Questions & Answers

[Regginger]

I can't get over how much more informed and about 'twinking' this section is, when the people here are only playing a limited version of the full game? Why isn't 29 section full of interesting Q&A threads and things?

I've been off the game for 4 or 5 years and back when I played 19 twinks dominated every other bracket.. Now I come back and see that Trial wow is the biggest niche in the game! Basically I wish that the other sections could look and feel like this one

Up until last night, I thought f2p's queued with the "regular" 20-29's for bg's. I read though, that they are actually queuing with xp-off twinks instead because, technically, they have xp disabled due to being at max level. Can someone confirm either way? And, since the gear-scaling is supposed to make a more even playing field, when will they all get back to queuing together?

Yes, this has been the case for twinks locking their own experience bars since the feature was introduced back in Warth of the Lich King.
Trial accounts work in the same way. As you stated above, level 20 is their maximum level and therefore their experience bar will automaticly be locked. They will from this point only queue into players in the same bracket with their experience bar locked.

Regarding the gear-scaling - this change was not aimed to make a more even ground for this bracket in particular, but infact to make leveling through PVP more balanced.

And no, they will not queue into players who gain exepreience in battlegrounds anymore.

can pre boa pala(any spec) solo the new BFD?
i don't want to ninja gear if i can prevent it. (need cloth as mail guy)

Holy can solo bfd easily, ret too. Prot not advised.
[MENTION=25009]Regginger[/MENTION] 29s now aren't the bracket they used to be. They are now the 'come and feel better about yourself by farming trials' bracket.

F2Ps with all our limits need threads as for a newcomer there are many mysteries like how do you even get looms?

We probably got lots of helpful threads because of our attitude. We are helpful towards each other, we are driven by passion not by drama and elitism like some other brackets are.

nvm it still does slow fall, it almost swear i read thread saying it didnt. well dumb guys posting clueless info

about info, f2p Twinks are more dedicated and most only play lvl20 twinks, some play p2p and now only want to paly f2p, so they have more time to learn&teach.

give it sometime, if players really want to go back to way it was with 19s and 29s etc, it will happen, now with (EU) JFK, Somalian Pirates, GSC it could be very nice with guild premades.

You're going to have to go with a LOT of cloth gear. There just aren't many pieces of pre-boa Hpally gear.

Feline/Manager's Shoulders,

Noble's Robe

Serpent Gloves, Serpentis' Gloves, Gloves of the Hero

Ghamoo Rha's Bind, RDF Sorcery belt, RDF Stamina belt

Corpse Rompers, Sandals of Sacrifice

Oh ya, thanks, they posted that kind of thread because when a warlock Demoleaps it cancels the mugs buff, i explained it in that thread that you must demoleap THEN use the mug.

Not sure if this is the right place, but I know some of the old F2P players went P2P and made a guild on Korgath and another realm....does anyone know what the other realm was and what the guild names were (or if anyone is still playing?) lol

Sorry for a not really F2P question- I hope someone knows

Some f2p players went p2p , well, i can give you an example --- I think Some guys from Aerie peak gathered and had the idea to create a Guild on their p2p account that contained only f2ps. The guilds name is Wheres my Crutch @ Nazgrel - Community - World of Warcraft . Created by Sunshot-Sundemon... etc! And the realm is Nazgrel. But since the arrival of WoD i havent seen them in WSG yet.

The one on korgath got disbanded and almost all of the players either moved to different servers or quit.

I've asked before, no answer so I'll try again.

Is it worth having resilience as f2p?

 

[paranoi]

I've asked before, no answer so I'll try again.

most likely no, we tested recently and the damage reduction seems to be about 1% (90 vs 91 dmg per tick), with shoulders and insignia and staff of jordan equipped

The damage reduction is still roughly the same as it was before WoD.

It's just a hidden stat now (sort of like Resistances).

Pieces of gear with Resilience are better than the equivalent pieces without resilience - I.E., the Heirloom PvP trinket.

But it's certainly not a significant stat, no.

Thanks!

Where do Duskbringer (Duskbringer - Item - World of Warcraft) and Necrology Robes(Necrology Robes - Item - World of Warcraft) Drop, and what do they scale to ?!

 

[Grants]

They're both rares from SFK. According to the scaling thread, Necrology Robes scale to 10 Armor / 13 Int / 9 Stam. I couldn't find any information for Duskbringer scaling.

 

[LennywBT]

Alright, thanks!

 

[Rapido]

Anyone know the scaling of Marshalling Point - Item - World of Warcraft, aswell as Hogger's Shiny - Item - World of Warcraft?!

There's also other low ilvl items with higher stats from that same Worgen quest that I'd be curious of. Let me know what anyone finds!?
