The Queue: That’s a big horn

Welcome back to The Queue, our daily Q&A feature! Have a question for the Blizzard Watch staff? Leave it in the comments and we may choose it for tomorrow’s edition!

We have a bit of a short one today — y’all weren’t very talkative over the holiday weekend here in the US. That’s fine by me, though. After the holiday weekend, I’m not feeling particularly talkative!


LEIGHHUNT ASKED:

If I have an Inn dungeon quest but I no longer have my Inn, can I still hand the quest in and get the reward (I don’t have the Feather!)?

You can’t turn in the quest unless you have the inn. The NPCs spawn inside of the inn, so if there’s no inn, there’s no NPCs — even if you’ve completed the quests. You might be able to use someone else’s Inn if they have one in their garrison, but don’t hold me to that — I’ve never tried it, I have no idea if it works.


JONFORSDYKE ASKED:

which did you thing was better the talent trees of pre-cataclysm era or post cataclysm era? It seems in removing them a lot of customisation was lost. Ok you had set skills that needed to be taken but others where you had a choice. Should they bring the old talent trees back?

The only thing I miss about the old talent trees was having something to click every level. The new talents are, in my opinion, way more meaningful. The old one had more to click, but the vast majority of them didn’t do anything but a 1% increase to one stat or another — and then eventually you’d get a new spell, which was awesome, and that’s the part the current talent system still has.


@SCOTTLEYES ASKED:

Do you think Tanaan is sustainable long-term? Seems like alts are once again shafted by no “easy” BOA gear like Timeless Isle

I don’t think we’ve had Tanaan Jungle long enough for me to have an informed opinion, so keep in mind I’m going to shoot from the hip here. Yes, I liked being able to send Timeless drops to all of my alts, but I’m finding I’m okay with not being able to do that. I was only doing Tanaan Jungle on my main so far, but for the Apexis event this weekend, I took a couple of alts there to do the bonus quest. It was nice getting those gear drops on my alts. With the Timeless Isle, by the time I took alts there, they basically already had everything they needed — my main did everything on their behalf. I enjoy objective-based sandboxes like Tanaan and I enjoy playing my alts, so having a reason to actually play them there feels great. It gives me a reason to play them.

Will I get bored of Tanaan eventually? Yeah, I’m sure I will. For now, though, I’m having a good time — both on my main and my alts. Getting that gear feels great. It’s nice having something to do on my alts.


@ARTIST_PAT ASKED:

Why do Ken-Ken and Ashyo not count as pandaren? They are part of the Monk Squad!

Are they pandaren? No? There you go! Some monks are pandaren. Some pandaren are monks. Not all monks are pandaren, not all pandaren are monks.
