Players in WoW Classics Season of Discovery have recently revealed a hidden resilience within WarSong Gulch that has led to a major shift in PvP strategies. This was confirmed in recent discussions by the community and Wowhead, which communicate that there is a 25% reduction in player damage output at WarSong Gulch without any mention from developers. Understanding the 25% Damage Reduction This 25% damage reduction has brought significant changes that were unannounced by the developers. It significantly changes the face of WarSong Gulch, thus necessitating players to change their methods of fighting. It affects all players making it an overall PvP experience. The Role of Resilient Gear Resilient Mail Coif, Resilient Cloth Headband, and Resilient Leather Mask are examples of new items which reduce damage by an additional 5%, building on the existing 25% discount. For this reason, they become valuable assets in matches at WarSong Gulch. Impact on Different Classes and Pets For instance,

World of Warcraft has tons of ways to make gold , but one that not many people have ever thought about is buying stuff off vendors! That's right, Vendor-Tron 1000 and Super-Seller 680 sell a few items that you can flip for a big profit. This method isn't going to work for everyone due to the competition and limited availability of items, but if you are looking for some cheap raid consumables or a lazy way of making gold then this might be for you. Strategic placement of alts When doing this method efficiency is key. Instead of following the caravan route, I would suggest placing alts at the vendor location. This allows you to buy the item as soon as it pops on the vendor instead of chasing down the vendor which will always be slower and less profitable. It also prevents you from dealing with other players who snipe your items. Vendor Locations & Timings The vendors alternate between these two spots and their exact locations can be found on WoWhead. Each time the caravan tra

This takes place in WoW Classic Season of Discovery where you can increase your DPS significantly without breaking a sweat. The great thing about this method is that it is more effective during holiday seasons, which makes it timely for raiders. The Mechanical Greench – A Game-Changer What makes this DPS boost possible is the Mechanical Greench. It is a Ticking Present item found under the Christmas tree at Orgrimmar for Horde and Stormwind for Alliance. This gift requires one to be level 20 so that they can get a level 58 pet for ten minutes; this has to be done three times over ten days. And thus, only this pet alone can add significant DPS to your raid. Maximizing Mechanical Greench Usage When and how to use the Greench properly in raids is the trick. With its continuous aggression, ensure you summon it in such a way that no unnecessary crowds are attracted. Ideal for boss fights especially following trash clearance, it contributes around 70 more dps when buffed alongside boss debuf

To this day, it remains popular; it’s simply the older version of RuneScape. It was a fascinating tale: initially released in 2001 as a 2D MMORPG called Runescape, it underwent a major visual overhaul in 2004 that ushered it into three-dimensional mode

The Season of Discovery has seen a surprising rise to power for the Dual Wield Warrior build on the DPS charts in WoW Classic. Let's break down what makes this strategy so groundbreaking and how it is transforming warrior gameplay. VFD Rankings: A New Contender Emerges While looking through VFD's DPS rankings , I noticed something remarkable – there was a warrior averaging 247 DPS! This got me curious and I went deeper only to find out that he is a speedrunner and Twitch streamer. Though I won't use his footage for propriety's sake, I'll give a comprehensive analysis of his style. Dual Wielding: Not Just Another DPS Build This warrior's method is highly successful but unorthodox. He changes from two-handed to dual-wielding weapons based on the fight, often doubling his nearest competitor's dps. His build is all about meter-chasing to exploit particular strategies for maximizing dps. Abusing Strategies for Maximum Output For example, in Lady Cabz encounter, h

Welcome to our special Thursday edition of the Runescape 3 Market Watch! Today, we are going to break the routine and bring you the latest market insights. Let us plunge into the Grand Exchange world by scrutinizing significant price fluctuations and unraveling lucrative player opportunities at various levels. Market Updates This week's standout update is on Santa Grotto Treasure Hunter promo with items such as Purple Santa Hat and Magic Note Paper. While these things do not really influence the market much, they are still worth mentioning for shrewd dealers. Additionally, we have thrilling news about RuneFest 2024 which is a must-attend event for the community. There were no major game updates this week so let's look at fluctuating prices at grand exchange. Price Rises Invoke The Lord of Bones : This item has had a significant jump up to 66.2 million due to an update that happened recently. Its newness might result in its fluctuation of prices. Cannonballs and Exoplasm : Both

If you're looking to master the T19 Abattoir of Zir Speed Farm in Diablo 4 , you've come to the right place. I'm here to reveal the secrets to my Rank 1 Druid build, which is dominating the leaderboards. Why My Build?  Starlight is at the heart of my strategy, which is very different from the small petting zoo builds that are prevalent. In order to maximize glyph leveling and an enjoyable game experience, I aim to strike a balance between damage and resource generation while maintaining survivability. This allows for faster leveling up of glyphs. Paragon Board Modifications  My build's success is due to the modified Paragon board, which prioritizes HP. We're basically making each increase a defensive one by focusing on HP nodes. Starlight Aspect & Elemental Snapshotting  This aspect is essential to my build, and it allows us to forgo the Tibl will and go with a more balanced approach. A neat trick here is 'elemental snapshotting' – start with a two-hande

