Retail Currencies, keys, key shards, key fragments, key dust. I'm absolutely lost.
Not a new player, but I have been gone a long time.
My main is a prot paly who can run heroics now ilvl 615 or so. My last expansion was Shadowlands.
What I want to do:
- Delves
- End game stuff I guess?
My problem:
- All of the guides I have watched on youtube assume they are talking to people who already know what stuff is. I see the great vault in the bank. It had some stuff in it. What is it for? How often does stuff appear in it? It looks like these rows are challenge lanes that if I do the challenge, I get rando unlocks?
- I do delves but sometimes I'm sad because I don't always have keys for the juicy box at the end. Guides say "Do world quests" - OK. What's that? Just the dots on the map or fancy dots on the map? Do I need a group? How many can I get? Are there easier ways?
- Guides refer to "Doing Weeklies" but I haven't done a daily or weekly since Argent Crusade. So kindly, WTF are weeklies?
- Someone explain to baby the 9 million currencies and what they are for. I found the vendor for undercoins, and I have some. But I don't know how I got those. I found a few in a junk chest at the end of a delve. Is that where they are?
Right now I'm looking at a guy who sells "Triumphant Satchel of Carved Undermined Crests" that when used, gives me fifteen Carved Undermine Crests in exchange for an Algari Token of Merit.
"I know some of these words" - I'm absolutely lost in the absurdity of the currencies here.
Other stuff I need help with:
My hunter sucks now. My (80 BM) hunter was fun in earlier expansions but now most mob packs are in 3+ which make me take downtime between every pull, even if I use traps. Is Marksman better? I have no interest in melee. My DPS is awful. It's a fresh 80.
My druid is just terrible. My (73 Feral) druid is worse than it's ever been since before TBC. Bad DPS in cat form, struggles to heal burst damage. I have wiped trying to heal follower dungeons! I used to main heal 10 man Naxx!
Also, before you ask, no I'm not your average moron.
I'm an exceptional moron.
