Oh, that's a good trick! I should've thought of that yesterday. I have done all the quests in Nagrand but my ilvl is still only 608. So completing the zone is no guarantee to get to 610. I guess it depends on how lucky you are with upgrades on your quest rewards and/or drops from rares in the zone.Makoes wrote:Worried about ilv?

Still ticked at the iLevel requirement. I may *have* to cheat it.
Re: Silver: I was able to do it at iLevel 560-something (and a heroic SoO hierloom bow) as a hunter. Silver was no problem at all.

Re: 10 year anniversary!
The group wiped twice on the Corehound packs before Magmadar mainly because our stupid main tank wouldn't wait for one pack to despawn before pulling another. We wiped another couple of times on trash packs as we went through the instance. We never wiped on a boss though. At about 10 AM, we finally got to Rag and one shotted him pretty easily. So, I now have the mount and a level 640 helm. My equipped Ilvl is still only 613 but the average is 616.
It was an ordeal but I did it. I think they did an excellent job updating the instance. It brought back many fond memories and was a lot of fun.

Re: 10 year anniversary!
Where is that vendor anyhow? I haven't done much in Nagrand, but I'm sitting at 606 and I'm tired of waiting almost an hour for a normal only to get bad groups and pretty much no loot.Makoes wrote:Worried about ilv?

He's at the Ring of Trials. Just go around on the outside until you find him.Aleu wrote:Where is that vendor anyhow?

Re: 10 year anniversary!
Eh. While the mount is a given, the pets and helm aren't. It'd be good to have as many chances as possible for those.TygerDarkstorm wrote:Considering the raid is running until January 5th, I don't see why you would have to "grind the heck" out of something. There's a whole month to reach the needed ilvl to get into the raid.
I got a couple upgrades in Nagrand on Saturday, one of which nicely upgraded to epic, but was still only at 610 or so. So, I did the lazy thing and went into the zergfest that is Ashran. The epic leggings and blue chest from that got me high enough ilevel last night. I'll probably try queuing for MC tonight.

Re: 10 year anniversary!
It took me about 3 hours to get into one. We managed to clear it in about 2 an half hours after a bunch of hiccups. Then again I'm a pure dps, so the queues for healers and tanks may be shorter. Really you just have to run it once to get the mount. Not sure about the pet and the helm. I got the helm after my first run, but no pet sadly.MaximumOverdrive wrote:Has anyone tried queing recently? 2 hours for the que...and all I hear are horror stories from my friends about it...is it really that bad?

Re: 10 year anniversary!
After 3 hours in queue, finally got it. Wiped on second set of mobs. After that, had 3 near wipes.
Luckily we finished in about 2 hours. Also lucky, I managed to get the pet.
Now I understand why all my friends refused to go back in there with me lol. That was a nightmare, even with it going smoothly. I will never set foot in that again.

-LFR Pug mage kept pulling the corehounds when we told him not to
-Said mage then popped heroism during the corehound pulls...wasting it.
-Kicked said mage then a shaman and warrior friends with him facepulled all the corehounds and boss then left
-LFR Pug priest was bragging how he was dispelling the most...when he healed the least.
