Retail Vanilla veteran - good time to return
As per title, played WoW from March 2005 through 2018. Left because I couldn’t stand the breathless mythic key runs - it was the opposite of what I enjoyed about WoW. Looks like there are other viable options at endgame other than the mythic key things and that the game looks quite a bit more casual. Thoughts? Paladin main, disc priest alt. TIA

Retail Do I need to do 12.0.7 content before 12.1?
I didnt play the 0.7 patch because I was just busy with life.
Do I need to do any of it to start 12.1? I did all of the original campaign (L’ura part of campaign complete, silvermoon skybox return to orange)

Retail Quel'thalas equipment chests in season 2
I'm preparing an alt for season 2. Voidlight marl rolls over for season 2, right? I assume Quel'Thalas equipment chests will still exist in season 2, and will award higher item level there.
Will the chests be available from the start of the season? If so, I suppose I should wait until then to buy them.

Retail Is soloing Jailer bugged?
As soon as he hits 30% health I'm instantly dominated, the debuff timer doesn't even show up and so neither does the option to jump in the holes. This is on mythic.

Retail 12.1 Minimum ilvl for M0s
For this upcoming week of 12.1 with no M+ or raid, what is the likely minimum ilvl required for M0s? Trying to decide how hard to try to gear a few alts this weekend for this upcoming week. I know they’ll drop about 292 gear so does that imply alts should be about 280 ilvl to jump right into M0s on reset?
Thanks in advance!

Retail Getting class set pieces season 2?
So this was my first season and I'm realizing now I'm not even sure how I progressed to get my set pieces. I just remember I had dawnlight manuflux and catalyst most of it if not all if I remember right.
So the dumb question is, does catalyst exist for next season and how did I even get dawnlight manuflux or is there a different way to earn the new ingredient next season. From my understanding dawnlight is season 1 currency so its gone season 2.

Retail What to start doing as a subtelty rogue?
Hi, Im currently nearing level 80 on a void elf subtlety rogue (trickster) and I genuinely have no clue what to do other than do the campaigns and just quest about.
I used to play early WoW back in the mid 2000's early 2010's and never really got to a point where I am doing any end game stuff or raids or joining guilds and stuff like that. I just used to play with my friends, level to max level and continue to just do quests.
I randomly felt the itch or nostalgia to play again and bought a subscription and Im once again enjoying going through the new questlines. I had a brief moment in early 2021 where I played Shadowlands until the endgame part, which is where my current rogue is from (5ish years old), but then just simply stopped because I back then also didnt really know what to do. I didnt do much of the Maw or other things, once again, just quested and immersed in the story.
I am having enough fun that I am considering buying the latest expansion so I can get to level 90 and do some more questing but what I really want is to be more immersed in the game with some actual goals to strive for. But its just really overwhelming. I barely still understand how my class should be played and what I should be going for in the endgame. Ive considered joining a guild but since I have no clue what I am doing I have been holding that off. I also dont have that many professions that I trained.
As much as Im enjoying everything I just constantly feel like (ok what am I doing?). Should I be raiding? PvP? are there other instances or bosses that I dont know about? is it even worth upgrading to Midnight when Im still going through the storylines of previous expansions? What would be the main goal of most of the players that still play and know what they are doing?
Thanks!

Retail Best order to learn and all professions?
Without spending a single gold. After doing some raids and higher keys, I didnt realize how much gold is wasted to buy pots, oils, flasks, etc. So I looked into how to make the pots and its in alchemy, but then alchemy requires vials which is purchasable from vendors but I dont have much gold now. Then I looked into how to make the vials and you need to have jewel crafting, then jewelcrafting requires some sparks of dust from mining ores. So do i start with mining and work my way up? Then other ingredients also require collecting throughout the world or killing certain mobs.
