I got more bothered with the weekly quest for the 1st dungeon being lowered to 200 badges. Normally you can do 10 runs on alts (just the first one) and get 5000 badges…or is it just for these 7 weeks ? No idea, it was just annoying !
Intentionally done for “player retention”… they inflated the prices of everything added, and there’s loads for each expansion.
I noticed that today I wanted that new mount lol, guess not, maybe next time this expansion hits TW
That said, when do we get BFA and SL?
Alright, I runned with my shaman alt for Wotlk TW. ( Halls of Lightning)
One tank DH was toxic.
Since I tried fast speed, since this DH is insane faster like zoomie and pull all mobs.
Happen close where annyoing mobs make my shaman get rooted or asleep from mobs.
Two players died since I cant heal them from asleep/rooted. Tank started faulted me “why afk”. But I dont get kick since I speaked.
The best solution is for Blizzard to unlock follower dungeons to all expansions and be done with it. Those who want a more relaxed run solo or with friends to queue for the follower dungeons.
we help poor people in desperate times when there is so many games on the market to save valuable minutes when spinnin our guns for ya folks
I disagree with the idea of removing level 10/11 twinks (and others). They play a crucial role in World of Warcraft, particularly in keeping older expansions alive. Their activity helps sustain the Auction House by farming green, blue, and epic items, and they support old professions by purchasing legacy enchanting and jewelcrafting materials, among others. Removing twinks would mean erasing a part of the game.
Moreover, WoW is already an MMO that tends to “throw away” its old content. Unlike other games where past expansions remain relevant and integrated into progression, here they quickly become obsolete. Twinks are one of the few communities that continue to explore and engage with these older contents. Guides like Beti’s 10s Guide demonstrate how structured and immersive this playstyle is—it’s truly a “game within a game,” much like pet battles.
Let’s be honest: who, besides twinks, still takes the time to explore old dungeons, grind reputations (for gear), or engage deeply with past expansions? The vast majority of players focus only on three main aspects of the game:
- Raids, catering to the elite players,
- Mythic+ dungeons, the primary activity for most of the player base,
- Chasm, often used for gearing up,
- PvP, a large community but rarely highlighted.
The rest of the game is often neglected or rushed through without much thought.
Personally, I have farmed over 50 TWW dungeons with my twink this week, and not a single person has complained. On the contrary, everyone benefits:
- The twink farms their gear and mounts.
- The level 80 player completes their five dungeons quickly.
- The low-level player gains experience at a rapid pace (3-4 minutes per dungeon).
Everyone wins, yet, as always, the silent majority remains unheard.
If the issue is paid boosting services, then tackle the cost of the character boost—reduce sesame price instead of targeting twinks. If the concern is a lack of class knowledge, ask Blizzard to implement own progressive XP restrictions in % to encourage players to experience each expansion properly. And if twink speed bothers you, just buy speed potions from the Auction House!
Twinks invest time optimizing their gear, selecting the best enchants from each expansion, and fine-tuning their builds. They are 100 times more prepared than some players who randomly mash their keyboard in dungeons. Instead of trying to kill their fun, let them play and enjoy the game their own way.
No, they don’t.
On a minor scale, yes.
Yeah, i mean, you’re right, those who are leveling their professions absolutely need to sell their crafts, and without twinks, they wouldn’t earn those 100-150 gold coins… Such a terrible waste !
But that’s only if you don’t have another high level character to play with and gather those materials you speak about, and most (i’m not going to say all) twinks have a high level character on the side.
Yes, like 1-2% of the game…
Oh i don’t know… Maybe people who wants to earn most of the achievements ? Or maybe those who want to collect unique mogs and mounts for example ?
But surely they’re not as many as the amazing twink community…
And yet, the topics complaining about twinks in time walking keep appearing.
Maybe people want to play the game ? And running after a twink that is rushing to the end of the dungeon while barely keeping aggro doesn’t count as playing.
Of course, because everyone wants to buy potions to do a dungeon !
Yeah sure, let’s pretend the guides don’t exist and you’re doing everything by yourself…
Are you a genius ? I mean, who would’ve thought that a tiny community playing with maxed out character could be more prepared than some others in the entire player base…
Instead of trying to kill the fun of people that are trying to play the game, go play in battlegrounds, that’s what twinks were made for.
