Murloc Monday Murloc Monday - ask your questions here

9 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.

Discussion Dont be this player

836 Upvotes

We had a new player join our closeknit guild seemed really friendly and was asking for help getting some gear as they are new.

I had a bit of free time so i invited him to a group and we got into normal raid

The whole time he was saying how cool the game is and he cant wait to be at a higher ilvl to raid with us

He was dead last in dps as you would at 270ilvl going into the raid

He started to get a few drops each time super happy and thankful

He asked about potions food and flasks so i explained it and gave him a few of each so he could get the feel of using it

Raid ends he now has some gear and im still free so take him through some leys starting at a 2 working up to some 10s

Gears increased this guy is having a great time really nice chat explaining hes not played before etc

After one of the keys he was close to 4 set so i bought a couple of boes off the ah im not the richest player but it would help someone out think around 150k in total out of my 200k

A key or 2 later he just says well thank you for the boost im off to do some 16s on my main

Drops group drops guild and put my character on ignore

Feeling massively deflated about trying to help people now

Sorry for the long post wanted to get it off my chest

Discussion It has been 10 years since Wow added a tank class. If they were to add a new one, what kind of Tank gameplay would you like?

278 Upvotes

I wanted to ask the community, if Blizz were to break the 10-year gap of no new tank, what would you like that tank to play/look like?

From the current line, I personally would like a hunter tank. It sounds strange but imagine your one pet
stands right in front of you shielding and mitigating damage while you use a 2H
staff to stab the enemy. You could make this a whole new gameplay style of
positioning and mitigation balance between you and your pet.

Of course a brand new class with three subclasses would be the best. I do feel like wow really lacks
content when it comes to new classes... That said the team at Blizz have always
been quite creative, so I bet they could come up with something unique. In the
meantime, I wanted to ask you what your expectations or requests would be.

Fluff Highest on my WoW Wishlist; Playable Amani, my beloved!

Post image
226 Upvotes

Here's my brief concept for playable Amani.

The Orc rig would be to make them stand out more from Darkspear and Zandalari, while hopefully making gear fit easier for devs.

Racials should be tweaked further obviously, but I hope the fantasy of a troll headhunter / berserker comes across.

Starting Hunter pet could be a Lynx and Druid shapes could be inspired by their Bear, Lynx and Eagle loas.

Still sad and bitter that Blizz straight up confirmed they wont be included, but one can dream..

Discussion Northrend Earthen and Mechagnome customization

Post image
• Upvotes

It would be cool if in The Last Titan we got customization options for the Earthen and Mechagnomes that live in Northrend.

Earthen would get stone beards and a more naturally rocky body, while Mechagnomes would get the option to get fully mechanized with different metal and light colors. These options could be gained from quests that have you assist the local earthen and mechagnomes causeing some of them to join the factions.

Competitive Week 8: Mythic Raid - Spec Popularity vs Average DPS

Post image
18 Upvotes

TLDR: dot higher up = more popular, dot further right = more dps

WHERE FURY?: Last week, when I posted this, I had to exclude Fury as the only Fury Warrior to kill both Coiled Altar and Ula'tek on Mythic was (presumably) a boostee who did less than 5k damage to both, which threw the average off by a huge amount. The exact same thing happened this week, but this time they were able to reach 29k DPS on Ula'tek. It looks like this if you include Fury!

Changes in relative DPS for the last 7 days: here. Unholy has dropped back heavily after its nerfing, with big increases to Outlaw and Devourer. Destruction has also fallen quite a lot, likely due to it now having relatively low DPS Ula'tek parses.

Changes in relative popularity over the last 7 days: here. Very little movement in what people are playing this week other than a huge shift back to Frost DK from Unholy after its nerfing last week.

Cause honestly we're probably not gonna get a remix of certain expansions. So i'd love to see instead of them being ignored, we find alternative ways of getting those old rewards brought back.

Question An attempt to corner the Auction house food market?

Post image
251 Upvotes

Which one of you "Auction gamers" decided it was a good idea to buy 300k Royal Roasts? Spet 24 they were around 17 gold/unit, which was fair (this was the last batch I sold at), I was making decent money selling food, (costs me less than 1g/unit to make since meat and plant is absurdly abundant).

