Silithus questline has to be weekly... why blizz whyyy

[Doomchicken]

Lol.

It's a weird thing, though. I don't think they even did anything with the Succubus model at all this patch.

Definitely odd. I had a look through a few pages back to see any mentions and unless I'm blind I can't see any mentions of it either. Very strange.

*Checks twitter and sees that all Weekly Quests and Rare Elite World Quests grant Argussian Reach rep now.*

*Logs in and sees the amount of WQs in Mac'aree doubled.*

Thank you Blizzard.

Can they please give us the upgraded version for the archaeology Silithus Mount too?

If that January 30th pre order thing is correct, would make sense. Silithus quests today, next week more quests introducing the conflict and BG of Seething Shore and then Horde and Alliance turn to Allied races.

Also, I believe all future story content will be seen for the first time? And was not on PTR?

[Seramore]

As was brought up a few months ago, there's no real need to point out various PTR updates that are in between patches. Blizzard constantly applies updates to the PTR that they then bring on live for various fixes or other things (like the movie weapon mogs in WoD).

Also has anybody leveled any of their alts yet? How is the actual experience gain? I know they made mobs harder to kill, took a bit longer than it did before the patch to kill the Monk daily quest guy.

[TheramoreIsTheBomb]

There aren't anymore quests iirc. Just BG and Allied races left.

Transmog appearances randomly disappeared from people's inventories, old raids were scaled along with old content and made near impossible to solo when they were easily soloable yesterday, "character not found" errors all around, Succubus model turned into a checkered cube.

Oh my god, how inept can they get.

That testing. For which they had a public invite. That testing. That missed a thing as huge as this.

They are just making themselves look like complete idiots. Lazy, inept, unqualified babies who can't do effing anything.

[Aruzan]

It looked like it.

Did it look like this?

[Ningjinq]

That were datamined and/or playable on the PTR. For instance I don’t think any breadcrumb quests were found which certainly will be needed for the allied races and artifact retirement. And I don’t think they’ll put the Bg up without at least a breadcrumb quest to go with it.

“The Seething Shore will become available as the story in Silithus unfolds.”

They can implement quests server side.

I'm definitely sad I missed this one. Seducing random quest mobs with a floating cube just sounds far too fun not to do.

Actually, I found the scaling table:

Along with all of the leveling and XP changes, the health of NPCs (including bosses in old raids) have been increased.

Vanilla - 288% increase @ lvl 63. 25% at lvl 10, 119% @ lvl 20, 183% @ lvl 30, 222% @ lvl 40, 263% @ lvl 50
Burning Crusade - 261% increase @ lvl 73, 310% @ lvl 65
Wrath of the Lich King - 237% increase @ lvl 83, 291% @ lvl 75
Cataclysm - 185% increase @ lvl 88, 228% @ lvl 85
Mists of Pandaria - 341% @ lvl 93
Warlords - 92% increase @ lvl 103
Legion - Same

Who THE F thought this was a good idea?

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Apparently using Orb of Deception on Panda can randomly change you into an allied race. Allied race pic https://imgur.com/a/styU5

But they're not in 7.3.5… how could this be?! /s

For those who didnt see it, there is a storyline in Silithus, a 5 chapter storyline. So yeah, we got stuff to do... weekly for sure.

[Ningjinq]

Where is that?

Isn’t that for the low level quests though? All zones show chapters now.

The alliance epilogue cinematic is so stupidly human.
My god, just rename the faction to humans and friends already.

Yup. You can really see the difference between the Alliance and Horde in their cinematics.

Humans and their loyal sidekicks in the background for the Alliance.

A meeting of all the Horde’s races for the Horde where they don’t blindly trust each other.

All that said, the prominence of Baine in that cinematic has me concerned Blizzard are grooming him for warchief.

[Nathanyel]

Kinda like how America uses Fahrenheit which is based on human bodies and is more useful for evaluating the freezing temperature of Brackwater (Such as you might find in river deltas and sheltered coves or bays which are much more common in the US than Europe) at 0, rather than Freshwater.

Already had this idea a few weeks ago, but here's my chance to use it: Fahrenheit is based on perceived temperatures (0°F = really cold, 100°F = warm/hot, 200°F = too hot) ≈ feelings. Fahrenheit is the "alternative fact" of temperatures.
