Yeah, I wish I had been keeping all my 880 pieces from my main. But I didn't. I had been using the cloth ones to disenchant them. X_X

what is it with blizzards obsession with putting human dudes with elf women and absolutely no other interspecies couples in lore

With a lot of people talking about playable characters for the next expansion what do you think will be the chosen race? People think the Naga will happen at some point, if they do I predict they will get legs cause....you know, tails. Big snake tails. Or would that be eel?

How about demons? We got warlocks, shadow healers and even demon hunters and we kinda killed a lot of each....hell we killed pretty much all all types just about a billion types already and we know that which was evil can be switched. I mean, hey Death Knights anyone? Probably be layed out the same with you being pure evil and then end up joining the alliance or horde with maybe still evil or just chaotic.

I want Ethereals, but honestly I'd just like sub-races at this point.

Sub-races or just total customization overhaul. WoW's character creator is ridiculously behind the times. Imagine if you could make a dude who isn't a total beefcake, or a short draenei, or an unattractive blood elf, what a world.

Is destruction considered a good spec now? Or is shitty demonology still flavour of the month?

I see a lot of demo warlocks due to the skull which talks. Speaking as someone who played Destruction until four days ago switching to affliction is so much better. You can take down one or better yet multiple enemies at one time which is pretty damn important. I was on the border of stopping to play my warlock because having to kill multiple enemies is such a pain in the ass and takes far too long. Affliction though, no problem. Essentially it went from a slog to FUN.

You mean a human?

Is affliction good in mythic+ though? Or does it suffer the same problem that my shadow priest does with having too long of a ramp up time to actually do anything.
I should probably pick a spec before I dump all of my AP in to one or get a spec specific legendary.
 
I have no opinion of mythic dungeons or raiding with destruction warlock, but leveling as one is easy, and I could always take on multiple mobs. Immolate each target, channel demonfire, and incinerate everything with the cleave talent taken. Can take on the tough rare elites also, as long as you funnel health to your minion when low. Green fire looks nice, too.

Given that Blizzard botched Pandaren super hard (no representation outside of Pandaria or as any class besides Monk) and already has enough trouble fitting all their racial leaders into the story, I'd prefer they not make a new playable race.

I would rather they put that time into kickass sub races and a magical bow class (Void Archer / Dark Ranger / Shadow Hunter!?).

I'd agree that I much rather see a ton of new customisation for current races than an introduction of a new race. Likewise, I'd rather they clean up and improve existing classes than introduce more.

While we're on the topic of customization, what subraces would people like to see?

I could see:

Night Elf: Highborne
Gnomes: Mechagnomes?
Dwarves: Wildhammer/Dark Iron
Draenei: Lightforged

Orcs: Mag'har/Blackrock/Dragonmaw/Chaos
Forsaken: Undead Elves?
Trolls: Every tribe + the Zandalari
Tauren: Taunka/Yaungol/Highmountain
Blood Elves: Nightborne perhaps?

Resubbed a couple days ago. Broken Shore and Argus storyline/quests have been pretty damn good. It's what I wanted from Legion day 1. Hated its storyline during the leveling process.

Considering normal dungeons appear to already soloable with a decent geared character wonder how long it'll take heroic to be doable. One person already soloed a raid.

The Hand of Fate quest should automatically pop up for you. I don't think you need to complete the initial Broken Shore quest to get to Argus.
You do need to do the initial Broken Shore quest before you'll get the Hand of Fate, but if you've done it before on another char you can skip the scenario by talking to Khadgar.

Affliction seems fun. I assume I'm supposed to keep the reap souls buff up at all times though, which I have a hard time keeping track of.

Man, they finally updated the arcane mage sound design. It had been the same since vanilla. It's so much more satisfying now. Their class sound revamps have been pretty hit and miss though. Love arcane mage, but didn't like what they did to warriors and enh shamans.

For draenei I would love to have a Broken option to play as.

same
latest

would race change my shadow priest instantly.

broken were the draenei that i wanted since BC. Akama was my favorite character in WC3 and I was so hyped

then I got this shit
 
Yeah :/



There was a human/orc/draenei mix, but we don't talk about that anymore...

There's also that human having the threesome with the two Tauren ladies in Highmountain 😂
It's one Tauren lady, the other is male.

You can solo till mythic 9 with DH, monk or paladin tank at like 920ish ilvl

Strangely, the Broken used to use the Tauren male skeleton but were upgraded in 7.3 to fit with the Draenei male one. Hmmm....

And in case anyone wants to see a representation of the romance novels....

So good they actually used this very model for Marcus in game.

Includes the threesome with two beef patties.

There is a good joke that pandaren don't exist and some times, do wonder if they do. Strange since they are "cute" but they don't seem too popular.

Demo was never flavor of the month. It can do really good tunnel single target or cleave but target swapping is a pain in the ass unless they are standing right on top of one another. But Destruction is good, it has instant burst which is not possible with either Demo or Affliction and it is totally competitive.
 
Everything about character customization needs to be updated in the next xpack, IMO. Hair/beard styles (human males all look like 70's porn stars), skin tones, the option for upright orcs and trolls (bent over so far belts clip, and can't see tabard), horn/ear, you name it, it needs to be updated.

Don't get me started on how caster classes have these sweet artifact weapons that they never use, and they just updated caster animations. WTF.
 
Kinda been a raid-logger lately.

Certainly it's been rough after my previous guild disbanded, and I haven't really fully meshed into my current guild (besides it being Alliance vs. being Horde before doesn't help I think.)

I dunno, maybe it's time to take a bit of a break in the near future.

Been busy with a lot of school/IRL things to put in much time, plus it doesn't help that I'm getting excited about some EVE stuff:

The October 24 expansion [Lifeblood] (coincidentally the day Destiny 2 PC releases -_-) looks like it'll create some of the most upheaval the game has seen in years, with a complete overhaul of moon mining, including a random redistribution of the resources on the moons in the game. There's going to be a new gold rush as different entities scramble to find the most valuable moons and establish structures to mine and defend them.

Suffering From Success
Ventured into Mythic+6 Seat of Triumvirate today. What is that last boss even. Virtually no raid damage except for spires you soak or they raidwide for 3.7mil. Fairly fun otherwise.
 

Yes, of course different affixis have different difficulty but yes you can.
Mione soloed vault 17 and Court of stars 19 at 933. A good player can surely solo a 9.

I'm 940 pala prot, if my soloing urge comes back I could try some of them, I soloed all soloable world bosses in WoD before legion during HFC.
