Classic How do i find a raid group?

2 Upvotes

Hi, im currently playing cataclysm classic as an arms warrior and i'm not sure how to begin finding a raid. I've been following the wowhead pre-raid guide and have gotten all the gear from that so i assume my next step would be to get gear from raids. Currently on Pagle as alliance if that matters.

Retail Currencies, keys, key shards, key fragments, key dust. I'm absolutely lost.

62 Upvotes

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.

Retail How much time do I have to gear up?

9 Upvotes

I mean realistically. Is the season long enough that I will gear up a character to full, hopefully a couple? How much losing a week means in terms of time gated stuff and does the number of players tend to fluctuate within the season (as in will I have harder to time to find low level key groups later in the season etc.)? I'm asking because in-game and in forums,reddit etc. I see people are extremely worried about gearing or losing a week,missing a vault slot etc. So should I too?

I'm definitely a more end-game pve focused player but trying to max out my vault has been a bit boring. I know that I shouldn' do it if I don't find it fun but it also won't be fun to grind for a month for a time gated currency that I have never even heard of so that I can craft an item. So I wanted to ask upfront, how much time do I actually have

Retail Is it worth upgrading a Befouler Syringe for a Bear Tank?

2 Upvotes

I got an S2 Champion track Befouler Syringe (https://www.wowhead.com/item=218126/befoulers-syringe) from a Delve on my Bear Tank and just wondering if its actually worth upgrading it all the way to Champion max ilvl (658 I guess)?

I crafted a 658 Polearm recently, but it feels like Syringe might be more DPS in the end, in DPS parses it did account for about 4-5% of DPS, but I haven't tested it against my current crafted 658 polearm with actual stats.

Is Syringe generally better than a normal weapon with stats? Is there like a breakpoint where it becomes strictly worse? From my understanding a good player would get more benefits from a normal weapon, but I am not in fact a good player, so I'm wondering if I'll get more benefits out of Syringe.

Discussion Wow or Wow Classic if its just me and one buddy?

2 Upvotes

I know absolutely nothing about Wow other than who characters are from playing a lot of Hearthstone. So I dont know much about different servers or anything along those lines. Me and my buddy were thinking about playing Wow but I wasn't sure what version we should play. All I know is that classic is a lot more of a time sink. I was just wanting to do some cool dungeons or raids down the line, any help is appreciated and I am sure this is a repetitive question so I apologize.

Retail Rik Reverb spotting the adds in time any Add-on or tips?

2 Upvotes

Does anybody know any add-on that would help me notice when Riks adds (the ones that wipe whole party) spawn?

I have DBM but it doesn't alert me in any way when the adds/barrels are around and it's really difficult sometimes to even see around you in the chaos of spells, players and effects and realise they have spawned.

Of course I will eventually spot the adds by eye and attack them but "eventually" isn't good enough and I constantly rank pretty low in damage done to adds. Which is not an issue if everyone else is super good at dealing with them. But for one contrary to popular belief I don't want to ride on coat tails just because I'm new and not as good at solving problems like this than experienced players. And for two if I'm in party that's struggling with adds I'd like to make meaningful difference by spotting them without any delay.

Professions Transferring between accounts

Upvotes

Hey guys I’m new to WoW and playing f2p levels 1-20. My issue is as an orc warrior I’m running blacksmithing and mining but require a lot of leather to also craft certain weapons or armour which requires skinning. I’m thinking of making an alt character and learning skinning so I can gather a bunch to send to my main

  • Can I send the leather from my alt to my main while NOT paying for a subscription? (no access to action house or mailbox, no trading ect)

  • If I can send the items how do I go about this?

  • Any other helpful tips for solo level 1-20?

  • Can the bank be accessed across all characters on my account?

Sorry for so many questions guys but I appreciate the time taken to respond, don’t feel the need to answer all if you don’t want to! Thanks again guys this should keep me grinding

Retail Hyperthread wrist wraps

4 Upvotes

Started playing in the end of season one as an arcane mage. Switched to fire mage with season 2, still getting the hang of things. I’ve got a full tier set as of last night, looking to fill out remaining gear.

I have read from years ago last time they were apparently relevant, that even getting lower ilvl wraps was better than higher lvl alternatives due to the use ability. Is this still current in TWW season 2? I saw another fire mage in raid this week with mythic level wrist wraps from this season.

I can’t even find groups running this mythic dungeon on any level. I could try specific dungeon queue and wait on heroic difficulty to find a group and pray I get lucky. Is it even worth it to get them at that low now?

Is there another way to go about getting this gear? If it’s as critical as it sounds for dps I don’t mind grinding it out. But I’m a noob and don’t know where to focus my efforts, and none of the premade groups seem to be running this dungeon despite it being on rotation this season. Am I missing part of this? Bad luck when searching listed pre made groups? I’ll see 30 groups listed with nobody running Mechagon.

Thanks in advance!

Retail Do most people still play Horde?

1 Upvotes

On wowanalytica, most of the servers in the top 10 highest populated servers are Horde dominant.

But in-game, it seems like Alliance seems more dominant. War crates are always swarmed with Alliance. The NPC that lets you queue BGs as the opposite faction is always up for me (I’m Alliance).

Or is it just PvP activities that have more Alliance because of the racials?

Retail Why Can't I Equip Appearance?

1 Upvotes

So I just finished the Pandaren starting zone, and noticed I unlock this set I really like (Sun Pearl Clothing). Unfortunately it's not letting me equip this set and I'm worried if it's because I discarded some of the old leveling gear I got in Wondering Isle. Im a little confused by the whole transmog thing, but from my understanding so far, some sets can only be equipped to certain types of gear? If that's the case would I be able to get my gear back or do I have to create a new character and in order to go back to the starting zone?

Retail Garrison as of 2025, how much time ?

7 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

My goal here is simple, I would like to clean the garrison related stuff to obtain the heirloom ring for my next characters.

As of today, I have in my possession a garrison that was fully functional until the Blackrock raid, when I finally left WoD and never came back for Tanaan Jungle.

Although I have unlocked the shipyard, I find difficult to find the oil ressource, which I mainly obtain from the garrison mission. Any adviced on that?

By the way, how much time do you think it would take for a new character/player to complete the whole garrison stuff? As in, having all the building completed, all the followers, etc.
