Connected realms can do everything together, right? Share an AH, send mail, group up with friends.

You don't need to be in a connected realm to be in a cross-realm group.

I just mean connected realms are considered the same server in functionality, right? As in I have a bunch of alts filling up a server, don't want to delete any, so I can make a guy on a connected realm server and still send mail and all that as if it was the same.

Yeah that should be the case.
You can do the grouping on any server at all. Connected realms are literally just merged servers, the only reason they retain server names is so that people who were already on those servers can still have the same names.
Connected is ESSENTIALLY the same server in every way, make guilds, run mythic raids, etc.
One of my alt has not received a single mission to improve followers ilvl for nearly 2 weeks. Yet I still have at least one guy at 890.
It's really annoying... did I hit a bug or something? Trying to open a ticket from the ingame menu about this specific thing is not easy since none of their options has something to do with this.

The chance of getting them is probably just reduced because of all the Argus crap that can cost 1,600+ supplies, and you're having an amazing unlucky streak. RNG: The Game

The maximize map button now extends like 1/5 of the way into the close map button ¯\_(ツ_/¯.
Oh that explains it. Been happening to me all the time too.

The speed at which things occur now in 7.3 is kind of nuts. Hit 110 on my hunter and in the same afternoon I got the first level of Concordance on it.
Has anyone else experienced problems with the client freezing if you're applying lots of artifact power items at once on an old neglected alt? It has happened to me twice now. Even worse, now the client seems to be freezing on the load screen when I try to log in on the last alt this happened to.
Edit: Still can't log in on the character this happened to. This appears to be a serious game-breaking bug. I would strongly advise against stacking lots of AP at once lest this happens to you.

Nope. Everyone in the community thread is pretty much scattered to different realms/regions.

Should you change loot spec to get the 2 "easy" legendary drops from each spec? I received a fury legendary pretty quick after doing that on my mainly arms warrior.
Argh same here. I thought it was my map mods being stupid. Guess I should remap ESC instead of trying to click the X.
In the 10 years I've been on GAF, we've tried GAF WoW guilds numerous times and every single time they ended up fizzling out after a month or two. We're all just too spread out across various time zones, countries and the two factions to make a centralized guild work.

Yeah a lot of the T21 Normal/Heroic sets look pathetic outside of their Mythic versions.

Leatherworking craftable item is amazing at preventing this. Or being a tank since they rarely hit you and I believe Tank's cannot be dazed.
don't walk through where you'll get meleed, on a mount you're vastly faster, so thread the needle and don't get hit.

It costs less than 200 gold on my server. If you can't switch to a tank spec, this is the next best thing.
I went on a leveling bender and powered a fresh Demon Hunter from 98 to 110 in 10 hours with heirlooms. I could have done it faster, if I hadn't been picking herbs and doing alchemy fetch quests in Aszuna as well, but I got to kill two birds with one stone by getting two quests done in Eye of Aszhara simultaneously. And the leveling experience on US-Sargeras was very pleasant and trouble-free, since Legion isn't CRZ.
That together with the possibility of leveling a Death Knight with no prior requirements, makes it pretty easy to reroll servers as long as you're OK with only one choice of class to start.

All mythic sets for each class look amazing and the raid finder,normal,heroic most of them are bleh...
A new world has been revealed!
I still dont like how high the chance is without the item, its just an annoyance.
In case you don't go to the other parts of the forum someone posted a Explain vanilla WoW thread.
It's kind of fun for us old timers and for newer people their minds can be boggled at some of the strange things that use to be.

It's funny how many people entered when TBC or Wotlk. TBC had some strings left from vanilla not much but it was still there.

Put on your prydaz or get the leatherworking thing that stops that right?

It's more interesting to me how the narrative has changed as time has gone on. I started playing seriously during TBC and most of my friends who played were pretty happy at the changes they made for TBC. But talking to them now they fondly remember loving every bit of Vanilla. I remember a few specific examples but it's pretty funny looking back.
I think it's that a lot of people who started playing in Vanilla did so when they were teenagers and had ton of free time. These same people barely can find 2-3 hours to play every other day now and expect they would still have it in them to do the amount of grinding necessary to play Vanilla? Right.
People put up with all the backsides to the vanilla design, because most of it ended up contributing to a more overarching social experience, which is what made the whole experience worth it. You bonded with other players on a level that simply isn't possible today. It's the kind of stuff that made Pokémon Go such a massive hit, even though if you break it down to its pure mechanical aspects, it's a pretty unremarkable game.
Needing so much time and maintenance to for example form a group, get to, and complete a regular dungeon made it all a more memorable experience that you invested more emotion into. Queueing up for LFR, getting auto-teamed and teleported into the instance with 4 random strangers you don't need to say a word to, complete it all in less than 30 minutes and then probably never even see those players again, just doesn't evoke the same emotional experience.
There were plenty of great social experiences during vanilla/TBC but god help you if you had the nerve to want to play balance druid, ret paladin, feral druid or any other under-powered spec that you enjoyed playing on your way to max level.
You were treated like you were worth less than shit by the community (literally called retarded and laughed at) and nothing was done about it by the designers because warrior as the only viable progression main tank and pure DPS classes as the only good DPS was their vision for the game. Thank god Ghostcrawler became lead designer for WotLK.

The Highmountain War Harness needs to be BoA or something. That thing is beautiful, and I'd love to use it while level my tauren characters. Well, I think more of the cosmetic gear should be BoA in general.

Don't worry, I'm sure those totems will get made into toys at some point that last for five minutes and have 24 hour cool downs.