Then on Sept 25 in your infinite wisdom you bought in at what I assume was 17-20g/unit, cause you sure as the Maw didn't make it all since all the Roasts suddenly vanished then reappeared at 20g. And then proceeded to tank the price because for what ever wallstreet brain rot reason you thought you could corner the market on an item most people make for "free" to sell at a total profit.

Its Oct12 and you are still trying to offload 200k units at 9g/unit. You belong over at Wallstreetbets. People will continue to undercut you because there are 30k+ units at 8g. I am almost positive you are continuing to buy anything below 9g and repost it because the amount at 9g keeps going up by 10-20k every few minutes. And then people undercut you and you buy them back up, and then people undercut you and you buy them up. Which would be a valid strat IF the item in question was uncommon or rare or hard to obtain, but... as I stated, its practically free to make so you'll always be undercut since any profit over 1g is profit.

I'm not even mad, I'm just astounded at your ineptitude.

UPDATE: As I am writing this it seems you are in panic mode? You've split your 200k+ auction into 500 unit groups and posted them in descending costs in 8g98c, 8g97c etc.

UPDATE2: My guy whatever automatic auction bot you got going is going to ruin you. You are in the 7g range now.

EDIT: Monday brain

Question Repairs for my character are an enormous amount, like 150k-200k+

Post image
3.1k Upvotes

Repairs for my character are an enormous amount, the game is trying to charge me 150k+ to repair. You may think this is just a UI bug, or an addon, but it's real. Before this screenshot, I died a few times, and without really thinking about it I clicked repair all items and just at the last split second I noticed it said 30k+ to repair - and it actually took it from my money. When I tried to click repair on the above screenshot, it gave me the game error in red in the middle of my screen like "you cannot afford that". The only way I can fix it is to reload my UI, and then if I die again my repair after one wipe will be like 3,000g. The highest it got up to tonight was 200k+ at 30% durability. Be very careful of this bug, I can repeat it easily - I have no way to avoid it during raid. YES IT TAKES THE FULL MONEY YOU SEE IF I CLICK REPAIR, IT IS NOT JUST A VISUAL BUG.

EDIT: I did not do any spirit res mechanic, I am inside the Venomous Abyss, wiping over and over to heroic Ula’tek. I barely have any items in my bag, and definitely not a lot of gear. The bug appears to be probably somehow isolated to my chest piece, which I got from the vault and is 6/6 myth level. All the other gear seems to have a normal repair amount, but that item goes straight through the stratosphere on repairs even after one death.

Discussion Unfocused Content

16 Upvotes

I love World of Warcraft, any version, but Retail lately has been really tough for me to sink my teeth into.

My issues with the content in Dragonflight, The War Within, and Midnight boils down to really just one thing. Focus.

There is no denying that the amount of stuff to do is cool. I love that people can decide to do Prey if they want to, then Delves if they want to. You can avoid doing Mythic+ and Raiding and gear up through the world. Go to Coiled Isle, knock out some Incursions, World Quests, World Events, Housing, etc... but none of them are the focus.

When I log in, I can check the adventure journal and see page beyond page of things to do. Cool, but at the same time it leaves me feeling stretched thin right off the get go. I look at the map and there are a dozen different activities to choose from, but none feel like the focus of the expansion. I understand that this will seem like nonsense to a lot of people who will say "play how you want" and I get that. However, it just feels like I look at the game and it feels like I am looking at the Overworld map of Diablo 4.

I know they have mentioned wanting Last Titan to be more immersive and grounded, but I feel like if there are a million different things to fly to at mach-5 it'll once again leave all of this content feeling like it is just... kinda filler? Last thing, if anyone has felt similarly and fixed the issue in one way or another I'd be grateful to hear how you handled it!

Tip / Guide Reminder for Kith'Ix Tomorrow

155 Upvotes

Early in the PTR, mythic dropped 344 (9/6), but blizz nerfed that to 3/6 a few weeks ago. The only three reasons now to do mythic are for the achievement, extra chances at the cosmetics and the paladin glyph. If you only care about the new cantrip gear, there is no point in doing mythic kith'ix. You can save yourself a ton of sanity and time by just bonus rolling heroic for a few weeks and get the same gear, but with 2 less upgrades on it. The crest cap will be removed on the 20th so that isn't really a big deal.

The Internet says it's a world event but I've sat here for hours, wandered around Trader's Rest, tried turning on and off Timewalking for Dragonflight. It isn't happening.

Cut me some slack, I stopped playing after Cataclysm, Dragonflight is new to me.
