guys to gear alts efficiently - I'm not a pro and this is the first "guide" I've ever written for WoW, but if it helps one person to not waste their time doing WQ's for Adventurer gear I'll be happy.
edit - removed requirement for Bountiful delve (thank you flyguy), added Pinnacle Cache quests (thank you Kerensky), added crafted 629 (thank you zappamon)
TL;DR
Prerequisites:
A few hundred gold (for AH greys)
Undermined Achievement/main story completed on main
2000 Undercoin for Wave Scrambler, potentially more for Finnley's Veteran gear
3900 Resonance Crystals for Undermine Quartermaster Champion Gloves, potentially an additional 2600 for Veteran Boots
Renown 14 with Undermine Cartels (for Champion Gloves)
A good amount of rep with TWW factions for crests + valorstones
Optimal Route for fresh 80 to Hero gear in a day:
1. Equip any warbound gear
2. Nightfall event for 3 Vet, 1 Champ piece (not gloves, 2nd ring or crafted)
3. Hallowfall, Azj, Ringing, Isle of Dorn Quartermasters for Crests + Valorstones
4. Skip campaign with Brann, buy Wave Scrambler + missing Vet gear from Finnley
5. Pickup Pinnacle Cache quests - ideally 'Complete 1 Delve' and the Titan Fragments
6. Champ Gloves from Smaks, kill Gally for Enchanted Runed
7. Craft 658 Runed weapon + 629 Weathered for any slot you don't have at least Veteran
8. Siren Isles 658 Ring
9. Upgrade all gear, prio Champ
10. T8 Delve, Wave Scrambler for guaranteed Hero piece drop (+1 more in Vault).
11. Start Running at least T6 M+

How I got 4 alts earning Hero gear (and what I've learned)
Hi all, with my main being capped every week I've taken to creating, levelling, and gearing alts to continue enjoying WoW. For the fastest way to level a new alt (without paying $$$), check out this Earthen levelling guide. With this guide + the associated addon, you'll go from 10-70 in roughly 2 hours of passive playing.
# Pre-Lvl 80 (skip if you're already 80)
Following the levelling guide, you'll run into the issue that you're level 70 but only iLvl 10. There's a minimum iLvl for random Heroics and TW dungeons, so you'll need some basic gear that doesn't require Lvl 80. By far the most time-efficient way to make this happen is buying greys on AH. Anything Moth-Ridden, Begrimed, Distressed or Pierced is fine - the cheaper the better. You'll be replacing very quickly with random gear you get levelling to 80 from Heroics/TW, T3 Delves and WQs (these are the best three options I've found to lvl 70-80).
# Fresh Lvl 80
So now you're 80 with 15 slots of very questionable gear. Ideally you'll want to skip Explorer/Adventurer gear, and get to Veteran/Champion as quickly as possible. Equip any warbound gear you've saved from main.
The first place you'll want to head to is the Nightfall event in Hallowfall. Here you'll pickup 3 dailies and 1 weekly. Go to the zones, break the things, kill the dudes. The 3 dailies give a random piece of Veteran gear, and the weekly event gives your choice of Champion gear on completion. For your Champion piece, don't choose Hands, a second ring, or your first crafted piece (usually a weapon).
If you've farmed any renown on main, you want to visit each of the Quartermasters in the 5 zones. Don't buy their gear because it's S1; outdated. While you're on Isle of Dorn, visit Brann and tell him to skip the campaign. Then go to Finnley, purchase a Wave Scrambler for 2000 Undercoin, and fill in the rest of your gear with whatever Undercoin you have. Undercoin isn't Warbound for whatever reason but you can purchase on your main and put in the Warbank. Finally, take the weekly Pinnacle Cache quests - ideally you get 'Complete one Delve' from the Arathi lady as you'll be doing that anyway.
Visit Smaks in Undermine last - here you'll pick up your Champion gloves (assuming you're renown 14). Then, talk to Paks to begin Liberation of Undermine: The House Loses. Kill Gallywix in story mode, you'll get an Enchanted Runed Crest and Valorstones. Use these to craft a 658 weapon (or whatever your best craft is). If you're missing any Veteran gear and are out of Undercoin, feel free to use some Weathered Crests to craft 629 gear.
Head to the Siren Isles and do the quests for a 658 Cyrce's Circlet. Don't wait for the events to get the gems you need, they're warbound till equipped - purchase on main and transfer over with the bank.
# Hero Gear
If you've followed so far, you'll be in mostly Veteran/Champion gear with a 658 crafted, and 658 Cyrce's Ring. Use the crests and valorstones from quartermasters to upgrade your gear, prioritising Champion track.
Head to any Delve and start it on at least T8. If you mess up and run out of lives, there's no penalty for running out and starting again. Once you reach the Restoration Stone, use the Wave Scrambler - this summons the Underpin. Kick the bombs away, get him to 50% and he'll leave, giving you a Delver's Bounty. Use this to get a Hidden Trove at the end of the Delve, which on T8 and above will contain a Hero 1/6 piece.
Alternatively you can try and get into Mythic Keystones between 3-6. 3 and above will give you a Hero piece in your weekly vault, and 6s can drop Hero at the end of the Dungeon. Personally I would rather do the T8 delve first, as you don't need to interact with others or worry about the key bricking. But if you're confident you can get into keys, or have some friends that can boost you a little, it's not a bad option at all.
Please let me know if there's anything I've missed. I hope this helps you

