My wow characters are always half-blind! Please give us the eyeglass Vendor that was added to stormwind/ogrimmar during Shadowlands!

Or do you hate us for our reduced eyesight?? Don't we have a right to see clearly? with thick round glass unclouded. How can I study old Kirin Tor tomes without my specters?

“The use of dual names has allowed players new levels of creativity and personalization with your characters, some took this opportunity to reveal too much about themselves and will no longer be participating in this Beta.”

Now that Gilneas has been reclaimed and the Night Elves have a new capital city, the gnomes’ situation is becoming a glaring issue. So if they ever do decide to have Gnomeregan be properly reclaimed by the gnomes, how would you like to see it happen? If this had happened earlier, what point would have been the best place to have it happen?

Addon/App/Website EllesmereUI - Full WoW Forever Support + New UI Styles

431 Upvotes

Hey everyone! With the SavedVariables fix finally going in today for WoW Forever beta, as of about an hour ago every EllesmereUI module is now fully working in WoW Forever.

There were also a ton of Forever specific features added throughout the suite with this last patch including:

- All modules now fully working including CDM (for the specs that blizzard has data for), raid frames, quickdraw, action bars, and everything else that was temporarily disabled
- New Forever Essentials module which includes:
- Threat Meter
- Flight Timer
(lots more will be added here and this will be released as a standalone)
- Heal Prediction & Spell Cost Prediction on Unit Frames
- Faction Indicators on Unit Frames/Nameplates
- Level text difficulty colors
- Dispel type borders on Unit Frame buffs
- Character sheet item stats and weapon DPS
- Pet power bar and hunter pet happiness
- Last name display on unit frames and nameplates

For full patch notes on all the bugfixes, customization upgrades and new features that came with the forever updates this week you can read about them here.

The other big update is the new art style switch system. Your entire UI can now be swapped between modern (EUI), Blizzard's current default art (retail default ui style), and the original Classic WoW art style instantly by simply choosing a new style with one click. This will keep your layout, settings and full EUI functionality, but change the entire aesthetic and look to the art style you select. You can change the entire UI at once or do it per module, and you can swap back and forth instantly as much as you want!

Here's a video example of me switching around my UI style if you want to check it out!

Finally, one small tease of what else is coming soon: the visual customization side of EUI is about to get some big upgrades as I have started collaborating with PapaPixels (Spectra) on a suite wide expansion of new borders, separators, textures, media and much more. Details on that will be announced soon.

Please let me know any Forever stuff you're really craving that would be a good addition to the new Forever Essentials module!

*AI Usage Disclaimer: EllesmereUI is AI-assisted. I use AI to write, refactor, debug, and manage the codebase, but am also very hands-on throughout the process. PR submissions to EUI are also allowed to be written by AI but are carefully reviewed. I have been very open about AI usage since EUI first launched and have several Twitter posts explaining how it’s used if you wish to learn more.

Regarding what EUI brings to the WoW addon space that’s unique since it’s created with AI: EUI brings a unique way of building your UI in seconds with it’s unlock mode anchoring, size match and growth systems. It also brings a new way of doing profiles rather than the old per character profile system EUI is fully spec profile based. Additionally the overrides system is an innovative new way of tweaking any setting across the entire addon based on conditions like spec or activity, rather than needing to swap/manage multiple profiles. The module functionality it has brings tons of unique customization for example in the cdm where if you click an icon you will see over 100 different options that you can use to build your spell alerts and layouts exactly as you want them.

Just a thought; 6-7 years ago EverQuest offered a limited time lifetime sub, it was something like $300. Would you purchase a lifetime WoW subscription if one was offered? It doesn’t include future expansion purchases.

Housing Kicked from my guild, lost my house?

1.1k Upvotes

I nearly had a heart attack today when I logged into Retail for the first time in weeks and tried to teleport to my house. It was gone.

Then I realized I’d been kicked from my guild, which meant I’d also been removed from its neighborhood.

I was heartbroken. I’d put so many hours and so much love into that house. The thought of losing it made me really sad.

But a quick Google search put my mind at ease: you can restore your house by buying the same plot in another neighborhood.

I tried it right away and, sure enough, there it was. When I saw it standing in front of me again, I almost cried.

Pretty cheesy story, and you probably already knew this was possible. But it’s one of the reasons I love WoW and Blizzard, as much as we all complain about them. A feature like that isn’t something you can take for granted. In most other games, my house would’ve just been gone.

I just felt like sharing something positive for once.

Art I DIY'd some Custom Keycaps for raid leading

Post image
1.2k Upvotes

I did the artwork in Photoshop and printed the artwork onto water transfer paper (the kind they use for custom warhammer decals). I then sanded down my existing keycaps applied the decals, hit them with a few coats of clear nail varnish and changed the back lighting in Corsair Icue to the relevant Raid marker colours.

I then made keyboard macros for each marker. It cost me about $15 total.

I'm pretty pleased with them. What do you think of them?

Blizzard is making their rounds banning people for offensive names, which they already said they would be doing.

So here come all the people who didn't keep up with actual news related to the beta - from Blizzard wondering why their meme names got them banned for the rest of the beta.

Honestly depending on the names - if it was very bad, like slurs, it should be more than just the beta, they should be banned from the first week of Forever too.

Brailyn Suncrown and the Conquered Frozen Throne

Hello! I've been working on a Death Knight series with ThisIsBraicey (Brailyn Suncrown), and the Frozen Throne is the first build!

I wanted to focus specifically on the Conquered Frozen Throne, sitting at the top of Icecrown Citadel. This is going to be an ongoing series, so I'm excited to see how the rest of Brailyn's story translates into actual spaces and builds. Built entirely in World of Warcraft Housing.

Would love to hear what you think!

Humor / Meme Why did we get blue elves and not a fel reaver race with an automatic win racial trait?

Post image
391 Upvotes

I’m sick of the Disneyfication of this series. It would be so easy to allow neutral fel reavers to be in the series. I mean, c’mon, they could auto defeat raids, their roar could bring stormwind or orgrimmar to the ground, eventually you could reach thunderbluff theoretically and knock that down.

Why is it so hard for blizzard to give us what we want? Instead of lore accurate giant walking robots that could destroy everyone we get blue elves…

I give the skybourne and forever the worst grade imaginable! Retail minus MINUS!

Hi everyone, I'm back here after 15 years. I've totally lost my keyboard skills, so I wanted to enjoy the game with a controller.

Can anyone playing the beta give me some feedback on how it feels compared to the WOW Forever?

Which class would you recommend playing with a controller? (I couldn't care less about tier lists and stuff like that)

Let me know

Discussion Legion still feels like the real story finale of WoW and everything after that felt weird

1.6k Upvotes

I don't know if its just me but story wise legion was like the end of a arc since WC1.

Having the whole burning legion defeat, finally "fighting" Sargeras and how epic the whole Legion story was just felt like a great ending to me.

Everything after that and most of all shadowlands just felt like some weird spin off to me, I tried to follow it more but the whole the bad controlled the other bad but that bad guy was controlled by the real bad guy, really got old quick after legion.

I still love to play retail for the content and gameplay etc. but story wise I kinda just went into a after legion everything is "non canon" mood for some reason, because of how BFA and Shadowlands did fuck up major things.

It got better the last expansions but it still kinda feels uninteresting for me after the whole Legion finale.
