Hello. Noob question again.
- How do people get their artifact weapon to such high numbers on BFA boosted characters. I understand if you played all through Legion you had time to farm and many 110's would even be mains from that xpac (raid pimped!) But I can't aseem to find any good advice for new 110's/111's how to go about getting the artifact up to ilevels above BFA quest items/AH items.
- And my other question as a retuening player that never played Legion... With a BFA boosted charatcer, what route do I pursue to get legendary items? Again, many of the guides and tips i've searched either assume you are max level in legion, or that you have other characters that are. Are their prequest needed? Do you just hunt certain mobs with low drop chance?
Any advice would be massively appreciated! (Playing moonkin if that helps with pointed advice.)
Every raid and dungeon from Legion has a chance to drop relics for the artifact weapons. The highest relics you can get are from Antorus the Burning Throne, which is a raid located in Argus. Just try and do Normal and Heroic Antorus in group finder every week until you’re ready for mythic, it’s definitely the way way to gear up a twink. You can also do any of the other raids too, they just drop lower ilvl gear.
In regards to your second question, you need to get 1000x Wakening Essence and turn them in for a legendary (or they very rarely drop from raids and EVEN MORE RARELY you get them from BG wins). Wakening essence can be gained from Legion world quests, and then also every Antorus the Burning THrone boss you kill gives you about 20-30x essence (only once a week per difficulty though). And if you get the bonus roll tokens from Dalaran, each roll that does not result in loot will instead give you 150x essence. On average, if you kill every boss in Antorus and roll 2 non-loot bonus rolls, you’ll get about 6-700 essence a week. Additionally, your first BG win of the day will give you 30x essence, and your first random legion heroic dungeon of the day will give the same amount. Honestly there are a lot of ways to go about getting it, and you can very easily get 1000x in a week just from Antorus, non-loot bonus rolls, and BGs. World quests and legion heroic dungeons are only useful if you don’t roll 2 non-loot bonus rolls (but typically out of 3 weekly bonus rolls, 1 results in loot and 2 result in essence).
