  1. Hello, does anything on the homepage save the ingame settings? a few addon profiles have destroyed my interface, the settings could not be reset. then i copied my shadowlands folder again and installed it for dragonflight. i deleted addons, cache and the whole wtf folder, but as soon as i'm back in the game, the settings of the deleted config are applied again? could it be that the saved settings are still coming from somewhere else? i have never had some settings like bubbles or trade symbols being displayed above npcs, or that the nameplate changes from a name to a life display. does anyone here know anything about this? for example this picture, nutral (yellow) npcs, change to health bar. never had this before
  2. So, you have finally reached level 120, and do not know what to do. No problem. This guide is for you. A. The Artifact Neck If you did not get the artifact neck, go get it now. https://www.wowhead.com/item=158075/heart-of-azeroth You can acquire the neck by completing the following quest chain: Alliance: https://www.wowhead.com/quest=53370/hour-of-reckoning Horde: https://www.wowhead.com/quest=53372/hour-of-reckoning After acquiring the neck, you will need to level it. You can get Azerite (to level your neck) from many sources. You can get some from random dungeon finders, raid finders, battlegrounds, arenas, and from elites. There is also the weekly quests that spawn once per two weeks (around the ship that takes you to the crossfaction maps). Those quests ask you for donations (several items/mats), and reward you with lots of Azerite. B. Arathi Highlands Warfront You will find a portal to Arathi Highlands in your main BfA city. For alliance, it is near the ship that takes you to the horde BfA maps. This new reworked Arathi Highlands map, has plenty of elites, that you can kill for Azerite, 340-360 ilvl gear, mounts, pets, and toys. You can kill all Arathi elites once a week (reset is on Wednesday). Download and install both of the following addons, that will allow you to see those elites on map: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/handynotes https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/handynotes-warfrontrares You need to download the versions for the Firestorm client (currently it is 8.0.1, but that will change soon). Follow this guide (by Alan), to download the right versions of those addons: http://us.forum.firestorm-servers.com/index.php?/topic/39122-how-to-download-addons/ To farm efficiently, you may: 1. Pay for a carry. You need to ask players of the same cloth type for a carry. If you are a warlock, for example, ask for a cloth carry. In that manner, the geared guy, would acquire items and trade them to you, so you have double chances for loot. If you are in a guild, you can ask them to carry you for free. Currently, a full carry (on reset), will cost you around 5k gold. Make sure you do not pay the players upfront, since there are plenty of scammers. If they ask you for gold upfront, do not join them. Remember people are doing the runs on reset, so you are just tagging along with them. If they go out of their way to help you, they will ask for 10k gold. 2. If you are poor and/or do not have a guild, look for people who are fresh to Arathi (like you), and do a run with them. Make sure they have the same cloth type. In that manner, you can help each other gear up with duplicate items, that you do not need. 3. If you cannot find anyone to do this with, go ahead and solo. If you are fresh level 120, you will want to wait for other people to attack the elite you want to kill, and when they start, you can engage the elite. There are elites that hit really hard. So, you may want to tag them, run away, and keep your distance until the boss dies (making sure you are still in combat). You will also need this trick for world bosses, since those bosses hit for a lot, and you may die before you are able to loot. Note: Arathi elites drop everything but rings and trinkets. You will also see a world boss in Arathi Highlands. This boss drops ilvl370-395 gear (including awesome trinkets), and it alternates between alliance and horde (one week for alliance and another week for horde). If you cannot attack the boss and it looks friendly to you, that means it is not your turn. I believe the boss resets on Wednesday 1PM server time. Alliance: https://www.wowhead.com/quest=52847/dooms-howl Horde: https://www.wowhead.com/quest=52848/the-lions-roar C. Emissary of War Emissary of War is a weekly quest. This quest rewards you with a 370+ ilvl item. https://www.wowhead.com/quest=53037/emissary-of-war Basically, you need to complete four mythic dungeons. The best way to do this, is to queue Freehold on RDF HC. Then, go out and change it to Mythic. After that, move to the final boss (skipping all other bosses), and kill it. You do this four times, and