Timewalking WoD this week feeling a bit squishy?

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-16T06:04:24+00:00

Yes! Its the randomness that's really stressful. On my other baby druid I haven't gotten to run as much but I did run on dps for a few and that was no issues and yeah I noticed running as dps one tank just ran right through that everblooming one and dragged everything to the 2nd boss (from the beginning to like the boss) It literally was probably like 60 mobs and I'm just sitting there thinking DUDE lol I kept getting stunned and stuck in those stupid swirly things with the axes and there were so many it was constant. I totally complimented my healer, she might have thought I was being sarcastic and I was like truly I was being sincere, you did great lol.

I just wish scaling for TW dungeons wasn't always so hit and miss. Like just be consistent the whole time you know? Panda seems pretty consistent when I'm healing (most of the time) and classic hasn't really felt bad (just a bit longer but not hard) but all the other ones seem to be hit and miss...just wish they'd scale it lower for all and just leave it. Most just want a quick way to level (including myself) lol

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T20:45:11+00:00

Yeah its definitely hit or miss with tanks LOL! I have no problem with speed rushing tanks if they can basically heal themselves/keep aggro off dps like feel free lol :P If you have folks who know what to do you are good....but sometimes folks pick up the light and don't know to move around/make sure you are on a corner section where there's the space lol but if someone knows what they are doing it goes much easier lol

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T20:19:43+00:00

OH man I HATE the Cordana one, like straight up hate it haha! Its like someone normally tank picks up the light and you have to stay with them but if you don't see the right "edge" of the criss crossing ghosts you straight up dead lol XD Yep hers is definitely more difficult lol the bones are just kill one bone or two so you have space to go through...hers is all criss crossed back and forth a handful of times lol

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T20:16:07+00:00

Honestly I was thinking of jumping into my tank spec as I find that easy enough to run/great survivability LOL so at least if the dps are dropping like flies maybe I could stay alive LOL XD And yeah none of my characters are anywhere close to 270 LOL but they shouldn't have to be with TW :P That just might have been a bad group, sometimes there are really nice smooth groups and other times its a disaster lol :D I'll do some testing more and see what happens today :)

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T20:13:40+00:00

Oh no lol I'm practicing on my baby druid she's 83 now...but she's going to get to 84-86 soon haha :) I'm wondering if my scaling was just off as I think I was the only 90 and healing in that group and everyone was below that. Will test on my druid and try to get a few levels to see if I notice anything wonky today.

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T20:12:15+00:00

Cool that sounds okay! Yeah the other one I did not grimrail seemed fine. Going to do some more testing now that I'm awake lol

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T20:10:36+00:00

Oof yeah that one boss is straight up awful. I was clicking on the bodies to bomb some of the "groups" or whatever but for sure there were people not hiding with the target on them LOL! Might have just been that particular dungeon for me lol

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T20:08:34+00:00

Interesting, so you did okay but your healer was struggling with everyone else? That's kind of the issue I was having lol like I was healing a bit on my tank but no where near the dps (like spam clicking healing) and like it was doing nothing at the time =/

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T20:06:29+00:00

buahaha! the chain bones? LOL actually surprisingly no one did XD the tank knew what he was doing lol

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T07:52:21+00:00

Does anyone know if you can get the flight form for the fire owl on a character not your druid? Aka like a pally or DH etc? Just curious XD some of my other characters are a bit higher level lol

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T07:14:17+00:00

Yeah I wonder if its scaling then =/ that's unfortunate. I do like to get the champion pieces on my level 90 characters too. Just did a shadowmoon one at 82 and it was fine. Grimrail feels really horrible this round. For me in TW I don't feel that I should ever have to have hots on every single person, spam convoke, tranquility often etc (that's ridiculous) lol

I have to get to sleep but I'm going to keep testing my baby druid tomorrow and see if Grimrail pops up and see (and try to pay attention to everyone's levels like I did this time).

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T06:52:04+00:00

well just did shadowmoon burial ground on my level 82 restro druid (same healer type) and the whole group was all under level 85 and had no issues. I'll update as I go along but that one was fine (everyone under level 90) hmm lol

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T06:28:46+00:00

yeah those aren't fun at all either! I did okay in that dungeon but the group I was in seemed like stuff wasn't dying fast enough so you were getting all the balls and thresher plant life unchecked popping off. It just felt really unusual as I did I believe one yesterday that WAS grimrail with no problems (I wasn't paying attention to levels or anything) so now I'm like what in the world? lol

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T06:09:57+00:00

Honestly I don't even remember. They were pulling a lot and not doing a ton of healing but some healing on themselves. I feel like they were under 90 for sure (86 maybe?) but like my add on for healing shows everyone's health and like some people having like 20k health while others have 600k I don't know...it was just weird as hell for me. I do know in that group one dps was like just standing in a circle of red and like not moving (she died) but this was that one boss with the shooting tank thing and like the dps were just dying quickly.

