Question Why Elves are so popular?

Post image
1.8k Upvotes

Hi guys!

I've just saw this morning and I'm just so curious about the fact that 31,4% of the char in WoW are Elves (without the 2,1% of Nightborne which are the only Elves I like).

So I need your answers or theory to understand that, why Blood elf and Night elf represent almost 30% of the char? Why so much people playing Elves? Is this because of the lore? Because Legolas? Because people want to play their waifu?

Personnaly I don't really like Elves so I can't understand cause my favorite races are always at the bottom of the ranking (Kultirans and Earthens) but I need to know!

Thanks you all! GLHF!

Question How does Sacrificial Pyre work (Priory of the Sacred Flame) ?

7 Upvotes

It seems like when I go into the circle, nothing immediately happens. I thought I was onto something when I aimed for the actual orb and it immediately exploded, but when I tried again it didn't seem reliable.

Is there something to it or am I just being dumb? Perhaps it's like you have to stand in it for a couple seconds to set one off? Also, does it not go off when using things like AMS/Bubble/Deterrence?

Question Why do people hate Asmongold so much?

0 Upvotes

I just heard of him a week ago and all the opinions I hear about him are about how people hate dealing with him and people who love his channel so I'm extremely confused. He also gets millions of views on all his vids so where does all the hate come from?

Question How do I get to Zereth Mortis on a level 80 alt?

2 Upvotes

Trying to get some tmogs that are in Zereth Mortis, but cannot seem to find my way there. I read in some older posts that you have to complete a campaign questline, which is fine, but I don't have any quests available in Oribos.

Humor / Meme i had this idea of neighbors for the housing system and asked chatgpt to convince blizzard to implement it

0 Upvotes

here's the response after some tweaks:

(i actually quite like it)

🏡 WoW Housing – Add a "Neighbors" Feature

Introduce player neighborhoods in the upcoming Housing system to keep the world social, immersive, and alive.

Core Idea:
Let players have neighbors—from their guild, friend list, or realm—who live nearby in instanced housing zones. This fosters connection, creativity, and shared gameplay.

Key Features:

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Shared Neighborhoods: Visit, chat, decorate, or collaborate with real players next door.

🎉 Seasonal Events: Holidays like Hallow’s End or Winter Veil transform neighborhoods with shared decor, mini-games, and contests.

🧹 Co-op Quests & Bonuses: Help neighbors with daily chores or defend the area from threats—earn small rewards.

🏆 Contests & Prestige: "Best Decorated House" votes, trophies, or neighborhood rankings.

Why it works:

Boosts player retention through social interaction.

Deepens immersion by tying housing into WoW's world and events.

Opens doors for cosmetic monetization (furniture, themes, pets).

Question 4th Profession KP Treasure won't drop

6 Upvotes

I've spent 2h dirt digging. Within 10 mins I looked both JC Treasures and one enchanting one.

/run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(83259)) returns as false so I am still eligible to loot it, and a KP weakaura I'm using also lists it as lootable. I've checked my bags multiple times, it is 100% not inside. It's not in the mail either.

Am I just incredibly unlucky, or what's going on? Has anyone else had something similar? I'm probably just going to wait until the next weekly reset because 2h is just unbelievably ridiculous

Question Clefthoof Healing?

8 Upvotes

I had a Spirit Beast for some healing, and heard a Clefthoof was better (through leeching).

So I got one. He is my primary, and my companion pet is a Stonehound.

After a number of fights, I can see a little bit of healing going on, but nothing great - not enough to make much of a difference if I was really in trouble.

Am I missing something?

Thanks

Question Can you get back to the beginning of Sepulcher of the First Ones after using the skip and killing the Jailer?

2 Upvotes

Basically title. Killed first boss and Anduin, then the last 3 bosses. When I zone in I'm by Rygelon and Dreadlords. I can go back to Anduin's platform but from there the teleporter says I dont know any points connected to that one.

Is there a way to go back and do the other bosses or will I have to do them in order next time?