you are done with the quest. If you are a lowbie (<335), nobody would invite you to their groups. So, you need to make the group yourself. That is the only way you can do it, at a low ilvl. If you are new to Freehold, what you need to do is follow the tank. The tank will lead the way to the last boss, and he will pull all adds along the way. Once you reach the last boss, go and hide until the tank dies. The healer will revive him, and then you can start the boss. If you have pulled any adds along the way, you would have to go and die with the tank. Then, wait for the healer to revive you. That is unless you are a night elf (Shadowmeld) or have a way to get out of combat (like mages etc.) Once you kill the boss, follow the players. You will see them going for an NPC. Interact with that NPC, so it takes you out of the dungeon. Then, reset and redo. Note: There is an old bug with setting dungeons to Mythic, when you queue for RDF HC. So, what you need to do is right click your avatar (if you are the leader), then Convert to Raid and back to group. Then, you will able to change the dungeon difficulty to Mythic. D. World Bosses There are plenty of world bosses, that you can do once a week. Those bosses drop 355+ ilvl gear. So, watch out for people doing those bosses on world chat. People tend to advertise a lot for them. E. Weekly Chests Make sure you do at least one MM+ per week, for the weekly chest, which rewards you with Azerite and gear. F. Craft/Buy Items There are some items you can buy from the Auction House, that you really need. I am referring to the rings and trinkets. You should buy ilvl300-310 rings from AH for 1-2k gold each, or craft them yourself using Jewelcrafting. Just make sure you do not buy two rings of the same type. You can also buy a Darkmoon ilvl355 trinket for around 10-30k gold, depending on the trinket. You can buy the trinkets cheaper, if you ask in world chat. Here is a list of the trinkets: RDPS: https://www.wowhead.com/item=159126/darkmoon-deck-squalls MDPS/Hunters: https://www.wowhead.com/item=159125/darkmoon-deck-fathoms Heal: https://www.wowhead.com/item=159127/darkmoon-deck-tides Tank: https://www.wowhead.com/item=159128/darkmoon-deck-blockades Note: The MDPS trinket is always expensive, so you may need to haggle. If you are rich, you can buy other items from AH for 50k-3m gold. I hope you liked the guide. P.S. All the information above, is from my personal experience.
  3. So, you have decided to start legion and finally reached level 110. Though, you are new to legion and have no idea what to do. This guide is for you. First of all, you should begin by moving to Dalaran (new Dalaran). After that, find the golem NPC that will give you the artifact weapons. It is right next to Jeanne the NPC that gives you loyalty points each day (in front of the horde bank). When you talk to the NPC select all options, to take all weapons. Keep in mind that this is a temporary NPC, that will be removed as soon as they script the quests for the artifact weapons. There are a lot of changes in legion that you need to know about. Though, let us start with the most important aspects of legion, which are your artifact weapon(s) and class hall. A. Know Your Artifact Weapon This is a new legion concept. They give you a weapon that you will level in a way to unlock its maximum potential. For each of your specs, there is a specific weapon. Look at the specs on the weapons, you took from golem, by scrolling over them. Equip the one with the spec you chose. Keep in mind that if you keep all weapons in your bags and switch to another spec, the artifact weapon, for the other spec, gets equipped automatically. So, its a good practice to keep all the weapons in your bags. There are four main things you need to know about your artifact weapon(s). The weapons have Artifact Knowledge, Artifact Power, Artifact Traits, and lastly Artifact Relics. You use Artifact Power items to charge (or level) your weapon(s). You will notice a new bar above your action bars like a new experience bar when you equip your artifact weapon. When you use an Artifact Power item to charge your weapon, that bar shows the increase in Artifact Power. When you reach the end of that bar, you level and unlock one trait. After you unlock a trait, it tells you that you have unlocked a trait on your screen. Open your character menu (gear menu) then shift right-click the artifact weapon. You will notice circles on your artifact weapon screen to the middle. Those are the traits. You should see one to two circles, if you just used your first Artifact Power (also referred to as AP). If you click the first circle you will use your AP that you gained by charging the weapon with the talent. The talent will consume the charged AP. I will not go in detail on AP since I am going to write a guide later (when I can) about