Well this just happened, i'm happy
Still don't have a legendary. :/ Only thing I get from bags from world quests is gold.

That's a nice looking Dwarf you got there.

Anyone else notice they nerfed the amount of ancient mana you get in the vineyard? Used to be able to get 1k easily in a couple minutes but spawns seem to have slowed down alot.

Can't have people bypassing the time it takes to farm mana.
This expac is full of little gates, cleverly disguised.
So I've been doing holy for dungeons and mythics but main shadow. Read some very disheartening posts on mmo priest forums, is shadow really in the "get kicked because aoe is awful" state? I know they have crap aoe but I love the single target. On the few dungeons I was shadow the main annoyance was a knock back during void torrent which really kills dps. So what's the overall feeling with shadow, just wait for raids where we'll be needed for insane surrenders?
Gotta stop people from rushing through all of that.. "content" somehow.

Those elites respawn. Note their location, avoid their spawns in the future.
But, sadly, you gotta pop em all at least once to get their shit.
i play with an arms warrior who does shit for aoe but is godly for single target
i guess if youre in pubs they can be pretty bad so
I'll just copy what advice I gave to a friend:
Ignore the bosses
Check wowheads suramar guide for a list of their locations
Spec for hard cc and interrupts
Focus on killing mobs until you reach 425 score
For the wraith guys, silence their spells and stun the suicide
Don't use the aggressive mode unless the area is clear, it draws a lot of aggro
You can stun most bosses out of their withered killing shit
Go in with as much troops as possible
Stay away from ledges your guys can fall down and draw aggro
Try to get a few glittering chests when you're done racking up score, they give you special units in the future
And I'll add, bosses ranked in terms of danger, from most to least:
Furog the Elfbreaker: Can be stunned out of grab/stomp
Leystalker Dro: Can be stunned/incapacitated out of omnislash
Lapillia: AoE is much larger than the indicator shows
Volatile Wraithlord: Can pull away the nuke, and stunned out of the explosion
Brood Guardian Phyx: Cleave can be aimed away/interrupted, stunned out of Brood Expansion
I've never done Psillych so I left it out.

All good advice, but Dro is easily the most dangerous boss. His dash has a short cooldown, he comes out of nowhere, and he'll just fuck up your army and there's little you can do about it. I got to the end of the dungeon today for the first time despite Dro taking my entire army of ~15 units down to literally 1. None of the other bosses even come close to Dro because usually they can be interrupted or their most dangerous moves are far enough apart that you can stun them at least 50% of the time.
Dro > Elfbreaker > literally who cares, all the other bosses are very easy.
Dro can be stunned out of rush. And he's easier the more withered you have because as far as I can tell he targets randomly. More withered = damage being spread out.
I went into Dro once with ~35 withered and lost only 3. Also you should toggle the berserking on Dro if the area is clear.
Oh right, I forgot to mention you should try to pick up all the Mana expansion packs so you can get to 2000, or 1300 at the very least.

my only CC is polymorph and slow
Yeah I was considering how to do it on a mage. You might have to go Fire for Dragon's Breath.
On top of switching talents you might have to switch spec as well.

I'm pretty jelly, one of the good legendaries too.
You could try Mind Control. It's a long shot and it probably won't help unless your reflexes are really good but if they're vulnerable to stuns...

Dragons breath breaks so easy though. And most of the time they just go to recast whatever they were casting after the stun ends.
I think they're on an internal cooldown. Otherwise stuns would be pointless and I'm pretty sure they're not. Obviously you won't be able to stun every AoE (unless you're a Prot warrior) and you'll need luck/positioning to take care of the rest but it can save 2-3 withered at a time.
i killed him at like 800 ilvl as a shadow priest when i hit 110 on my alt, you just mind bomb kite nothing else you can do or just go holy or disc

The size of my WoW folder is now about 43.8 GB, is this normal?

Congrats! Super jealous. I'm hoping to get a legendary while it's still cool. lol

I've tried chain CCing Dro but he still gets dashes off between recasts/CC breaks. I've had more success just nuking him as fast as possible, and eating some army losses. The rest of the place is so easy it'll be fine. Last time I made it through him with only one or two withered alive, but still made it to the end with ~25 since there's so many more to pick up after that. Destro using either a VW to tank or Felhunter for some interrupts.
It's 12 years of content, the game folder can't be as "small" as it used to be years ago. Beside, 40gb is pretty standard for games nowadays.
It's not really easy as fire either. He hits like a truck and you have little ways to slow him down (you're not really going to use your hot streak procs on a flamestrike to snare him, are you?).
I guess so, someone told me the fix was done already.
Kinda ran out of things to do once I did all the world quests worth doing. Can't get any more rep with the Nightfallen, saved to all mythics. All I can really do is run heroics, but I don't really get anything worthwhile from them so that gets boring really quickly.
When are mythic+ dungeons unlocking?

Same time raids unlock.
Aw..
I actually like the kinda complicated streets, though I know my way around pretty easily now. To each their own, though, but I LOVE Suramar. Great city.
As for withered training, now that I have a berserker, oh god it went so much better. And now I have a mana rager. I like slowly building up this army.

Anyone wanna do Mythic Court/Arcway on Horde?
Next Tuesday.
The one after.
And you can ALWAYS run heroics and get upgrades, so 'nothing worthwhile' is silly, they're not significantly less likely to drop usable loot than mythics at this point due to the ilevel cap being so low. Similarly, world quests repopulate multiple times a day. pvp ones like every 4 hours, those give tons of ap. Speaking of, spamming dungeons is the fastest AP by a mile. Heroics are awesome.
