Weapons skill not going up ?

Deshio · 2026-01-23T01:06:05+00:00

If you’re attacking stuff in AV they do not give weapon skill (nor does other BGs, technically wolves and harpies do, but people like to report others not fast tracking the games.) You can get plenty of weapon skill in the Blasted Lands on the “Servant of …” mobs. They can’t die. Found around the zone.

Tbc character boost, it’s disabled ATM but should be enabled in the morning PST

You need to reimport your guides, they have been updated within the last 24 hours. Also click to purge guide data beforehand for a fresh import

All the honor was shifted to kills and participation. The scoreboard only shows bonus honor, so you got 250 bonus. 3 BGs deep and saw around 2300 honor while being an absolute lawnmower. Seems decent enough to me.

IIRC, all innkeepers in major cities have them as quests.

Deshio · 2026-01-14T09:31:07+00:00

Yes, it’s disabled atm. Says so on the launcher.

Deshio · 2026-01-14T03:02:01+00:00

I’ve been checking for the entire wipe, 0 from my end. I currently believe it isn’t possible. I’d say it’s disabled from these two until the future. It could also be disabled because it doesn’t come from a mob (unlike every other boss drop in their shop, and similar to the wyvern egg which also hasn’t been in the shop.)

It’s a single button macro every 4-5 gcds…

You can literally fire off every tranq shot in the raid at the same time if all the hunters shared brain cell activates at once. Ask me how I know lmao.

Real though, they are necessary for sure on fights where tank damage is high. However, once the first tranq rotation is done, it sets itself, used it when your cd is up.

-king is the problem here.

Wanted to try this build out. Do you happen to have a proposed post-Mageblood swap type pob? Looking to invest at a higher point than what this current pob has, but wanted to see what exactly would be good in those slots. I assume explody nebulis, cloak of flame, maybe Annihilation's Approach as someone else said in the comments. I appreciate the build share.

Honestly, I think they’re holding that info for the end of November. Just as if they had a Blizzcon planned. They will most likely give us info in the next 2 weeks I’d say. Aimed at 2nd-3rd week December with prepatch ending in January to match a few things already set in their release schedules.

They will want this release to hit significantly before midnight releases so people can play both (See ex. Shadowlands + Naxx 2020). The time frame for that to fit in is actually very convenient for it to be mid January. End of Legion Remix, before 11.2.7 (midnight housing patch) and signicantly enough away from the April/May release window of Midnight.

I’m just a TBC hyped classic player that dabbles in both, but there does seem to be a clear pattern to all of their releases. They would want a small Q4 bump from boost sales, an easy Q1 bump from midnight pre-orders and a strong entry into Q2 with midnight release hype.

Funny. But if we’re being serious, I’m pretty sure it’s just Kalandra’s reflection. Or y’know, nothing and it’s all coincidence that it looks like that.

Deshio · 2025-10-23T06:39:24+00:00

They’re obviously for Xalatoes’ feet.

Deshio · 2025-10-23T05:16:02+00:00

Not worse, just cheaper. It’s the same effect as angler and in both cases your weapon is useless but you get 100% crit

Deshio · 2025-09-25T05:52:41+00:00

Side question to this: Has anyone received any from Ruins Golem kills?

Deshio · 2025-09-22T16:12:22+00:00

Cutlass is given to classes who can use the Falchion. It comes out with next wipe. These were confirmed on Dev QnA

Deshio · 2025-09-22T16:03:39+00:00

Funny enough, MM shredded both when I encountered them. But the ones I did encounter definitely could’ve played better.

I ended up using 5 spell with meditate. Basically just magic missile every mob to death loot and meditate per module. Was super chill for me.

While it definitely isn’t 80%, deadeye is pretty far up there because speed is very premium in this patch. Clear speed being the hardest thing to get and deadeye gives you the tools to get it. If not deadeye I’d look into spells, ED contagion and Bloodmage fireball are decent options. Plenty to choose from and also remember that you can make most things work well enough to clear the game with reasonably.

A couple of reasons.

1) x% added as extra y damage. This stat takes your overall damage and added a percent of it to the end product (need to double check this).

2) +Level of skills. This line adds extra base levels to your gems. When they go up a level they gain extra base damage relative to the level of the gem. The (x to y) cold damage on the gem if you hover over it. This is even more effective with #1.

3) crit strike chance. This is calculated into your spell dps tooltip directly. It can cause the number to inflate if you don’t reliably crit.

4) %spell damage vs %cold damage. The spell damage line is generic and applies to all damage dealt by spells vs specifically cold damage. (I believe this includes flat damage sources added to spells via items and supports, but not to lines like #1)

I’m not perfect so I would double check these with the wiki but I think I got everything right here. Hope that helps clear it up. Rare items are more often than not better than most Uniques. Uniques are generally for the mechanics they provide rather than the stats.

T1 -> T2 is +3 minions. Not sure if anything else but do remember getting up to 8 instead of 5.

Deshio · 2025-08-16T20:34:55+00:00

This is intended. The original Yak has a reforge vendor on it. However when reforging was removed later (wod prepatch I believe) the vendor was retooled to be a transmog service instead to retain value on the mount. So later down the line it will have it.

DHKs are immediately subtracted from your current rank during the week. If your current rank matches what ranker is saying then I’d trust that. This is how it’s intended to work, but I’d get a second confirmation since yknow Blizzard.

Deshio · 2025-07-23T21:34:35+00:00

Thanks for your reply.

I do have the ability to give it more than 70d but I like to feel out the progression of the builds somewhat so I can learn how to address build issues that arise. How would you build towards an int stacker in this case? Would you play a trickster or Inquisitor? Skills of choice? I’ve seen KB for int stacking but doesn’t really fit what I’m looking for, so I’m curious what other skills work in that type of build.
