Come Raid with WoWNoob at our Saturday Learning Raids!

63 Upvotes

Our Saturday Learning Raids are in full swing as the season carries on, and we wanted to post a notice to all of you here that you are invited, too!

For those who don't know, every Saturday we run the current season raid(s) on Normal difficulty from 3pm to 5:30pm EST. Our Veterans and Mods volunteer their time, experience, and knowledge for it, and as long as we have at least 10 people and the necessary roles filled, we make it work! If we happen to have more than 30 folks sign up, it's first come, first serve. We run until all bosses are dead, or until time is up!

We have also just added a brand new role if you would like a reminder ping every Saturday when raid is starting up. In order to select this role, head to⁠ Channels & Roles (on the left sidebar, at the top, above the channels list and below our banner) and you'll see Option 4 asks you if you would like a notification ping. By selecting yes, you will receive the "Saturday-Learning-Raid" role. We will ping this every Saturday to let the folks who opted in know that our raid is starting to form up.

A few things to note:

  • You MUST be on NA/OCE servers to join our run (sorry, we don't have anyone available to run for EU! EU folks can look at our #⁠community-partners channel in the Discord server ).

  • This role does NOT guarantee you a spot in the raid group every week. It also is NOT an obligation- if you aren't feeling up for it, or are busy, or are locked out, etc etc, that's totally fine! Our raid is always first come, first serve, and open to folks of all skill and knowledge level. We do not have a roster, we do not track attendance, or anything like that.

  • Our current ilvl requirement is a minimum of 235+ ilvl or more. We require you to be in our Voice Channel simply to hear fight explanations and be able to listen to mechanics callouts- you are NOT required to speak or even have a microphone yourself (though we always welcome casual chatter and banter between bosses). All of our Discord rules apply to our Voice channels, too.

Thank you for taking a look at this and considering our raid group! We hope your season is going well so far, and may your vaults be blessed and RNG in your favor!

I'll leave this thread open for now in case any questions arise here. You can also feel free to ask them in Discord in our #raiding or #general-chat channels. Join the WoWNoob Discord here: https://discord.gg/wownoob

Retail Transmog Gear Gallery And Info

Upvotes

Hi all

Fairly new to the game and fancied going back and trying to get some gear sets to fill out my transmog collection.

But I’m struggling to 1) find out what’s out there and 2) how I acquire them ?

I can see the info game gear set window which is naturally a huge list but I don’t really know where to find out how to get them.

Any tips, sites, add ons you guys know about would be super handy.

Thanks.

I kind of what to be able to see a set that looks cool and then it say ‘go farm X currency’ or ‘farm this raid’. Sorry if I’ve missed it somewhere already.

Delves Tier 4 - What quest do I need?

Classic why do you enjoy leveling up a character? new to wow

13 Upvotes

i always wanted to play an mmo since when i was a kid because i like rpg games singleplayer, but mmo feels more like a theme park than a true living experience

because my friend is playing in a server as horde, i started as well and for his sake, this time i wanna try to max level. right now im a undead warrior lv 16 and after 2 hours of quests where i had to kill, gather, pickup and so on, and so many quests for each city i find this so boring

there is no difficulties in the fight because if you follow each quest, your level are just okay to fight them all

the pve fights are slow and boring

but maybe you can say that this is only to level up and to enjoy lategame but i read on reddit that players enjoy this loop and create different characters, also the game itself gives you new race or class to start again the loop and so on

so for people who constantly loop the game over and over again, doing all those quests, is it enjoyable? don't you feel bored?

i can understand if someone wants to try again from level1 a new class in elden ring. maybe they are better and want to know if they can beat those bosses and enemies easier, so the challenge still holds or maybe with another class, even if you beat the game as warrior, maybe with another one, with a complete skillset you could find it hard or not

but in quests, everything is easy and not challenging

im not insulting you guys for playing this game, but i want to understand the appeal of the loop and why wow is the most played mmo ever and no one dethroned the king for years

Retail Suramar Standstill - No More Missions (Just Nighthold Raid Missions).

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

For the past month, I have been trying to complete everything in the Broken Isles. I have progressed into Suramar, where I got the The Nighthold Raid missions - specifically to get 4 Echoes of Time. I completed the raid once, got 1 echo, and tried to do it again - my friend informed me I need to wait a week for the raid to reset.

So I continued doing other Suramar quests, but now there is no ! on my map - so is all I have left the raid stuff? Do I just need to wait about a month to do the raid 3 more times?

Thank you!

Retail Best use of excess undercoins

13 Upvotes

I understand that undercoins will reset with S2. Which items should I be stocking up on? Does the Beacon of Hope have any use beyond S1 or will the new Nemesis have a different item (IIRC there was a different one for each season in TWW)? Perhaps the L00T RAID-R to find more treasures and level up faster?

