going 1-800 fishing literally takes a few hours now.

go buy a shitty fishing pole in orgrimmar. go straight to draenor to any open water area and fish 2-3 casts and you'll get "secret of draenor's fishing" read it and you dont have to retrain until 700 skill. Then start hitting the legion zones, even at skill level 1-2 you can start fishing up useful fish, use the special lures you fish up for the achievement and you get +5 to your skill for throwing the fish back (you get 10-15 special fish per cast so you get around 50 skill ups every lure). i went 1-800 with artifact fishing pole in about 5-6 hours fishing 1 hour a day for a few days.

Sounds like a few hours too long imo.

Where are you seeing new legendaries?

I saw it linked on Wowhead from the warrior discord it was added recently, i could be incorrect about it going live in 7.1, maybe its something being added in nighthold?

So there are of course OP classes, and ones that are under-tuned, if we are putting it nicely. But I'm curious, at some comparisons between say my 855 Enh Shaman, and if I was a 855 Fire Mage. Would life be easy as pie, or would I not see much difference? I have nearly a 100+ of every class because of the grass is always greener syndrome. I'll see a mage like Morghus ( Burren Burren ) and be like dannnnggg I want a mage bad. Or see the upcoming buffs to Frost and it motivates me to be that token Frost mage! haha. But I'm thinking that I wouldn't see much difference to my shaman, and at the least be a hell of a while to even catch up in AP to do any kind of even comparison.

Right?

Take a loot at what Brew is able to do with an 860 (probably higher now) ENH Shaman. Beats all of us for DPS and he's mobile. In the fights where I have to change targets often, or move a lot (Eye, for instance) it's hard to sustain DPS.

You really can't go wrong with most classes. I'd suggest just sticking with what's fun. And, as long as you're able to do over 200k sustained dps throughout heroic, you'll be valuable to the raid. I would actually be pretty upset at this point, if Frost suddenly became the good spec and Fire was nerfed. Put a lot of time into this artifact.

Brew Janx Janx is awesome DPS but keep in mind he is like 870 ilvl with 2x Legendaries!

Enh Sham is definitely in a nice spot now, though.

Crone Crone , I don't think it matters what you play, you have WoW ADD :p

But like Burren said, play what you find the most fun. A lot of other classes appeal to me but I don't really have any alts right now because BM Hunter is a ton of fun for me. Hell, it's also ranked as one of the 3 worst class/spec combos for DPS but I still do decently.

TBH I like WW monk a lot and might switch back just because of the mobility. Surprised I don't see more of them but I guess they all go to the Friday raid?

We got one I think. The other 2 monks heal

We might have more and I can't remember. Do we have 5 monks? Dear god

I think there were at least two WW monks on the fri/mon raids, no? Lots of fuckin monks in general. Barely any rogues, hunters. No feral druids. One moonkin. Maybe one DK? No real DPS warrior either.

I botted from time to time to see how some things worked. It helped me lead a raid while tanking since some people needed to be told every single thing to do.

Fishing is so outdated and fucking stupid after playing Black Desert Online where fish botting is straight built into the game. How they've gone all this time without changing it in any way whatsoever is concerning.

They just need to start from scratch and redesign fishing altogether. As it sits right now, if I had to do anything important in the game and it required fishing - i might just quit for that content patch.

I believe that's why they wouldn't put anything important behind a "fishing" wall...

Fishing rewards (outside of cooking, I suppose), are pretty self contained - much like the pet battle system.

There are for sure safe fishing bots out there, that just read screen images looking for the bobber, and listen for game sounds to listen for the splash to know when to click. Works fucking fantastic, and since it doesn't inject, is perfect safe.

Yeah, the Enh shaman isn't lacking in being able to DPS, like some classes. There is for sure a reason that it's the #1 DPS when you look at Heroic raids. That's why I was asking if I'd see much difference between that and say a Fire mage, but I think both are really good, so there isn't gonna be much difference.

I do for sure have WoW ADD as Brikker Brikker put it. Finding friends to play with helps keep things rolling, or to lock in a class as you're the groups tank or healer, or one of the few DPS, etc. When you are free and wild it's much more difficult for me to lock in on a class and say yep, riding this one out until the end. Curse my PST time zone I suppose.

It surprised me how quickly we found two healers that do really well during our Heroic clears. We're looking for solid DPS to fill in the additional slots that were added with those healers. Of course, we would all want the 250k+ single target crowd - but we're pretty open as long as you know the mechanics well and tuesday and wednesday night are open for you. 7/7 Heroic clears each week. It usually doesnt take but a couple hours to clear Heroic, but other raids are coming! Guildies welcome, Cross Realm Welcome, New Characters welcome!

I made a Mage on Hyjal, but is there some other class-type need for the Hyjal-peeps? I figured I might as well use the boost since I didn't need it on my other server what with the crazy pre-expansion exp farm.
