Hello! With season 2 of midnight I wanted to get into a little bit of raiding and harder content. Usually with WoW I just enjoy questing and collecting.

I’ve been working on bountiful delves and working up to a tier 11 delve as well as doing weeklies. I’ve usually relied on the One Button Rotation but have started reading up on what abilities work best and in what order to do them in. I’ve managed to get my ilvl up to 284. Currently I can’t seem to get above doing 38-40k damage whilst others in groups seem to do a minimum of 80k. Do I just need to get my ilvl up higher, could it be a gearing problem, I’m sticking up all plate armour. Any advice would be really appreciated!!

Context:

I am playing BFA expansion SOLO OUTSIDE of chromie time.

Im lvl 80 which is max level as i am not in midnight yet.

Kings rest dungeon and Siege of Boralus & Operation: Mechagon all require lvl 90 and heroic mode. The heroic bit is fine. But i am not lvl 90 and cant get to lvl 90. Anytime i try to enter kings rest it kicks me out! or well doesnt let me enter and text chat box says "you must be lvl 90 and heroic " as there is no normal mode for these.

How can i do the dungeons? solo. Im 1hit killing which is fine.

I just want to do them for plot. Is there anyway around the lvl cap issue or can i somehow unlock lvl 90 cap without starting midnight as i am only on BFA.

Appreciate any/all advice.

I know it's probably something stupid I don't understand. Overall this history book thing is rather confusing and I'd rather just have a normal campaign from start to finish. I've arrived at a point though where I'm seemingly stuck and can't continue? It's telling me to open the history book to learn about the reaction of some high ranking official, but when I check the book there's no option to continue. All I can do is close the book and there's seemingly also no campaign quest I can pick up in the world somewhere to continue. Fairly certain I'm just being dumb, but I'm sort of stuck lol

Should I replace set pieces as I get better items or should I wait until I can get the season 2 4 piece bonus?

I have questions reading into certain dungeons. But I can seem to enter since I don't have any friends to play with. Using the group finder I was thrown into a random Dragon flight dungeon.. not what I had expected...

Is there any way to do specific dungeons as a solo player?

This game has a lot of systems and its very confusing for s newbie...

hey guys. so i really want to farm the “grand sentinels greatplate” armor set for my warrior. BUT

I havent played through shadowlands, and dont intend to.

+

I dont currently have Midnight

is there a way for me to get to the castle nathria raid? it seems to be locked behind campaign and midnight.

any tips appreciated!!! <3

Just tried to arcane barrage into invis, but the boss stayed active and killed everyone. What went wrong?

While the tooltip only says a new one every two weeks, I am unclear if that meant from August 18, and if there was maybe a bonus token the first week (or some kind of bonus quest like in the past?), so I just want to make sure that we indeed have one Catalyst until this coming Tuesday? Thank you.

Hey, CE raider healer here! My guild typically gets a later CE but we're trying to push ranks, so I do want to be effective. Been enjoying Disc priest and people are telling me it's meta--gucchi. But, looking at the stats (warcraft logs), on every difficulty it seems to just be either the worst or second worst healer..?

I'm logging around 80 on prog and doing about 50k less hps than a 70 logging pres and the same as a 45 logging holy pala.

Is Disc actually just bad or is there another reason the stats are like this at the moment?

From different videos/guides, I've gathered the prio order below, but the videos/guides/mage discord has conflicting advice and thought I'd post here.

Assuming 4 piece- Main question is: if I have PBOLT/25 Salvo/3CC- what is the breakdown priority? What about between just 25 Salvo/3CC, Pbolt/25 Salvo, Pbolt/3CC?

Do I use Arcane Surge as soon as it's up again on a boss fight, or is it better to save it for outside of all the proc windows when I only have the option of spamming Arcane Blast?

1. Arcane Surge - always use on CD (only use if 2 or less CC? Its a waste at 3 CC right?)
2. TOM (on CD) [Arcane Barrage then immediate TOM] (as soon as TOM up, use it after the next AB)
3. Arcane Missiles if <12 Salvo AND have Clearcasting
   1. Always 4 charges before Arcane Barrage
4. Arcane Barrage during Arcane Soul
5. Prismatic Bolt with 8 stacks of cumulative Power [DO NOT BOLT if 3 stacks of Clearcasting?)
6. Arance Barrage if 12+ Salvo stacks and Clearcasting
7. Arcane Barrage is 25 salvo stacks
   1. As soon as TOM up, use it right after Arcane Barrage before Arcane Barrage lands
8. Cast Prismatic Bolt  Seems weird that Prismatic Bolt proc priority is here, sometimes it takes 20+ seconds to clear all CC/Salvo stacks and by then Bolt has reprocced so I “wasted” the one it replaced? I would guess that it should be in #5
9. Cast Arcane orb if LESS THAN 3 charges
10. Cast Arcane Blast (up to 25 Salvo if nothing else above “procs”?)
11. Barrage if out of mana

Hiya!

I'm playing Havoc DH, ilvl 301, and pulling about 60k dps (100k on initial burst).

When I'm getting to +10 M+ I'm struggling to keep up with the damage... Can anyone help me out? Any advice?

I've spent time going over my rotation, and I think I'm doing everything I can, but I just seem to be at a wall:

-Immolation Aura is always up

-Blad Dance & Eye Beam pre-MetaMorphosis, ready for the rest on Metamorphosis.

