I thought y’all were exaggerating…
Higher keys are way better as a healer. I’d done all 2’s to get familiar with the mechanics and almost every run was a struggle. Tons of deaths, people not kicking, standing in bad, etc.
Then I decided to try to “push” my own key and got all the way from a 2 Rookery to a 10 Priory! Hardly any deaths and a LOT fewer heart attack “everyone’s about to die” moments.
If you’re a healer and you’re intimidated to move up the keystone ranks - definitely give it a try!

Liberation of Undermine's trash I think is the worst raid trash we have ever had.
I swear normal raid reclears are more killing trash than killing bosses. in pugs, my god, the amount of random trash that gets pulled makes me not want to do this raid sometimes. Hopefully future raids are less... insane

Why is resto shaman the only healer that uses mana
See title. I'm close to 3k IO on my r sham, and I play ALL the other healers and on every other one I don't ever have to worry about drinking or mana even once. Going into this expansion Blizzard said they wanted to make mana matter. I guess for only a single class? what gives? Tanks are generally just confused having to face only one class that needs to drink between pulls its absurd.

probably quit instantly after being forced to play in the Maw or Oribos. Any completely new player that somehow ends up in shadowlands instead of dragonflight which was 10 times better will just have a miserable time.
Please for the love of returning or new players that havent played shadowlands, please let us atleast visit the zones, i dont understand why so much is locked behind the entire storylines.

Blizzard’s WoW report system is broken and easily abused
I mainly play M+ in WoW and usually pug solo. I’ve had my chat turned off for 99% of the run (except for the start), for obvious reasons.
Once you get into higher keys (13+), it feels like most people are only running for Rio, not for completion. And if the key doesn’t get timed, it seems like some players just mass report the entire group out of frustration.
Now I’ve apparently received a chat ban for “inappropriate communication” – even though I literally didn’t type anything. I’ve heard similar stories from friends and guildmates too.
Is this just how it is now? Are people abusing the report system when things don’t go their way? Or is Blizzard’s auto-system just totally broken?

I hate having to do skips in m+
I know skips are not mandatory, but without them the timer is very tight. Bubbles skip on Floodgate that you can only do if the tank has shadow meld, Skips in Theater, Workshop, Motherlode, Darkflame, etc. I hate that people will always try to do it and someone will walk too close or have a pet that will run through them (some pets are procs and you can't dismiss them). It's so annoying to lose keys because people can't do a skip.

I was sent two 655 BoE's in the mail.
Worth about 1 mil gold. The problem is I didn't see who sent them to me. I have no idea if I earned them, was sent them by mistake, or have someone I owe a huge thank you to.
I've always been gold poor in this game so I feel like I pulled the best Monopoly chance card ever here...but it just feels a little too good to be true.
Does anyone have any idea how I could I find out who sent me these?

I play this game for M+
Amidst all the negative posts about how the M+ system or its community fails to deliver an enjoyable experience to the players, I want to praise it for the amazing times I personally often have. Yes there are times that aren't few when the key gets bricked first pull or the tank decides to fuck off once someone dies or the dps fails miserably to do mechanics or simply not pump enough. And Yes there are times when I absolutely hate the shit out of people for behaving like straight out psychopaths. But, there are times when everything is just perfect, tank knows their routes, healer is a clutch master, fellow dps pump hard, and everyone is in this flow state of predetermined unplanned order of interrupts, and we're all moving together between pulls buffing each other, and no one dies to easy mechanics and if someone does they instantly get revived and get back on track like nothing happened, and I'm just there enjoying this gushing adrenaline rush with my eyes wide open scanning every mob and every cd while having one eye always at the dps meter for more incentive to pump even harder, with electrifying music blasting in my ears that only drives me further to perform better and enjoy the fuck out of every thing in the run. These times and the euphoric feeling of timing a 13+ key with more than 4 mins to spare is by far the strongest reason why I play this game. I love M+ and I love playing with randoms who know this game like I do and are clearly looking for the same experience I am. I love being a part of giving people a smooth exciting epic run just like I like to have one.