Sylvanas ☢️ mourning her story
Hello, sorry, I quit the game after shadowlands, I recently came back (as one does) and I still find the scar itching. It’s awful what they did to her story. Even the book. That’s not the dark lady I swore to as a forsaken. The jailer still makes no sense. The way they tried to redeem her by saying “oh her soul is split” yeah, it has been, she still stood up to genocidal maniacs in mop. Her methods are harsh but for someone who knows true death and suffering, made sense to me. For her to commit genocide herself makes zero sense. also ppl who just say “oh she’s just evil and always has been” well they made sure of that didn’t they?
I found wow in a time I became chronically depressed (: and as a depressed young lady who loved fantasy, it’s easy to see how I liked Sylvanas. A strong elven woman who gave her all for her people, yadda yadda Emo goth teen. You get it.
You’re telling me, that strong woman becomes the abuser after her own abuse and swore against it. Thats the weakest character development just for the sake of telling the story of shadowlands.
Oh but now she has the good part of her soul back so it’s fine now 🙄 idk, for me she represented survival and how you can overcome your own trauma in a way, and find the silver lining in life.

I HATE this fight (Underpin)
Yay! I beat him after 7 hours of attempts over two weeks and this fight can burn in hell. There are so many small RNG issues with this fight that makes this a pure annoyance. With Zek'vir it felt like I was making progress, but Underpin? I don't feel like I mastered this fight and got good, I feel like everything lined up to finally not piss me off. In the end he was at about 20% hp and I just burned him down with 3 bots up. In hindsight this didn't feel worth it.
Before anyone asks why my UI is like that, it's because I'm a clicker.

Friends who have passed away on Bnet.
I was looking through my friend's list and realized I have 6 people who have passed away still on my Bnet friend's list, it's weird knowing they'll never log in again, and I can't bring myself to remove them
Do you guys have any friends who are now gone still on your list?
Edit: I've been playing since 2004, they added Bnet friend's list in 2010, so I've had a lot of time to collect friends over the years!

This would be the most fun m+ season if tanks werent this weak
This is basically the first season that I can remember, that tanks are very very distinctively the bottleneck, and its ruining all the fun. Saying this as an arcane main currently pushing 17s, that also plays some tanks (vdh and bear) on lower keys.
The role’s general nerf from DF to TWW was completely unnecessary and highly problematic not only from a supply and que perspective, but gameplay wise as well.
Roughly 30% of my keys (that I have worked a whole afternoon to get to 17) gets depleted bc they get 100-0 zeroed out of the blue. Another 15% of my keys gets depleted on behalf of skip fails (another stupid asf thing to exists in keys). A good 10% goes belly up bc of aggro issues on all except maybe prot warrior, but especially on vdh and bdk.
Does anyone think that this is fun or engaging or anything that they want to engage in? Either as a tank, heal or dps? Has anyone asked for this? Is it true what they stated in the blue post, is this goving healers more agency? Cuz i really dont think so. As a dps and tank player its miserable.
Like imagine getting through the hard part in Cinder, coordinating the 8 caster + hopgoblin pull, just so that the tank randomly gets 100-0 zeroed by I’pa in a global, or loses aggro on a hyena. There goes your whole day of work, please come back tomorrow.
And dont get me wrong I play tanks up to the 12 level too, I am not trying to blame this on them. I believe that most of the 3450 8/8M tanks with 3 titles do know what they are doing almost seemlessly. They still get clapped and they still lose aggro. This is 100% on behalf of Blizz and the completely unnecessary and unasked for nerf betweed DF and TWW.
Fix this shit Blizzard and buff the role overall, its not too late for this season to be one of the bests ever!
