Slightly better than last patch because of horrific visions giving better loot than the benthic gear was

I think jadei meant in shadow lands? If you havenā€™t played this expansion and all and have no gear, what will leveling be like?

From what Iā€™ve heard there has been a lot of positive feedback around leveling. None of the characters on the alpha are super geared. Also usually the first few greens are more than enough to carry ya.

I still havenā€™t bought the expac eitherā€¦

Lol yeah I donā€™t blame youā€¦ I am mostly pcā€¦ I do like console gaming for a few of the pretty non serious games. Itā€™s nice to have things in high def on a big screen if you donā€™t have to worry about competition. Mass effect and the new starwars game come to mind.

Yeah, in SL. Iā€™m done with BfA.

Good to hear since I havenā€™t done anything on my retail characters since August, other than a few of the AV anniversary event. Gonna be hard to go back to playing a spriest without renew, spammable defensive dispel and blackout.

Ah sorry.

Even the mythic geared players replace all their gear with leveling greens around 6-7 levels in. Just like now coming from Legion into BFA, youā€™re heroic/mythic antorus gear only lasts for 6-7 levels. You can still easily be in legion greens and go straight into bfa.

If the servers are stable when I log in I plan on trying a 5 mask run after I do my cloak upgrade run.

I did a 3 mask run quite easily but I know 5 will require no mistakes.

Did you get it?

No. I did a three mask clear but didnā€™t feel like doing an invasion to buy another essence. Iā€™ll try tonight.

I would jump to 4 first and then do a 5. I think one of the bigger jumps is from 4-5. That long night mask is pretty savage when you combine it with all others. Iā€™m sure you can do it though! Need any tips?

Long night is my only concern. Orgimmar has more room to kite than SW which helps to avoid stuff.

I have no questions off the top of my head but Iā€™ll watch a video first. Iā€™m trying on my Prot Paladin.

I tried a 4 mask run and wipe on Lakā€™hal. I got chained stun without my bubble or lays on hand.

But unlike those GD posters, I know it was my mistake. Iā€™ll destroy him next time.

Just a tip for the final boss in drag you can use the big stump to los his bolting turret cast thingā€¦ pool your holy power to smash his cries of the void bubble at 66 and 33 percent

The difference between 5 masks and 4 masks is a little insane. The amount of dps you need to make up for the loss of half your sanity is dramaticly skewed. I understand why its there but for 5 ilvls more it doesnt seem as worth it. It was definitely because of my dps, but there is just such a big jump from 4 to 5.

The first bubble is easy to burst through, but the second one can be a little difficult. Thankfully a defensive cooldown is able to tank it usually.

Itā€™s not really the damage taken but the sanity loss

Have an awesome day!

Happy Friday, peeps. Feels like itā€™s been a stressy week. Glad itā€™s over.

Dont PvP unless you want to grind out another MoP legendary cloak and want to spend oodles kaboodles of resources on your perfect corruption gear and trinkets.
