6 reasons why I quit wow

errr, where did i tell you OR ANYONE that they MUST unsub?

IMAGINE. i was trying to show a point that blizz dont care if a few dozen or even a few hundred players quit forever, cause there are ALWAYS players willing to get their boat, i mean 6 month sub during dry content and pay for all the services in the shop.

people can do what they want with their money and at no point did i tell you what to do with yours.

i personally took about 5-6 months off recently cause im not a hypocrite! (and sadly, it wasn’t the only break i took during BfA) :frowning:

You needed artisan riding after neutral but I cannot recall why.

The full guide is available on Wowhead.

I may be thinking of something else, or it wasn’t linked to obtaining the drake, but I do remember flying round with an NPC and I had to keep up. Funny how things remind you of old quest lines, I remembered it only because I did see the badge you got in the bank of an old alt :smiley:

ok, well i wont take a stance on something i dont remember. i recall there was a questline throughout it, cause you used to get a trinket that upgraded or something? the one that eventually let you summon a whelp to attack enemies. i think i remember the netherwing being hostile, but i thought that changed when you did a questline to save the drake on the mainland, not the floating island where the dailes were. i have no memory of having to grind up to neutral from hated like you have to do with the AQ bronze dragon rep, so i’ll stay silent on that matter.

was that the race? we had to race npcs around the island, each one being faster than the last?

I am not sure if it was a race as such or we are talking different things lol. I do remember you had to stay with the NPC and each time he went faster with lots of turns mid flight to throw you off. The badge was upgraded each time (it may have been a trinket). :slight_smile:

Are you thinking of the MOP questline where you had to do that daily race against other wind serpent riders?

I recall starting the grind and then going off to sea and then never bothering again. Maybe I will go back and do it one day.

When i started the game i always felt pressure to keep up with the dailies and it became quickly a chore. The approach I now use is i do what ever i feel doing in the game, maybe i feel i have to do some gold I just farm gold, I don’t do dailies, I’m not gonna be worry about dailies, I don’t care, it’s like they don’t exist i’m just doing my own thing. Weirdly enough my character saw a major progression like that than what i was doing before.

that sounds like the same thing i think :slight_smile: i am not sure if you had to finish ahead of them, or just keep up, i just remember for one of them it was better to stay ahead of him cause he threw flaming skulls or pumpkins at you or something.

To be fair it might not have had anything to do with the Drake rep, I just remembered doing it at the same time I was farming eggs :slight_smile:

Took me a month to farm netherwing Drake mount the rep grind was real :grin:.

wait wait wait…

Hated to Neutral
Level 70 players will begin their journey to exalted reputation by picking up the quest chain offered by Mordenai, a blood elf wandering the surface of the Netherwing Fields, in the southeast corner of Shadowmoon Valley. The quest chain begins with the quest Kindness. Completion of this quest line will provide an instant reputation boost to neutral and the choice of one of these five items.

so we didn’t grind from hated to neutral? which means once you had done that quest chain, you could farm eggs with no time gate? obviously you needed 280% flying as you said, but again thats a time (gold) sink, not time gate.

Well yeah. The un-happy players will always be the loudest minority(happy ones are too busy playing the game^^). Hence all this “Fix X or i unsub” ultimatum threads are nothing more than a joke to them…

Fair point and well spotted. It was all so long ago.

i agree that some of the way players put their grievances across is not always the best, and also sometimes for reasons that may make no sense. (and rightly so!)

  • but are you really trying to say that no player has a reason to complain about the game in its current state?
  • that its easy for people to pick up new, or after a break?
  • that there is nothing wrong in the game at all atm?

im just saying that blizzard seem to have a direction for the game, NOT THE STORY, that really is a bit of a detriment to many players. the story is theirs. they tell the story THEY want and its up to us to like it or not. but the mechanics, the gameplay, no, that should fit in with the playerbase and not abuse us.

why is it so hard for people to understand some prefer community to clique?

The issue being. Without getting into debate about player numbers so lets just use the term the general “many” play WoW and there are like 100001 opinions on whats good and whats bad. Starting from vastly different wants and complains to very controversial ones like for example:
Multi boxing: Some claim it to be even more evil than the Devil himself and wants it purged in fire and gone from WoW, while others defend it as they were defending their children.
Say simply for the sake of just this argument(and a very silly example):
You say that the grass is too green in-game
I say that the grass is perfect and don’t you dare changing it!

So? How will Blizzard decide if the grass is green enough or not?
Same for other complaints. John A can complain that feature X is the worst addition to the game and remove it RIGHT NOW! John B will argue that its the best feature in the game.

So…what can Blizzard do? Well try to compromise and like any true compromise somebody will ALWAYS end up not happy about it…and making it known on the forums. :rofl:

It wasnt a race as such, you had to follow NPC’s around the island on a flying mount and had to dodge lightning bolts etc, I think there were 5 different levels to complete in total.

Yes when the questline was originally created you had to start from Hated, I think the requirements changed sometime later.

You also had to have the fastest level of flying before the quest became available, and I think the cost back then was 5k gold.