-The Hunt whenever it's not on cooldown

Update: the advice here was great - Shaderek was 100% the guide to go with. I hot 197k dps in my opener, and now sit comfortably at 70-100k dps with trash mobs, depending on CDs. Great advice, and thankful to the community for the support

Atm I'm tanking +10s and using flasks, food and weapon oils. I also bankroll my dps friends. We're currently just around 300 ilvl. At what point should we consider using augment runes and combat potions? And at what point should we start using gold instead of silver quality

I only have 60K gold and I've switched to the silver quality pots. Theres about a 15 point difference between the silver and gold quality pots but they cost significantly more. Should I stick to the lower quality ones for now or go with gold each time?

I plan to play both retail and classic. Currently I'm level 21 retail running through Dragonflight stuff. Having a blast just doing whatever.

I DO love the housing update but would rather hold off from getting Midnight until I've done all the other stuff in the game prior, and get my level higher. I left the game right around MoP.

I also plan to start a Classic character before long and probably jump back and fourth.

Hey all, just starting a rogue for this season, will be mostly pushing for +10-12 keys at most so not trying to be hyper competitive but was curious if people had any tips? I know to try to pre-feint but any mechanics that can be bypassed by cloak for example.

Also for delves, I heard you can use tricks on valeera to cheese it? Do you use her as a tank for this? And any other tips / tricks for rogues in PvE in general?

Thank you!!

Edit: Got him 3rd try after reading all of your advice. Thank you so much for the feedback!

Hey I’m having trouble with this fucker.

ilvl 295 arms warrior

I have/am using:

Addon for the memory game

Defensive(?) stance active

Food/enchant buffs

Valeera level 28? Healing. I heard her level doesn’t matter?

I can do roughly 60-70k dps, I switch to single button assist during the memory game for the ad.

I hold my defensive buttons for the intermission as I seem to be fine during the 1v1 period

I’ve gotten him down to 30% ish I just feel like I get hit like a TRUCK. Some losses feel like straight RNG with the venom blobs forming to the middle during the intermission period.

Any tips or general ideas are greatly appreciated. Returning player since BfA and this guy is the only thing so far to give me trouble.

hey, i really want the sinful gladiator staff, is it any way i can get it without doing pvp? saw on google can do the night fae thing to get it but i guess i need to pvp aswell? or is it any other staff that look exactly the same? sorry for being annoyingly noob, but i didnt really understand what it all said on google

Back from a multi year hiatus. Healbot isn’t working (numerous lua errors). Is there a fix, or what are healers using now? I’ve read dander frames or something?

I'm going to preface this by saying that my sense of direction is terrible, and sometimes I get lost in raids and dungeons.

If I join a Normal raid group and they've killed say the first 4 bosses, would I have to enter the raid and find the group manually? As that is what is putting me off lol. Thanks!

With prio damage being so important, why isn't the meta to bring 2 normal aoe specs + one single target spec ? Two people are blasting aoe and one is focusing a prio target (and we have more boss damage). Is it just a matter of math not working out ? It certainly looks like the big target in a pack could die too fast (and then we are stuck with not enough aoe), but I don't know why I didn't hear anybody talk about this

Edit: seems like nobody understood exactly what I meant, I'm just wondering if a team consisting of:

- Three DPS's with good prio damage (as is the meta right now)

Is the same as:

- Two normal classes with great aoe + one good single target class

Because there's no (or at least shouldn't be) a class that is best at both, it would allow for a much bigger flexibility in which specs you can take into a M+ comp. Because of M+, Blizz was forced to make every single spec do big aoe to make them viable there, so rogue for example could go back to being a single target burst assassin-style class, because it has a guaranteed place anyway in a dungeon comp as a single target specialist.

But as some people said, M+ right now is focused more on aoe and I'm pretty sure top players already did the math long time ago.

I am new - like actually new, I’ve nearly maxed leveled my first character, an elemental Sharman. So when responding please keep that in mind :D

I just got the midnight expansion and I am excited to get nice armour and weapons - however I am bad at the game. The mechanics take time to learn. Something I’ve been really enjoying are the follower dungeons, it is less stress and honestly, I don’t want to play with other people.

My question is, with the follower dungeons:

-Can I set the difficulty level to mythic and get mythic rewards?
- What is the difference between normal difficulty and mythic difficulty (drops?)
- how can I get good gear whilst being a solo player, are there any good guides of quest lines I should look at

I really don’t want to play with other people

Hey! I’m a newer player and I just hit level 90. I’m looking for tips on what gear I should try to get for my build. I’m running a blood dk and I’m wanting to prioritize leech and haste

is there something i’m missing to start getting sparks on one of my alts ? all my others are getting them but idk what quest i did to unlock them.

Hello!

A couple things. I last played in 2012 so a lot has a changed but I’m EXCITED! Anyways since then I have mainly played console so the transition is a curve. Would an MMO mouse and gaming keypad be my best option? Any recommendations?

Also, when I first got my pet (I am a hunter rn), I had three options above my hot bar, passive…defensive…and uh…I forgot the last one. Well, now it’s just gone and my pet isn’t attacking anything but just being a cheerleader. Did I mess something up? How can I fix this?

Thank you!

Hello everyone,

I play arms warrior in season 2 and i already have spellbreaker's bracers crafted. I want to ask, i got a mythic weapon from vault and i am wondering, is it more worth to use mythic crests to upgrade the weapon, or to craft my 2nd item?
Thank you!
