group doesn't really take much damage on the Bronze trial. As for gear, yeah you should make sure you have intellect gear in the slots that don't have both agi and int.

Get Revered I think with Vol'jins Spear (or whatever the Tanaan PVE faction is called) and you can buy the oil rig blueprint and never run out of oil again. There will be a naval mission that nets you 400 oil every time. Also you should have a trade post where you can turn garrison gathered crafting resources like ores, plants, meats, etc into garrison resources.
I played their new progression server (Ragefire) for a bit, got a Necro to 49. Then I realized that everything there was to do in the end game was completely locked down 24/7 by an army of Mage botters all in the same guild, and decided to stop wasting my time.
They don't kill you precisely so you can understand them. Otherwise you might as well do normal right away.
Well, at least in this one guilds can request raid instances so you don't have Sleeper's Tomb 2.0
I'm going to be super disappointed if frost mages don't make frozen corpses now.
Yeah but they also don't do enough damage to care or even notice. You could just attribute it to some small aoe damage. Look at fel lord. The pillars and the wave damage is so negligible what do you get out of an understanding because of it? Do you learn that on any other difficulty the waves can't at all hit the pillars or else you're taking massive damage? Do you learn that you need to minimize the amount of pillars that spawn and having them spawn near each other is best?

It's not like normal does either.
Pugged most of HFC normal without touching lfr or having any idea about any of The bosses and nothing came close to killing me.
So yeah you might as well do normal right away. Its pretty much mop/cata lfr difficulty, its a joke.
But then again, why should it be hard, when the gear it drops is either shitter, on par, or slightly better than honor gear which you can fully gear up from in a day (trinkets and set bonus's aside).
They really need to drop a difficulty, they're doing a shitty job at sustaining 4.
Have you done the fight with IskarAssist??
Yeah, I have (also I hate IskarAsssist, the exorsus iskar frames are more appealing to me). There have been times when I forgot to turn it on before the fight and once it starts I couldn't turn it on, so I just did it normally, while healing. it's not that hard.
Arms should do this
oh wait that would require having a cool artifact instead of the shit tier human looking garbage valkyr sword we got
Need gold on Defias Brotherhood Horde (EU). Willing to trade pets from main realm, 1k~ or so from Alliance on the same server, or perhaps something different, I don't know.
Uhh, yes please.
At least arms gets that cool axe. Prot gets nothing weapon wise!

Gear really shouldn't matter on bronze, the WoWhead guide for WoD silver proving grounds state that you need ilvl615 or higher so you should be more than good in the gear department. Maybe just switch out gear that doesn't have toggle-able main stats and isn't providing you with INT.
Maybe this WoWhead guide for Resto Druid will help:

They can't even get relatively static animation to synch properly: see Garrosh holding that Horde general (Krom'gar? Grom'kar?) by the neck before tossing him off of the Tauren village at the end of Horde Stone Talon Mountains questline.
Just look for pets that sell for more (or around the same) on your new server as on your old one, buy them on the old server, crate them on the new, and sell. Easier than dealing with a third party.
I've been doing this for years, but wahhhh, I want the gold now! I did get a decent piece of slutmog, though. Should bring in some decent cash!

There's a lake in the Borean Tundra (Lake Kum'uya) with lots of fish pools and an INSANE drop rate for that Turtle. I myself had been trying for a long time to get it, and got it in about 20 minutes there.
Crazy. I think the Wooly White Rhino went for something like that on my server...
Sure you're not confusing the turtles?
Wow. I got one a bit ago as well, didn't even realize you could sell it.
Can't, bmah is the black market ah, the one were NPC's put up hard to get items.

I upsample from 640x480 using the cvar RenderScale. I have an Ati Radeon 3000 Graphics (256 MB) card, optimization is key if I want to raid.
This is what it looks like:
The UI is not affected by RenderScale, so text I at least have no issues with.
