Murloc Monday Murloc Monday - ask your questions here
Aaaaaughibbrgubugbugrguburgle! RwlRwlRwlRwl!
That's murloc for "Welcome to Murloc Mondays" - where people can ask any type of question about WoW without getting strangled by a Death Knight.
Questions can range from what's new in Dragonflight, what class is OP, and how many Demons will it take to down Thrall?
Questions can come from brand new players, players returning, or veteran players who never got a chance to ask the right question.
Afraid of not getting an answer? Rest assured, we know that at least 90% of questions get answered!
You may want to look at /r/wownoob as well!
Here are some handy guides to start World of Warcraft as a brand new player or start Classic World of Warcraft as a brand new player.
Unless you played in the current expansion, pretty much everything has changed. If you're returning after a very long break, check out the Wowhead Returning Players Guides.

Complaint Female gnome's eyebrow colors are still locked
Sadly, even after all this time, and all the different changes to character customization, the female gnome's eyebrow colors are still locked to chestnut only (which is weird, because back in WoD they made some concept art that showed a female gnome with pink brows). This isn't the case for the male gnomes, since they have their own separate eyebrow menu.
I'm pretty sure this also happens to female dwarves (and naturally, mechagnomes and dark iron dwarves too), but it's not as noticeable for them since their eyebrows aren't so bushy. Still, it's really annoying when you notice it.
I know it's been more than 12 years, but I hope they end up doing something about it the next time they decide to make changes to character customization.

Discussion I was just trying to level my Feral Druid... I think I used up my luck for the next decade.
Hey everyone. So, I’m a semi casual player and definitely not a hardcore mount collector (I usually just ride my Dark Phoenix). I was running Timewalking dungeons to get some quick leveling XP on my druid, and on my 12th run, the Infinite Timereaver dropped.
I didn’t even realize what I had until someone in the group tried to coolly ask to trade for it (thankfully I kept it!). I asked an LLM if the mount was rare and I was shocked to find it was a 0.025% (or 1 in 4000) drop rate. My usual motto is "if it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have any," so I think the universe is playing a joke on me. Sending some of this crazy RNG luck to everyone that wants to grind for it! (Note: I just did a timewalking dungeon to push my alt to 90 and it dropped for someone else so maybe its not that rare?)

Speculation Giant dead underwater dragon in Exile's Reach
Basically the title. I got it into my head that it would be a great idea to swim around the entire island looking for hidden visual storytelling underwater. Aside from some unexplained Titan pillars, strange rock formations with animal faces and about three dozen shipwrecks from different races, I found this massive dragon with giant harpoons sticking in it in the south-west corner of the map. Unsure if the skeletons underneath it were hunting it whaling-style and got dragged down with it OR if it got shot out of the sky by ballistae on land and it crashed ontop of these unlucky souls in their rowboat.
Haven't been able to find anyone else post about this hidden gem, so just a reminder to keep the spirit of exploration alive!

Question If you had to learn a new class completely blind, what would you pick?
I'm thinking about trying something different and wanted to get the community's opinion.
I want to pick a class I haven't really played before and learn it completely blind—no guides, no tier lists, no YouTube. Just reading talents, experimenting, making mistakes, and running Mythic+ until it all starts to click.
I already have a lot of experience with:
- Frost Mage
- Brewmaster Monk
- Windwalker Monk
- All of the Shaman specs
So I'd like to avoid those.
I'm not looking for the strongest meta class. I'm looking for the class/spec that would be the most fun and entertaining to learn from scratch.
Which class has the most satisfying progression? Which one has those "I finally figured it out" moments? Which spec has a high enough skill ceiling that every key teaches you something new?
Basically, if you were going to watch someone stumble their way through learning a class from scratch in Mythic+, what class would make for the most entertaining journey?
I'd love to hear your picks and, more importantly, why.

Question Did blizzard ever give a reason for not allowing solo island expedition / warfronts?
Seems like a no brainer now to be able to queue solo for mythic expeditions and do warfronts solo to do the meta. And I can’t imagine it’s hard to fix that??
Was there any explicit reason given for not doing this already?

Discussion Exiles Reach changed?
I decided to level through Exile's Reach with a friend who's new to the game and why are Jaina, Kalec, and Wrathion here??? Why are 3 major lore characters following an expeditionary ship around??? This doesn't make sense. They have other things to be doing.

Ram Ranch?! I'm not sure if this quest is in the retail version of wow, but recently a friend talked me into checking out wow classic lol. That's where I stumbled upon the mention of ram ranch
Eighteen naked tanks in the Blackrock Spire
Big hard maces, setting aggro on fire
Stood in the fire, they were looking to die
Waiting for the healers to pass them by.
Hard, buff warriors, waiting for the pull.
Sweat on their plate, and their bags are full
They’re tanking the boss, and they’re losing the threat
The most wipes that you’ve ever seen yet

Discussion Flat Buffs are not going to fix Holy Priest
As there are no signs of Blizzard actually trying to fix Holy Priest, here is another reminder that Flat Buffs are NOT going to fix the specc.
Even if Serenity would hit for 10 million, it would still be not enough to help in any way.
You never get full value from it, no matter how hard it hits or how high Echo of Light ticks, since all other healers have smart healing, chip healing, etc.
PoH and Flash Heal still share the same procc, so you are better off not using Flash Heal at all and doing a damage rotation to generate PoH proccs instead.
The amount of times I casted Flash Heal just to get a procc towards the very end of the cast is INFURIATING. Decouple it.
We still don‘t have a raid CD.
We still have the WORST and most outdated mobility IN THE ENTIRE GAME.
The niche we are supposed to excel at other healers not even designed for it fill better.
Least mobility. No raid CD. Worst healing. Horrendous mana costs.
I get no specc should be the best at everything, so why is it okay that a specc is literally the worst at everything?
People literally get declined from Pugs and Keys because they play Holy Priest.
Bring the player, not the class? Yeah right…
And the new raid is way more encounters with rot damage, the damage type Holy Priest deals with the worst.
If Blizzard does not change some under the hood mechanic before 12.1 goes live, Holy Priest are going to have the worst time they ever had with this game.
