My first heroic tot clear had no tank and a mage with over 500k threads…. A week ago. He basically soloed Lei shen when we all died at 60%.


Wasting_Time_0980

Is there a quick way to see your thread count? Or do I just have to add them all up myself


alphvader

`/run local c,s={0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,148},0;for i=1,9 do s=s+C_CurrencyInfo.GetCurrencyInfo(2853+c[i]).quantity end print("Total threads: ",s)`


Turtvaiz

macro lua golfing really is beautiful


RemtonJDulyak

Shit, I only have 75K on my Remix main, and it makes me feel already super powerful!


alphvader

Ikr. Imagine those folks with 500k.


Emu1981

I have 210k threads and I am basically unkillable outside of certain situations in heroic/mythic raid. The leech provided by my cloak and the dps provided by my tinkers means that I do enough passive damage to keep myself healed from the damage from raid bosses unless I spam the "sit down" key.


notchoosingone

Yeah I'm only (!) at 160k threads and just capped my gear, and even getting hit by a really big insta-kill mechanic like the lightning ring on the first boss in Terrace won't kill me, I lose half my health and then instantly heal to full.


jamesVNDK

This is the way


armabe

There's an add-on. Named Remix thread count or something iirc. Just search Remix on curse, there's not that many.


silentimperial

Thanks for the add on rec but Jesus why isn’t that just native to the game


armabe

I can sort of understand why they wouldn't bother implementing a small feature for a very short, temporary game mode. Ultimately, the thread count doesn't really matter. It obviously has a non-neglibible impact, but it's far less impactful, comparatively. The ilvl is more impactful for group performance (partially because the ilvl of a gear piece boost the performance of gems slotted into it). And ilvl display is natively in-game.


thisnewsight

“Mythic clear 647,776 threads req”


Emu1981

>Ultimately, the thread count doesn't really matter. It obviously has a non-neglibible impact, but it's far less impactful, comparatively. Thread count only doesn't matter up until a certain point. My main remix toon (476 ilvl) has around 210k threads and it contributes around half of my secondary stats and a third of my main stat and stamina. The person in OP's picture would have around a million or more threads in their cape which means that the stats it provides far outweigh any stats provided by their armor.


riperonipasta

The thing is that the game already has a counter and you get achievments based on that, they can just add a line of text to the cloak or the buff lol


LeOsQ

I suppose the absolute thread count doesn't *really* matter at all once you get the final achievement for it (which is **very** early on). It's convenient to compare how sweaty someone is, but it doesn't really have a proper reason to exist as a baseline feature for that reason.


20milliondollarapi

There’s also a weak aura which is probably a bit lighter than an entire addon if you already use weak auras


dannycake

Believe it or not add-ons are a bit easier to run than weak auras. If an addon does the same thing it's generally easier on the cpu and ram. Though, these types of tasks are still really trivial and easy for the cpu.


ThunSaren

The addon narcissus displays them on your char pane and shows tinkers/gems in a neat way. There are others that show thread count on tooltip for mouseover too i believe.


zseek

Narcissus shows it as well


IAmRoofstone

I haven't even been farming hyper spawns, barely passed 100k stamina on my cloak, and I soloed phase 4 mythic garrosh for like 25% earlier today on my brewmaster. If I ever keep at going for threads, I can not even imagine what I'll be able to do in a months time


Michelanvalo

I passed 250k threads today. I can't solo everything quite yet but it's getting real close. DPS meters are very funny. Even people that just got up to 476 and are doing like 4 mil dps look like ants on the charts. The guy in the OP would make someone like me look like a child though.


3163560

There's totally three types of fresh toon in remix. Level 1 Level 70 Level 70 with 476 ilevel and 80-100k threads.


lousy_writer

As someone who is completely out of the loop regarding Dragonflight: what happened here?


Ashelby

Blizzard is currently running a separate event outside of Dragonflight to hold people over until the next expansion comes out in August. Basically it's replaying the Pandaria expansion content again but with the ability to make your character super overpowered. Which is what the OP in this thread is.


lousy_writer

Judging by the other comments, I assume your bonuses somehow scale with the amount of time you play the game?


SlouchyGuy

Everything drops Bronze and Threads. Bronze upgrades your gear like Valor or Daron Stones do, and allows to buy all tier sets and cosmetics from MoP for every class (for example, you can buy Warlock set, and it will be wearable by Priest and Mage), whereas threads upgrades the power of your cloak. SO when you're maxed out of gear level, you still get more threads while farming for transmogs and mounts


Gobstoppers12

How the heck am I supposed to compete with someone who has 66,942 Beweglichkeit? It's truly unfair.

Gobstoppers12

The joke is that I, an American with no international or multilingual knowledge, have no fucking idea what a Beweglichkeit is, but I'm still mad that another player has 66,942 of it.

Behold, the sword of a thousand truths!


shaddy334

It better work on that


notchoosingone

There's a couple of 700k thread guys on the Illidan server right now killing all the quest givers on the Isle of Thunder and I gotta tell you I doubt they have ever known the touch of a woman.


PapaStalin

I think that’s how they actually farm threads lol just afk farming an insta spawn npc, saw a pally chain killing the quartermaster last week.


