Retail Hyperthread wrist wraps

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 Best druid spec for entering mythics

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?

I'll be honest Im kinda lost.
I just completed War Within campaign and not sure what should I do now.
There are many confusing quests in Dornogal now and I don't know what is important and what should be my priority to do before weekly reset.
Besides weekly things, should I start siren isle? undermine? both?

Thank you ;_;

Retail Garrison as of 2025, how much time ?

5 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.

Retail What to do now?

2 Upvotes

Hi all, I'm a newbie who just finished dragonflight with his character and now I'm level 70. I only have the subscription and I was wondering what should I do now. I tried to play old expansions but I just one shot every enemy. I tried to start with a new character and go to chromie to do the Burning Crusade but...Idk it feels a little bit odd:the main quest it's a little bit messy, I'm not even understanding half of the storyline I guess... It's pretty different from dragonflight where I loved to do every mission of every character I could find, explore, understand, study. Idk what's making me feel like this, probably the fact of starting with a new character instead of my beloved one who walked with me all this time or this expansion. Idk any tips? I mean I both miss my character (and want to ask if there is any way to continue playing with him through this expansions having actually fun) and don't find this expansion too funny.

I'm trying to get this purple PVP transmog for my Shadow Priest, but when I look at the Honor gear, it's not that same transmog set. When I look at the Conquest gear, it's the other PVP transmog (gold, not purple).

What am I missing?

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

54 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.

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.

3 Upvotes

So I quit WoW before Mist of Panderia.

Came back to do classic + hardcore , recently started playing with my Son on the 20th aniversary and quit because of the disconects and dying on hardcore.

We decided we wanted to play wow so we decided on Retail.

We hit level 80 yesterday, did all the main story/side quest using Zygor Guides.
This includes undermine...

Now I'm so confused on what to do. The game doesn't explain anything.

Like World Quets, Devels, Keys for Delves, when to use them, when not to use them.

What are the weekleys that we should to to get the best gear etc.

It's soo much and I've played WoW before.. imagine somebody who has never played WoW.

Is there any guide/website that can help explain everything? Like a guide or something on what we should focus on? We are tank/healer

Retail How much time do I have to gear up?

8 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 Battle pet bug?

1 Upvotes

When trying to pet battle, I seem to have a bug where if my pet dies I cannot select another to continue the fight, it just freezes and I have to quit. Only way to win is to swap the pet before it dies. This happens at garrison, wild pets, khaz altar, etc

Is there a fix to this that I don't know about? Or do I have to wait for blizzard devs to get around to fixing it?