We are discussing the crucial changes needed in Phase 2 of Season of Discovery in this Guides, covering everything from PvP improvements to enriching the overall gameplay for hardcore players. PvP Event Enhancement Firstly, PvP needs to be revitalized. With the introduction of Arena Grandmasters and the Tidal Charm, PvP will become a major focus. I propose transforming Ashenvale into a more dynamic experience for PvP. Imagine a scenario where players protect or hunt a specific named player, adding an exciting layer to the PvP event. The change could lead to a significant improvement in the PvP experience, thus making it more strategic and engaging. Layering Issues in PvP There is a need to address layering in PvP as well. Currently, the multiple layers dilute the intensity and stakes of PvP. Reducing layers would increase excitement and prestige, especially around coveted items such as the Arena Grandmaster and Tidal Charm. Maintaining the integrity of PvP requires this refinement. Cla

Season of Discovery is the new Classic Plus experience! As many players are reaching the pivotal level 25, there are often questions about what to do next. I have personally experienced this with my Rogue, and after consulting the classic community, I have compiled a list of essential activities for players reaching Level 25.  Complete Your Class Runes Collection: It is important to note that each class in Season of Discovery has a unique set of runes, which offers a variety of gameplay options. Have you completed your collection? If not, now is the time. These runes will enhance your abilities as well as allow you to use various builds in Season of Discovery. Prepare for BiS with these pre-BiS and BiS items: At level 25, new gear opportunities emerge. Dungeons such as Deadmines and Wailing Caverns are still relevant, offering top-tier pre-raid items. For the ultimate gear, tackle the reimagined Blackfathom Deeps raid. Dive into PvP - Battle for Ashenvale: Join the Battle for Ashenvale

The Path of Exile league mechanic has been designed to provide you with an in-depth guide to help you navigate its intricacies, offering essential tips and tricks to improve your gameplay. Whether you are battling empowered bosses or exploring high-level zones, our strategies will help you make the most of your adventures in Path of Exile. Understanding the League Mechanic: Path of Exile offers a unique mixture of challenges and opportunities as part of the league mechanic. One key aspect is the presence of empowered bosses, which can significantly ramp up the difficulty of the game. It can be risky to engage with these bosses in places such as the Desecrated Chamber, but it can also be highly rewarding if you take the right approach. If a boss appears to be dual or triple empowered, it is essential to assess the risk prior to taking action. Tips for Efficient Looting: Choose Your Battles Wisely: Avoid engaging with the league mechanic in the presence of a powerful boss unless you'

I've spent quite some time exploring the Abattoir of Zir and pushing my limits, especially with my Penetrating Shot Rogue build . I'd like to share with you the best and worst monster sets and maps. Pushing Through the Tiers: The difficulty spike beyond tier 10 or 11 was noticeable. Monsters gain approximately 19% HP per tier increase, but their damage output remains the same. Top Tier Skeletons and Red Spiders It offers a safe and dense environment, perfect for farming and progression. The spiders, in particular, provide significant experience yields, which allowed me to clear Tier 14 with this set. High Tier - Skeletons and Poison Spiders It is similar to the top-tier combo, but is slightly more challenging due to the additional danger posed by the poison spiders. Mid Tier - Skeletons and Drowned Avoid crowd control challenges from charging enemies. Most enemies are easier, but Skeleton archers can pose a challenge. Lower Tiers - Bandits and Cultists, Cannibals, Pets, and Kn

Hey fellow Diablo 4 enthusiasts! As a Hardcore rogue who's recently conquered a Tier 14 in the Abattoir of Zir, I've got some thoughts to share. While there's a mix of feedback on this feature, I believe it's an innovative step from Blizzard. However, it's not without areas needing a serious upgrade. So, let's dive into the specifics, discussing everything from the general setup to the rewards, difficulty, blood Seekers, and even those pesky exploits. Basic Features of Abattoir of Zir The Abattoir of Zir , in essence, mirrors a Greater Rift (GR) from Diablo 3, with leaderboards and streamlined progression. However, the user interface (UI) is where it falls short. Critical information, like the tier you're running or the run's duration, isn't readily available post-run. This lack of basic UI elements is a significant oversight, especially when compared to the polished GR system of Diablo 3. Moreover, there's a mysterious absence of afflictions, le