Artifact Talents for every class. Now, let us talk about the Artifact Knowledge. The Artifact Knowledge or AK, is a modifier that allows you to increase the AP you can get from the same AP item. You get 100 AP on start. The more AK levels you add, the more AP you will receive. You can reach a maximum of 25 AK which will allow you to get 100k AP per AP item instead of just 100. Though, that will take some time. More on this later. Keep in mind that the Artifact Knowledge is shared between all your weapons while the Artifact Power is not. You will be able to see your current AK level by shift right-clicking your weapon then hovering over the small circle within the larger circle to the top left. The Artifact Relics are actually items that you can acquire and equip into your weapon. Shift right-click your weapon and you will notice three circles to the top, one of them is unlocked. Those are your relics. Those relic items add bonuses to your artifact weapon. You should have some in your bags if you have leveled your char 100-110. You can equip the relics by dragging them then dropping them on their associated slot. Each slot supports a relic type like Fire Relics, Iron Relics, Storm Relics, and so on. B. Know Your Class Hall Legion introduced a new place for classes. For each class in the game (druid, paladin, etc.) there is a spot that is called the class hall. In order to find your class hall location, just check this guide or expand the spoiler for an image (just in case they remove the guide). http://www.wowhead.com/unlocking-and-directions-to-each-order-hall-guide Now move to your class hall. I want you to explore your class hall. Talk to all NPC and click all objects. You will find five main things that are important to you. Let me list them: The Gear NPC, this NPC will allow you to buy some ilevel 810 gear for your char. There are items that you cannot purchase, though. Those are the ones that require the exalted rep. The Artifact Research NPC, will allow you to create items that will upgrade your artifact weapon's Artifact Knowledge. The same NPC will offer you three options. The first option is the quest. Take this quest. This quest will allow you to get the "Artifact Research Synopsis" item that will allow you to upgrade your weapon to AK level 15 skipping 15 levels. After using the item, you will notice two more options. One option will allow you to do a research using "Order Resources" which is a currency new to legion. More on this currency later. You will need 500 Order Resources per artifact research item. You can do two researches instead of one but you will need 1000 Order Resources. Keep in mind that each research takes 4 days. Yes, yes, it is a lengthy journey to AK level 25. Though, you should be thankful you are starting at level 15 unlike the rest of us who started at the very beginning. The third option allows you to purchase items that you can send to your alts on the same account to upgrade their AK level. Though, the item you buy is reduced by 5. So, at AK level 15 you can buy AK 10 items. At 20, you will buy AK15 items. At 25, you will buy 20 items. I suggest you level one char AK then buy the 20 AK items to upgrade your alts. Each of those items are 1000 Order Resources each. If you must play more than one char at the same time, do the Synopsis quest on all the chars starting them at AK level 15. After 4 days, you will notice a pile object next to this NPC. Click it to receive the Artifact Research item. Then use it. The Missions Board Object, after browsing your class hall you will find many quests. Some of those quests give you followers. When you get all the followers in your class hall, move to the board and click it. You will be able to do multiple tasks like missions. You can also do "Scout" to discover quests on maps that you did not discover before. You will also be able to do the mission required for Order Advancement unlocking. The Order Advancement NPC, after unlocking the mission for order advancement, one of the NPCs will now allow you to do Order Advancement. It is a menu with tiers of two options. This Order Advancement option will allow you to eventually unlock a second legendary slot which is very important for your char. More on legendaries later. The Class Hall Chest Object, you cannot miss this one. It is a large chest available on your class hall. Though, you will not be using this at the moment. You will need it later. This chest is unlocked on a weekly basis. In legion there is a new dungeon mode which is called Mythic+. Those are Mythic dungeons with a time limit. Later, when you got gear, you can do those. If you do one Mythic+ (also called MM+) the weekly chest gets unlocked and you are able to receive one item per week from that chest. You will be able to open the chest between Tuesday to Wednesday, depending on your time. That is it