Thanks! Hubby will be pleased that he can get back to one petRikaku wrote:From what Bendak has posted on his BM Guide, actually the BM spec with 2 pets is weaker.

But when I read the Talent and Sim portions of the guide, it didn't seem like Animal Companion was too far off, so it may still be viable for some who don't care (or aren't Mythic Raiders racing against the world lol).

Dang, I didn't know about that. That is really disappointing. I have like, 5 characters that can use that and it was super nice.Valnaaros wrote:Apparently, the order hall ability that allows some classes to auto complete a WQ will be removed tomorow. The item that you make for it will be greyed out and the ability will be replaced by something else.

It may scale better later, but as it stands, the Animal Companion talent is basically for show.Tårnfalk wrote:Thanks!

Icy Veins disagrees. The BM guide, done by by Azortharion, says:SlickrockGhost wrote:It may scale better later, but as it stands, the Animal Companion talent is basically for show.Tårnfalk wrote:Thanks!

"Animal Companion does almost the same single-target DPS as Killer Instinct and is a totally viable choice. We prefer Killer Instinct because it does not rely on any additional pet AI."
"Dire Beast also provides nearly identical single-target damage to Killer Instinct and is a viable choice, but we prefer Killer Instinct because it is passive."
According to them everything on the 1st tier does nearly the same damage, so I would just go with what you want on that tier.

Re: Battle for Azeroth Alpha/Beta General Thread
Blizzard is stupid and decided that "OPTIONAL" beta updates would be required for WoW. So most people got hit with the update warning. You have to download it and install the optional update.

Re: Battle for Azeroth Alpha/Beta General Thread
Like Valnaaros and I both said, the Burning of Teldrassil/Battle for Lordaeron doesn't start till next week (that and the "prepatch event" are the same thing, btw) and that seems to have answered your question? I don't think that you'll have to have completed any other quests to start the events.Iceflight wrote:I buffed my main char to 110 I never did a single quests.. I thought the prepatch brought on some special questlinie.. Do I really have to do other quests to get those? Thats sad.. I dont even know what the Silithus Quests is...
And the Silithus stuff, honestly not sure if you need to worry about that. It was just a bit of questing regarding the final events of Legion, and at one point buffed your artifact. But the artifacts are dead now, so who knows what it does? I already did the Silithus quests on my characters, so I don't if they're still offered, but I wouldn't worry about it. Story-wise, it goes basically: at the end of the Burning Throne raid, Sargeras stabs the planet right in the ol' Silithus with his giant Titan sword, causing Azeroth herself to be injured, after which King Anduin Wyrnn gives a speech about those who sacrificed to defeat the Legion, Mathias Shaw and Genn act a little shady and tell Anduin about this new thing in Silithus that they found, called azerite, which is crystallized blood of Azeroth the world soul and immensely powerful, you the hero are sent there to check this out, you kill some goblins and take their things, you kill some silithids and take their brains, you go deal with some Twilight Cultists who are STILL hanging around, you take a letter to Magni and Khadgar, you go back to Magni, then up to a gunship hovering near the eye of Sargeras' sword, you and the other champions of their orders raise their weapons to siphon the dark energies off the sword, your weapon gets super-op and then burns out. If you want to see the cutscenes of Anduin's speech, or the Horde equivalent, or of the champions draining the sword, I am certain youtube will have that available
