World Quests come and go all the time during the day too, while people are at work or asleep, and it’s not a big deal because they’re largely interchangeable. But that would change if we had an achievement required for Pathfinder that asked you to do a specific checklist of world quests. A lot of the stress and concern about “missing” individual Assaults is tied to this achievement, so we’re removing the achievement from Pathfinder via hotfix.
Once this hotfix is active, you will only need to reach Revered with the Armies of Legionfall and fully explore the Broken Shore to earn Legion flying.

Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
I believe if you can believe out of nothing an explosion (big bang) happened then how far fetched can god be?

looks like it's the long haul grind for rep now.

Re: Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
Yep. I'm going to do every world quest in the new zone, that I see. I typically see an extra 1 or 2 show up after you do your batch for the day, but these are typically later on in the day. My class hall has been giving me rep tokens for them, so that helps.Sukurachi wrote:oh great, and I already have two of them done.

Re: Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
As of today I'm halfway through honored. *crossing my fingers* Soon! I have a feeling I would have the assault achievement finished before I hit revered either way, but I'm sure it's a nice change for a lot of people.

Re: Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
I was also VERY surprised at how much I got away with! This is probably the first expansion where I'm this well geared on one of my toons, this early in the expansion (it usually takes me into nearly the next expansion to start getting good gear).
I enjoyed the trio scenarios at the end of each invasion (nice way to hearken back to the days of Pandaria scenarios).

Re: Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
the reputation one, on the other hand... quests give VERY little rep. it's going to take a while to get to revered.

Re: Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
No, the legion assaults have nothing to do with the order hall quest chain which will still have the staggered release of 11 weeks I believe.Talihawk wrote:with them taking this qualification off, does this mean we'll be able to tame feathermanes sooner?

Re: Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
how on earth can you farm the supplies? the quests only give 25 at a time. Is there some other source for the construction supplies?Xella wrote:I think people who have been dedicatedly farming construction supplies are the ones likely to have flying first, as each turn-in of 100 supplies gives some amount of rep.
I can't be online 24/7 playing wow hoping for a new daily to pop or some critter to show.
Hell, I went and killed some rare on Broken Shore and that didn't even drop any supplies despite being HARD (there were around 15 people working on bringing him down).

Re: Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
Doing every single quest when it shows up, finding chests, and killing rares. The rares for me, drop 5-7 Legion Supplies. Still this would be very time consuming and you would have to been on the island most of the day sense the patch came out. Combine that will a lot of good RNG, and you can get the rep tokens from class hall missions.Sukurachi wrote:how on earth can you farm the supplies? the quests only give 25 at a time.

Re: Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
Yeah, the chests are the big one—before they hotfixed it so you could see them on the map, they respawned a lot faster than they do now. A lot of people were just camping a single chest spawnpoint for hours. Now you have to actually work a bit for it, but even on my brand new high pop PvE server I usually bumble across three or four just as I'm waddling around doing the available WQs. (Of course, I wrote this post and then went to do today's late night dailies and came across absolutely nothing chest-wise, so :x)AdamSavage wrote:Doing every single quest when it shows up, finding chests, and killing rares.

It's 2-4 supplies per chest (slightly higher when the mage tower was up, the past couple days) so it takes a while to build up a significant number, but getting to a chest and getting to a rare takes about the same amount of travel time, and opening up a chest is typically WAY faster than killing these 66m hp base rares, lol.

I haven't seen that but then I also have not been looking up to see if anyone is flying around either.AdamSavage wrote:Some are already there. I seen someone earlier today flying.Sukurachi wrote:the exploration achievement is so stupidly easy, it's not even worth worrying about.

Re: Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
I just basically grinded rep as much as I could and then after DMF happened, I basically made sure I always had the buff on for everything I did Legionfall related. Also since patch dropped, I saved all my Legionfall Insignias until the fair opened lol
Otherwise the only "farming" I did was run all over the islands whenever I had a moment and just keep looting chests for resources to turn in.

Re: Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
Because right now, I get 3-4 daily quests, then nothing until the next day. And bosses I've killed give next to no resources, 2-6 at a time. not worth it for the amount of work some of those bosses entail.
Do I HAVE to go do that Cathedral heroic dungeon quest before further quests appear?
(I've tried queuing for it, but dammit 30+ minutes is too long for me.)

Re: Legion Assaults Removed from Pathfinder
I can't remember what's after the Cathedral quest, but I remember it gives rep too. If you haven't done the Invasion Quest Maiev gives you to complete one legion invasion (for 1500 rep iirc), it might be gated behind the Cathedral quest. But not sure.