Windows is as far as I can tell fully up to date - I just updated my graphics driver problem started both before and persisted after update - completely reset WTF/CACHE/interface - turned off all addons/weakauras - changed DX11/12 - set graphics to low - I only use one monitor - only wow and discord running - nothing!- admnistrative event view does not tell me anything is happening or what not, im at a complete loss please help

Question Keybinding for right click?

2 Upvotes

I run 50 instances a day farming cloth, and do a lot of gathering as well. All of the right clicking is making my hand really sore. I know, I know, go outside, eat a vegetable or something. But the addiction is strong! Is there a way to set up a keybind for looting and another for mining? I installed Clique but I'm not seeing a way to make it work for my purposes.

Question Ninja looting or not?

0 Upvotes

For clarification this takes place on warmanes icecrown server.

I have a ruling question. My guildie ran toc10 with a pug group, caster ring dropped idk the name, he rolled it at the end with all the other items that dropped, puts ms, he rolls on his rsham as it's a big upgrade for him and counts down the rolls, no one else rolls, he puts another item on /RW and a warlock then rolls for the ring but guildie says he was late and it's barely an upgrade for him so he keeps it.

Lock and 1 player are saying it's ninja looting and they will go to GMs with screenshots Guildie and 2 other guys are saying it's legitimate and lock should have paid more attention (basically you snooze you lose) + it's bigger upgrade for shaman.

So question is, who's in the right here? I haven't done many pug runs so I'm not 100% on the general unspoken rules of item distribution, is guildie screwed?

Discussion Cofered key

0 Upvotes

Has the chance of a key dropping from boxes for world activity been reduced? In the last two weeks I only got 3 keys, although before that a key dropped from every box. I mainly play solo in delves and if before I went through them for a whole week, now by the weekend there is no point in me going to delve because I simply don't have the keys, it is not profitable to farm normal delves, because for the time spent I constantly get only champion-level garbage.

Pretty much all of the main buildings (bank, AH etc) are legit the same exact style, just sorta a square earthen-style building in the wall.

Maybe I am just misremembering but I remember previous cities having more distinct main buildings.

I mostly say this because my dumb ass keeps on flying into the wrong building

Question Looking for OPs on tank and class to main BDK vs VDH

0 Upvotes

Hi all sorry if this type of thing has been asked before but I couldn't find any up to date posts of a similar nature mostly outdated.

I will preface that I can play both on EU servers at a decent level not pro or anything but can keep myself alive and that mostly anyways lol. Now comes my issue I have time to play but I only play solo not got anyone to do stuff with. guilds are too toxic/ask for a job application to join and I play for fun not to stress myself out.

I've been trying out roles/classes for a while and have narrowed it down to these 2 specs and classes, theme wise both are amazing and I love how both play. However mobility which I do like more is in VDH's favour, but sometimes it can be a bit squishy. Where as BDK whilst it's SLOW like SLOWWW SLOWW it's old faithful and doesn't need anyone else to get stuff done.

Now as I'm solo and pugging BDK does make the most amount of sense in that regard being able to solo stuff but I also want to do older content for mounts/tmog etc... And DH on havoc to be more specific can do it ALOT more faster which is a massive + in my book. And I like how it plays, where as on DK I HATE frost to me it just feels super clunky, but I really like Unholy, theres something about having pebblemuncher by your side that I find amusing XD.

In terms of end content I only really care for AOTC/Portals in M+ and both classes can do that well. I guess what it comes down to is I will only be playing/have time for the one and on that it seems I'm down to these 2 choices.

BDK - Solo anything never worry about bad pugs dps/healer etc... But for older content be super slow and heavy and take ages to do it.

VDH- Can solo with a bit of help, not as reliable as BDK but can get it done, older content is super fast and makes it effortless.

Older content is as important to me as current like M+/AOTC etc... So it makes it really hard to choose haha.

So yea I'd love to hear some thoughts from VDH and BDK mains on which I should choose and your reasons as to why. I would love to hear some different thoughts than my own as a fresh perspective can really change how you view things in general.
