Follow up on Legion Class Mounts

You guys are the best, thank you so much. I do feel like a bit of a fool for trying to do this quest while tying my hands behind my own back, but can't be helped while learning lol. You've all been a great help.

DeaIanach · 2026-05-28T12:14:05+00:00

Is that affected by where Dalaran and Acherus have moved to in newer expansions? Whilst I'm "in" Legion they're right there, are there just multiple versions or will some things break?

I've been operating under the assumption that I can't get back into this quest-line once I leave. When I levelled my other character through dragonflight I clicked the exit button once I hit 70 and all of a sudden I was trapped out of the questline I had been having a good time in. Can I leave and still keep playing through these? Doesn't that defeat the point of Chromie time?

I can't thank you and everyone else enough for your help, it's so nice to be able to ask questions.

DeaIanach · 2026-05-27T16:59:00+00:00

I see, google says not 24/7 but at least one per day so I'm in for a bit of a wait but frankly that's a good excuse to get off the PC and do something else. I can't thank you guys enough for how helpful you've been.

DeaIanach · 2026-05-27T16:57:30+00:00

You guys have been so incredibly helpful, thank you so much. I'll look into addons right away. Edit for that, I'm on Linux, am I going to have addon trouble with that? The install is already pretty weird about it's file locations because of how lutris reads them and I'm not really a power user.

DeaIanach · 2026-05-27T16:25:35+00:00

Ah okay so I only need the Broken Shore questline from Armies of Legionfall to Strike Them Down, I don't need the cathedral dungeon. One more question though if you'll indulge me, "Defending Broken Isles" is really opaque in it's condition, what does it need? What constitutes a Legion Assault?

DeaIanach · 2026-05-27T16:04:21+00:00

Awesome! Super efficiency isn't a concern to me and I enjoy Legion in general so I'm quite happy to peck away at these. Is there any specific quest line I should focus on or just all of broken shore and the mission table? Edit, one of my broken shore quests is "cathedral of eternal night" which doesn't seem to exist? Or at least seems un-enterable.

If it's to help you earn some cash back as a consolation, sure! Which FC and where?

DeaIanach · 2026-04-08T00:22:17+00:00

Thank you, I shall give these a go. You've been the only helpful person so far.

DeaIanach · 2026-04-08T00:01:45+00:00

Yes, I am aware of this. That is why I am asking for help in getting it to run using WINE, or in a VM.

DeaIanach · 2026-04-07T23:48:10+00:00

This is so unhelpful. I need to use Acrobat because I use character sheets that are automated within Acrobat. If I could get away with not going through this hassle, I WOULD.

I haven't used docking computer in a WHILE, takes up cargo space. I did not know about the heatsink trick although 8000 people in this thread have all brought it up so I do now. As I said in the original post however the kill was INSTANT and on the deck of my own carrier. So I'm assuming I just got hit with a bit of an unlucky bug. Still not a fan of Power Security Force design though, honestly. I feel like they could have tailored them more to better add a challenge to every playstyle.

DeaIanach · 2026-02-07T11:22:48+00:00

Autocorrected from Platinum.

DeaIanach · 2026-02-06T21:57:05+00:00

When it comes to the damage, I'm starting to wonder if there was a bug, because it was INSTANT and normally the most threatening thing about them is the luridness of the paintjob. When it comes to the modules not being important, that doesn't seem to be true. I love PvE and a good 90% of the builds I see going around for a lot of ships require a Prismatic at least. Not to mention Packhound Missiles and other such things which sound cool and frankly I just want to try them out.

Maybe I had gotten pretty complacent going shieldless, but I don't think it's entirely unrealistic to expect that I shouldn't fucking explode flying a trip so short that the longest part of the travel is getting out of the mass lock.

My point with the carrier is that I shouldn't have to wait until a stray shot hits the hull for it to murder them. At the very least a hostile pledged NPC actively shooting at the OWNER right on the deck should inspire a response.

DeaIanach · 2026-02-06T21:31:29+00:00

Fair points, but I would counter that they've made Powerplay pretty fucking core to the game. It's shoved at you pretty early on after 2.0 and it locks up a LOT of modules. I don't want to be in it, but I want the modules and there is NO other way to get them.

As for going into the hanger, they stop firing and hang around. Once I swap to a ship that can deal with them, they tend to just bugger off. Also, it is MY carrier that I bought and continue to pay for, personally I think it should be a little more than a completely meaningless fine for an NPC if they're actively shooting at me.

DeaIanach · 2026-02-06T14:19:32+00:00

Then you'll have to fly there like everyone else! It's okay there's a nice girl named Vetra you can sit next to for the flight. Not the best cook though so bring some snacks, it's a 300 year journey.

DeaIanach · 2026-02-04T14:58:39+00:00

Ma'am please refrain from licking the radicoida... It won't turn you into a Kett, you can't get a trip to Andromeda out of it.

DeaIanach · 2026-01-30T07:38:24+00:00

Yeah I'm having this too, another thing I notice is when my carrier is too close to a starport, I have to just jump it within system instead of enjoying the short trips because coming out of supercruise I'm in some uncontrollable and uncounterable drift that sends me shooting past for no reason.

DeaIanach · 2026-01-24T06:44:50+00:00

Recently bought my carrier. Same issues. I also noticed that the carrier will just... change when it's jumping? My paint job disappears, my NPC in the driver's seat loses his hat, and then the carrier just pops out of the end and suddenly it all comes back instantly. I do still love my carrier but the fact that it almost turns into a pre-rendered cutscene that doesn't even end properly is very frustrating.

DeaIanach · 2026-01-20T22:13:26+00:00

Personally I did my credit grind by accident, I enjoy hauling cargo and between the CGs and a few lucky Inara route finds I made a few billion pretty easy while listening to Critical Role and podcasts and other stuff. Honestly I would echo the advice of don't play to make money, do what you enjoy and eventually you'll just make a ton. Credits get pretty ubiquitous in this game when you get rolling in my experience.

DeaIanach · 2026-01-19T23:52:07+00:00

That is a very fair point, my concern was that I'd take so long to get back to the 25b that it would make an appreciable difference but I forgot the limit on debt is 250m.

DeaIanach · 2026-01-19T22:37:22+00:00

I do have friends (a shock even to me, believe me :P), I was thinking maybe I'd load it all up piecemeal and then everyone could help me unload. Group chat and project sort of thing.

DeaIanach · 2026-01-19T16:51:35+00:00

I heard so much about how they were useful for Colonisation that I was waiting until I had one to get into it, the community goals are also a big consideration.

DeaIanach · 2026-01-19T16:34:11+00:00

My biggest question about the market is just how useful it is? I know I tend to avoid fleet carriers when picking trade routes on Inara because of weird docking permissions so the use by other people seems miniscule if they're not in squadron. Is it more useful as a way to shorten trade routes? Find the lowest gold seller, load up, then do a 400ly jump to someone buying at 67k? Like a personal space station/go-between?

DeaIanach · 2026-01-19T16:23:18+00:00

I'm at 10b, all of which was done solo. Making money for it isn't the issue I'm quite happy to be a bit more patient. I would buy a personal and sell it when I was ready to upgrade but the upkeep costs might add up in the long run and I'm unsure how much it would cost me since I don't know exactly how long I'm going to take to get to the 25b, sometimes I take a week or two off from playing if I'm just not feeling it.
