    How Should We Gain Artifact Weapon Power? (Poll)

    Should we gain artifact weapon power from garriso-- I mean Class Hall Tables? OR should we gain artifact power from archaeology?
    Think about it.
    What do Class Halls have to do with collecting artifacts? Nothing.
    What does Archaeology have to do with collecting artifacts? Everything.

    Why is that?

    What about forms of materials, lets put it in terms of wotlk. What if priests need crystalized air and shadow and shamans use crystalized fire and earth. Things you gather via gathering/farming/fishing etc

    That could be a way to make HOLY and IRON Relics.

    Huh?
    I prefer how it is in Alpha - through quests, drops and treasures.

    Oh, but it's not that.
    Followers GIVE YOU artifact weapon power.

    I don't have any missions that have offered me that yet, but that makes sense since I send them out. Are you driving the narrative that this is a bad thing?
    I don't see why ap couldn't be earned through arch, though.

    Now in an ideal world, I'd say give us Artifact Power from doing anything and everything. But just a little bit, like 5 power per thing done.

    But every thing that rewards AP will be mandatory in Legion. So maybe only PvE....

    Artifact Weapon Calculators show (Previous+50) per trait cost.
    So for example, the first point is 100 AP, the second point is 150, the third is 200, so on.
    The end all points end up costing hundreds of thousands of AP.

    I'd rather I earn my own Artifact Power than a follower give it to me.

    At the moment I'm goofing off with a warlock on the alpha. I completed one zone and am a little ways into another. Wandered around a LOT doing profession quests and have so far used the order hall to have a bodyguard handy.
    Level 104. So far, no ap from followers.

    Don't worry. They'll definitely add it. Most of the rewards are placeholders.

    So you are whining about something that does't even exist in game? O.o gg we are getting to new levels on these forums.

    You literally get artifact power through nearly EVERY INGAME ACTIVITY. Why give only these 2 choices?

    Another person who obviously never actually read what the new class halls actually do and saw a few pictures and went "OMFG GARRISON GUISES OMFG I CAN'T READ!!!! BUT GARRISON GUISES"

    MMO-C never fails to surprise me with the lack of comprehension in its posters.

    Okay, but so what?

    What do Class Halls have to do with collecting artifacts? Nothing.
    What does Archaeology have to do with collecting artifacts? Everything.
    The demo warlock artifact isn't even from Azeroth. What would archaeology have to do with it?
    The Ashbringer is around 10 or so years old. What would archaeology have to do with it?

    You're trying a bit too hard to hate on the table. This argument is weak when you face the fact that everything generates artifact power, from drops to raids to dungeons to pvp to quests and so on.
    And World quests could include your professions and even secondary professions, which hasn't been verified. So hey, you can happily dig and still get ap like everyone else.

    It should be mailed to us on a weekly basis for free, with no requirement to do anything.

    I enjoy Archeology in general so yes please.

  17. #17
    ...prepare for raiding through grinding Archeology? What?!

    My answer would have been leveling (questing), dungeons and raids.

    You need absurd amount of artifact power for the moment for just one artifact weapon. So it make sens that you get artifact power from everything you do, Questing, pvp, dungeons, raids, etc.


    Doomhammer is from The orginal Drenor, soooo, Archaeology make no sens for that.

    You do get artifact power from everything, ugh this is the worse part of alphas/betas the dumb people who aren't in it and don't understand what is going on.
