Welcome to Tanking Tuesday, your weekly thread for everything related to standing in front of mobs and saying "HIT ME" and taking it like a champ. There is class specific advice below, but you can also post general questions that you have pertaining to tanking of any kind.

It would be a small, but useful addition.

They should make a mobile app that lets us do battle. That'd totally get me into it. As of now, I've never even touched it.

Idk how realistic or possible that'd be, but it's one aspect of the game I've never experienced even a little.

I'm sitting at 331 paragons chest opened but I still miss 2 mounts (130 nightfallen chest, no mount). On the other hand I have a wopping 600+ curious coin, and they are pretty useless after you got the puzzle and the turtle mount... I think it could be a pretty nice chance to have the option to buy paragons mounts with a certain amount of coin (250? Idk, just throwing numbers), especially since those coins drops for the said chests

By newer I mean a couple of months now. So I just arrived to Dalaran in Legion and oh my god. I knew that it was floating over the broken isles but when I walked to the edge and saw the land before me I felt so... eager to get there. The green sky, the sound of thunder, some random green beam in the distance, and the silhouette of the zone in general took my breath away. It truly does make the zone feel cataclysmic, like something extremely terrible is happening beneath you at all times. I felt like with the previous expansions this feeling was definitely lacking (even though they all share that similar narrative).

My immediate reaction was like, "Ok, so if you jump off Dalaran you will definitely be teleported to the ground" (thinking that this view was just a visual backdrop). But no, just to the right of me this guy hops on his mount and I see him fly down into the distance. I couldn't believe that a game THIS old could manage to pull this off. Even newer games like "Zelda: Breath of the Wild" had moments where distance was not "real" distance. Ex. If you jumped off any of the divine beasts you would quickly realize that you were in an instance because your character would basically fall into a kind of "void" portion of the game. Now this is a game that was released in 2018... Props to Blizzard for overcoming this challenge with such an old engine. It truly breathes so much life into the game.

That's murloc for "Welcome to Murloc Mondays - where people can ask any type of question about WoW without getting Strangles by a Death Knight.
Questions can range from whats new in Legion, what class is OP, and how many Demons will it take to down Thrall?
Questions can come from brand new players, players returning, or veteran players who never got a chance to ask the right question.

"At the hour of her third death, she will usher in our coming", and I think I know how.

Firstly, I'm fairly confident Il'gynoth is referring to Alleria due to the fact she says "Sometimes I feel that I have already died twice. Once when we were presumed lost on Draenor, and again when gripped by the shadow of the fallen naaru." That's good enough for me.

I don't think it's referring to Azeroth because, according to Xal'atath, Azeroth has already died three times. "This land has seen so much upheaval. The Cataclysm, the Sundering, the Scouring. You really have no idea."

I don't think it's referring to Sylvanas because she has also already died three times (killed by Arthas, suicide at Icecrown, killed by Lord Godfrey).

And I don't think it's referring to Jaina because her metaphorical deaths at Theramore and Stratholme aren't as convincing, but that's just me.

Anyway, at some point in the Netherlight Temple, Xal'atath says "The walls between realms are thin here, so easy to tear open. Do you know what would happen if true shadow and light would meet here?" Thing is, we do. Kind of.

During the Nightborne introduction to the Horde, Alleria visits the Sunwell. Upon contact with its "waters", there is a violent explosion that tears open several void portals and summons in a bunch of void creatures. Do you see where I'm going?

My prediction is that Alleria will die her third death during BfA, and Turalyon will attempt to heal or resurrect her with the Light. The subsequent explosion will be what ushers in the Void Lords. Or Old Gods. Or whatever. Point is, we need to curb their romance now before it dooms us all.

EDIT:

I also want to bring up that there has been repeated mention of some kind of circle throughout Legion, but I can't figure out what it is.

At some point during Legion, Xal'atath says "This trifling skirmish is little more than a distraction. The true battle draws neigh as the circle nears completion."

Il'gynoth in the Emerald Nightmare says "Your coming was foretold in the rings. The long circle is nearly complete."

Sargeras tells Aggramar that "The circle nears completion. The mortals must not disrupt the rebirth."

Page 6 of Ogmot's Dream Journal reads "Other hammers here now. Dey talk and talk bout Argus. Bout da one dat got wakened. Bout great victory dat our enemy not even notice." But then the last page reads "Fool! Da circle awakened us all!"

THE NUMBERS, MASON. WHAT COULD THEY MEAN?

High Prelate Rata (zandalari paladin leader) after you complete a questline in Zuldazar:

"We are broken.

The light of Rezan has left us. Only a handful of those that followed the great king of the loa will have any sort of power, and even they are suspect.

Our life was devotion itself. Now who do we become?"

That is all.

Here's a few screenshots from our V2 alpha: home page, calendar, forums, recruiting (thanks to A Reddit Dystopia and Breaker One for allowing us to use these). For those who aren't familiar, it's a forum/calendar/recruiting/streams/media/docs/home for your guild, with Discord integration and a fully-featured mobile site/app.

Since launching Guilded on /r/wow almost a year ago, we've rebuilt the site from the ground up to incorporate the most popular feedback you all have given us over the last year, and we're calling it Guilded V2. We'll be launching it later this year, but I want to open early access to you all so we can get your feedback and make sure it's perfect when it launches. Your feedback and support has played a huge role in shaping the site and making this work worthwhile, so I'm really grateful and really excited to see if you all like it.

If you're interested in helping us out and trying it out for your guild, please leave a comment or DM me and I'll shoot you a code that'll give you access, which you can enter here. As always, honest questions/feedback/thoughts welcome!

^{*yes, in the last year we've gone from beta to alpha}
