How SL actually is Alt friendly

Ok, so I hadn’t done anything with my priest except log in once to start rested exp gaining a year ago. Still had the original go to org and find out what happens quest. Talked to darion, got sent to Icecrown, did the thing with the helm, and got sent to the maw. Couldn’t find anyone saying I’ve heard all this before. If there is a skip, a legitimate skip, then they hid it well.

probably no one really knows about it, let me link the npc: https://www.wowhead.com/npc=164173/fatescribe-roh-tahl#comments

No.

And it’s terrible.

[Greatbobbo-zuljin (Greatbobbo)]

That is AFTER you run through the Maw the first time. We are looking for a way to skip the maw and go straight from Orgrimmar to Oribos without so much as a toe tip into there.

[Deathcores-proudmoore]

dude, the intro quests are like 30 minutes long, not that inconvenient, once in oribos, you can skip everything and just farm reknown quickly

[Tovi-moon-guard (Tovi)]

I’m calling shenanigans and he did get my hopes up. I’m angry!

So here’s my alt talking to Roh-Tahl:

He only says this:

Here’s proof I still have the intro quest:

Here’s The Enclave:

Wrong. This is another thing I tested. Did it on a fresh Druid and it took 43 minutes and that’s with my stealthing past all mobs I could, being able to mount up, blowing all cooldowns on elite fights and going through escorts and squawking with Jaina.

So here’s my alt talking to Roh-Tahl:

if you can’t switch, then you never finished the campeign questlines on a main

Right, right. I fell asleep and woke up at renown level 53 or where ever I’m at

roughly 30 minutes, stop making something out of nothing, or do wee need to take it outside?

[Tovi-moon-guard (Tovi)]

That’s 43 minutes on a class that can stealth and mount plus I was trying to do it as fast as possible. For normal people that’s not trying to race or has never done it, that’s 50 minutes to an hour of listening to Jaina squawk and Thrall talk about his heft.

[Greatbobbo-zuljin (Greatbobbo)]

They gave us a 30 minute skip in Legion. They gave us a 30 minute skip in BfA. Why can’t we have a 30 minute skip in SL?

[Tovi-moon-guard (Tovi)]

And a skip for WoD too.

[Greatbobbo-zuljin (Greatbobbo)]

But wasn’t that some tomfoolery about finding a secret cave on the Timeless Isle?

[Tovi-moon-guard (Tovi)]

Yes but there’s now an even easier route. The point is, there are skips for WoD intro so you don’t have to do that stupid jungle quest.

p.s. I haven’t tried the “new” WoD skip. All my alts are 50 or above.

don’t think so, think you got a charm gain buff that have you better loot drops in LFR, then you had 150 valor each heroic random you got to catch up gear levels, but in panda, catchup wasn’t fast enough, the grind still outlived the life of the expansion, panda’s fatal flaw back then

Hello Kaurmine here with another friendly reminder

@Kaurmine-area-52

the problem is there’s no definition of alt friendly, it is to some people and it isn’t to others. It’s not as easy as asking “Is there or isn’t there grass in Mulgore?” Unless you’re trying to be funny there’s obviously grass in Mulgore but the same can’t be done with “alt friendly”

Dude… I don’t think you understand at all what we’re talking about. Not trying to be mean, just stating a fact.

@Kaurmine-area-52

Hello Kaurmine here with another friendly reminder

Yeah I think I get it and if so I think you’re right. To me SL is pretty alt friendly (with room for improvement) because my main focus is mount farming but for the guy that raids on 5 different toons (just as an example) it might not be friendly for him.

should be more alt friendly for raiders than for mount farmers, you just need to be 60, then 158, once 158 head to korthia, do the dailys, get the gear, farm the korthia elites to upgrade gear a bit, you’re on your way to LFR before real raiding or find a carry group in mythics

[Tovi-moon-guard (Tovi)]

Yeah sure why not.

[Rollo-thunderhorn (Rollo)]

So, it’s alt friendly…if you only have four alts to worry about.

[Tovi-moon-guard (Tovi)]

I think the answer is “depends on what your goal is.”
