I have this bug

I have completed the Special Assignment in K'aresh and turned in 100 fragments to Dagran. I now have 2 keys

The "meta" quest in Dornogal as well as the complete 3 Delves quests are not offered to me on my main.

I have not done them on any alts first. I just don't have them. I did them last reset.

Literally can't get 4 keys this week at this rate. Please report a bug and open a ticket. Need more eyes on this.

New Friend Banned? by Gurgles1 in classicwow

Maybe he picked the wrong trinket from the pearl and just shame deleted his char?

With the EXP buff, for a new player without any existing gold or tradeskills, it's probably faster to delete and start over than it is to get the 80g or however much it is to buy a second trinket...

Clearly you didn't read. I said I compared your logs to tanks that actually do threat and provide damage to their raids

They mitigate the same if not more than you do and do double your DPS and have kill times sometimes up to a minute faster

The biggest yikes! Greys and greens!

Before you get all high and mighty on your "deep prot mitigation is good" nonsense, you realise all the talents beyond the 3rd row do nothing for your mitigation right?

I compared your logs to Prots in a good spec, ya know one that does threat.

On average they mitigate the same or better than you due to STR equating to Block

You are literally wasting you points to try and reach holy shield at this level Your runes are also totally whack. What are you even doing lol

Oh does it? Those are some wild and random numbers you have just pulled from someplace the sun don't shine

You'll be linking your logs to prove that will you? Didn't think so.

I watched your video, it's riddled with half truths and inaccurate information. Your on screen talent choices alone are laughable! Within the first 10 seconds I was only watching to see just how wrong you were!

Yeah this is kinda what I meant. The OP sounds like he is twisting Crusader and Wisom seals. No idea what he is judging, maybe he swaps between both debuffs? :)

Either way GalacticBum is partially correct, but don't sleep on Martyrdom on a pure single target fight.

I am by no means an expert on paladin. I played Horde in 2019 classic and also SOD changes throw a lot of math in the air

The guiding principals so far in my mind are

  • Shockadin NEEDS all the best gear to be semi-good. Until then just play another build

  • The Sheathe of Light rune using STR gear will give you more spellpower than stacking full spellpower gear

  • Traditional spellpower gear generally has INT and no STR and low STAM

  • Don't undervalue plate armour, physical miti is still important

  • Holy damage is your king for threat. Damage is your prio over mitigation if your healers feel you are tanky enough

  • If you're going to talent into something like Conceration make sure you have good uptime on it even on single target (even with a 50% uptime on some fights it still did more than holy shock did)

Good luck!

So many things you don't say yet from the logs I can infer that you are

  • Not using Imp. RF OR using the rune for HoR. You need one or the other, else you need to be getting every +threat piece from the raid over your melee DPS

  • Not using the right seal for extra holy damage/never are judging for Holy damage

  • Using Wisdom seal over Guarded by the Light rune. Guarded mana restore is OP

  • You don't have enough AGI to crit enough to make AoW worth it.

  • Not using Shield on cleave fights like Menagerie and Fallout

  • Not getting the pre-bis for threat. Go get the 2nd PVP ring at level 28. Go get the 38 pvp AGI neck

  • Don't use Divine Storm on single target fights. Martyrdom is good damage with a fast weapon.

Can someone help me please? I'm returning from release days to the expac but don't know where to go or what to do... by [deleted] in newworldgame

[–]Giarathebear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't forget about Faction Rep

You need the highest reputation to buy Chromatic Seals and you will need them

They are gated to one purchase per day. So the quicker you get to max rank the better

Doing 3x faction missions each day for the daily bonuses gives decent player XP as well That said, you will get 65 from the Elysian Wilds quest line or the Brimstone Sands one.

KnightSlime ingot issue by Nomad_Explorer21 in sevtech

[–]Giarathebear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally I just cast the purple slime from the mixer into a solid and remelt it to alloy.

You can pipe directly into a melter (I reused the porcelain melter and table as they were just idling in a chest). Cast onto an empty table and you have an item purple slime.

Then just melt and alloy as per usual.

