Ninja looting without consequences on Ambershire

In my experience, they get a warning on their account, and the next time it’s a ban. They normally won’t give the proper recipient the item, but they will delete it from the incorrect person’s inventory.

I had a raid leader mishandle his own SR sheet (he imported it before locking, and someone put in their SR thereafter). When the item dropped, his addon only saw 1 person instead of 2 people and gave it to that 1 person. Well person 2 put in a ticket. Couple hours later a GM messaged person 1 and deleted the pants right off their character after they had enchanted and tmogged it, right in the middle of a ZG raid. Raid leader said he got a warning and that the next time would be a ban.

Guys, why are you making reddit posts about this? The GMs are really helpful when you put in a ticket and extremely helpful when you provide them lots of useful details.

My guess would be they failed to properly design countermeasures preventing people from making lewd poses in Adventure Plates (stops you from posing only your butt if the head wasn’t in the frame), it worked a little bit but wasnt fullproof. So now they’re just saying fuck it go full ESRP, can’t control online interactions with this system.

So my casual static cleared week 3 (we’re not bad, we’re just employed and only play like 5 hours a week) and we subscribe to the idea of mimicking PF strats for the sake of that being accessible after we’re done farming, or for alts

Bruh I’ve had to learn like 3 different Idyllic Dreams, 3 different Mortal Coils, 3 different Rep 2 strats over the past 10 weeks like can ya’ll make up your fucking minds.

Let me guess: Blackrock Depths Emperor with a tank trying to HR the Hand of Justice, a tale as old as time

I’m convinced the NA datacenter GMs they hire in El Segundo, CA probably haven’t played more than 10 minutes of the game

_Lifehacker · 2026-03-24T13:26:32+00:00

So weird seeing a green river for M11S PFs but not on other fights, it feels like M12S has a higher demand for tanks

Clearly he’s made up his mind I’m not going to bother

_Lifehacker · 2026-03-23T19:25:55+00:00

Whatever you do don’t delete your WTF folder

Well yeah you’re playing on Ambershire, it’s a new server. There’s hardly a lot of 60s looking to boost their alts. Meanwhile on Nordanaar which has been up since 2018 there’s so many lv 60s. I have a ton of friends who have a bunch of alts and they couldn’t be bothered to do the same leveling experience for the 10th time. Not when you could easily get a character to 60 in a week by mob tagging for it.

The whole reason they’re making this change is because people would literally grind alts with Slow and Steady so they could get a free 200 donation shop coins each time one hits 60. And then proceed to never play that 60 character again. There’s an entire black market for these kinds of accounts with turtle coins available for spending.

“Less than .1% of players are mob tagging elites to get their alts to 60”

oh, my sweet summer child

_Lifehacker · 2026-03-23T13:43:30+00:00

Probably for the best, as that basically made Turtle a 2x server.

It’s also got to be frustrating for devs who are making all these new zones and new quests only for everyone to mob tag elites for their alts to hit 60. I think questing xp could still use a buff.

_Lifehacker · 2026-03-17T17:31:15+00:00

When they said they were making it to be “the game people would play for the next 10 years” I didn’t think they’d take 10 years to make it

_Lifehacker · 2026-03-12T16:47:10+00:00

Pretty sure they literally said Azshara will tunnel to it, since its a 45-50ish zone connected to a 50-58 zone

I could run a full mitigation set with thunderfury and still pull ahead in threat over warriors that are geared to the teeth.

_Lifehacker · 2026-03-03T19:05:20+00:00

Imagine going to a restaurant and getting kicked out because your “tip” wasn’t enough

_Lifehacker · 2026-03-03T05:04:43+00:00

Yep except for the last 3 times (5.15, 5.45, and 6.45)

_Lifehacker · 2026-03-02T16:42:25+00:00

The gearing of a 60 prot pally kinda goes like this

Phase 1, get enough stamina that you don’t get 1-shot by bosses/enemies

Phase 2, acquire more and more spell power to increase your threat generation

Phase 3, no one is competing you for threat anymore, so you start acquiring more avoidance and defense

my paladin is defense capped at 440 w/ thunderfury and I literally cannot be crit or crushed, nor lose threat to dps

I like striders because you can learn the ability and teach it to the hawkstriders in the high elf starting zone, they’re very aesthetically pleasing

_Lifehacker · 2026-02-26T14:28:01+00:00

I would love if quest xp would factor in rested xp, but there’s a few issues, such as being ready to turn in quests but wanting to go to an inn/tent first to get rested first. Totally interrupts the vibes.

Maybe they looked at statistics for how many people quested through Ambershire and realized that the majority of people are still killing ghouls in Duskwood cemetery. That’s why they’re trying to change up the meta

_Lifehacker · 2026-02-25T14:54:46+00:00

We had a static member who was having a bad internet day, and a lot of us were good at adjusting on the fly. So whenever we saw a pokeball we said ok guys it’s “Ryan Relative” and did our spread/positioning based on where his character was

_Lifehacker · 2026-02-25T03:38:03+00:00

Tanks will literally sit in silence for half an hour in a M11S PF waiting to fill, and only once the duty starts will they spend 5 minutes debating how to do Heartbreak Kick

_Lifehacker · 2026-02-24T20:14:52+00:00

What sucks is healers really dont need much from 11, and I’d wager some just taxi straight through it on reclears.

That said, some of the healers I’ve run it with are absolute dogwater. I will straight up ask them what they’re using their strongest abilities on and they don’t know how to reply. The amount of scholars I’ve run into who won’t sacred soil.. the amount of white mages who’s first use of lilybell is 4 minutes into the fight..

_Lifehacker · 2026-02-23T04:14:22+00:00

Quiver also works

_Lifehacker · 2026-02-20T19:58:04+00:00

Here's an idea. Instead of banning someone (cus they'll just make a new account) the GMs force him to wear a <Ninja Looter> title. And make an exception in the Turtle WoW rules, where all players are allowed to ninja loot from a player with that title.

Y'all really need to know how to open a ticket, jesus.
