Feeling stupid that I didnāt bother to check thoroughly enough that there are many other ways I can gear up my alts quickly and easily through weeklies, world bosses and crafting orders. Here Iāve been doing nothing but farming my weekly Dreamsurge Cocoons, Dilated Time Pods and Fyrakk Assaults.
Ranged going into melee on Archmage Sol. Like, bro.
I did Fyrakk LFR, on this character and on the first boss, 2 necks dropped, with Haste/Mastery stats. I had a ILV 428 Haste/Versatility, neck. I pressed need and won, with a roll of 100. I passed on the second one. I immediately equipped it.
However upon, leaving the instance, I realised, I got a very bad neck item.
It has tons of Mastery (the worst stat for survival Hunter) and less Haste, than the ILV 428 neck. The only positive thing is: I can put sockets in it.
Memo for myself, when playing, the other 3 Hunters: never, ever, ever, roll on this neck again
Temptation is so hard to avoid.
On the same LFR, the 1st boss, dropped a bow but this character is survival spec.
To add salt to the wound, not only was higher ILV than my 418 polearm, I didnāt had the appearance.
I just told myself: āYou have 3 other Hunters. They will get it.ā
I canāt complain, since, I got a epic Polearm, which I didnāt had the appearance, in another LFR.
Cheers.
Urgh, stupid rocket. I just want to be done with it.
Edit: Iām done. After the first run today. After Thousands of runs, more than a decadeā¦ Dear baby Thrall, I feel relieved.
I was running a few legacy raids for both getting progress on the Trading Post and for a transmog for my main, and Mythic Siege of Orgrimmar gave me a headache. The first boss was annoyingly long, and I gave up during Galakras since itās a pain to keep Jaina, Varian and Vereesa alive as a non-healer while also blasting the dragons down from the towers.
Clear a wave as soon as it starts then run to a tower to clear, then do the same for the next tower, it hasnāt really failed me
While I was working on unlocking the goblin heritage armour I got sent to talk with an engineering vendor. It was really strange getting a mixture of Vanilla (āI got what you need!ā) and Cataclysm goblin NPC interact speech from him. Then I bought the quest item and got new voice lines in a third voice (that sounded like Scott Menville).
Kill #14 on Fyrakk, no axe. Meanwhile others are on their second one. Feels absolutley fantastic and not at all the dumbest system ever implemented which rewards nothing but dumb luck.
I think yesterday i cursed the person who ideated the beetle quest in forbidden reach (the catapult one) 400000 times. how is possible just to think such a perverse, obnoxious and hateful quest?
I hear ya there. Especially being a Fury Warrior, I would need TWO of those axes.
Same here - but i dont do content that requires it
Today, I just wanted to beat myself WWE style
Made possible the worst mistake EVER in WoW.
Iāve been collecting:
From Fyrakk LFR on several characters.
After finally learning, that this item drops weekly, I was in a hurry to get it delivered.
However, Iāve been inside instances, so many times, that I completely neglected the quest to access the Dream zone.
I went with my 1st BE Paladin and after, doing the quest, I purchased an item.
What I really wanted, was boots. Unfortunately I only had set pieces.
I ended up purchasing, the shoulders and upgrading it, to ILV 450, so I could have the 4 pieces of the set.
It wasnāt that much of an upgrade, since I already had:
Volcanic Spelunkerās Vents
Raid Finder
Item Level 450
Binds when picked up
Shoulder
Plate
+489 Strength
+489 Intellect
+1,861 Stamina
+208 Critical Strike
+456 Versatility
However upon placing the old shoulders on the bags, I realized, I already had the set shoulders, ILV 447, rewarded this week, from the vault. I didnāt equipped them, because they were 3 ILV lower, than what I had
So I wasted an opportunity to purchase the set chest, wasted currency in upgrading an item, I already had in the bags
Lesson learned: if you have an upgrade to do, do it now , donāt save it for later.
Also thatās what I get for playing too many characters (25 characters level 70)
I was so mad that I decided to do the quest again on my 2nd BE Paladin.
Only this time, I realised, that I couldnāt purchase anything, because, I either had it already or had something better equipped.
Like the hands and the legs
I ended up, leaving the currency on my bag.
After completing the 4 Mithic runs, I went to the NPC to claim, my reward on my 1st BE Paladin. I already got burned on my Forsaken Priest, for receiving the same staff, in two different weeks of TW.
Staff of Incandescent Torment
Item Level 454
Binds when picked up
Two-Hand
Staff
780 - 1,056 Damage
Speed 3.60
(254.9 damage per second)
+3,011 Intellect
+2,605 Stamina
+263 Critical Strike
+638 Mastery
So I than decided to change her spec, to Retribution. I mean if itās armour, it can be used in all 3 specs, if itās a weapon , I really need something better than the Dreamsurge ILV 415, Iām using.
However once again my stupidity strikes again.
I completely neglected that the 4 Mithic runs chest, reward was higher than any of the items, she had.
I got a: strength trinket
The only thing, that I wasnāt expecting
It canāt be used in Holy spec and Protection spec, requires: Haste.
I than went with my 2nd BE Paladin, did the 4 Mithic 0 runs and this time, I set her spec for: Holy.
I get:
Larodarās Moonblade
Heroic
Item Level 473
Binds when picked up
One-Hand
Sword
448 - 747 Damage
Speed 2.60
(229.8 damage per second)
+2,354 Intellect
+1,640 Stamina
+327 Haste
+160 Mastery
In conclusion, due to my poor decisions my 2nd Paladin is now, better geared than my 1st Paladin
Cheers.
I CANT TANK THE FIRST BOSS OF DHT.
Makes me mad tbh, I absolutely HATE that boss.
People.
Always people.
People being disrespectful and lack common sense (Renaming it Artifact Sense).
Whats up? What part canāt you tank?
In my smol attempt to help:
Tank him in a matter that makes sense, aimed away from group for the charge, and donāt stand around where add-goo is.
Basically, Kite him āaroundā but constantly facing a wall.
<3
I guess today was my last attempt at the love rocket ā¦ you used to be able to have one last try for drops before 10am the next morning, but now the reset time is so early (4am in UK?) I canāt see that happening.
Why does the reset stop you attempting another kill before 10am?
Iām not sure. I thought the end time was somehow connected with the reset time. Which Iām guessing isnāt true at all from your post?
Iām not sure it has any impact on that extra attempt, it just needs to be a new wow day.
Itās been some time since I was squeezing in those extra attempts, I got my rocket during SL as I distinctly remember taking my screenie on mount in Revendreth xD
Was genuinely curious tbh.
I think youāre right, and itās just me misremembering as reset was never at 10am ā¦ so how could it be connected with it. So thereāll be 2 more attempts to fail at getting the rocket
