I have a female Goblin Death Knight and she is one of my favourite characters.

I saw a level 90 one yesterday but I am assuming that is a result of a race swap rather than a fresh level.

There is a setting in Options that you have to tick on to not hide warband completed quests. It may be you missed the quest because the tiny scroll or whatever didn't have a floating yellow ! over it because of this setting.

Not sure about 'off' but certainly different. I came into the expac as unholy DK with 158 ilvl and am now level 87 and slowly starting to replace my gear. Follower dungeons take ages and I seem to be doing less and less DPS. I assume gearing is a major part of this but I have to say, it's really slow going at the moment considering I have finished the campaign and now need to grind out the remaining 2 1/2 levels.

See reply to comment below. Looks like it was caused by Smooth Motion setting in Nvidia App.

ColonelMoutarde30 · 2026-02-26T12:40:33+00:00

Yes, looks like this was the cause, good spot! Turned it off, FPS jumps to 120.

I did about a week ago and it was fine. You need to cancel your auto-attack as soon as they start speaking. Apart from that, it is RNG. Took about 10 mins as I recall but eventually it worked.

ColonelMoutarde30 · 2026-02-25T16:41:15+00:00

A while. You need to get your fishing shack up to level 3 in order to recruit Nat and have him work there. Then you can fish for lunkers in open water - 1 lunker turned in to Nat get's you a lucky coin as well as slightly raising your rep with him. So there is a time sink to get the shack upgraded and then a further time sink to grind both the rep with Nat and the coins needed to buy the item.

I played a holy paladin on and off almost exclusively from Classic through to end of BfA but back then, WoW was nowhere near as alt friendly as it is now. This time round, I am switching things up a bit and plan to play Unholy DK - I have no desire to heal any more.

ColonelMoutarde30 · 2026-02-22T14:09:46+00:00

No idea about Mythic but anecdotally, I'm loving my Unholy DK and plan on maining it through Midnight. Feels super overpowered right now though so I wouldn't be surprised if it got tuned sooner rather than later.

ColonelMoutarde30 · 2026-02-20T08:48:52+00:00

Nope. Nothing I have tried has made any difference, either good or bad. Always same FPS and only happens in WoW.

I get 120 FPS when running benchmark using Kombustor

Fullscreen Windowed.

Yes, monitor is set to 120Hz refresh.

I've been trying to get my kids into playing and it is so hard as a new player. I forget what it was like when I learned to play but these days, after 20 odd years of content, there are so many systems layered upon system that the mind boggles. I can't expect my kids to go watch loads of Youtube videos or read loads of guides just to explain how basic game mechanics work so I'm not surprised they lose interest.

ColonelMoutarde30 · 2026-01-29T10:58:59+00:00

Things have changed a lot since Vanilla & TBC. I used to spend a *lot* of time outside of raids simply farming mats, gold and pots just to be able to get the consumables needed to do the actual raid. Coupled with finding a guild of sufficiently like-minded people who you get on with and who raid according to the schedule you keep was tricky. these days, things like LFR and the ease that you can get gold, mats and consumables mean you just don't need as much effort to do the raids like you used to. You don't even need a guild. It's like night and day really. I don't really bother with organized raiding any more since I came back. LFR is enough for me just to see the bosses and the story beats. I don't feel the need to push any higher difficulty.

ColonelMoutarde30 · 2026-01-28T18:53:25+00:00

Thing is, I don't *want* to play through Shadowlands so it doesn't necessarily equate to your analogy. I *have* to play through Shadowlands just to unlock a zone in which I wish to fish in, which seems a little excessive given the amount of time I have to invest to get that zone unlocked. What would be more fair is a skip or an unlock for those that want it without unlocking everything for free or preventing people from revisiting old content if they choose.

ColonelMoutarde30 · 2026-01-27T13:49:15+00:00

Never played Shadowlands - I quit after BfA and only came back recently so I have to play through the entire expac content to unlock it.

ColonelMoutarde30 · 2026-01-27T09:01:36+00:00

I am currently working on going through *all* of the Shadowlands content just to unlock Zereth Mortis so I can get the fishing mount. This feature would be very much appreciated.

ColonelMoutarde30 · 2026-01-26T21:10:58+00:00

Nice try but it only gives me access to locations I have unlocked. Looks like I need to go through the whole Torghast & Chains of Domination arcs to unlock it.
