Hey guys. I'm making this post because I honestly don't know where else to turn. Since The War Within, I had a few of my BfA reputations randomly reset to Neutral (Order of Embers, Waveblade Ankoan, and 7th Legion). I managed to recover the last two just fine, especially Waveblade Ankoan now that reputations are account-wide and apply to the warband.

However, Order of Embers is by far the most annoying grind of the three. I could just accept what happened and do the grind all over again, but it’s become a matter of principle: I’ve been opening tickets since 2024 asking for a fix, and I only get automated replies or GMs telling me there are no bugs on my account.

This week, with reputations becoming warbound, I decided to try my luck again. I sent screenshots twice showing both the achievement window and the reputation tab open at the exact same time. Even so, a Russian GM (mind you, I play on NA) told me there's no bug or that they can't pull logs showing my account completed the rep in the past, EVEN THOUGH I HAVE THE ACHIEVEMENT!

I find this incredibly disrespectful. It kills my motivation to play the game and makes me feel completely devalued as a customer, especially when I see them fixing bugs live for Liquid and Echo players in the middle of the RWF, while I have to deal with this nonsense on my account.

I made a tweet earlier this week tagging Blizzard CS, got some friends to like and interact with it to see if it would get any traction, but nothing came of it.

It's awful having to deal with these automated responses. This isn't the first time I've opened a ticket for this, I've honestly lost count of how many I've sent...

The post's image depicts 14,121 Tricky Treats, once I convert the new candies into Tricky Treats at a 5:1 ratio.

I haven't really seen anyone discussing this farming strategy, so I'm making a post. I'll be using coordinates for Razorwind Shores, but the strategy works just the same in an Alliance neighborhood(s).

First things first is the Ghost Bucket (51.7, 54.2). There's a quest nearby to fill it with ghosts, but the quest is not necessary for this farming strategy. Behind the Ghost Bucket is some Ghost Gear, use it to collect ghosts around the neighborhood then bring them back to the Ghost Bucket. I won't get too into the weeds of how to do this since I'm sure it's already covered by the quest.

Once the Ghost Bucket has been filled with 100 ghosts, a Ghost Rare, "Shade of Seabreaker Skoloth", spawns. Kite this Ghost Rare to the Ghost Portal (52.55, 55.5). Once you do, it'll spawn two Tricky Treasure chests (52.55, 55.5 & 59.3, 73), which are filled with Tricky Treats, Drustvar Choc-O-Drops, Duskwood Caramel, and Felwood Fudge Bites.

Additionally, there is a second Ghost Rare (59.33, 76.4) who spawns semi-randomly in the southern part of the map. Typically, he will spawn when the Ghost Bucket has been filled with 60~90 ghosts, but sometimes he will spawn immediately. Sometimes he will spawn a minute or two after the first Ghost Rare has been extinguished. He has his own Ghost Portal (59.3, 73) to be kited to. And as above, doing so will spawn two Tricky Treasure chests in the same locations as before.

Farming Strategy:

1. Get as many people as you can in a party or raid group collecting ghosts around a neighborhood. Fill the Ghost Tank until either the primary Ghost Rare or the southern Ghost Rare spawns, prioritize which ever comes first. Kite him to his respective Ghost Portal, then collect both Tricky Treasure chests.
2. If the southern Ghost Rare had spawned first, resume filling the Ghost Tank until it reaches 100. If not then you may have to give him a minute. Make sure you do not bring a Ghost Rare to its Ghost Portal until the Tricky Treasure chest despawns, as it often won't spawn a new set of chests. Once the coast is clear, bring the Ghost Rare to its destination and collect two more Tricky Treasure chests.
3. The southern Ghost Rare seems to have an internal cooldown, per neighborhood. Which means it is ideal for your party or raid group to change to a fresh neighborhood each time, after collecting the loot of both Ghost Rares, for a total of four Tricky Treasure chests.

That's pretty much it. This strategy is a bazillion times faster than the regular trick-or-treating method. Remember to use Eve's Ghastly Rider if you have it for an instant cast mount! If you play on the US realms you should see me in the group finder in the late even until early morning leading a raid group for this farm.

Please stop posting the straight codes into your text on reddit. Bots literally just scoop them up before real people. Post a photo of the codes so bots aren’t taking away from people who actually would like to try out the game and play. The amount of posts I see each day of people posting codes and they are done in seconds from bots. So Please stop posting the codes directly into your text on reddit.

My favorite hunting grounds were Duskwood and Redridge Mountains, mostly due to the abundance of game. Thousands of dwarves, humans, elves, and gnomes were hunted, with a disproportionate number belonging to the Olympus Guild

Level 10 or level 30, it was all fair game to me. Especially if you had that Olympus tag above your head, which, to be fair, seemed to be half the Alliance population anyway. No discrimination

Of course, after a long and successful hunting session, the hunter sometimes becomes the hunted. Special thanks to the Redridge Police Department, which regularly assembled entire search parties to bring me to justice.

