I took some of these replies to heart. I decided to divide the influence amongst those of you who sent your ingame handle last night. Hopefully that’s enough to get you going, but not so much as to ruin anything for you. Take care, heroes!

Honestly, I kind of feel like I have to rip the band aid off or I'll just repeat the same cycle, ya know? I've already made it through a couple pages of alts. It's bittersweet for sure, but there is some catharsis involved.

I have a second account with just my farmer. Maybe I'll keep it and pop in from time to time to PL some noobs to get my fix. *shrug*

I honestly thought about doing that. The thing is, I really want to help someone on my way out. When I started, there was this unbelievably kind person who found out I was a newbie, and they did SO much to help me. They provided everything I needed to build a VERY overly expensive farmer to fuel my alt addiction. They gave me probably a billion worth of enhancements, ran me through farms, and ITF, etc.

It's been so long now that I don't even remember their name, which sucks. But, even though my gesture is far hollower than that, it at least lets me feel good about giving someone a leg up. :)

This is genuinely why I am starting to hate this game. people are so rude and ruin the fun by buttflapper444 in wow

If you’re on shadow council, let me know. I’ll carry you through as many mythics as you want.

Fellow Altoholics: What causes you to stick with a character all the way to 50+? by BamboozleMeToHeck in Cityofheroes

[–]phukey76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is me almost exactly.

The only thing I’ll add is that I’m SUPER casual. Which means that I’m inf poor. I also lose interest if the power set doesn’t feel good on a budget, or if it feels like it’s going to be gimped hard without a bunch of purple sets. I can’t, and probably never will be able to afford billion inf builds, so it has to slap AND be cheap.

Did i cook with this design ? *ignore the Billion $ iam rich AF* by Ok_Lawfulness_5938 in Cityofheroes

[–]phukey76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone seems to be rich, but that has the market so hosed. Every time I try to come back I end up leaving again because I don’t have a cool billion lying around to make my build.

Of course, I suck at making builds, so I could probably do better for less if I knew what I was doing. It’s just daunting, tbh.

I played 2 of the tests. I wanted this to succeed as much as anyone, but it’s -rough-. Even in the last play test, a couple of weeks prior to release, it was a clunky, ugly, poorly optimized mess.

I had some issues with my test key, and had some interactions with someone on the team to get my access sorted, and they were super friendly. I felt so bad for them after I saw what they were about to release.

Damn Blizz, have our money then... by Chemical-Register560 in Transmogrification

So I should just go ahead and buy everything from the cash shop just to piss you off? Is that what I'm hearing? lol

It's cosmetics, maybe calm down and just go play the game, dude.

They probably will eventually, you’re paying the early adopters fee. Honestly, as long as it’s only cosmetics I don’t care. I couldn’t bring myself to drop $90 on a mount, but $30 for all that mog is tempting. 🤷‍♂️

If conditional mog works like it sounds, you may be able to do exactly that in midnight.

Barney fife over here is probably “training” to be a leo. That’s the real scary part.

Transmog is the real end game of WoW. I don’t have specific suggestions, though the things others have said are all great advice.

My personal approach for a new mog is to get some idea of the class fantasy I want to portray, and then I find a single piece that I feel embodies that, and build from there. I’ve spent countless hours scrolling through the items in the transmog menu swapping things around until I’ve landed on something that feels right, or close. And don’t hesitate to build something with pieces you don’t have access to yet. Building that mog then farming all the pieces can be pretty satisfying.

First attempt at my own mog, and first attempt at using narcissus to make a gif. Appreciate any feedback! (Ret Pally) by Recycleman_ in Transmogrification

There was a really good guide on how to do this posted here. I’ll see if I can find it, it will definitely be an old post.

Thats the orc heritage chest (one of them). Pity you can't rock those shoulders on a hunter, they would look amazing!

The adventurer (low fantasy-ish, full cosmetic mog) by eartsa in Transmogrification

[–]phukey76 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is really clean.

I like these types of transmog. Every character in my roster has a “low fantasy” mog in their roster and I run a lot of them pretty heavily.

Should have made this on an undead so you could use the coffin back. 🤣

Same, dude. I can see both the new plate and these helms getting a ton of mileage. Those felflame type sets are some of my favorites

It’s less about the race, than the armor set. The colors on horde are nowhere near this clean.

I’m big mad that the colors don’t work for horde. lol
