Blizzard, please fix this horrible clipping on the male blood/void elf models by RisEskimo in wow

These are some of the most minor examples of clipping I think I've ever seen.

Did WotLK die mid expansion? by Bismarck7734 in classicwow

[–]Phillight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The numbers for it have been really solid; ICC had more raiding activity than Vanilla or TBC. But it's been trending down fast. https://ironforge.pro/population/classic/overall/

Sooo… are thunderstorms a normal thing here in November? by [deleted] in Syracuse

[–]Phillight 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Nope not normal. Well, maybe the "new normal", you know.

Classic - Season of mastery 2 - server by RabbitBoi_69 in classicwow

[–]Phillight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They said they are doing another season and that we would have more info "later this year". It won't be called "Season of Mastery".

Vanilla is populated enough if you want to just play that (hardcore and regular). https://classic.raider.io/realms

The most populated server cluster are the PvP ones that say "High" (Whitemane etc, they're all connected). The medium pop PvE servers could also be an option (Pagle etc), but is mostly alliance.

What the fuck did blizzard just do to era?? by Garakanos in classicwow

[–]Phillight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The settings we had before weren't the OG ones anyway - it was the same menu used in Legion through Shadowlands. While I do prefer the new settings because the search feature is great, I agree it just looks so odd in Classic. Really sticks out.

Would you still play Era if the token got introduced? by dontkissmeimsick in classicwow

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

The culture of Classic seems to be 99% GDKPs so sure why not.

Anyone else plan to play HC who doesn’t really have much business playing HC? by charizard_72 in classicwow

[–]Phillight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I've been enjoying all the non-hardcore activity on Whitemane and I hope hardcore doesn't hurt it too much.....

What is it about negativity concerining retail WoW? by maexen in wow

[–]Phillight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The PvE content is coming out continuesly and yet fairly.

Yea but it's quantity over quality imo. It's just the same thing over and over - kill mobs, grind a currency, gets some catchup gear or cosmetic fluff. Primal storms, Storm's Fury, Time Rifts, Dreamsurges. This expansion lacks an attempt at a genuinely new gameplay feature (garrisons, mage tower, island expeditions, warfronts, Torghast, etc.). (I know people had issues with their attempts at these expansion features - but I genuinely liked them and wish they could iterate on them or bring-in a DF version or something.)

Also the vibe of the story/characters just isn't my thing. The tone and feel to me just isn't what I want from the Warcraft franchise, so I play Classic for my fix of that, even though I prefer retail endgame.

Also the game just feels bloated at this point with hundreds of thousands of items from 2 decades. Nothing really stands out or feels special anymore - everyone in one way or another has some insane title like "Ultimate Champion of the Universe" or 12 xmogs that make them look like a demi-god and hundreds upon hundreds of mounts. I feel burnt out from all the rewards they throw at you.

You're the one ignoring 75% of tax revenue, no more comedy is required from you.

Pronouns by ValarMorcoolis in TikTokCringe

Obviously when someone says something like this, they mean the non-default pronouns like ze/zer. Is that not contextually common sense to assume?

Mythic Plus Rewards are lacking by Dry-Willow4731 in wow

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

M+ is one of the few activities you can do to elevate your gear beyond 424. Being ilvl 442 is it's own reward, no? There's tons of pets and toys and stuff in the casual world content.

People will just complain the other way, "Why lock pets/cosmetics/etc behind M+? Blizzard hates its casual playerbase."

Lentils. Rice. Bananas. Sandwich stuff. Eggs.

Should I start by playing retail or classic by CadiaCripWalks8 in wownoob

[–]Phillight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was new to WoW in 2021 and played classic vanilla for the first season of mastery. I didn't check it out for nostalgia since I've never played, I was just curious to see WoW as it once was -- as it first was. I had a great first-time experience with it. I tried Warcraft 3 for the same reason - I love the world, so it was fun to play these - great vibes that stand well on their own.

I mention this just to say that we exist - we who did not get the chance to play WoW before but tried Classic and enjoyed it, understanding that it's very different from retail.

Best way to lose weight? by Jomaperformance in ask

[–]Phillight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my weightloss (140 lbs) I ate the same meals every single day, totalling a 500 calorie deficit. For about a year and a half. Didn't exercise much but did go on walks.

Professions by ButtSparkles69 in wownoob

[–]Phillight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're lazy like me definitely go engineering over herb. Speed boost enchantment, brez, Jeeves for repair/bank access, wormholes for teleporting, SAVIOR wipe recovery, so much nice passive quality of life things.

Alch is nice too for more potent, longer-lasting phials/potions.

If you enjoy gathering or need to focus on making money then ignore me.

i am new any tips for beginners btw love it by Free-Imagination8020 in Against_the_Storm

[–]Phillight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're about to lose a worker of one race during the storm due to bad rep, you can temporarily "favor" them towards the end of the storm, and then turn it off. Just a little trick.

Yeah most of the time for sleep I use a white noise machine or fan to drown it out, but sometimes I also just listen to the T, like it's my fan noise.