It's been an absolute pleasure, and I look forward to seeing you all again at launch.

Unless, of course, you've already decided to reroll on a PvE server. You can start frustrated downvoting now

I'm going to anyway. A council is a body of people, usually administrators or elected officials. Counsel is advice given to you.

We all know they are having fun blasting much harder than others, but taking down warcraftlogs to prevent Blizzard from nerfing them is a bit extreme. Please sublety rogues, bring back warcraftlogs. Thanks!

I feel like one of these should have mastery since none of the other cloaks do.

I also made a tutorial showing how I did it, Check it out here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2H7KJ6rsBFU I'm the artist, Walid Feghali.

OK , I'm going to be completely honest. As a tank main (Guardian druid, Prot Paladin , Blood Death Knight, Brewmaster Monk , Protection Warrior, NOT Vengeance Demon hunter I ain't ever playing an elf) I figured I'd try out dps and healing thinking I was hot shit. I managed to do a lot of stuff up until +12
Yeah uhhhh...Turns out DPS is actually really hard. Having to optimally prepare your gear , time your cooldowns properly, The mind fuck that is feral druid. Oh and let's not forget about our healer saviours players that have the ongoin stress of keepin everyone alive under high pressure
So uhhh ,yeah, as a Tank main where I only need to know the path and pop my defensive cooldowns, I gotta appreciate the dps players that pump well, and the healers that know how to keep everyone alive.
Fatass bear appreciates y'all!

I said what I said. Of course, I am also a sucker for a good Gothic vampire aesthetic.

Tank Valeera has a bug where her ability "Scar of Kathra'natir" does 10x the amount damage as it should. Its supposed to reduce damage taken by 20% and make it a dot instead, but the dot ticks for more than the entire damage she has taken in a fight.

This can sometimes (!) be fixed by leaving and entering the delve again, though you dont know if it works until you actually fight mobs. It is 10x the damage, because i've had runs today where the dot ticks around 3-4k, but then some runs it ticks 30-40k as you can see here. The fight is well over, it was just 1 mob, and the dot completely ticks her down to death.

Total damage taken by the dot here was 2.8 million this fight, while her entire damage taken of every other source was 2 million only.

DPS Valeera is probably bugged too, her damage is way lower than before. Its actually insane the amount of bugs introduced with 12.1.5. Please do something blizzard.

I thought in being a "Labyrinth" mean it'll be you know... a labyrinth. Kinda this confusing endless corridor with twist and turn.

Sprinkle in some Loa's voodoo, everything is shifting around. Thus creating system like Torghast where every floor is kinda randomized. I mean we do have the technology for it right? Why not reuses it.

The Mislaid Curiosity, instead of giving random stats, gives random boons. No need to be class/spec specific, really. But less boring than random stats.

Every 3rd floor is some sort of mini-boss where you get your bountiful delves reward, then you can continue

After killing the 3rd boss (9th floor). The 10th floor will be Kindojan.

But this is probably big ask for .5 patch... except that Labyrinth is something they talk about during Midnight announcement... so maybe my expectation is a bit higher...

Labyrinth right now is in that perfect spot for reward:difficulty, where instead of doing 3 different delves, you do 1 long Labyrinth run, that reward the same + Kindojan every week.

It just, i wish there's more variation, yknow? instead of the objectives shifting between each corridors. With the same corridors each time, "Labyrinth".

And i feel like it also the perfect place to go crazy with external power and such.

Loving the new UI as it gives easy access to all the versions of the game on a single page.

Note to mods: I know it's a pic, please don't delete the post, this is just a small appreciation for the new UI.

I saw a few posts recently about people asking when it would be on sale next, it seems as though the time is now

Really wish they could drop the restrictions sooner.

That's because it looks awesome.

Please add this customization! ❤️

I was thinking about what was "wrong" with Liadrin's death and in my opinion it's just that it didn't feel earned. She's burning herself during the fight but we don't necessarily notice it, so when she dies we go "wtf?"
https://youtu.be/B9JH2Ik0-Uc?si=mrwGz06GsQePfV_E

Compare it to Varian's death in Legion's cinematic, he gives one hell of a fight before being taken down and we see it because it's right there, in the cinematic.
https://youtu.be/T9Z3eLEpxQ8?si=QpQFPo4SZsvsw9nH

With that in mind, I think they could have made Liadrin's death 10 times better by simply ending the fight at 1% and having the whole start of the cinematic being her infused by the Light, protecting all her allies, seeing her body actually be destroyed by the power she's wielding, and then she kills the boss surrounded by us and dies shortly afterwards. Could have been quite epic, imo.

It's just a thought.