Oh and btw, people are not asking for twinks to be deleted, they’re asking to remove the access to time walking for the twinks.
You’ll still be able to farm the dungeons, it won’t be time walking but the difficulty for you will be the same
But i guess you don’t want that, the tw are there for you to show off, look at you pressing w and rushing forward killing (almost) everything with your 2 skills, impressive !
Fully agree - my thoughts too.
Gearing a twink is a fun endeavor - in an everchanging rescaling of the world - the community keeps coming up with new "BiS"es -
and twinks are the only reason some old world gems are selling well. There is your gold making opportunity for example.
If you want a group without twinks - open custom lfm or legacy lfm or dungeons and make a group - find 5 ppl not-twinking and have a long boring waste of time run.
Yep, reposted by the same 2 people on alts. GG wp
what a dim witted take - me and my buds use TW twinks to help the other people in the group (us) complete the weekly TW quests on chars faster - so one logs the twink others log their 80s and we just smash thru the dungeons saving our sanity in an otherwise boring grind.
I bet there is someone loving to “Show off” but people do this for a purpose - be it farming the mounts/badges/gear/quest/whatever.
How is it faster to have to do 10 dungeons with a twink than 5 dungeons without a twink? If you all stayed on the characters you are interested in doing the TW weekly on, you’d be done faster. The only case it helps you to rotate on twink alts is to be 6 or 7 people so that you do it like 2 twinks + 3 high-level characters, but even in this case it’s still more cumulative effort from all of you.
I keep forgetting how dense people are. You created an overcomplicated scenario in your head and got mad at me over that lmao.
Our mains are DPSers, like rogue or mage. With a twink healer we can queue insta. As a result we run 10 faster than 5 as duo dps queue with 5-15 min queues. Why not queue as heal alts then you might ask? Well then why not use a twink that can 1 shot things?
Twinks can literally cut the time of the dungeon in half - as a result you also get 2x number of badges as a result.
But that would require you to actually think. No surprise so much dumb takes are spewn all over this forum.
I havent seen a twink since an apparantly ban wave of these.
Another imaginary scenario
there was a mistake ban wave reverted very fast - nothing really changed.
Ok, but i still havent seen a twink since😃
You could have easily explained it without the insults, but we can’t expect decency from people whose only achievements are in virtual worlds, can we?
No, I couldn’t if you start your post with dunking on me and trying to paint me as a fool*. You give toxic treatment and you get one back - that’s pretty simple.
- your take on me was basically “u dum dumm u do 2 times as much work when u can do half as much omg lol”
On my post I explained why I considered your idea of being less-effective for your group than staying on your mains. The fact that you didn’t provive your argument directly and instead went defensive because you considered it an attack on your playstyle further reinforces that you are very fragile of your online persona and achievements.
And you making statements like this further reinforces the notion you have troubles connecting dots and seeing actual causation lines.
You are using some rethorical fallacies here - you make a dumb statement and when clearly and concisely proven “Extremely Wrong TM” you are trying to play a victim card and sprinkle extra unrelated insults from yet another projected and imaginary scenario you created about me*.
- (I wil llet myself clear up some insults you threw at me - there is no achievement in running or creating twinks - its just fun/efficient activity. I have no real consistent online persona - much to many forum users’ chagrin I don’t even use a consistent “Avatar” which somehow pisses people off. Nothing makes sense re. your claims - it’s like this infamous question of “Have you stopped beating your wife yet, sir?”
You want to keep this going? Ok.
- You made a statement
- I made a counterargument without insults, but providing a point of view that initially appeared to me of being more effective.
- You didn’t counterargue in good faith by pointing out the mistake in my line of thinking, but you directly started insulting.
I am not painting myself as a victim. In fact I admit when I am wrong, like a functioning adult, as it has been shown in multiple other discussion on these forums. And I admit I was wrong in this case too. But you still have to spew insults because that’s the only way you have learned to win arguments.
I won’t continue this.
lol whatever lets u sleep at night, bub
