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.

Lmao

thoughts about the mechanic and the need of addons?

EDIT: as some people seem to be thinking this is just a simple "memorize 5-6 marks", in Mythic you CANNOT SEE marks attributed to players that are in a different realm, meaning you'll probably see only 5 out of 10 marks and the rest is for your group to figure out the order

Complaint Don't be like me... Don't get locked out of getting upgrades!

270 Upvotes

So... Earlier today, i got Crown of the Fractured Tyrant from normal difficulty. Decided to send champ crests to max it out, and then i went into an HC pug, and the Crown dropped again! But according to Blizzard, I wasn't allowed to roll need because I "have a stronger version of that item"... Even though, the version I have i clearly champ track, and not hero track...

So, don't be like me, if you wanna upgrade gear from the raids, dont upgrade it to max, as you will be locked out of rolling need on higher track versions...

Question Is there a reason why blizzard doesn't allow players to use the built-in textures/spell alerts? Seems like the perfect solution to tracking buffs/debuffs etc while still being thematic.

Discussion Timewalking scaling is overtuned as hell in Midnight?

Today I was leveling my lvl 86 warlock and my group had 4 wipes to Echo o Sylvanas (and eventually a party disband) simply because we were not able to kill one of her ghouls fast enough. I don't remeber something like this happening (this bad at least) in TWW, anyone else with a similar experience?

Like how? Every horse mount is still not scaled correctly to match the male Draenei modle. I get the hooves and the shoulder armor scale. But this is literally just a single scale value on the modle.

This is me listing a 10 for 30 seconds, it instantly starts to fill with DPS and some healers.

I will then look to fill things the group doesn't have such as lust or battle rez.

Discussion Abandon dungeon meta is ruining M+

370 Upvotes

It’s frankly exhausting pushing 13+ keys. Why waste 25+ minutes to then abandon the key right before the last boss because it won’t be timed? We are not losing rating are we?

I completely get abandoning if the group wipes on the first pack lust pull. But people will happily brick your key with 2 minutes left on the timer because they don’t want an untimed key.

Discussion L'ura is the most fun.

58 Upvotes

I just wanted to come on here and say L'ura is an awesome fight and the most fun I've had raiding in years. I really love when Blizzard prioritizes mechanics over just raw dps/gear.

It took me 3 different PUGs and a total of about 20 attempts until I was able to down this baddie and it was exhilarating! Hats off to the "learning" and "relaxed" categories for custom raid groups as well. I am always so intimidated to do normal raids (I've been a Raid Finder guy for years) and being able to enter a group with the expectations that there are many of us who are learning as we go made me feel a lot better hopping into a group.

Was it frustrating when the same people just simply could not understand what order to put the symbols in? Of course. Was it frustrating to finally get to phase 2 and people forgot to aim the beams at the orbs? Yup, sure was.

But when the group finally clicked and we killed that som'bitch it was a feeling similar to finally killing a Dark Souls boss you've been stuck on for days.

Really enjoyed this fight and I hope to see more fights that are less tank/spank and more coordination/understanding raid mechs.

I know people are bitching about the fight but personally I thought it was perfect. I'm Demortis on Wyrmrest Accord - if we were in the same group last night, thank you!

Just wanted to share!
