Pet Peeve: The Undying

Argent Dawn

As much as I love pet battles, it caused pain in my soul to see Gnomeregan reduced to a pet battle dungeon.

Because we weren’t made robotic to begin with, we’re fully natural flesh.

Peeve: people already adopting the mindset of a timed mythic run with mechagon when pugging.

It’s a new dungeon. There will be mistakes. You can read the tacs but still mess up. People need at least go chill first week if they’re pugging. We’re all learning together.

From what I’ve had time to sample, it’s pretty fun. It feels like a mini raid. The overworld bit is a bit of meh recycling but the boss fights are pretty fun and frustrating without being toxic (pun intended for gunker)

People bringing timeruns/timer mentality into places that has no time-limit should stop playing with other people. It’s so infuriating.

Glad you like them.

I’ve seen many wearing the starting outfit in all sorts of colours.

Speaking of Mechagon… is anyone in for a chill, Argent Dawn-only run through the new dungeon somewhere during the evening?

EDIT: Alliance-only, to clarify.

11697

Just completed it.

It’s not bad. But only really the second half is interesting imo. The first half has ok bosses mechanically but visually it’s just more of the last few weeks.

11698

The whole starting outfit is ugly. Just the shoes cause it seems like their thing. Just look at the ones in Fanow.

Didn’t get to finish in my run, we were in there for just over a couple of hours but our dps just wasn’t up to snuff for the 2 Gnome bosses. So didn’t really see much of the dungeon beyond the first few bosses. Looking forward to trying again though. Doubt I’ll get it this week due to lockout though (I think that’s a thing?)

I’d like to do chill Argent Dawn alliance PvE but tonight probably isn’t good for me.

11701

I think it is only mythic raids that have an ID lockout, mythic dungeons are just bosses killed. But I honestly have no idea.

Exactly. You’ll just be unable to loot the bosses you’ve killed, but you’ll be able to enter a fresh group, do the dungeon with then, and loot the bosses you haven’t killed.

11703

So I can join others but get no loot for bosses I’ve done? Hope that’s the case. I’d like another go before reset. I want the sweet staff transmog because after a bazillion runs SoO still refuses to drop the staff from Siegecrafter.

Count me in!

11705

Have fun! I will be doing it on my shaman as well tomorrow with the Fallen Leaf. But if we have empty slots I may poke in here, eh?

11706

Pugging the raid is much harder. I have yet to get into any groups.

I have 410, but still haven’t found a new weapon. I guess that means I just get passed over.

11707

Oh, uh, will ilvl 398 be a problem for Mechagon?

I bring healthstones and a positive mindset, tho.

11708

For mechagon it should be fine. I recommend making your own group if you have trouble, it’s just a 5man so it shouldn’t be that hard to lead.

For raids, though? It’s brutal. I see a lot of pugs even demanding cutting edge from BfD.

It seems to be a lot easier if you are a tank though. I just got into a pug, with some difficulty, at 410. They invited a 397 tank without a moment’s hesitation. DPS is ridiculously oversaturated nowadays.

11709

Oof lucky I got 3 tanks and 2 healers then, shame for my gnome warlock and mage and draenei hunter then, tho…

Peeve related to the new mythic+ season: people already demanding raider.io score for their runs.
