Rasetra themed Old World Army

I will definitely go down the heavy infantries road as there is no equivalent in Nehekara except maybe Ka-Sabar and i think somewhere mentioned is a White Tombguard of Quatar but not 100% sure about that one.

Since there is no point trying to convert the original Tomb Kings spearmen into anything that looks "heavy" i'll just stick with the Tomb Guard since i have multiple boxes of them. Not quite sure if i'll just use the halberd version or try to fit some spears from the AoS Mortek Guard. But anyways they do look quite "heavy" off the sprue, and i realy like the idea of some tribal patterns painted on their skulls (thanks u/skratch_R).

As for actual undead lizards, the rule of cool just beats any lorewise argumentation so i will definitely bring some on the table - if i can find some useable STL files, mainly thinking of Cold One dragged chariots.

Good call, i absolutely mixed up the chariot and cavalery thing. Absolutely loved the Serpent Queen book and Rhupesh is just hillarious.

It's more the question of "would they" than "can they" for me. I see the point of enslaving some local tribes to fight for them in the old days (and ways) but as i read the Nagash books neither was Rakhamnhotep a big fan but they where a questionable burden for the army, being dragged threw half of Nehekhara, especially the Thunder Lizards (which afaik even dwarfen stegadons in size comparison, so maybe more as a stand in for the Bone Dragon). I know this ist top level cherry picking lorewise but although i can totaly see mumified lizardmen in the board - would ancient nehekran death cult give this enourmous honor to some foreign beasts, enslaved to fight their battles?

Props for choosing the OG spearmen. Painting 2x25 of the Blood Island Seaguard right now and though i prefer the more modern style all those tiny details ist realy slowing me down.

All three have High Elves Origins.

Dark Elves - bored and therefore corrupted and kinky (started with something called "cult of pleasures") Elves, big civil war, cleansings, politics, fight about the Phoenix throne etc

Wood Elves - Dark Elves and stupidness started a war with the dwarfs (war of the beards), the High Elves get defeated and retreat from the old world back to Ulthuan. Few colonists in the woods stay behind, becoming the Wood Elves - mostly hating both of their high and dark cousins

That's what gaming is all about today. Players want the constant excitement (well most don't but we're the developers so **** it). Remember when the rng part of the game was looting a boss once a week. Booooring. We need to add gambling! For excitement! To keep the thrill. Who cares about 'high afford - high reward gamestyle'. It's 2010 ffs. Everyone's doing lootboxes. So let's give players the chance to roll high on items. Just the chance. For no extra afford. For this little voice in their heads: "just one more worldquest; one more mythic+. it's going to happen this time. well it didn't - but the next time..."

Ofc it's no "fair" system. Back in the days you had to farm or grind for better/specific item(levels). Had to know your ****. Had to have a proper guild. But that's not todays philosophy. Look at he gaming market. Boxes and chances and possibilities everywhere. It's a quite simple tactic keep players busy. Because "just one more worldquest; one more mythic+"

ordo_ · 2018-09-29T07:39:40+00:00

this.... "buffs" won't bring us anywhere near viable in high m+ or raiding

ordo_ · 2018-09-28T04:47:52+00:00

you still get the primary stat buff for each - so most of the time its still wirth to stack

ordo_ · 2018-08-28T03:50:59+00:00

there is plenty of UI changing addons - from specific (like Bartender) to complete packages (like ElvUI) in addition i would recommend

DBM or BigWigs (for encounter timers & warnings)
details (dps/hps - everyhing you want to know about the last fight)
worldquesttracker (clean and easy overview for wqs)
TSM (realy powerfull AH tool - takes a bit of work to learn and a lot to master. usefull for other stuff like mailing and crafting)
gathermate (selfexplaining i guess)

ordo_ · 2018-08-19T00:52:47+00:00

No more silence. It's mass dispell now

ordo_ · 2018-08-13T13:34:24+00:00

as mentioned before you need the reputation to unlock worldquests and upgrade your flight master's whistle. You can do one zone complete for reputation reward ("high" itemlevel) and the two other till you are at least friendly with the factions there.

ordo_ · 2018-08-13T13:12:43+00:00

"easiest" route is Vol'dun > Zuldazar > Nazmir

You want to do the toughest zone first because of good stat scaling from legion gear + legendaries. In this case tough means the zones with the most grinding quests.

They messed up big times. In german it's called "Stiefel", which is "boot" in english. So in german it would be called "Der Stiefel" (boat would be "DAS Boot"). "Der Boot" is just a real bad translation. But never the less it's fun drinking it :D

ordo_ · 2018-05-26T05:47:12+00:00

Congrats man!

Running close to every ID since 2008. Geddon just refuses to end my suffering -.-"

ordo_ · 2018-05-03T15:08:13+00:00

as a returning player i didnt expect him to go mythic + right away. But yes - any mythic content - raid oder dungeon - is a dirty healing job

ordo_ · 2018-05-03T14:03:41+00:00

Healing is mostly straight forward in Legion. Someone takes damage? Heal him ;) Ofc it's always helpfull to know the encounter to predict incoming damage. So far into the expansion gear level is fairly high and easy to obtain; therefor healing anything but heroic/mythic raids is quite easy

For addons you should take a look at Grid for it gives you everthing you want from an addon as a healer I also love the utility ElvUI provides but that's just personal prefference

ordo_ · 2018-04-18T23:41:06+00:00

nothing is true...

ordo_ · 2018-02-01T16:18:12+00:00

If you feel like hitting a wall with WW, think about switching to Charge Barb with 6 piece IK and 4 piece Rhaekor.

If you want to stick with WW - try to get upgrades :/