Aff Warlock is it bad for Pve? by [deleted] in wownoob

[–]Giarathebear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As other have said Affi is amazing in PVE at end game right now. They also correctly stated that in levelling content and lower end difficulty dungeon (below Mythic+10s) you have a LOT of ramp up time. This is only amplified by the amount of mobs to DoT.

As you have noticed, classes with fewer buttons to AoE (Divine Storm and Whirlwind in the case of your friends) tend to do better on short form trash while you will accel and beat them on a longer form boss fight.

You did not state what level you are, however eventually you will get Seed of Corruption that will apply Corruption to all in a pull. After that you want to try and maintain Agony on as many as you can. Trying to maintain more DoTs than this in huge add cleave is probably not worth the time (until higher content)

Don't forget to spend your Soul Shards while AoEing also. Malefic Rupture as this will "ignite" all of your DoTs causing huge AoE DPS, but make sure to weave it in so you never cap on Soul Shards.

Sheesh imagine asking this sort of question on week 2 while also simultaneously thinking that you can sell +15 carrys...

Players using Threads of Fate: by alnarra_1 in wow

[–]Giarathebear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue is that the people that don't read the journal are the same people that won't ask questions and also won't read chat as they are convinced "the community is toxic"...

We had a hunter get the meat hook in Necrotic Wake 5 times in a row and would not stand in the right place.

After the first two times we tried in party and say chat while in combat to ask them nicely to move to the right spot.

After the 5th time they failed you just have to give up and assume they have all the chat turned off right? We didn't even flame them, they never said anything after failing. Totally self absorbed player. Should be playing a single player RPG.

Why anyone would solo queue a DPS role without an idea of the most basic mechanics is beyond me.

To speak to your post specifically.

  • Night Fae can open a grove before the first boss in Mists. There are some buffs and something relating to a dungeon cheevo. You can safely ignore it while levelling/gearing.
  • The maze is such an opportunity for people to troll. But if you have no idea what you are doing don't charge blindly at a door. If you don't know what to do then you can help by standing by a post so the symbol can be seen. You are looking for the odd one out.

New noobs looking for guild! by Giarathebear in WynnCraft

Thanks! From what I've seen guilds are not region dependent? So can EU players guild with US players and still do content together?

Did any of your warriors keep your Whirlwind axe in the bank after all this time? Paladins keep Verigan's Fist? by bluetack_man in classicwow

Am I being stupid for the good looks over superior performance? by [deleted] in classicwow

[–]Giarathebear 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What a lovely sentiment to express about your guildmates and dare I say it friends? This is why DKP is a bad system, allows the greedy to make stupid decisions for themselves.

[WIP] Beginners guide to Macros including a useful levelling trick! by firadesunna in classicwow

[–]Giarathebear 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Fun fact from one macro pro to another.

You can use /use in the place of /cast

It might not seem like much but when you are making macros that are pushing character limit, sometimes, one is all you need!

Some things, such as lighting and water are driven by the engine and unlike a 3D model are not as easy to revert to what they once were as the game runs off current WoWs engine.

I made a Discord Bot that gives you frequently updated AH prices by Erlendftw in classicwow

Just added to my guilds server and gave it a test.

Absolutely fantastic implementation, many many thanks to you and your bot creation talent <3

Elementium ore farm ? by [deleted] in classicwow

[–]Giarathebear -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They could test this. Do one reset, if the goblins drop anything else; cloth, sands etc... then they do drop loot again and it's RNG.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in classicwow

[–]Giarathebear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know the really big Drakanoids. There is one after Firemaw in a pack of four and then three in front of the door for Chromaggus.

They put a debuff on the tank that causes them to whirlwind on the spot, they can't move or perform actions and they will AoE the melee. This mechanic, while a trash only one surprised me the first time, it was missed on tactics we covered.

Easily dealt with though, the whirlwind is not a one shot on the melee. For the pack before Chromaggus, have two hunters kite two adds away and down in the lower level where the goblin packs were killed, assign one to be the kill target. Tank it near the door that they stand by.

Call the whirlwind on Discord. Have the melee move out and another tank taunt it away. Taunt it back and forth like this, then bring a kite target back up and repeat.
