2:30 I am STILL dealing with the bug that makes half my abilities disappear on every other log in or reload. Yeah, minor annoyance perhaps, but it's not something that anyone should expect from WoW and/or Blizzard.
Gah, didn't know about the volatile transmute. Good to know now, but volatile airs are so painful to get I ditched herbing on one of my druids to go mining/engineering for more volatile air.
Not sure if everyone knows but the electrostatic condenser engineer item you can craft that gives you a chance to proc volatile air when you gather. Downside is you have to have gathering with engineering but i get about 40 air in an hour of mining
Thanks; I've been doing Living Elements each day (usually more profit than Truegold on my server), but didn't know you could control which ones you get - that's ace!
Ty for the transmute into volatile air tip!!! Truegold are only about 200g profit (if you buy the mats) on Gehennas horde and i haven't been getting a single proc on my transmute master xD Also if anyones interested my friend (feral off spec) and I (blood dk) farmed vortex pinnacle normal all the trash upp till the 2nd boss for volatile air and in about 6 runs we got x100 (50 each). There are probably much faster ways to farm gold but it was fun and non-contested. Also you can prolly do it faster if you have a higher output dps, my friend even considered lvling another char for it xD. Each run was 13 minutes.Ty for the vids Scotte
That surprises me. I'm playing cata for the first time and I thought the new zones were really straightforward and easy to get into. Especially with Questie or even the standard wow quest tool on hand. Recommend questing in Hyjal over Vashj (not just because it's a water zone) to be quicker, then just Deepholm until you're through and have Therazane dailies unlocked, then Uldum and finally Twilight Highlands with 84. So the standard route, pretty much, all the way until you've got the next zone unlocked. Can even do a dungeon here or there in between since it's pretty decent exp if you've got quests for the first run. I'm no speedrunner when it comes to lvling and I'm sure others can do it much faster, but I can do 80-85 in around 9-10 hours following that route which I think is good enough, personally. Hope that helps a little. Maybe others know more.
@@123Suffering456 its just some quests i have no idea what to do cuz i never played them before and its some new mechanic so i need to watch youtube video playthrough to see what im supposed to do. like i wasted 45 minutes figuring out how to do climb on tree and save bears quest and throw them in the right place... questie shows some stuff in wrong place. also i aint feeling the new zones they are not as immersive for me as outlands or northrend so its just like meh whatever this generic zone with no backstory.. i finished all quests in hyjal and got to 83 then went deepholm. i think im doing it wrong cuz im revered with one faction and dont have any other reputations yet and im 84 now but i don't know where to quest to get all my reps to friendly to have all tabards ready for dungeon rep farm xD. but due to your comment i think im in right spot to get my second reputation unlocked 👍
I have been playing WOW for the first time since the TBC launch and I have to say this xpac is soooo much fun and I am scratching my head as to why Cata has had such a bad rap. I have noticed the drop off from WRATH and the main reason those players left was due to burnout and I get it raiding on multiple toons every week can have that effect lol. In any case I have been present ever since the prepatch launch and the amnt of people playing cata is amazing and the feel of the game is amazing as well and i cant wait for raid...zug zug
hey scotte ty for the vid, how would you level as a mage from lvl 1 , aoe after 52 u get db? Im lvl 58 now with couple aoe spots, lfd and quests but idk if only aoe farming a dungeon solo is more worth what would u recommend?
The mats for true gold are selling for more, not worth the cost of mats imo True gold is only 1500-1600 on my server while the mats cost 1600-1700 because the volatiles are so expensive
I manages to miss them the first day myself lol, discovered the rest of the quest while exploring randomly. Defo worth doing, its quick and alot of rep every day
I’ve been having a blast, geared up from heroics and badges super fast. Working on a shaman alt now :) And if your guild benches you for not having the epic wep… yikes 😂 glad I don’t play with those type of ppl anymore 😂
One of the best launches ever. My expectations were low and there have been some bugs but I am loving already got a new guild ground up 1 85 with another on the way!
If you enjoy dungeons and don’t care about getting rep established sure. Personally I enjoy questing and don’t want to grind dungeons to 85 just to grind more dungeons at 85.
Don't think they will. Paid addons aren't even allowed according to ToS, so that Blizzard hasn't banned them yet shows me that they clearly don't care if they've tolerated them for this long.
@@123Suffering456 they are not allowed. you should clearly read the ToS 1) Add-ons must be free of charge. All add-ons must be distributed free of charge. Developers may not create “premium” versions of add-ons with additional for-pay features, charge money to download an add-on, charge for services related to the add-on, or otherwise require some form of monetary compensation to download or access an add-on.
Truegold is just not even worth the cooldown now. The profit is negligible, like 1G profit and a waste of 24H cooldown on my server. Alchemy as a whole is a complete waste of a profession on our server, everything you make you lose money on because the price of raw herbs is insane and nobody can farm any because there are 7000 bots active everywhere mining and herbing anything and everything. The economy on this game is completely fucked right now.
After playing for a few levels, I quickly remembered why I quit playing back in original Cata. Not my jam, but happy for those who like it. Ps. Please devs, work on SoD.
The more I play Cataclysm, the less I like it. I didn't even bother logging in on Tuesday. The classes feel 'clunky' to me. I have an 83 druid; an 82 Pally, DK and Shaman; and the rest are close to 81. Other than the druid I've only been playing them with rest bonus so early leveling is quick but it still isn't fun. Lots of bugs, nodes that are 'tapped', etc...
Classes always feel less clunky at max level, when you have all your abilities. The raids are also more mechanically challenging than Wrath was, and that’s one of the biggest reasons most people dropped off back in the day. They couldn’t just face roll and get carried by gear. If you were at all curious about raiding, I’d recommend sticking it out through tier 11 as far as you can and then evaluating. You might still not like it, but you also might see something you really enjoy.
Does clunky just translate to “too many buttons to press so I can’t keep track”? Because for the most part every class has become smoother as far as rotations and abilities synergizing with each other.
@@Kyte2261 no, I like more buttons to press and I like more engagement which is why I don't particularly enjoy casters (cast time + GCD) with the exception of healers. Maybe I'll see that synergy at 85 but I'm not seeing it now except for feral DPS.
@@anthonynocchi7268 demo warlock has been ticking all the boxes for me from a dps standpoint so far, not 85 on it yet though. My disc priest (85) has been a lot of fun.
I enjoy the way the classes play, been logging in every day. My mage is 85 and full raid ready.. just got the dwarf arch staff too! I haven’t really noticed any game changing bugs and I’ve really been enjoying the new guild I have been playing with… made new friends in wow.. I’m glad I came back to wow . Quit in tbc came back for cata.. zero regrets

