Competitive Just made 3k rating, wanted to share :)

Not a fancy post, just made 3k Mythic+ rating for the first time ever and feeling really proud of myself!

After overcoming M+ anxiety I settled on a Shaman and I’ve just had such a blast.
I absolutely encountered some nasty people along the way but honestly most groups have been really good and I guess behind me wanting to share my excitement I’d encourage anyone else who’s struggled with M+ anxiety to keep at it, it can be such a fun experience.

Thanks for reading!

Discussion Went out. Touched grass. Still sad Spoiler

219 Upvotes

Man I just feel really gut punched. I was actually jaw on the floor appalled when I saw the cinematic. One of your most well-liked, even beloved, characters, and she is killed in a way that is so unnecessary. She is one of the world’s greatest paladins, this raid should’ve just tired her out, not KILLED HER. Who approved this? Who thought this was a good idea? Man I’m just sad.

I’m going to get on my soap box for a second here and say that people misinterpreting Game of Thrones has been an active detriment to storytelling, and it’s very obviously a detriment here. The point of everyone dying in GoT is that even though they all strive for power their lives are ultimately meaningless in the endless cycle of political violence they are a part of, each person just as replaceable as everyone else. When Metzen said he has a “kill list” my heart sank. A “kill list” is just meaningless box-ticking. Liadrin’s death checked a box. It didn’t mean anything. In the grand scheme of things it’s not going to mean anything. People just want to fondle themselves to the thought that they’re the next George RR Martin. “Everyone is going to be so shocked and surprised by MY Red Wedding!”

They need to have the Light, or hell even the Lo, revive Liadrin. This was such a waste. It’s so incredibly sad. I’m not even angry, that faded pretty quickly. Now I’m just plain sad.

I wanted to update this and say that I appreciate being able to commiserate with others on this. And now that I’ve had time to reflect I’ve also come to realize that no matter how upset we are and how much we express that to the people in charge of writing the story, nothing meaningfully changes. So I am working on writing an open (POLITE) letter to the WoW development team, and if people are interested in signing onto it I‘ll see how to go about enabling that.

They revive liadrin as undead then officially introduce forsaken paladins to retail for the next expansion. I'm trying to come up with an explanation for that random ass death scene and the only explanation is either "shock" value which let's be honest that was the lamest death scene i have ever seen, or they're setting up their version of forsaken paladins to retail for the next expansion.

Complaint Labyrinth still bugged

After yesterdays hotfixes one of which was:

  • Fixed an issue where the kill credit for a boss may not register if it was the second time the boss had to be defeated in the same Labyrinth run.

However it seems that if you encounter the same boss a third time the game bugs out again, fails to register the kill and you can no longer progress.

Liadran dies. So let's just get the deathlord and thr horsemen to come on by and raise liadrain as a death knight. She'd make one bad ass death knight i think.

Totally has nothing to do with not letting us raid Fordring.

Its to set up for forsaken palidans but as soon as she died I just though hey I'm the deathlord I can get her up and kicking again.

Blizzard, Alleria literally got stabbed and injured like crazy but somehow she get's to live???? And Liadrin dies? What is this?

All the goodwill that has been built since Dragonflight seems to be just going down the drain. Even the people the people that dont care about lore are questioning Blizzard and their writing decisions. And what is with the Horde hatred in the blizzard writing team? Why is there so much Alliance bias nowadays in the story? It seriously feels like we are back in Shadowlands with horrible writing left right and center.

Complaint New 5mil gold mount NPC loadouts are character specific. Please change it to account wide

19 Upvotes

The NPC loadouts on the new 5mil spore-bruto are character specific

This means you have to take every character to Harandar to enable the NPCs as by default the mount has no NPCs on it (this includes the repair and mailbox NPCs you have by default)

It is essentially a glorified passenger mount until each individual alt visits Harandar

Please consider making the NPC loadouts account-wide or able to be changed anywhere. I shouldn’t have to bring all my alts to Harandar to set the mount up, let alone characters that aren’t max level, as they just don’t have any vendors on the mount and no way to get to Harandar

Feedback Bugs aside, Labyrinth is great

28 Upvotes

Earlier this morning I posted, that I had not the best experience with Nemesis, due to Valeera being absolutely useless (for some reason she is working perfectly fine on some of my other characters, KEKW)

But bugs aside, they genuinely put some effort into it, idk about replayability, but I had a lot of fun discovering new stuff, gathering mask, looking for that guy with a key, after I completed all rooms T_T

I had a ton of fun, probably, for the first time since s2 launch

So blizzard, please, continue evolving this idea, but put some effort into proper bug fixes before release (and not only in Delves/Labyrinth)

• Upvotes

I haven’t played since shadowlands but came back for WoW:F so figured I’d check out what iv missed on retail. I took my character through the dragonflight quests without much issue but then it force feeds you the recap for TWW I was never offered the normal campaign breadcrumb, so I assume the recap was it. Wow. What a buggy piece of shit. I made it all the way to the end only to realize one of the missions “shadowy pursuit” never got marked as complete somehow but it let me continue. So once I got to the end I got the achievement for finishing the recap but I couldn’t turn the recap in.

