Hi all Sarranuva here and I’m back again with another video.
It’s been a while and I’d love to say I’ve been off playing The War Within Beta in a dark closet somewhere, but I haven’t – I’ve been focusing on some IRL things the past few months and I’m really excited for you all to hear about that but that’s for another day 😀
This video is for all of you are who are either returning to the game after a long spell or those who are time poor – like me – and need to know the essential things to prepare for The War Within – especially if you have early access through the Epic Edition!
We are literally over a week away from the early access of The War Within and I thought I would give you my top 6 – yes 6 tips, ‘cause ya know, Top 5s are boring – My top 6 things I will be doing to Prepare for The War Within Early Access Release!
Clear out your bank and sell your items
Sell your past expansion items in your bank on the AH – particularly your reagents ‘cause they WILL sell on the region wide auction house. You don’t need those herbs from Legion or those pigments from BFA so you might as well clear out the reagent bank ahead of the release and make yourself some gold!
Activate the Warbank tab on your warbank ALTs
Assuming you’ve chosen your top 4 characters for your Warbank, why not activate the Warbank tab so you can share all those Warbank-equipped goodies and all-round reagents you’ll be needing in The War Within.
It’s such a small thing to do, but get ahead of it – especially if you’ve cleared your reagent bank out and have stuff you can share.
Level up any ALTs in the pre-patch event
If you’re like me and have a handful of characters at 60 that you were definitely going to level in Dragonflight and never got round to it, then please take advantage of the pre-patch event! It takes roughly around an hour to level from 60-70 with rested XP if you focus on killing the mini-bosses over and over when they spawn and one small added bonus is that you get gear as you do.
Alternatively, if you fancy a new sparkly level 70 that will get ilvl 467 gear when Pandaria Remix ends, then now is the time to do it – The event ends @ 7am on the 20th August on US servers and 21st on the EU servers, so get cracking!
Park your ALTs in Legion Dalaran
This is where the starting quest begins so park your ALTs (and your main) here in the coming days before launch so you waste little time logging in and getting the starting quest started!
This will be especially helpful when you are trying to level ASAP!
Consider a Dual-Gatherer as your main
If you’re like me and you’re not that bothered about getting into Mythic+ quickly or getting geared for raids, then why not consider making the most of a side hustle and play a dual-gather in the early days of the launch.
Not only will you get additional XP, but you will also be able to sell the materials for A LOT of gold in the early days as people with crafting professions will be buying materials instead of farming them to be the “first-to-market” and establish themselves as the go to on a server for crafts.
And last but not least:
Update all WeakAuras and Addons on release
There is nothing worse than finding our your addons don’t work when you’re in the game and after a long login queue, so do the addon updates before you start! This will make it much easier to play the game and will limit logins (if there’s a queue). It’s also a good time to remove some of those WeakAuras that you might not need as well from past expansions.
And that’s it – a quick video showing 6 Things to Prepare for The War Within Early Access Release!