Hold off on doing keys today (inevitable DDOS due to onlyfangs raid and soda streaming it)
Past few weekends the servers have been DDOS due to the attacker trying to get their raid killed. Honestly don’t know why they keep attempting to do this when the result is always going to turn out the same but beware of doing keys since you’ll get DC’d and the key bricked

Playing through Shadowlands as a returning player has got to be the worst thing i've ever done in the game and something needs to be done about it.
I've played this game since TBC Launch, all the way through WotLk, Cata, MoP and WoD. I quit after and returned now. While i'm having a blast with TWW right now, i decided i find this "Deepstar Aurelid" jellyfish mount super cool. I research how to get it, i buy the stupid fish for 75k and naively thought, hey i just need to go to zereth mortis to fish up this rare.
Oh boy, was i wrong.
Never would i have imagined "just going to zereth mortis" would end up being the absolute worst thing i've ever done in this game. And i farmed Netherwing Reputation in TBC camping for eggs and i also did endless argent tournament dailies in northrend.
It turns out, when you have never played shadowlands, you have to finish the entire 4 zones completely from the start. And no, this is not even the bad thing. I was like, alright, cool lets do that. The Zones look quite cool, but thats about it. The quest design is literally horrendous. The quest chains consist 30% of speaking with NPCs, 30% of escorting quests that take forever because the NPCs walk like a snail, 20% cinematics and 20% of actual fighting stuff. Great.
In between you randomly have to return to "Oribos" which i can not believe, is that actually the main city of shadowlands? Did people really hang out there during that expansion? This has to be a joke right? A city, that consists of 2 platforms which i have to always take a portal, with no flying and half of the areas dismounting me completely? Every corner looks the same boring. This cant be it, i'm missing something here right? Someone please help me on that one. Also i cant just use my mount to fly to other zones, i have to use the flightmaster. What is this, vanilla wow?
Anyway, after finishing all 4 zones i still had no way of accessing zereth mortis. I spend hours researching on wowhead what exactly i have to do to unlock it. I had to choose a covenant, whatever that even is i dont understand. Then there is anima and renown and another skill tree for another companion, whatever, i dont even know what all of this is. I have to quest more and more. Did people actually do all that as endgame content? Random covenant quests?
Well, then i have to follow some questline to unlock another storyline, to then be able to take quest x so i can unlock storyline z. This all took hours upon reading wowhead comments because NOTHING of this is said anywhere in the game of course.
Now we got to the worst part. The Maw... I dont even. I dont even know what to say. Was Blizzard trolling there? Like are you serious? A Zone that you randomly go into throughout the campaign sometimes, that doesnt even let you MOUNT AT ALL. WHAT. So i'm walking like a snail as a warrior, doing random storylines with bad quest design. Half of the shit in the maw is so bad explained and designed i had to read wowhead comments for every 2nd quest.
Also a side note, why in the world does shadowlands have so many parts of the game where you're dismounted? Its not only Oribos and the Maw. Its everywhere in the questzones aswell, every single hub has a big building, tree or cave where you have to walk inside forever. Did they try to encourage walking in this expansion!? I dont get it. Nowhere else have i ever expierenced it this bad.
So... here i am. I have played through this shitty questing and storyline experience for almost 5 days now. And i am still not in zereth mortis. Like come on man. I get it, if you want stuff from the expansion, you gotta play the expansion. Okay, i understand. But going to a zone!? Just let me fly there man. Why do i have to play the whole expansion just to go to a zone. When i go to northrend, outland, kalimdor or wherever i dont have to play 5 days just to go somewhere, i will mount up and just fly there. Isnt this the purpose of an open world?
The whole experience of shadowlands so far was so bad, that i think if i had played during that, i would've
On last boss in The Rookery if you fall down, your body should teleport up to the platform so you can be CRed.
This mechanic works in other dungeons or raid bosses so I don't see why It shouldn't work here. Thoughts?