Welcome to the Abattoir of Zir! The latest Diablo 4 event presents a formidable Pinnacle challenge. Early players at BlizzCon hinted at its near-impossibility, especially beyond tier 10, with daunting enemy health pools and lethal foes. As a Necromancer pushing tier seven, I've felt the escalating difficulty. Even top players are retreating to farm glyph XP at lower tiers. The stakes are high - failure in the Blood Forges means losing precious Sigil Powder, essential for crafting and progression. Navigating Powder Costs and Crafting Sigils Crafting a tier one Blood Forged Sigil costs a hefty 800 powder. Each tier increase adds 50 more powder to the cost. Surprisingly, completing a Blood Forge yields a substantial return of Sigil Powder, making early tier clearing profitable. However, maintaining a minimum of 800 powder is crucial for crafting and progression. Efficient Sigil Powder Farming In the event of a shortfall, dismantling high-tier normal Nightmare Dungeon sigils is your go

We're delving into the mystical world of Occultists and their gear affixes . Whether you're new to the game or a seasoned veteran, understanding how to check and optimize your affixes is crucial.  Locating the Affixes: In Diablo 4 Season 2, the Abattoir of Zir has brought a new enchantment feature that allows you to view possible affixes on your gear. Here's how to find it: Head to your Occultist's inventory screen. Look for the "View Possible Affixes" option, usually located near your gear's affix slots. Understanding the Affix Pool: Once you've accessed the affix view, you'll see a list of potential affixes for your gear piece. These affixes include a wide range of attributes, such as critical damage, elemental damage, and more. Optimizing Your Affixes: Now, let's say you want to roll for a specific affix, like "damage to close enemies." Here's how to go about it: Select the gear piece you want to improve. Locate the affix you

Abattoir of Zir Pulverize Build Guide for Diablo 4 aimed at maximizing Pulverize effectiveness in difficult environments. As a result of its exceptional AOE capabilities, this build is capable of tackling Uber Lilith and high-tier nightmare dungeons with ease. Mechanics at the core:  This build incorporates the Overpower mechanism, which is triggered by various actions and conditions, ensuring a constant flow of devastating blows. Rotation of skills Pulverize is your primary offensive move, complemented by Blood Howl for defensive purposes. Poison Creeper has a pivotal role in enhancing damage output through the Heighten Malice node. Ultimate Usage Crowd control and enhanced damage against bosses are provided by the ultimate skill. Spirit Boons Primary: Weariness, Scythe Talons, Iron Feather, Pack Leader, and Obsidian Slam. Alternatives: Aven Wrath can be used to increase damage, particularly during boss battles. Equipment recommendations Helm: Start with Disobedience, transition to

The Shako Helm, or Harlequin Crest , is one of the most talked-about items in Diablo 4. After running over 350 Duriel Runs , I finally got one, and it was well worth the effort. This item is widely regarded as one of the game's best items, and it has universal utility. It's a sought-after piece for adventurers of all classes and builds. Shako's Power and Versatility Shako's +4 to all skills is a game-changer. This boost translates to approximately 20% more DPS for your main skill. Furthermore, it grants your character a defensive aspect, akin to the 'might' aspect, improving your survivability. Shako offers impressive stats in life, resource, cooldown, and more. Trade-offs Shako's armor is lacking in comparison to other unique armors in Diablo 4. I've discussed armor in previous videos, highlighting how a slight deficit can significantly increase damage taken, especially in T100 nightmare dungeons. In future updates, armor caps would need to be even high

In Diablo 4, understanding the mechanics of attack speed is crucial for Sorcerers. There's a global attack speed cap at 5 attacks per second, regardless of the amount of attack speed you stack. This guide aims to debunk some common misconceptions and provide a detailed analysis of how attack speed works for Sorcerer skills. The Hidden Attack Speed Cap First and foremost, no matter how much attack speed you accumulate, you cannot exceed five attacks per second. This cap applies even if your character screen displays a higher base attack speed. We've conducted extensive testing to establish this limit and its implications for Sorcerer builds. Base Attack Speeds of Sorcerer Skills Sorcerer skills don't uniformly follow the base attack speed displayed on your character screen. Through rigorous frame-by-frame analysis, we've determined that the base attack rates for Sorcerer skills vary between 1 and 2.2 attacks per second. These findings are crucial for tailoring your buil

The Abattoir of Zir is a pivotal endgame content coming soon to Diablo 4 . My TLDR summary of the recent Blizzard campfire chat highlights the excitement of the Abattoir of Zir, which focuses on how to prepare and succeed in this challenging quest. Abattoir of Zir: An Overview In the Abattoir of Zir, which is similar to the Greater Rifts, you are facing Blood Seekers instead of typical bosses. I was able to witness this firsthand and share feedback with Blizzard staff, particularly regarding the transition from boss battles to confronting Blood Seekers, thus improving game dynamics. Preparation and strategy: Know Your Enemy:  The Blood Seekers are formidable opponents, more difficult than the likes of the Butcher. While they are not excessively tanky, they require strategic handling. Life and Death Stakes: You have only one life in Abattoir of Zir, a high stakes game whether you play as a solo player or as a group. The prerequisite sigils are expensive, making failure costly. Build an
