Let's go! (War Effort)

[Vekkasha 0]

1. Check out the public war effort progress sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1x03BIdgIne9SVIOc016T-eHgx-cJZkXv6sEsYXD9yh8/edit#gid=1600352199

2. Grab 30-90min of your precious time and use it to farm stuff thats low on the sheet.

3. Turn it in instead of putting it on the AH, even if it gives 0 rep or you don't need any rep.

4. Together we can maybe open AQ one or two weeks earlier!

That is sweet and I believe a bit more players are putting time into it. Even if we'd finish it within 1-2 weeks I believe there are issues which kill the entire point of rushing it.

There are things which still hold back a lot of people and guilds from even caring about it since they are powerless in their regard :

- AQ not being ready.

- PTR barely even starting when the applications have been sent a month ago.

- Autocomplete not being set to a flat % each day but rather at the liking of whoever is doing it on the realm depending on their progress or not.

- Player base has been told more than a month ago AQ was 80% finished during a Q&A session.

- The staff's intent was to have War Effort completed within 3-4 weeks. It has been exactly 4 weeks (announcement was made on March 3rd) as of today and we're bit more than halfway through, even after numbers squish.

Perhaps once these issues are being addressed, more players would be willing to spend time farming. For now it seems as long as staff keeps on making the wrong decisions and delaying, players on Anathema are just gonna keep on raid logging and let things rot on their own.

^ this is exactly the thought of most of the raidloggers

I can tell you for a fact that Scuba Cops has a guild wide effort and incentive program going for farming War Effort materials. We've contributed 20k+ items since the rework. Everyone can do their part and help a little at a time!

This is the problem, what good are open gates with closed raids?

Not sure how anyone can prove AQ is not ready until the gates are finally opened....

The war efforts will be completed and people will bang the gong and the 4 hour war or whatever will happen but the gates will never actually open until they're ready AKA 2018.

It's open source. Go check it for yourself. PTR barely has started.

The prequest for the turnins starts with the gnome by the Auction House on alliance, or with one of the Senior Sergeants on horde.

The Council of the Long Beards has made it abundantly clear that the dwarves of Khaz Modan have no interest in helping your stupid war effort.

@Link There seems to be a display error on the war effort values. It is currently displaying the old values.

Source code is open source on github, also, PTR I guess. I just think they could've simply stated it openly:
AQ40 release has been delayed due to circumstances. Instead of being dodgey and releasing a war effort with sky-high requirements.
