Invasions

Post by FuxieDK » July 29th, 2016, 3:34 am

I haven't really been online (in-game or fan sites), since I went on vacation, the day before pre-patch went live, so this question might seem trivial..

Is the Invasions active yet (if not, when?) and by extend the [pet]Felbat Pup[/pet] available?
Are there any other pets available during pre-patch, or do we have to wait until 30/8 for the rest?

Your faction Portal Stone: Just when you have thought nothing can improve your Bubble Hearth.

From a certain perspective, the demons seem to be pretty generous to us. :lol:

Not even that - Blue posts have confirmed that invasions will be on shorter and shorter timers as we get closer to the expansion.
Oh and the timer is now 3 Hours 29 minutes.

If you hadn't noticed yet, Invasions give awesome XP for leveling under-100 toons.

The only thing you can buy with Nethershards until level 98 is the Felbat Pup, from vendors near each of the Invasion sites. I expect there will be a glut of these pets on the AH after Legion launches.

Some tend to farm nethershards by resetting the scenario and tagging more skull mobs.
This is why there may be even too much pets. Boo.

---

Any success so far regarding the Dread Infiltrator event?
I investigated doomsayers in two days (a dozen or so hours), in various groups.
Max wait time -- 2h 50min. It took me seven attempts to get the toy.

There are opinions that it's better to join groups that don't camp but have just announced that the demonic spy is up. I can't agree with that. There is just not enough time to get to the target before it's dead… if you even manage to be signed before the group is full!

Nevertheless, after I had the toy learned I went to Westfall invasion and then back to Stormwind. Couldn't resist investigating some doomsayers again. The third one was fake, unnoticed, and I created such a group myself. :D
Not I was the one who pulled the demon, but people seemed to enjoy. I didn't get a second toy, tho. x)

And some think they are AH sharks selling them for 5k right now. So much impatience, seriously!
Wait several months, until the supply expires completely, and observe.

Yep!!!

From 75 to 88 and about 900 shards already, and decent equipment (raid are just a wee bit better, but not much), but the XP, is like double and worth it. It also does not seem to interfere with the "rested" XP, and my "rested" is still a ways off. That means I can finish 88 and 89 and head to the Garrison, and still keep the double/rested XP.

All in all, I have done a total of 2 instances with this one toon, since the Invasions. But having almost 1K shards is going to be fun ... what the heck am I going to use them on?

Also had 2 other characters at 94 and 96, and they are both 100 now, thanks to the invasions. (Druid and Mage)

Be aware that when under 85 or so, you are not going to handle the AoE's very well, and you may need to keep your distances, but if you are a melee, you will probably take a few falls, which might be frustrating. The damage is somewhat changed to match your level, but a big AoE, is still too much for the lower level. Still fun.

The worst part of it all is the targeting, since many players are marked PvP, or from PvP servers, and when you TAB for another mob, they show up ... so make sure you disable the PvP stuff, or someone is going to get a freebie off you, when they should concentrate on the fight instead. I really think that Blizzard should fix that, but a PvP player is no different than a mob in those servers?

So much this!!! I suspect that the tab targetting applies not only to PvP servers, as on a friendly territory, with PvP off, I keep people targeted even though I can't attack them.

Not to mention that as usual there are people that actually harm others for the purpose, because why not.

I stopped counting the felbat pups. The experience even without the boosts is just too impressive.
I wonder what about a DK with Weeee! (it persists through logout and calendar), that account-bound elixir and a lot of rested status? :lol:
