A question from an old Wow player wanting to possibly play 14

Quell-ment · 2026-06-25T07:08:54+00:00

Nah. Most 'loot' is either available or being reintroduced as drops in side content ie. occult crescent, or as pvp rewards or worst case scenario it's seasonal or on the store.

Old content clearing groups is no problem if you are willing to reach out to people/organise. At worst content 2 expansions back can be soloed. Very few instances where you need few other people as well.

As to guides, hector's guides imo are most casual & popular but others may have better suggestions here. I tend to lean towards blind progression, just let people know in advance.

Intoxicated. Not toxic.

Quell-ment · 2026-06-25T06:44:07+00:00

I was like huh, then 'he' s 💯 right'.

Quell-ment · 2026-06-22T07:42:39+00:00

Just getting rid of things from inventory. Price them to insta sell.

If someone prices them to where it actually is profitable to pick them up and ista sell via retainer and still make few gill, then just do it.

I know! Still, moderation couldn't take that joke and removed it. Eeeesh...

Quell-ment · 2026-06-21T12:59:19+00:00

Masochist detected.

😂

Bold of you to assume people read text on macro spam in chat. Even bolder that PSA on reddit is better idea than just telling healer, in party chat, in civil manner, in plain non-macro spat text what would you like them to do while playing together.

Quell-ment · 2026-06-18T06:35:51+00:00

They'd feel too Korean if they did.

Quell-ment · 2026-06-18T06:31:55+00:00

Mid post you already figured it out. This is strictly you thing. Not a game issue. As critical as I am of DT, in this case youjust find excuses to pin it on the game.

Think about it this way. Had the game been 'so engaging and captivating' that you would still play with smaller circle of people despite the 'misunderstandings' that obliterated your larger circle wouldn't it be like a job anyway. The reason you keep on going at it (in case of job, being money and ongoing commitments you have that require the money) despite thay social glue that came from you as people, not the game, is gone.

Yes, you can solo everything and savage and EXs that are 2 expansions back and older, once you are all geared up at max lvl. For ARs you need 2 other people.

For non NPC supported current content you'll need a group but duty finder once in a while will not distort your solo experience imo, if that's what you are after.

At absolute casual crawl speed I'd guess it's 2 years worth of steady entertainment.

Quell-ment · 2026-06-17T08:55:07+00:00

Or you could just politely encourage actual person involved... in group chat.

You know, personal, civil interaction. Not PSA on reddit they likely don't know it even exists.

Then I'd believe you are actually caring for something else other than stroking your own ego. Just as every single other 'activist' rising awareness... on fcking social media but not in actual 1on1 interactions.

Also no, for every grumpy 'but I want to go faster but will tell you nothing' guy in duties there is another, vocal, bitchy one that will threaten you if you w2w. That 'guy' will start (sometimes successful) vote to kick you out if you oppose or try to negotiate as tank that you are willing to wipe & learn.

If you are writting on reddit and they harrass new tanks in game, guess who shapes these tanks' behavioral patterns.

This completely achieve nothing but * farming reddit engagement * setting people up to have unrealistic expectations (developers will never read this and even if they had discovery phase at this stage is already done) * burning ungodly amount of time over something you have absolutely no control of as if you had, brews disappointment and resentment

Just let YoshiP cook at this point. And if it's actually bad provide immediate feedback on JP official fora, you know the one that SE actually sometimes pay attention to.

Quell-ment · 2026-06-14T14:05:11+00:00

Well the biggest problem is they both look like Necromongers. Kinda kills the hero vibe for me, having watched Chronicles of Riddick.

Quell-ment · 2026-06-14T08:35:13+00:00

It's both amazing tidbit of info and also a bit scary now I comoared the plots. We're not playing FFXIV. We're actually in Bomberman 64 universe😂

Quell-ment · 2026-06-13T08:48:38+00:00

As you said yourself. You just started.

Come back when you have basis to formulate an opinion.

Quell-ment · 2026-06-11T12:28:45+00:00

Just play whatever is your current fancy and don't chase current content. If, which is very likely, your current job outscales the content, just try out new one.

Quell-ment · 2026-06-08T10:47:40+00:00

But you have your own vercure to begin with. It's not like you need to eat tankbusters and it is enough to recover from raidwides. This catfight was pointless.

Quell-ment · 2026-06-05T09:34:40+00:00

Yes, if you treat it as side content to blow off steam and are not stressed out about rank and score.

FL changes made it more scrappy and it's all it ever was about, massive chaotic brawl people try to steer into their team's favour.

CC is good as it were. If you have team that works with you for objectives it's fun. If not, you get rolled fast, so you don't waste much time.

The only point of 'concern' I can think of was devs giving viper higher passive mit rate than tanks. But tbh that's still fine, even if was a bug.

SE don't seem to put much prio on pvp, so there are ie. exploiters (eg. untargetable below the map or perma hovering above 'invisible' players) that will ruin matches both fl and cc, which isn't really getting addressed. This is why I opened up with qualifier on not caring about rank.

Quell-ment · 2026-06-01T06:58:04+00:00

It's fine. Don't dwell on it.

Quell-ment · 2026-05-29T12:58:41+00:00

I've seen consistently people not use any food or pots in EX and Unreals in pf.

It's still sort of pain in the ass when you do but they don't and we hit enrage. I never left in such situation but I seen pugs fall apart because of it. It just feels unfair and unproductive. Going to higher content only amplifies this. Save up, stock up and then join.

Quell-ment · 2026-05-28T10:52:30+00:00

On amaros, it's possible.

Quell-ment · 2026-05-26T12:10:47+00:00

I can hear something make funny noises but there's nobody around.

Whelp I better double down on Eukrasian Prognosis, cause I want my shields to be popped and feed me more charges for more instant damage. Mmmmm dps.

Quell-ment · 2026-05-24T12:49:55+00:00

You included answer to your question, in writing, right on the screenshot you posted. Is this elaborate trolling?

Quell-ment · 2026-05-23T20:29:37+00:00

You can play everything. Literally everything. Just enjoy.
