***World of Warcraft : Warlords of Draenor***

Re-activated my account at the weekend after not touching WoW for a good 2 years, god I felt dirty doing that. Got a few friends on Tarren Mill so rolled there on horde side and used the level 90 boost to get my warrior to max level before the expansion hit.
Currently just levelling mining and blacksmithing to 600 as quickly as I can, up to around 350 now on both. Is there a fast way to do blacksmithing? So far i've been grinding all the lower level mats I need to make recipes etc. (good god the 660 Thorium Bars was a snooze-fest)
I know with mining, and any gathering profession, you can go 1-600 in MoP with the changes to nodes but wondered if there was a fast track for the crafting side?
 
I think they are making it easier in WoD, leveling crafting professions as a whole is easier I believe, but no easy way at the moment other than just leveling it, no.
 
There is now no requirement to collect items you just run the risk of getting trash instead of a usable item, Not sure if this is pandaria only or if it is game wide.

Not true, you don't get trash. If you are under the usual requirement so under 500 I believe, instead of getting a rain poppy for example, you would get a rain poppy petal, you can combine 10 petals into a standard rain poppy. It's a lot slower gold-wise but a lot faster to level it up. You'll still get a lot more gold if you go around and do it normally through the old zones, its just faster this way.

Awful explanation but you should get the idea.
 
You don't need to level them for the garrison. If you create the mine garrison you can mine it without having a mining profession. Same with herb.

yep i wouldnt worry about boosting any professions before WOD, every prof will be able to start from level 1 on draenor alone as they have extended on the mists method for herb/mining to all professions.

On the beta i would guess that your mine and herb garden harvest about the same as your farm would in pandaria if all plots were filled out with herbs or ore.

Once you get a follower with a mining/herbing skill sent to those areas you also get a decent boost to the rates by having minecarts or specific gardens etc

The garrison adds a lot to the game but make no mistake the majority of your time in WOD will be spent there :D
 
Damn it does sound really cool. Quite excited for them, barely read about them at all so will be nice to discover it all.

Up to level 12 and off to Westfall.

I was looking to use the group finder but I says it is not available until level 85? Is that right or am I being dim?

Are you looking at the raid finder? It's one of the tabs in the same window, and that does indeed have a level 85+ requirement. The normal dungeon finder should still be level 15+ requirement.
 
Can any one help. I am racking my brain with this issue. Since patch i cannot do bgs and raids. When there is tons of people on screen it cant cope at all.

Not only large groups but when alone it can glitch and its just awful. I just dont get it. Its gone from being perfect before patch to unplayable.

Updated gpu drivers no idea what to do now. Turned down graphics and it makes no difference.

Reverted the overclock to the cpu and still nothing. Stumped with not long before wod is on us.
 
I have checked it on the wow forums. Its the same for a lot of people. Just locked my fps at 40 as advised by them. a lot of mac users are suffering also. But many with gaming rigs too suffering.

Everything is upto date i dont run that many addons. Wondering if many folk here have had the issue as you guys are well smarter and have fixes lol.
 
Anyone know how WoW looks on a 1440p monitor? Obviously will vary from monitor to monitor but generally. On a few videos I've seen the frames etc look a lot smoother and clearer. Just curious

What GPU you using? were you running any custom settings for the game in drivers or anything?
 
I must say if you have a Nvidia card that supports it, Enable DSR, Wow looks amazing in it, and I see no fps loss at all. with my 970 @1080p using DSR for 3840*2160 it doesn't move off of 60fps

Tried this but although it makes the aliasing look better the textures don't seem as good, it's like the is something lost in the downscaling.

It said 85 until I dinged 15 then it all changed and became available :p weird.

Up to 22 and enjoying Darkshire, been years since I touched this zone!
