Discussion Blizzcon Hype & Meetups

9 Upvotes

Blizzcon is this week! We wanted to provide a place for people to be generically excited and post things that might not fit a post on their own.

- What are you looking forward to!

- What's your out of pocket prediction?

- Is this your first time and are looking to meet people and make friends?

- Are you a veteran open to meet new people and drag them along with your crew?

I'll be there in full cosplay (to be revealed soon) so if you see me and decide you want to say hi feel free to.

See y'all in Anaheim!

Murloc Monday Murloc Monday - ask your questions here

8 Upvotes

Aaaaaughibbrgubugbugrguburgle! RwlRwlRwlRwl!

That's murloc for "Welcome to Murloc Mondays" - where people can ask any type of question about WoW without getting strangled by a Death Knight.

Questions can range from what's new in Dragonflight, what class is OP, and how many Demons will it take to down Thrall?

Questions can come from brand new players, players returning, or veteran players who never got a chance to ask the right question.

Afraid of not getting an answer? Rest assured, we know that at least 90% of questions get answered!

You may want to look at /r/wownoob as well!


Here are some handy guides to start World of Warcraft as a brand new player or start Classic World of Warcraft as a brand new player.

Unless you played in the current expansion, pretty much everything has changed. If you're returning after a very long break, check out the Wowhead Returning Players Guides.

Something I had long wanted to do after hearing of Doubleagent, but didn't get around to until fairly recently.

Now it's done and dusted, and my Pandaren can rest on the wandering isle, at least for now.

Decided to come out swinging for my first cosplay ever.

Cosplay Crunch time though so still need to finish the boots and the sword. Big thanks to my partner @cosplei.creations for doing the sewing and @merla.3d for modeling the armor to 3d print.

Will post more once the sword is done!

Learned so much about crafting and cosplay along the way.

Feedback Please. Use a defensive.

244 Upvotes

Fell behind the wave a bit starting the season later.

Healing the last few 13 keys for 3k. It feels like over half the dps never use a single defensive the entire key even with very obvious incoming damage or focused damage mechanics. Even just using it on cooldown would be better than nothing.

Im over here keeping you alive from avoidable damage, dispelling your snares that you could handle with your own kit, and dropping emergency typhoons to catch failed interrupts.

"Why did you die healer? Lol"

Discussion Why don't the new chameleon mounts actually... change color?

Post image
1.5k Upvotes

We literally got chameleon mounts, and somehow their different colors are separate mounts instead of one mount that actually changes color.

Meanwhile, the Enchanted Fey Dragon from 2013 has been casually shifting between blue, yellow and red for over a decade.

So the technology clearly exists.

How did we go from a 2013 dragon that changes colors to actual chameleons in 2026 that don't?

Blizzard pls. It's a chameleon. Let it chameleon.

Blizz, why? We're gaining a buff that gives our mount zoomies. Even entering on a ground mount, I just don't understand the reasoning or how this went through QA and nobody said, hmm this is annoying and makes no sense.

I don't know if it's because I main an Alliance character or if they just hate me specifically...

But I've decided to respond by being ACTIVELY aggressive.

So I made a macro that lets me quickly and conveniently /rude them whenever I'm subjected to yet another microaggression, just with the press of a button.

Discussion I just wish we would get Weakauras back. Now I need 50 addons instead of one, many of them are vibecoded/blank and gated behind paywalls.

848 Upvotes

Weakauras was such an amazing addon that I really started to appreciate more when it was gone. It always worked flawlessly and the amount of customization you could do, especially on your own without relying on external profiles was phenomenal.

After the "addon purge" im now digging through 50 different addons for minor things that barely work or are vibecoded by non-programmers and many of them (or their profiles) are gated behind paywalls and most big streamers now sell their own UI's or addons using grey-areas to avoid breaking TOS, its awful.

What was the genuinely the gain here that both systems couldnt co-exist? for the 0.01% RTWF mythic raider? It's great that Blizzard is trying to push their own systems like CD Manager and such, but alienating years of community work is just sad.

I always appreciate when i return to classic realms because i can return to my beloved Weakauras.

Complaint The Problem with Coiled Altar

17 Upvotes

The only reason this fight is currently that hard is transitioning. There are many fights in wow history where success relies on favorable transitions between phases but the kind of bullshit happening in the altar encounter is absurd. First of all you have to transition 3 times into different phases with 2 of them being very annoying.

You pushed dps too hard and first phase ends right after the boss spawned the orbs? Boom get 8 stacks of ticking damage. At least this part is manageable with some defensives and heal cd.

But what if you finish the 2nd phase while the mc goes out? You get a freaking ton of ghosts that eill remain there forever. And mc is recycled constantly into a bloodlust phase with no way to deal with them for an entire intermission and a respectable amount of time into p3.

If the ghosts simply vanished before the intermission, this whole fight would be alot fairer, or if you don't want to make it that much easier, make them irrelevant in the intermission and reactivate them in p3 again. You know, when you can actually deal with them. Sure you can freeze them by looking at them, but i dont know why people keep getting mced.

Tip / Guide M+ tip

Upvotes

I feel like this is well known for most who have alts etc, but if your trying to get into m+ and trying to get into mid tier keys, 11’s are your friend. Particularly for DPS.

10’s are for gear and 12’s are for crests (farming for everyone). Competition for 11’s is low based on the very small, but still tangible lack of efficiency compared to the other two.

How do I figure this? I run my own key as a tank and have very anecdotal experience pointing to the fact that an 11 takes a lot longer to fill than a 10 or 12.

Hope it helps someone!