for your class hall. C. Do The Real Work Ok, so how do I upgrade my gear now that I am legion savvy? There are many options. Let me list them for you. Do World Quests. After reaching level 110, go to Dalaran. Then, press M and zoom out. You will notice bubbles on the broken isle maps. Those bubbles are the world quests. Each world quest gives you an item or currency. One quest can give you a gear item, another can give you an AP item to charge your weapon. One quest can give you Order Resources (which is needed for Artifact Research and Order Advancement as mentioned earlier), while another can give you Blood of Sargeras which is an item that you can use for professions or exchange for Order Resources items using the blood vendor near the Blacksmithing place in Dalaran. You need to do those quests every day. To farm gear, AP, and resources. You will notice that all gear quests will give you an item that is 810+, for example. The + part means that it can give you an 810 item or 820, maybe more. Also, keep in mind that the higher your ilevel is, the higher the gear you will be able to acquire. In other words, it scales with your ilevel. For example, at ilevel 840 you will get 840+ items for example. Your main objective as a fresh char, is to reach ilevel 840. Keep in mind that the pink or purple bubbles are world bosses and you need a group for them. Those world bosses quests give you a chance to receive 860 items if you are lucky. Do Emissary Quests. If you open the maps for the world quests you will notice three bubbles to the bottom left that are marked emissary quests. You get one emissary quest per 1-2 days. If you do not do the quest, it gets transferred to the next day until you reach the max of 3 emissary quests. Some world quests will give you credit for those emissary quests. Just click the bubble for the emissary quest of choice and it will give you a yellow glow under the bubbles of world quests that you should do (if you do not want to do them all). You need 4 yellow glowing bubbles for each of the emissary quests. After you do all 4 quests you will see a ? quest delivery icon on your map. Follow it and deliver the quest, to receive an AP item plus a box that contains gear and some other items. Do Legion Random Dungeon Finder Normal Mode. You will be able to learn the tactics in a safe environment this way. Also, you might get some items from those dungeons. Keep in mind that there are jerks in those dungeons that might vote kick you because you are low. Get used to it. Farm Gold. If you want to save time getting gear, you should farm gold. If you are a smart follow who is AH savvy. You should get some professions and start selling stuff. Why? It is because you can buy 840 gear items for your char from AH / people. Those items will cost you 6-10k each, though. There are even higher ilevel items but you cannot afford those at the moment. Do Mythic Mode Normal. After reaching ilevel 840. Go ahead and join Mythic Normal dungeon groups. Those dungeons are great if you want to gear yourself or alts since they drop ilevel840+ gear items (based on your luck). You can even sell those on AH since some of them are BoE. Keep in mind that those dungeons will give you a key called Mythic Keystone that you can use to do a specific MM+. D. Legendary? What Is That? After joining world chat you will see people talking about legendaries over and over. Those are ilevel 910 items that you can get randomly doing all sorts of stuff. They are very very rare so be patient and do not give up on them. So, what do I do to get a legendary you ask? Do Battlegrounds. This is the highest chance for getting legendaries. You get them from the boxes you get when you win (I am told). People reported getting lots of legendaries doing BGs. Do Arenas. You can do arenas for a chance, too. Do Dungeons. So, you do not like to PvP and want to stick to PvE? No problem. You will have a lower chance at getting legendaries from PvE but you will eventually get them. You have a good shot at getting them by doing Mythics normal and plus (in the future). You can even get one from the Class Hall chest when you start doing MM+ Do Emissary Quests. Yes, the boxes from those quests have a chance, too Keep in mind that you can only equip one legendary on start. Though, after finishing your Order Advancement and spending around 25k of Order Resources plus waiting a month for the cooldowns, you will be able to equip another one. If you want to progress your Order Advancement fast, start by farming the Blood of Sargeras quests. You can even do them on your alts and buy the Order Resources items from the blood vendor in Dalaran, as mentioned, then mail those OR item to your main (since its BoA=Bound on Account). This guide is a work in progress and I have not finished it, yet. Though, this should be enough to get your started.
