Level 29 beta WW monk

You could still get the gear IF they allowed proper ilvl to drop in chromie time for levelers, it'd just be annoying.

Like imagine doing all those ToC runs and having to do the mounted lance fighting every time... :kms:

I dont believe they'd lock leveling toons out of leveling dungeon loot, that would be absurd. But... Blizz does stupid things. I can still solo those TBC dungeons pretty easy (first boss BF, at at least lol) but it dropped level 30 loot. Both normal and chromie. (edit- solo on a level 15 easy, I mean. Which is nice as people were crying about lower level ilvl nerfs)

I could see them fixing chromie is what I'm saying.... and only chromie. I dont know how the starter leveling sytstem works on beta, you cant test it. Even creating a new "leveling" toon starts you at 60, cant find another leveling option at the moment.

And not all BfA dungeons are scaling proper, just a couple. From the guide loot, at least. Not gonna run all over checking.

edit- oddly enough, the only WotLK dungeons showing lower than 30 req. loot are the 4 that drop epic we are farming. o_O

Got some new gear on the 29 hunter, posting it here cuz it's just as good for monk:

Cant use both of those at once tho, like you can elekk and Kihras... got a little better numbers here using those:

also, last pic reminded me of this:

ToC numbers continued. 120 runs.
  • Marrowstrike dropped 8 times. Large stretch now where it hasn't dropped.
  • Gun dropped off last boss 8 times.
  • Agility mace with socket dropped 3 times. Large stretch now where it hasn't dropped.
  • Took 44 runs to gear a hunter.
  • Took 32-ish runs to gear a druid.
  • Took 29 runs to gear a shaman.
  • At 15 runs on warrior. A few pieces to go.

Oh, no... I've had tons of em drop. My Pally got it first run, & my Warrior had em drop back to back. My Rogue too... & my DH got the https://www.wowhead.com/item=50296/orca-hunters-harpoon?bonus=6712 on the first jaunt through HoR.

I'm ready to tear through the internet & punch a dev in the dick.
 
I do hope it just stays as goofy as the posts. 5k hits, best games.
 
I think problems with ToC are two second bosses so 50/50 there and the last boss has a huge pool so chances are pretty low.

Takes about 37 minutes to run 10 times. 5.5-ish days to go (assuming they nuke ToC to level 30 requirement and changing to rare drops next Tuesday). "Your suffering will be legendary—even in Hell."
 
My problem seems to be that whatever of the 2 middle ones drops an item I'm after, the other always spawns.

Legit like 8-2 in a 10 run set most times. :mad:

I've been running 3 accounts to get 2 drops at 29s sometimes, and even then it seems the high level runner gets 3-3 loot more often than not. I made the mistake of accidentally looting with my high level once this week and of course the item I wanted showed.

I make it a habit to let everything got to the high-runner mailbox ever since running hillsbrad like 87 times for pants.

edit- this isnt 100% guaranteed longevity or grandfathered result... I'm content with filling a slot with WoD-proc epic - until those arent viable on the beta anymore. So far so good... plus I'll never even play them. :kekD:

Plus I want to try gearing a couple 20 before times up too, lol. I think my socket gear will do on them. Got burned on it before.

edit- my god... now I just had some system issue that prevented WoW and wrath from starting - unable to run World of Warcraft. Beta was fine. Took 20 mins to fix it. :mad::mad::mad:

Aside from the https://www.wowhead.com/npc=35119/eadric-the-pure / https://www.wowhead.com/npc=34928/argent-confessor-paletress bottleneck, & everyone's dire need for https://www.wowhead.com/item=47214/banner-of-victory?bonus=6712 ( & my own pn-going 141 run personal quest to get FUCKING https://www.wowhead.com/item=47522/marrowstrike?bonus=6712 to drop for my Surv Hunter ) A decent host of the BiS gear come from the ICC 3. So there's too.

FFS... I really hope we're not looking at a GF'ed situation here. I'm rapidly losing my motivation & over-all love for the game over this.

I keep having to throw these in the trash LOL. My last 10 runs produced two for the priest.

But yeah, the Banner of Victory drop has been weird. I didn't see one drop until past my 100th run this time around. Meanwhile, my last 10 runs dropped 8 Abyssal Runes.

"Ah, the suffering. The sweet, sweet suffering." The Hillsbrad legs still haven't dropped for my 29 hunter after 30 tries. I took it as a sign not to play a 29 hunter.

Yeah, I hardly play my 29's either. :monkaLaugh: Fun to gear them, but battlegrounds became boring.

I've been having a blast in xp on 30's. One can buy level 30 ilvl 41 blue socket gear off org/stormwind vendors, slap a few heirlooms on, and enjoy 10 levels of being strong but not godlike strong.
 
Banner was the item I accidentally looted that dropped for my high level. That was enough for the night last night...:kms:

I always give them to the twink just in case of some glitch that makes them useable at too high level...... never happens.
 
Not sure if they're live, did one kill of the wolf/adds in shadowmoon... bad choice, he only has 6.5k health or so.

Most interesting to me is that revenger proc crit for 812 somehow. Also pretty sure that strike of the windlord hits each target twice and that was the big one - I think the offhand attack is smaller. I dont know if he died before it could register or what... pretty sure it's a double hit attack.

That was with the elekk trinket again, still not sure if it adds damage or not... been busy with the gear grind.

Plus got that poopy extra RSK on something, crit for 233. Bleh.
 
One last MM hunter damage post, not gonna bother another thread for silly stuff like that.

Finally got all slots epic 122(PTR) ilvl, but this one is with the blue elekk and epic um... iron docks mastery thing:

Got an epic static mastery/vers trinket to replace elekk, for full 122 ilvl, and got this:

So might be worth not running double on-use for the sake of the 2 minutes downtime between... if you get that one.

Honestly I'd just do the PvP trinket but I like pushing big numbers. ;)
 
Jesus, gotta level the WW and other sword users, farm Botanica and ToC until passing out.

Getting https://www.wowhead.com/beta/item=78488/souldrinker?bonus=9057 vibes from a few years ago in Korrak's. Frost DK or fury warrior double Revenger, double crusader, lots of haste?
You really think it's worth the sacrifice of all that strenght & stam to have 2 revengers on a DK or Warr, with motherfuckers like

Gotta think about that....

I think we all know if damage like that makes it to live, no one will be playing (except hunters and oblivious f2p's being the fodder).

It'd be a fun build to see what kind of self healing one could sustain. Fury warriors with crusader are already top 1-3 in healing in many BGs.

Probably doesn't come close to what Souldrinker did in Korrak's AV (some warriors and rogues were near impossible to kill).
