World of Warcraft |OT9| People still play this? Isn't it from 2004

Looks like some parts of the patch is being delayed for EU.

Probably because the amount of bugs that are being found is bordering on silly.

So finished the quest to get the ring, except I skipped Curator because Karazhan can reset itself. Found a group that was one boss ahead of Curator so I finished from there, then did Curator to finish the quest.

Problem is, you can only turn in the quest to Khadgar ALL THE WAY AT THE END OF THE DUNGEON. Zoning in, I can't go pass the mana wyrm boss, he is still spawned there and I'm small.

fml.

Got the Crit/Mastery plate bracer from the Ettin world boss which was a nice upgrade over the one I was wearing. It didn't warforge but it did come out with a socket. Just right after power went out so I'm probably dead now.

860 frost relic from world bos on the druid, continuing my streak of loot from world bosses

A rare sight for you all, but I'll admit I was wrong and the frost buff was pretty solid, even compared to the superior spec. That said, it also has little room to grow without swapping talents back, the resource flood with attenuation and obliterate instead of FsC is real as fuck. impossible to spend it all.

Am I correct in assuming you can't continue the Suramar storyline without first having killed Xavius in some form? That seems extremely fucking stupid in an expansion where they have tried to create alternate pathways for people who can't raid. Really, really stupid.

That's what LFR is for.

There's no such thing as a person that 'can't raid'
That hasn't been a thing for 3.1 expansions.
It takes less time to queue up and kill xavius than it does to run Violet Hold. A lot less.

It's available to do through LFR. You can queue for the last wing of EN LFR, which is just Xavius. It's quick and easy.

Now, certain other quests can't be done in LFR. Those are going to take a bit more work. I doubt any have to do with Suramar though.

seeing alot of 845+ on world quests, is that new? was always just 840+ before

Yeah, WQs got a base +5 boost to coincide with the opening of Kara and (though it's not open quite yet) the new raid.

Hooray for Murloc Battlemasters and Sul'thraze achievements, but HOW IS COLLECTOR'S EDITION: PANDA NOT FIXED YET!?

I did two of them this morning and both gave me Versatility that I won't use despite having 840 items. I really hate that stat. Give me anything but that.

I am gonna run mythics till I puke this week.

It's actually a little annoying that we get the easiest mythic+ affixes ever on Karazhan week. I want to do both.

Guild found like 11 legendaries yesterday. I think 5 in the raid alone and we didn't even get heroic cenarius/xavius down yet. Safe to say they either did something to the drop rate or the 'failsafe' kicks in on reset day.

my friend just got his first legendary and he screamed on discord. quite funny :p

edit: are there supposed to be quests around Kara? I dont see any. I got the attunement one from Khadgar tho

Yes theres a few quests after finishing he initial 4 mythics (specific ones, not weekly quest).

Can anyone confirm Karazhan is not on EU yet?

I haven't really worked on getting my professions to 800 in legion apart from fishing and archeology, since those go up by themselves. Seeing stuff like a rank 3 engineering recipe not being a 3x or 5x skill gain per craft when it's deep orange (I only have 707 engineering) really sours me.

Blizzard: "We're seperated normal Mythics from Keystone mythics in the group finder"
Fucking morons: "We'll list our normal Mythics in the Keystone section because we're desperate and stupid"

Was encouraged to hear about the increased legendary drop rate (anecdotally) here. I didn't get a chance to play yesterday but checked my guild's news out. Not a single one dropped for us on a full normal EN, three bosses of Mythic EN, and probably two dozen Mythic 5s.

Lol

I'm still without one as well. Our guild of like 60 players probably has 12 total now. Two players have two each. Sigh.

Got 2 of the mythics done for karazahn attunement last night. Anyone finished Kara yet? Seems like they upped the difficulty from the PTR according to general forums.

  • Three WQs - nothing
  • World Boss + Coin - nothing (4-5 weeks in a row)
  • Class hall chest - same item
  • Legendary - none

BTW does the Sign of the Warrior dungeon bonus (extra loot per last boss) work on Mythic+?

We cleared it last night, group around 865 iLvl

One shot about half the bosses, couple wipes on the other half, four wipes on last boss

It's not too crazy, and TBH the gear is almost entirely lackluster

Worried about trying to find a pug for it. I am 850 ilevel and could actually use the loot out of it. People will most likely be looking for 860+ for pugs.

My 880 chest item this week was like a versa/mastery cloak >_>

3% upgrade, so says my stat weights, but I refuse to use it.

Oh and this is my slutmog currently btw:

Mostly did it to amuse myself. Was rocking Ulduar rogue set for so long.

I have a group of similar item level that runs high level mythic+ constantly, I'm not expecting to have a lot of trouble in there. Hope Nightbane gets figured out soon as a tough 5-man boss with 875 rewards sounds right up my alley.

As for the gear most of it is useless but I feel like there's definitely some attractive drops in there. There seem to be a lot of relics as well and that's something I'm severely lacking in. I still had an 850 Blood relic in my primary DPS spec until last night, and I have similarly bad relics in my tank spec.

Most importantly the strength/stacking crit DPS trinket off the end boss looks extremely good. There's no way that isn't BiS for Unholy on single target fights. Plus a guildie mentioned that Nightbane apparently has something that buffs any items with the 'raven's mark' flavor text and that's one of them.

Our healer was pretty stoked about a set bonus that gives you a 2 minute 10% damage/healing buff on killing a dungeon boss. The set items have garbage stats for me but as a mythic+ runner that sounds really fun.

Took me close to ten minutes to get the next set of quests at Karazhan, due to a Combination of the lag of so many people, the frame rate cratering due to all the Horde players AOEing the area, and dying about a dozen times.

What the hell, Blizzard.

And yes, I realize "Pvp on a pvp server", but this isn't PVP, its wholesale slaughter. Its a god damn meat grinder.

edit: Ah damn it, there's a third quest? Time to go back into the grinder...

Is there a gate in front of the new entrance that you can't open in combat? Because if not, then it's not really kara on a PVP server.

just bought like 40k order resources for my main and alts

I'm liking this blood vendor

Yeah I'm seriously considering doing that even though it feels like throwing away gold.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
Just watched the Nighthold end cinematic that got datamined in 7.1 Shit is pretty fucking hype.

Didn't play much last night so I'm not Kara attuned yet. Still have 2 mythics to do.

im not playing my BM Hunter anymore these days but they made it so mimiron in your class order hall can change Hati back to her original look, for those like me that never used the transformation thing because you couldnt change her back

edit: LFR wants nothing to do with Drood this week ;_;

Looking at warcraftlogs from the last day pisses me off so much as an Unholy DK.

For weeks there have been well argued and reasoned feedback to blizzard about our situation. And all it amounted to was a single miniscule buff that does almost nothing to help any of our problems.

Meanwhile Frost got a ton of buffs and are now pulling even, or ahead on pretty much all the bosses in EN...

I have never been more frustrated at blizzard's class balance handling that this past month. I really feel like blizzard just have no idea what they are doing. The near complete lack of changes to unholy in 7.1 is just something I cannot understand even remotely. It flies in the face of how they said they would handle spec balancing within classes.

My guild finished Heroic Xavius off last night. I feel like the gearing and progression curve was pretty smooth on this. We spent a long time getting Heroic Cenarius down and a decent amount of time on Heroic Xavius, but now that we have all of the mechanics down I think we will be able to farm them easily. Debating if we want to move on to mythic or just wait for Trials of Valor.