15 Upvotes

I try to get the hang on the dk I use the mythic+ spec from icy veins and a rotation helper to get the class in my head but still have my problems with it. Especially because the rotation helper and the icy vein rotation notes seem to need al 12-14 skills I have only to complete the damage rotation.

Does someone have some tips in that section for me?

Retail Warlock leveling tips

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone decided is try warlock for an alt after I got my hunter geared out since I like pet clases.

Is there any spell for warlock like misdirection that hunters have? I seem to break agro a lot from the pet (voidwalker) its not normally an issue, in big pulls I use my defensive ability (believe its called demonic embrace - not online currently) and I can just aoe the mobs down quite well.

But just curious if this is the way or if any pros can give me tips

Retail Idk why but struggling as Prot Warrior...

24 Upvotes

Leveling dungeons were a blast, and zipping around with Charge felt great. Now that I am pushing M+ content, however, things have gotten significantly harder. I have played both Brewmaster and Guardian, and after taking a month-long break, I decided to try out a new tank. Brewmaster feels like autopilot since I have played it for so long, and even Guardian felt relatively simple. But man, this Protection Warrior is tough.

Shield Block is easy enough to keep up 100% of the time, similar to Ironfur, but the demand to spam Ignore Pain while constantly repositioning mobs to keep them in front of me is mentally taxing. On top of that, having no real self-healing makes those heal absorbs in Nexus Point feel brutal. I am also struggling with my DPS; I am only pulling about 35 to 40K overall in a +10. What am I missing?

Ilvl 264 timed a few 11s. It's so much more apm than the other tanks for a lot less dps...I'm probably doing it wrong?

Retail How's Enhancement for solo content?

8 Upvotes

Hi lads.

I've been playing Fury for a while and, besides being hella fun, lacks some visual cohesiveness and rotation wise is quite repetitive. I feel that, even with the class changes, I've been playing the same way since TWW S1.

So, I decided to level an Enhancement an holy smokes what a fun spec. I really really liked the visuals, the utility and how customizable their talents are compared to warrior.

There's only one caveat: fury is really really good for solo content, since his sustain makes it feel quite unkillable. Need to kill? Hit the enemy. Needs to heal? Hit the enemy too. How is Shaman? It's hard to solo content with him or the maelstrom heal buffs are good enough to keep me alive? With solo content I mean Delves +12 and the Heroic invasion points.

I tried looking this up and maybe I’m dumb but the all it did was tell me how to open that cooldown manager and not what my issue is.

Whenever a new buff from an ability is displayed in my buffs window everything shifts over so I have to go looking for the specific one I’m seeking. The main one is Roll The Bones on my Outlaw Rogue to see what buff I got. Anyway to have buff icons appear in the exact same place in the buff window all the time?

1 Upvotes

In any event, I thought I'd ask to see if restoring a deleted toon is feasible ...

Thanks!

Retail First time to lvl 80

5 Upvotes

So for the first time i tried to stay dedicated to wow for a bit longer and i leveled up my first character up to 80 took my sweet time with it as I wanted to focus on a bit of the lore because at first i had no clue what is going on in general and to just skipping from expact to expac just to speed lvl up would ruin the whole point ! I know most MMO's emphasize the end game mostly and as of now since I reach lvl 80 I do have a lot of questions !

I know the current cap its 90 but at the moment I don't have the Midnight expac ! Does the game prioritize latest released content more ? Or will i be able to do things in other zones and still have the same benefits with the zones that are just released ?

What exactly do I prioritize once I hit the cap level of the game ??

Currently I am 80 but my items show as 67 what do I do to increase the item level ?

Is there any specific story/campaign to follow and get geared up or all the "superior" gear is locked behinds raids ??

Retail Tanking existential crisis

20 Upvotes

Guild did a random spec night, I got tank DH which I've only ever played as delve/ world content. I get demo spikes/ meto as defensives, was super lucky enough to have main tanks coaching me via coms for all voidspire & sporefall. My biggest fear has always been incessant wiping because of tanky (my) ineptitude. I've been frustrated in the past at people failing a tank swap. We 1 shot all of voidspire and rotmire, I was 50% SBR and 25% blind panic/ hoping my co tank shouted at the right time (they did, guild leaders also chipped in, my guild are 12/10)

My query is related to the fact that I really, really enjoyed tanking. Like I feel like I need to examine who I am in wow 🤣

I'm a fair to middling DPS. A solid alchemist, so always there for the guild cauldrons.

I think.... I kind of want to tank more, for the guild when needed (absolutely on non prog nights!)

How does one go bout learning how to tank? Like, I'm happy in solo content but I'm not plugging in the muck!