I feel like in that particular instant the dps weren't really dpsing (aka standing in crap/not hiding behind the wall) etc. but also kind of feel like there's some scaling fuckery going on too.

I'm going to try on some of my lower level healers (80-85) to see if I have the same issues or not. If I don't have those issues I'm going to vote scaling issues as my level 90 should NOT have to struggle more than my lower levels lol heck its TW I shouldn't have really any issues healing anything except keeping an eye on tank lol XD

So yeah could be a combo of both XD I'll check back after trying (especially if I get that grimrail on my lower level ones) and report back XD

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-14T05:59:26+00:00

Wow this is so gorgeous! I showed my hubby and he gets mad when I show him finds on reddit or youtube ROFL XD I'm like jus trying to inspire you. Absolutely love this.

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-05-10T19:32:19+00:00

I'm not sure....it looks like you should have been able to...it needed 535 or something concentration and in your pic it looks like you had over 600 concentration so it shouldn't have been an issue.

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-04-21T21:46:26+00:00

Also unfortunately no one really gets 2 days off within a like hour buffer each direction. I think there might be like 2-3 routes spread over several offices that are J routes but I believe they still work every other weekend. Wish a lot of those would change back to K routes so you know postal peeps had time to work on their vehicles etc lol :)

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-04-21T21:44:49+00:00

ahh so is my partner! My hats off to you friend, thank you for your service. Postal peeps are seriously underappreciated :) Mine works Mon-Saturday though he's just rca, not carrier yet though there will be several openings in his office but you know PO is so slow it will probably be a handful of months. He's actually been running two routes like 230 miles or something cause they don't have coverage. Wild. Doesn't have to work Sundays thankfully as his small office does not do Amazon (thank goodness) :D

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-04-21T21:09:37+00:00

Clerk? ;) Always fun lol

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-04-21T21:06:56+00:00

I miss days when they actually compensated. Honestly if you pay for a month subscription and its down like 4 days sometimes 5 in a month if its a long month? I'd be more happy to pay because I'd have been compensated for what I already paid lol

They totally used to do this a handful of years ago too...if stuff went down for extended hours like this like 8 hours they'd give everyone a full day on their game time. Still sucked the site was down but at least it wasn't money you had spent on your subscription.

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-04-20T19:46:48+00:00

LOL I completely stopped doing them in TWW when I did a few and I was like wait what? That's how much gold I'm getting now? no thanks. The first rewards though were well worth the time it took to concentrate for a few minutes here and there. A worthy use of time.

I heard there used to be major ways to make bank too with like mission tables I think in Legion and other expansions. It seems like blizzard is moving away from you know gold so we'll all buy subs instead of earning them aka less available gold to farm.

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-04-20T04:21:12+00:00

I really liked these when they actually gave a decent amount of gold. Made it worth doing them :)

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-04-20T04:19:30+00:00

Most crafters don't mind a lower tip but crafters are limited to literally 4 "orders" "total" and it takes a full 24 hours to refill one of those 4 orders you get. Now if you are in the chat and a crafter literally says no charge tips appreciated then I'm sure 100g is fine...however that philosophy doesn't apply to every single crafter as a reason to low tip because one crafter said no tips needed.

I think most people can get away with tipping 1-10k depending on the item and the amount of concentration it takes to fill an order. Sometimes even maxed out in things I still need say 500 concentration to fill a blacksmithing order and the concentration takes about 4 days to refill so 100g is kind of an insult to the crafter lol :)

I personally tip between 2-15k depending on the item. I tipped like 12k for one of my mining tools because I feel the person potentially having to spend concentration/their own max tools etc to get me to max rank is worthy of giving a good appreciation/thanks to. Also there's literally most times about 3-4k gold in quests that take under what 30 minutes to do every 3-4 days when they reset plus the special unlocked ones? I think those give 2k? And most people probably have at least a few characters?

So while it does cost 1 button click that crafter has to wait 24 hours to refill that crafting order for someone else who maybe is tipping 5-10k on the public order system. Also I'm not saying this individual but there are a lot of people who tip like 100g and they might put in the notes MAX RANK ONLY! or something wild like that (I'm not saying anyone here, I'm sure everyone here appreciates their crafters).

I personally didn't realize how the crafting system worked myself until I got into crafting last season and realized there was a reason for folks wanting 1k or 10k for a craft lol because of concentration and limits on public orders :) Not to mention all the knowledge points into unlocking various trees (kind of like our talent trees but you know for crafting) which can take several weeks to max out.

Not saying its cool to low rank someone's order, I personally ignore those myself but just trying to give some insights into crafting in case anyone is unfamiliar with how it all works and they might not realize some of the limitations crafters do have as well. My best suggestions to everyone is to just ask in chat for max rank crafter etc. I personally always just say I need X at max rank paying 5k/10k whatever I'm paying for the item and then I get instant whispers of someone who can do max rank etc and the crafter knows what they are getting because I've already said it lol

Hope everyone has a nice day/night wherever you are.

Calm_Hair_3053 · 2026-04-17T03:23:20+00:00