Blizzard help says to drop the recap and restart. Except when you do that it starts the recap over from where you left off.. so I complete the buggy mission and still don’t get credit.. so the help artic says to do lorewalking. Not only did that not help but it also erased all progress in the recap so I now either have to do it all over or just straight up do the entire campaign on a second character. Seriously it’s been almost a full year the recaps been in the game how is it so bad? I was planning on just buying midnight after I hit 80 to keep playing but this has left such a bad taste in my mouth I think I’m just gonna wait until forever and play something else in the meantime.

Discussion The two hardest parts about new Labyrinth at tier 11 is (1) staying awake and (2) resetting until you dont get a bugged run

176 Upvotes

The labyrinth itself is incredibly easy. Nothing is difficult, or interesting. Its not a labyrinth, its 3 delves duct taped together. There's no "branching paths" or "interesting buffs" or things that alter how you play. This isnt torghast (and in this case i unironically prefer torghast over labyrinth). its quite literally a series of 9 corridors where you just get to pick which corridor to do first, but you gotta do them all anyway.

The problem lies in the fact that a bunch of events in the rooms can bug out. And when they bug out, you have to fully abandon the run and restart. You cant pause, you cant refresh, you cant collect your existing rewards - if you start a room and its buggy, thats it. You abandon the run and start again.

Imagine doing 5 rooms and then 6th one is bugged, so you just wasted the time clearing 5 rooms. Now repeat this 5-6-7 times until you finally get a non buggy run.

But hey. At least the boss at the end is challenging, right?

Not really.

To say that the boss was underwhelming would be an understatement. Im pretty sure proving grounds scenario is harder than the T11 labyrinth boss. It is honestly silly just how easy that fight is, compared to the hype they put around it.

So yeah. I would say if you want your easy fabled achievement, just put on something on netflix and then suffer for an hour or two resetting labs until you get a non-bugged run, then collect your rewards.

At no point in the (non-bugged) run did i feel challenged, threatened, or in danger. Literally, at no point.

Just got stuck in the Labyrinth (after already spending an hour clearing every room), because Sha'kuro slain is stuck at 0/1 after killing him. I have also tried everything to unstuck it but nothing helped.

What is infuriating though, is that these bugs existed since PTR and players have reported them in the forums. So Blizzard shipped their MAIN patch attraction riddled with bugs ALREADY identified by the players (doing the hard part for them), it's honestly insane that this is a subscription game.

I’ve been working through the achievements for Taivan and have genuinely enjoyed the dragonriding along the way. It got me wondering, what happened to dragonriding races in Midnight? Blizzard could’ve added new courses, leaderboards, seasonal rewards, and even PvP air races. There’s so much potential here.

Was it not that popular or just forgotten on the back burner?

The losses of Bolvar Fordragon and Dranosh Saurfang at the Wrathgate were the two “celebrity” or “war hero” losses for the Alliance and the Horde respectively, but while Bolvar ended up surviving (albeit being permanently infused with dragonfire and taking up the burden of being the new Lich King), Dranosh was killed again at Icecrown Citadel after being revived as a death knight. But this makes me wonder: what if Dranosh Saurfang had managed to be freed from Arthas’ influence, and he remained active as a liberated death knight?

Discussion What if... (12.1.5 spoilers). Spoiler

6 Upvotes

Ok, I get it. Liadrin died. Not the worst MC death (looking at you, Tirion) but it could be handle better. I liked her sacrifice, I like she burning herself with light even if is not as epic as it should be. But is a shame losing her. We've been with her since TBC and honestly, I like to have her around more than Alleria, Turalyon or Jaina.

The thing is... How? And then I remember they want to introduce a proper Undead Paladin questchain. I mean if we put forsaken on the table, we put Undercity/Lordaeron. And if we do that, why not include Calia Menethil (undead infused with light). It may sounds stupid but I think is a good idea to give the focus to some forsaken lore an characters like Alonsus.

What do you think?
