TIL I don’t exist
This entire expansion is full of stuff I’ll probably be coming back to in a few years when I can solo it without any real effort, simply because so much of it was obsolete within weeks or months of launch, and I didn’t commit to the group grind at that time.
Primal Storms
Cobalt Assembly
Dragonbane Keep
Researchers Under Fire
Open World rares
Zaralek Cavern rares
Forbidden Reach rares
Suffusion Camps
Time Rifts
Dreamsurges (coming soon)
and so on…
I play on a low pop server, so much of the time you have to rely upon LFG to get anything major like these things done, and outside of weekly or world quests, there’s not always a group available. Heck, even going on the wrong day or wrong time can be a fruitless endeavor.
It’s a genuine shame that Blizzard committed to this cycle in which old events are supplanted by new ones on such a frequent basis, and it all hinges upon group participation to get almost anything done. And yet all we need for a solution is for rares and elites to be rescaled to reflect the actual capabilities of solo players. We’re not asking for handouts, just the ability to realistically handle content without a full group…
If he’s not careful with his antics and hostility then eventually a mod will get to them. I would rather he learn to be a better person ahead of that.
I want the cloth, leather, and plate transmogs there but realized fast how tedious and a pain it would be to do that. At least as a BM Hunter my pet let my cheese it as did camo, cheetah, and feign death.
I just logged into the game and joined a ZC rare group. There were 27 players in the raid. 11 rares were up and we cleared them.
Then i joined a group for the elders.
Yup… dead zone. No ones there.
In about 5 minutes im gonna join a researchers group.
Look at me getting crushed under the weight of my toxicity roflmao…
Have fun arguing on the internet instead of just playing the game you fools.
It’s sad that toxic people truly cannot take a step back before they send something to think, “should I?”
They also tend to play the victim and cry “stop attacking me!” when someone with the gal to call them out on their toxic behavior steps up.
Then they deflect after being so sorely beaten by trying to prove a point with their last dying ounce of toxicity and failing miserably because they go back to attacking the very people they claimed were attacking them when this all could have been avoided if someone stopped to think how they worded something to make it less hostile and aggressive. But no it’s summer time and the teenagers are playing world of warcraft and trying to assert dominance by being keyboard warriors and giving terrible counter arguments.
Don’t they teach basic response etiquette in highschool?
also dosnt help the cave is cut off from the world, making it a pain ot get to. even when you fly down the rock wall may be “shut” caz there zones still loading
if there was a flightpath there i may go there more, now theres really no need
Yeah, the ZC rares are very much worthless compared to FR ones. They’d be okay, if they at least dropped BoA 402 Veteran gear tokens, and maybe had a fair chance at 2x drake fragments. But as it stands right now there is just no reason to kill them.
You have almost twice as many posts and over 7000 achievement points less than the guy you’re saying argues on here too much and doesn’t just play the game…
Don’t feed the trolls and they become less of a problem.
Just don’t reply to him even if he specifically targets you.
When they stop getting the attention they want they go away.
Good news, you can fly to Zaralek from the outside world (and vice versa) Click on the lower right hand corner of your map when you’re selecting flights.
good to know.
wish the game would tell us this info and we wouldnt have to go no the forum to find said answers… lol
I can confirm literally everything written here.
I remember even in SL (the expac that everyone loves to dump on) that I could always rely on easily shard hopping to farm rares and posting any mount rare in the group finder would instantly get flooded with applications. Now? I can’t even find anyone to help me kill Karokta the mount rare half the time.
And yes, both the maw and Korthia had heaps more activity than ZC. Its not even a fair comparison, ZC is that dead. I can also confirm that zereth mortis has more activity than ZC.
This is a really weird take. No one is complaining. They’re discussing why no one wants or had really any reason to go to that zone anymore.
sssh…don’t feed him. report and move on.
The resistance would only come from the people who don’t like other people having fun outside of what they deem acceptable. But like it or not, a lot of this game is played solo and it will continue to do so.
But sure, if the devs wish to leave this zone dead and meaningless, they’re certainly welcome to cut off their nose to spite their face.
Because too much of the world content requires a group to do.
I completely stopped going to the caverns after my first day or so. Just not an enjoyable zone.
It’s not about the rewards, it’s about how bland and depressing the zone is. A cavern zone could be mystical, with colorful crystals and things that make it feel vibrant. It has nothing visually appealing to it.
It also has the most annoying voiced world quests and race ever added to the game. I turn off my sound to interact with anything in the zone.
I’m not saying you’re wrong, because it is your opinion and it’s just as valid as my own, but I disagree. I think the zone looks really cool. I mean, I’m more partial to environments like Jade Forest than underground zones, but for an underground zone it looks neat. Reminds me a bit of Deepholm.
I think they’re really good at creating world content, but not great at creating a reason to invest in it. It gets even less alluring when I have to have a group to do it and there isn’t one immediately available in the finder or people immediately joining the one I list. I’ll wait like 5m and then bounce and go do something else.
Perhaps I’m the rare player in this situation. But I do not want to wait around for other people so I can do content, I just want to do it.
Well, world content, especially this type of world content, and especially when it’s supposed to be the upgrade path for casual players, is no use if there aren’t enough people around to ad hoc take it on.
