World of Warcraft - Gold selling ads in the sidebar


Gold selling ads in the sidebar

Posted: 09 Feb 2017 05:39 AM PST

Edit: the admins nuked the ads. They should be gone now. If you see one, let us know!

We've had a number of modmails about the gold selling ads in the sidebar. This is concerning since buying gold and/or boost services breaks the WoW ToS and can get your account suspended. Unfortunately, the /r/wow mod team has no control over the ads, but we're doing the best we can to get rid of them.

Here's a summary of what's going on:

  • We've reported the ads to Google Adsense (the ad provider)
  • We've reported the ads to the Reddit admins.
  • The admins have been in contact, and are investigating.

The ad we know about right now is in the top sidebar. If you see other ToS breaking ads, send us a modmail with a screencap and we'll take similar actions.

Fuck gold sellers.

Can someone shed light on a WoW mystery that has been haunting me for 8 years?

Posted: 09 Feb 2017 09:16 AM PST

About 8 years ago during WotLK, I did a lot of World PvP in Ironforge and the Deeprun Tram. As Horde, the fastest way to get there was by having the Goblin Transponder item that let us teleport from Stranglethorn Vale to inside of Gnomeregan. I then turned a few corners and hopped onto the Gnomeregan elevator which goes directly upwards and allows you into Dun Morogh.

One day I did just that, only at some point when I was on the elevator, I disconnected. I can't remember if it happened as I hopped on, or as I was walking off, or if it was in the middle of the trip, but it disconnected me.

I logged back in expecting to be where I was, but instead of being in Gnomeregan, I was all the way across the Great Sea in the middle of Feralas. And not just in the middle of Feralas, but high up in the canopy. But that wasn't even the weirdest part. The strangest part was the fact that THE GNOMEREGAN ELEVATOR CAME WITH ME. And apparently that little gnome in the back.

I didn't understand then how this happened, and I still don't now. I've heard of transportation vehicles such as the Gadgetzan and Booty Bay boats having strange mechanics built into them back then that took them on weird paths all over their continent during the loading screen, and I've heard of getting teleported to your faction's default graveyard (Barrens, Westfall) when things glitch out and you get stuck somewhere, but an elevator in Gnomeregan isn't the same as a ship or zeppelin and doesn't even cause a loading screen. What in the world could have made the game send me to Feralas after disconnecting, and why did the elevator come with me? If memory serves I was even able to walk around on top of the elevator platform once it was in Feralas.

Edit: Thanks for all the great responses guys

I want to share with you the best reason I've seen for afk'ing before pulling the boss.

Nighthold is incredibly atmospheric.

Posted: 09 Feb 2017 03:43 AM PST

I've been thinking about this for a couple days now.

 

The fact that Nighthold takes place within Suramar City, and is in fact a part of the outside world, fighting those bosses really feels like you're going through the city sweeping up the big baddies.

On Krosus for example, you can see the Tomb across the sea, Dalaran is right above the boss - I can imagine people in the city freaking out when hearing his shouts echoing in the night.

Or people around Suramar seeing the top of the Palace getting ripped off, then huge explosions and a freaking tear in the sky.

 

I also really like the overall structure of the raid zone - the Aqueducts, where a couple 'miscellaneous' bad guys reside, that we just stumbled upon, and take out as we go. Then we enter the city area and take out generals, high-ranking guys, and once we secured that, we go after Elisande, who's alone aside from her ritual-casting members. Then even higher Gul'dan, right above this incredible concentrated ley-power line, a beefed-up Karazhan if you wish.

Going around exploring the different rooms and hidden areas is great too, there are lots of additional details scattered around.

 

Every night we go in I have a great time, Blizzard really outdid themselves.

Kil'Jaeden is hidden among us (Theory)

Posted: 09 Feb 2017 07:31 AM PST

What soul did we put into Illidan's body?

The last we have heard of Kil'Jaeden, he was speaking to Gul'dan (via telepathy or something along those lines) while Gul'dan was looking for the Tomb of Sargeras.

This can be found in the Blizzard Audio drama, which takes place right before the events of Legion. https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/20220886/the-tomb-of-sargeras-audio-drama

Anyways, Kil'Jaeden has been surprisingly inactive throughout our encounters with the Legion so far; or has he? You think someone as powerful as him would not simply just be hanging out at the bottom of the Tomb of Sargeras, waiting on us to come to him.

He is THE deceiver.

It's not a crazy thought to think he is among us now, pulling strings in the Legion's favor. It would be weak writing (in my opinion) to have no further setbacks before going to Argus. I think going to Argus will be a desperation mission, not somewhere to go to "keep the victory streak going." This leads me to my theory. Ready? Sounds crazy, but here it is.

We didn't put Illidan's soul into Illidan's body, we put KJ's soul into it.

Okay, that sounds crazy i know, but I'll break it down on how it can make sense:

  1. KJ is a deceiver, this is something he would do. When it comes to him, nothing is as it seems.

  2. The Legion betrayed our world Gul'dan already by killing him (ripping him to shreds by demons a long time ago). How poetic would it be for the Legion (KJ in Illidan's body) to kill and betray him again.

  3. Theories have been out there that Light's Heart could be KJ in disguise. Who was on on top of the spire to help us put "Illidan's" soul back into his body? Yeah. There's more there from other theories but it isn't too far out there. Light's Heart could be speaking to us, just as KJ spoke to Gul'dan. Everything we have come to know in our campaign comes from Lights Heart, if it's corrupt, so is our perception on what's good.

  4. KJ could have gotten to Illidan's soul first. He has it already in his possession, so lights heart sends us on a BS mission to prepare the way for KJ to take over Illidan's body. It could play out we go to the Tomb, find out that Illidan, who was "helping" us all along, turns into KJ and that we must defeat him. In the process, we save Illidan's real soul, which is in KJ's possession, and it finally returns to his body.

Things that this theory banks on:

  1. KJ can take the appearance of anyone. In this case, his soul going into Illidans body, but able to be shifted into his true form we see on the PTR data mining.

  2. Lights Heart is truly corrupt. It is weird how we failed to save the last Naaru that could open it, yet it somehow opened up anyway after Velens son destroyed the last key to it.

  3. Tomb of Sargeras ending on a sour note. Killing Gul'dan then turning around and killing KJ 4 months after him seems like a lot of victory in a short time span.

Again, this whole theory comes from the thought that KJ is a deceiver. If he were to just sit back and wait for us and be a simple final raid boss in plain sight, I would say Blizzard blew an opportunity there. I know it can sound crazy, but time will tell. All I know is something doesn't seem quite right (enter Suramar meme).

Let me know what you guys think! Any false information I gave please call me out, I'm not the biggest person in lore but I have found the lore in the expansion to suck me in.