GDAMNIT SCOTTY! You gave away my volatile air secret!
I've learned if you find something useful or a strange interaction, it won't stay a secret for long
Sigh 😂
Everyone was already doing this on my server anyway.
Funny you think it was still a secret
If you are an alchemist you have a chance to get the vial of the sands recipe as well, from the tol'vir archaeology

dayum bro 4x 85??
i didnt even get 1 char to 85 yet cuz new zones questing is so confusing and unfamiliar.

Keep digging man, i got the sword and staff back to back monday night.
The black rock caverns dungeon was bugged for me, wouldn't let me take the quests.
I got my Zin'rokh last night at like 4:00 am dont give up keep diggin lol
herm says grim batol is 84 not 83 am i confused?
Hi I'm looking to level a healer 80-85 asap how many hours can I expect with dungeon spam??
Nice tip on xmute. I been just doing them in sw and it’s been random. On the plus side even earth sells decently but yeah more air would be nice!
wait what ? ... 18 dailies in tol barad ? why i see only 6 ?
go to other side
dont u need alot of rep from the questing zones ?
Is transmutation master quest still in the game? I can't seem to find it.
The new quests are now in the major cities from the training npc and the ones previously in Outlands have been removed.
you need to be 475 alchemy and the quest is from the alchemy trainers
I got Zin'rokh an hour before our raid was scheduled. 600 solve gang.

best way too level right now i got multiple chars below lvl 70
When I lvled my goblin to 80 I found that questing and dungeon spam is good. And you will have lots of rest so the first lvls will be easy.
I’m gonna need to know what your guild is on Mankrik and how i get an invite lol
Not sure how you have 18 dailies since i can only pick up like 6 or somrthing each day.
Yoo im on mankirk too!

You sound like William Butcher. Hell yea
really don't know where all those tol barad quests are supposed to be, I only see 6 per day
Go over the bridge to the south and there’s always 12- in the middle of the map at actual Baradins hold

Thats rough. I got zin rokh on my second solve at 450.
I personally found that when I list my 7 truegold they sell immediately, but I'm also listing at like 3-4 am server. Mankrik US
Yeah cuz they are 300g cheaper at 4am than in the evening lol, ppl buy and resell
@@voo7210 funny, there's a lower price during the day since there's so many people trying to list

I got 10 months game time with ore farming and valor boots selling Cata is worth 😅
To be fair, you havnt even attempted to put the effort in for the sword…
"Mine/Herb for few hours and get deck almost instantly" What server he plays on lol
In grim batol use the drakes to hurt the mobs to about 40% then run through and kill all easier.
Bro wtf are you yapping about fast levelling. I’m only 80 now and it took me ages. Need about 2 hours for 1 lvl with dungeon queue time
Mists of Pandaria and Legion waiting room for me
