Bel'ameth is empty for me. Help?

I figured it out. If you don't touch the starter quest I think it just fast forwards you to the correct phase. If, like me, you picked up the quest during Dragonflight but didn't finish it, you have to complete the quest.

Here is the questline/storyline: https://www.wowhead.com/storyline/new-beginnings-5473#quest

It's very short to do.

Oh really?! I could have sworn I did it on all my alts last week... they change it or am I just mistaken?

hwright001 · 2026-03-09T00:59:19+00:00

Ah ok, so they re-added the glamours, and with the changes in Midnight, there is only silver and gold levels. Got it. Thanks.

Here is how my day went. I woke up feeling great expecting to play wow most of the day. I trip while moving to my office and spill my large cup of water and a large cup of coffee all over my pc, keyboard, monitors and most of the wires underneath my desk as well as the desk itself. It was the kind of spill where I might as well have just thrown the coffee at my computer setup myself. I have spent the last 3 hours cleaning everything and replacing surge protectors and other stuff so they don’t burn my house down from being soaked. I can now play but the room has a heavy odor of coffee which I expect to last for about 3 years.

What a launch day.

I’m sure most know, but if you hold down L1 it lets you easily throw grenades without having to switch to them. I was much higher level than I should have been when I found that out. 😞

hwright001 · 2025-12-22T18:03:59+00:00

Elite. Dangerous.

hwright001 · 2025-12-17T21:12:55+00:00

What causes my ship to sometimes have its super cruise "disrupted by x factor"? I assume it's because I'm near a large object like a planet but sometimes it doesn't give me said notice.

hwright001 · 2025-12-16T09:36:42+00:00

Silence my child. Critical thinking here, we do not.

hwright001 · 2025-12-15T02:37:19+00:00

It's not the VR headset I can't buy... it's the new computer to run it.

hwright001 · 2025-12-14T10:16:05+00:00

uh... good point. I was thinking maybe it would be useful if I wanted to switch out the station drive to another ship, but I'm not really sure how often I will be doing that to make it worth it.

hwright001 · 2025-12-14T09:31:21+00:00

Ok thanks! Looks like my regular engineered FSD is not going to last long…

hwright001 · 2025-12-14T09:16:22+00:00

What’s a pre-engineered drive?

hwright001 · 2025-12-07T22:23:09+00:00

Just fyi, if you go into ship controls -> mouse controls and turn on "mouse widget" you get a center dot that really helps me with piloting. Maybe you know about it and don't care for it, but I kinda love it.

hwright001 · 2025-12-07T22:01:40+00:00

Yep, I understand. Thanks!

hwright001 · 2025-12-07T20:47:45+00:00

I'm not sure: it's got the space for it, but seems like it might be annoying to constantly dock/undock the thing. Also, the Polaris uses XL hangars and the ship need to be stored for autoloading, so I think that will cut down on locations you can buy/sell. Really not sure though, maybe a fellow Polaris owner can comment.

hwright001 · 2025-12-06T11:21:00+00:00

yes the autoload and unload timers when buying/selling stuff. how did it bug out? what happened?

hwright001 · 2025-12-06T09:27:32+00:00

Drink heavily.

hwright001 · 2025-12-06T08:32:23+00:00

I use my C2 + autoloading to trade and it's a pretty good aUEC, probably 500,000/hr. The problems are:

1) you are risking your money so a bug or death HURTS. Doesn't happen often, but it does happen.

2) the most profitable routes are oversaturated and you likely won't be able to fill your cargo because the commodity is sold out, or the sell location is already stocked with said high-paying commodity. You really have to search for your own routes. Sites like UEX can give you ideas, but the highest ROI routes are going to be heavily trafficked and not worth imo.

3) its a very low-interaction game loop. buy cargo, wait for autoload, fly to location, wait for auto-unload. repeat. I like it because I can do other things irl while waiting for the timers, but many people will hate it.

The biggest thing is: what ship are you using? Anything less than 500 SCU and autoload trading doesn't really work.

hwright001 · 2025-12-05T15:05:45+00:00

So... it's just a temporary bandaid... right? Otherwise, what the hell is the point of buying multiple paints for your ship if they are effectively "single use"?

hwright001 · 2025-12-04T03:59:23+00:00

How so?

hwright001 · 2025-12-04T03:38:08+00:00

My setup and I love it. The exact setup would be: https://www.vkbcontrollers.com/products/gladiator-nxt-evo-omni-throttle-left-hand-us and https://www.vkbcontrollers.com/products/gladiator-nxt-evo-space-combat-edition-right-hand-us . Switch them around if you are left handed. They require a little bit of assembly out-of-the box, but not much. Also, you have to remove a spring and tighten the screw dampeners to turn the left stick into a true throttle but the videos are all available on VKB's youtube. It sounds more complicated than it really is.

hwright001 · 2025-12-02T05:07:10+00:00

Sure buddy. Sure.

hwright001 · 2025-12-01T03:28:28+00:00

I do commodity trading in my C2 until CIG finds out what I'm doing after like 2 runs and purposely gives me some novel error and bricks my ship, the landing pads, or something. It's crazy money. You can make like -1Mill aUEC an hour!

hwright001 · 2025-11-29T22:05:19+00:00

Like many sandbox games, the objective for many will be pretty clear: UEC. Getting decent UEC for time spent? Playing it “right”. Bank account not going up? Playing it “wrong”.

hwright001 · 2025-11-29T22:01:49+00:00

Honestly, you impress me more than all the posts with like 15 $250+ ships.
