So what can a casual player do in WoW these days?

I remember playing for a while maybe a year back and all the lower level dungeons were nerfed so hard it wasn't really fun facerolling through them, and the quests are also all GPS-d now.

Is there any fun at all to be had from non-endgame content?

Well it depends on what kind of player you are, and how much time you're willing to invest. Do you want to PUG raids? Do you like collecting shit, being an alt-aholic, or do you want challenging stuff?

Most casuals have characters at the level cap, so most of the activities, whether they be super casual or super hardcore would still be considered end-game as opposed to 2005.

See patch 7.3.5

-----

The darkmoon deck that reduces mana cost now apparantly reduces the holy power, fury, rage cost etc of abilities.. people using it all over to press templar's verdict on every global lol

still major problems with antorus mythic because a lot of the bosses are hitting for 3x the health pool of players so they're not killable even with those damage bugs

actually lots of stuff seems broken

https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/900wiu/blizzard_the_80_patch_is_a_level_of_quality_that/

Am glad that they didn't half the time to kill of everything like they did with the last squish but stuff like level 80-90 mobs having twice the health of 110 mobs is really off

---

I've seen a ~1.15x CPU-limited FPS loss in twilight highlands with the 8.0 prepatch as well as the increase of 1 frame of input lag from losing fullscreen. I really don't appriciate that and am not looking forward to going into Boralus (one of the worst performing cities in the history of WoW) and warfronts (worst performance dips that i've seen on a modern system due to hordes of NPC's fighting) when the game runs like this.

You can only use it once :D

You won't have a good idea of which class you'd actually want to play without more experience in the game and the boost would be committing to a choice and throwing yourself into the deep end.

Honestly i think 8.0 patch week is the worst time in a while to pick up the game. It's good to have the 7.3.5 reworks but everything is a mess now

Anyone leveling a monk notice that RSK (Rising Sun Kick) is a total trap? BoK (Blackout Kick) is superior in every way. They do the same damage until lvl 36, but RSK takes 2x the Chi, while BoK reduces the cooldown of FoF and has a 50% to refund Chi if it gets the killing blow. And then at level 36, RSK does 70% more damage, so it's still less efficient per Chi and using it means you're not reducing FoF cooldown by 2 seconds. It's not until 78 that you get your mastery that discourages you from using the same ability twice in a row. So until lvl 36, RSK is 100% a newb trap. And even after that, you're typically not gonna use it unless you have Chi to waste and want more damage in one GCD. And even when you get your mastery, at low levels of mastery I still don't think it's worth using.

Very weird class design. Do the class designers not care at all if the class design makes sense at low levels?

If some of you need Gelkis Clan Centaur and Magram Clan Centaur rep to exalted from classic, you can get it now by doing quest line in Desolace. Gives you instant exalted after 4 quests.

They haven't done a great job at that, some changes have been made occasionally so that stuff makes more sense (like baselining high level talents or moving them onto a lower level talent row so that they're selectable while leveling) but the lower level balance and design is of far lower quality than the max level stuff

Hi, now that the communities are gone live, I've set up a TL community on EU Horde. (as that is where I play). If anybody wants to join, here is the link:
https://www.worldofwarcraft.com/invite/v9x5bAF3jD?region=EU&faction=Horde
(I hope it works :D )

If a moderator could add this as a moderator note at the top it'd be appreciated. (ps i just copied this line from the note about the spread sheet )

Communities are split between region and faction (they're like guilds without a server lock for doing content with people) so it's hard to run one for something general like TL. A lot of people are sticking to Discord servers for any socialization that goes beyond regions&factions

That's exactly what I was missing. There is no TL guild on my server but doing stuff with TL people who play Horde on EU through the community sounds great.

Yes I levelled one aswell a few months back to get the heritage sets, and they only instance I ever used RSK was if I was on a big pull and wanted the extra damage to confirm a kill and get a health bar. (later on) Spamming blackout is way more efficient.

Scheduled maintenance wednesday for prepatch, then thursday, then friday; after the friday maintenance the server goes down unexpectedly during peak time and takes 5 hours to come back up. This has been a giant clusterfuck

Ok so I know nothing about modern hunters, but I'm leveling one just for nostalgia's sake, and I had a curiosity. In the first tier of BM talents, there's:

Killer Instinct - Kill Command deals 50% increased damage against enemies below 35% health.
Animal Companion - Your Call Pet additionally summons the first pet from your stable. This pet will obey your Kill Command, but cannot use pet family abilities.

So even ignoring the "benefits" of having another pet auto attacking or whatever which probably isn't that important, isn't that basically like comparing "Kill Command SOMETIMES does 50% more damage" to "Kill Command ALWAYS does DOUBLE damage"? Two Kill Commands for the price of one with Animal Companion? Or am I missing something silly

When you pick animal companion your main pet deals less damage so it's not quite as good as it seems. Killer instinct generally outperforms it by a significant amount.

In fact on single-target animal companion is a very slight DPS loss right now.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!
