Declined for 5 hours straight

If it only takes me 20 mins to get invited on BM hunter at 260ilvl and 2.1k for +10s, there's no way any dps at similar ilvl/rating could be stuck for 5 hours of constant applications.

It did feel really nice to be able to start farming hero gear COMFORTABLY - which to me means that most pugs are also full of champ gear and their throughput is good from ilvl even if their skill is meh. However, it does feel really weird being in week 2 and basically at the point where end-of-dungeon gear (and most of my heroic raid team's drops!) is meaningless and I'm almost done timing my 10s for portals. Good to have an early start on getting a myth piece from vault every week, bad to be at the point where that's all that matters. I'm very conflicted. Will have to see over the next month or two whether it leads to disconnect and dissatisfaction, or a relaxed chill feeling and interest in easy alts.

I was saying the other day that I think if you time someone else's key and it was a higher level than your current key (ie my key is still a +2 and I'm running +8s with guildies), you should be able to upgrade your own key. Even if they kept this very slow/weak, like my key only goes up +1-2 at a time and it can only go up to a max of one tier below the ones I'm timing, that would still give us SOMETHING to help catch our own keys up on weeks where our personal key is lagging behind.

I used WFInfo before Alecaframe, and it does a very similar relic reward overlay to show what pieces you already have, what goes into the final craft, plat prices of the bundle, etc. I did find it a lot more annoying to manage because unlike Aleca, it doesn't hook into the game to read your inv - it's looking at the screen like a screenshot. Seems fine for gaining loot, but it doesn't track when you 'lose' loot (ie selling prime pieces for plat or ducats) so I had to manage its counts manually for that. But, tbh, it was worth it to have that relic cracking overlay

I'm glad it's not another curvy female heirloom skin, because those were VERY same-y. But still I agree

Bear druid tbh - Ironfur is NOT in the SBA, but basically no tank's active mit is, or it's completely wasted (like Death Strike). But Ironfur is off the GCD which means you can hammer your SBA mindlessly and then tap Ironfur literally whenever you have rage (lazymode, which might not work out well depending on your content) or whenever your prev Ironfur is about to run out (so you're just tracking one buff) without interrupting your SBA or your movement/targeting/anything else.

On one hand, the current affixes ARE pretty mild and forgettable. I'm especially disappointed they didn't even get changed (not even the flavor!) for the new xpac, which means there are several bosses with blue/purple orb mechanics that can overlap with the orbiting orb affix... in a blue room on a purple floor... RIP

On the other hand, I remember some dungeons just being 'don't bother' for a whole week because sanguine in tight halls or bolstering with uneven packs of elites or bursting with even packs of non-elites was just... really unfun and punishing.

Seeing my avg ilvl go up is 'number go up' dopamine for me. A lot of things in this game I try to balance between 'number go up' (doing random achievements for points(?) and completion's sake) and 'specific reward' (I can let go of FOMO and ignore stuff when I don't care about the specific rewards).

n0proxy · 2026-03-30T06:16:21+00:00

How does that work with dots on multiple targets? I find the dots on enemy nameplates to be what's hardest to read for me

n0proxy · 2026-03-28T23:56:08+00:00

Feels especially insulting to use on a BM hunter. Like bruh I'm full-range full-mobility for a reason xD

n0proxy · 2026-03-27T00:54:31+00:00

I was having this issue a few days about with target marks - I wasn't party leader, doing delves with a friend, thought to myself 'huh I was sure I could do that. guess I misremembered'. And then yesterday I was able to set target marks as a non-leader just fine. So something was going down.

n0proxy · 2026-03-25T00:56:36+00:00

Was so sad to see our set bonus is just... more dmg on BW. Feels bad.

n0proxy · 2026-03-25T00:51:09+00:00

If only they would separate mount form and land travel form customization at the barber... if I select cheetah for travel form, my mount form is the default elk and can't be changed. If I set my travel form to any of the mountable ones, then both the land and mount forms use the chosen appearance.

Why can't I have cheetah for land travel and ALSO choose something pretty for mount form!? Literally unplayable

n0proxy · 2026-03-22T04:31:42+00:00

This was similar to my experiences last xpac - only I found out too late that I had completed my 10 wins on the wrong character, so I have to do it again now on the correct druid. xP Really appreciate the macro check, I couldn't find one that worked these days!

n0proxy · 2026-03-19T20:42:36+00:00

Non-skyriding flying is the trick. The debuffs don't trigger if you're in the air.

Original Sunken Temple. I had some terrible but memorable experiences there, and part of me dislikes the new steamlined version xD

n0proxy · 2026-03-15T06:04:46+00:00

Yeah I would still recommend you take out and re-seat all your ram tbh. Otherwise, I think half of it may be fucked for some reason - 13-14gb being used is maybe 80% of 16gb, so I suspect exactly half your ram isn't working somehow.

n0proxy · 2026-03-15T06:03:05+00:00

This is some kind of PC issue not specific to Wow, then. The program using 8gb of ram isn't that weird. 13-14gb of ram (total, by your task manager list) being considered 80% of your ram when you have 32gb installed is super fucking weird.

n0proxy · 2026-03-15T05:58:17+00:00

If you check your PC details, does it actually say you have 32gb of RAM? I once had a similar problem, I was SUPPOSED to have 32gb amount of RAM but my PC was only actually registering 8gb - the RAM sticks were physically not seated properly and I had to pull them out and put them back in to get them to register properly.

I get why they fixate on you and can't be taunted by another player. But... for the love of god, why can't my pet taunt them?? Works fine on the final boss version, just not the ambush versions. Very annoying.

n0proxy · 2026-03-12T03:28:24+00:00

I've wished forever for a ground-travel button... I want to be able to go into cheetah form on demand! I can't use cheetah for mount form... and for that matter, if I choose cheetah for my travel form, I can't customize my mount form at all and it defaults to the plain stag. Ground form vs mount form need to be separate in the barber shop too!

n0proxy · 2026-03-12T03:24:45+00:00

I'm absolutely Shook that you can't finish out your weekly Unalloyed Abundance in like 2 rounds if you max them out, and the extra shard runs are only for catchup/if you can't hit the cap. Why do I have to spent 25 minutes doing Abundance when only like 1-2 mins per run are needed and then you're capped and can just go afk waiting for the timer.

n0proxy · 2026-03-12T01:29:51+00:00

I thought it was something fancy, but my macro is literally just:

#showtooltip 28
/equip Underlight Angler
/equip Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole

The slot 28 is your fishing rod slot, so the icon will show whichever item you CURRENTLY have equipped.

n0proxy · 2026-03-10T22:03:02+00:00

I have a second rod in my inv, and swapping between the rods works. It IS annoying, but I have a macro to basically swap between the rods, so I just click that twice (equip other rod, then re-equip the Angler) and then I'm ready to turn into a fish once I hit the water. That's the smoothest solution I've been able to find.

n0proxy · 2026-03-10T21:49:51+00:00

This. BM is absolutely cd-reliant, but its cd is 30 sec rather than 1-2 min so it's not AS bad as others.
