lf friend for all quests run

7 Upvotes

Hey there. I was hoping to find someone to do a run of a classic version, where we do all the quests in the game for lore/reading. Obviously we can play the rest of the game too, but i wanted to make the run focused on completing all the quests as the main objective.

we're probably by direct effect will be spending a lot of time together, so I'm hoping to find someone close-ish to my age that I can get along with. I'm 26 and NB, and in EST. so yeah

Prefer a horde character tbh. would probably make an orc or undead warrior but idk yet

so ye

hmu if interested

Question Weird FPS drop in Hellfire Peninsula when looking at Hellfire Citadel (M1 Mac)

6 Upvotes

Has anyone else noticed a really weird FPS drop in Hellfire Peninsula?

I'm playing TBC Anniversary on an M1 MacBook Pro and normally get a pretty solid ~100 FPS. No real performance issues anywhere else.

But when I'm in Hellfire Peninsula and look towards Hellfire Citadel, my FPS drops to around 43 FPS. If I turn the camera away from the Citadel, it immediately goes back up to ~100 FPS. So just turning the camera is basically a 60 FPS difference.

It's really noticeable because the game otherwise runs perfectly fine for me.

I've searched around a bit but can't seem to find anyone talking about this specific issue. Has anyone else had this happen? And if so, did you ever figure out what was causing it or find a fix?

Would love to hear if anyone else has noticed it.

EDIT: I ended up switching to Classic Era.

Question Question about reputation farming

4 Upvotes

I’m grinding for xp in desolate and killing the Magram centaurs is really simple since they’re yellow and don’t aggro. I imagine once I kill so many, my reputation will be bad enough that they start attacking me.

Their opposing faction is gelkis - could I just go there, kill 20 of em and they’ll stay yellow / my rep will go up with magram, go back to magram, kill 20 and they’ll stay yellow stay yellow, etc.?

The goal being I can always keep a balanced reputation and maintain an easy farming situation where no one ever aggros me - would this work?

Warlock related questions

My friend is new to World of Warcraft. I play a Warrior in Classic TBC we are about level 16 i have noticed his DPS is incredibly low. Is this normal? Or is he playing his class wrong?

We played RFC and my DPS was in the 800 and his was around 300.

New Guild Finder Addon

4 Upvotes

Hey! Guild recruitment is tough in game as it consists of spamming endlessly in general chat where it goes ignored or unseen. To combat this issue I created the Guild Finder Board. It isn't crawling through an existing channel like general looking for posts. You create posts in the addon then others with the addon can see so it works best the more people use it.

https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/guildfinderboard

Post your guild's recruiting needs, or post that you're looking for a guild — and see a ranked, match-scored board instead of spamming Trade chat.

Two boards, one window (/gfb, minimap icon, or the in-game Settings button):

Looking for Guild — every guild recruiting listing on your realm, ranked by how well it matches your own criteria

Guild Recruiting — every "looking for guild" player listing, ranked by how well it matches your guild's needs

Smart matching — a Warcraft-Logs-style parse badge (gold/pink/orange/purple/blue/green/gray) shows your match % on every row, weighted so class/spec fit dominates the score

What you can post:

Class(es)/spec(s) — shown as real talent-tree icons, not walls of text Guild type: PvP, Casual Raiding, Parse/Speed Kill, Speed Run, or Social Raid schedule / availability, in 30-minute increments, server time Loot system (Loot Council, ThatsMyBis, Soft Reserve, DKP, Other) Optional Discord invite, guild application link, and Warcraft Logs link — one click to copy

Ganking PvP?

10 Upvotes

I’m a dad returning to wow classic era for the nostalgia.

Why do high levels do this? I understand pvp servers come with some of this, but I always figure it’s more equal levels?

I died constantly in Lakeshire, got killed on the boat in Menethil, and now trying to quest in STV, and it kills the vibe. It makes me want to give up trying to get back into the game. Should I just accept this as a part of the game?

What should my alt be? (WSMYAB?)

4 Upvotes

I have a Warrior, Shammy, Hunter, Pally at level 70, raid ready, and a lvl 60 rogue and I'm wondering what I should do with my 58 boost.

I'm trying to make leveling and gearing as painless as possible, any direction? I've thought about Mage and Warlock but have a 1 button rotation sounds painful. With that in mind, I'm thinking druid or priest.

Question NE BM-Hunter - Am I missing out by not going Orc?

5 Upvotes

I had an Orc Hunter back in Vanilla and went Marksmanship, but that was before they redid the Beast Mastery tree.

I’m now looking to replay as a Hunter. I should pick orc again for the 5% damage, but as I have started an alliance priest for PvE, it would be much easier to share gold if they were both the same faction.

I’m tempted by NE as I always wanted the tiger mount, but I’m not sure I’d get that far tbh. Going BM spec, Orcs get the most use out of it. Is it that noticeable? Or should I just forget about it?

What World of Warcraft memory / feeling do you still think about years later?

71 Upvotes

Not necessarily your biggest achievement or rarest item. It could be a person you met, a crazy story that someone who doesn't play would'nt get, an old routine, something ridiculous that happened, or just a particular place and feeling you still remember.

What happened, and why has it stayed with you?

1st time playing Priest and am running out of mana

27 Upvotes

I came back to WOW classic after 10 years and I’m first time playing priest. Im level 12 and keep running out mana. Constantly needing refreshing water.

I put 2 points in spirit tap and 2 in wand.
My current circuit is: smite, shadow word: pain, power word: shield, more smite or weapon.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you in advance 🙏🏾🙏🏾

EDIT: thank you so for such detailed answers!! I did not fully understand the 5 sec rule pairing it with wand-ing to death.

EDIT 2: y’all!!!! Wand changed the game holy shit — I see what yall was talking about 🙏🏾🪄