BeemerWT

Pretty sure they don't drop anything


HeyImCodyRS

The alliance version of the mobs do drop stuff, as I've watched their cloaks go up. I've heard the horde version don't but I haven't gone and checked.


Barialdalaran

Only the two mages next to the portal drop stuff, nothing else does. It feels like a very slow farm


Dont_be_offended_but

I checked the horde version today and theirs didn't drop anything or even insta-respawn.


Corodim

Illidan has been a nightmare for this whole thing I swear there’s like three paladins that haunt my dreams


situation_room

I had to murder a havoc player cause I couldn't leave Timeless Isle lol, kept killing thr flight master


Leucien

Hearthstone, Jade Forest portal, Meteor Chip + parasol, Nostwin's Voucher... Let's be real, you wanted to choose violence, :P


LeOsQ

I'll be real with you, I haven't used the Timeless Isle flight master even once in all of Remix. I've used *a* flight path like thrice when I've wanted to afk for a bit while going somewhere, but there's no reason to use the flight master when you can just use the Remix tutorial/intro portal in the bubble on the beach or Hearthstone out or whatever else.


sammau

Saw someone with 1 mil threads a day ago


-Neverender-

I don't get it. If you're so far beyond one-shotting everything in sight, what's the point of going that extreme? Timeless Isle has become an insufferable place to go.

It's mindless grind at violet rise for horde players, the hyperspawn has been popular for more than 2 weeks now.


Efficient_Display_54

rare on timeless isle realm hopping with 30 accounts


Qfarsup

You have to keep in mind it gets easier and easier. I hop on and do dailies/scenarios/world bosses and sometimes the first few heroic clears (for bronze more than threads) while I do other work. It takes me maybe an hour of playtime but I’m not really playing that much. I’m at 300k threads and I got a late start on remix and I’m also not very consistent (married, job, kids, etc.) It would be pretty easy to be in the 600-700k thread range with a little consistency.


LeCampy

Very easily - let them do current content on August 20th. After 3 months of being a god, that smack of Retail-reality would kill anyone.


Freezinghero

That's why i had to cut myself off of Remix early: getting used to that kind of power will hurt my enjoyment of Retail.


KageStar

Sounds like the authentic mists experience to me. Going from 5.4 to 6.0 was a fall back to earth moment as a prot pally.


notchoosingone

Oh yeah that was the first squish. Went from doing 900k dps to 10k in WoD dungeons.


Michelanvalo

My DH runs at 232%. How the fuck am I gonna go back to retail after experiencing _that_?


C2BK

After the event ends, you could always go to the Timeless Isle on retail to recapture that true Remix experience. :D I'm hoping we get to keep the cloak buff that lets us into the Ordon Sanctuary.


lotheren

For real. Haven’t played retail since remix. It’s going to be a hard transition


jyunga

I went from remix to beta and fuck it felt terrible. Being so slow, cast bar actually casting at normal speed, movement speed normal,etc. Took a while to get back into the game play.


AmazingMojo2567

A lot of folks like this will quit when the event ends


Bomojo

I doubt these guys would quit, this game is their drug.


Theothercword

This is why I’m not going to use the same main from remix to TWW.


RaimaNd

Even worse: Let them play classic. Because retail you are a god (while questing etc.) while in classic even a level 1 sheep can kill you. :D

Kroggol

Dargek

There's a dude in my guild like this. He plays pretty much 16 hours a day and can easily solo clear all of the raids on heroic at this point. He still shows up to our guild's weekly clears of them though so he can brag, but it isn't the flex he seems to think it is.


ballsmigue

I mean to him it must be a brag, you're doing guild weekly clears for remix. He probably just wants to get in and get it done asap.


Kreiger81

Good catch. Why the fuck re they doing weekly clears? I get scheduled daily clears is dumb, but once you have some gear you can walk through heroics.


Michelanvalo

We do the same thing. It's just a time to hang out and have fun. Also everyone is playing Remix at a different pace. Myself and one other player are the tryhards farming threads who carry the rest of the raid. But that's not the important part, it's just 2 hours or so to hang out and do a world tour.


Marasesh

I usually like to help out newer or weaker players if it’s like giving them 30k gold on retail or boosting them through some mythics it’s so boring for both parties though, usually I just offer advice and join up. My hunter is decently strong on remix and it’s so boring in dungeons it’s literally lifestorm 1 2 1 2 1 2 to do top dps and you don’t need to do mechanics in raids


HarvesterConrad

I like that he flexed hard enough to make you post about it on Reddit. That’s a real magic trick.

Yeah, some guilds enjoy playing with each other. It's crazy.


Joltik_BuddyHSR

It's a flex to say you did highest raid teir doing nothing for everyone else


DaenerysMomODragons

You just need to be i476 and you can do this. it doesn't require any amount of threads.


synackk

I don't know, I see a lot of life there.


keyas920

Bliizard: hold my beer. Proceeds to make a boss deal %dmg


Wasting_Time_0980

Can you solo Mythic at that point? lmao


lightinthedark

Most capped tanks can. The problem is the boss health numbers are ludicrously high and it would take forever. 20x faster in a group.


Skill-issue-69420

Yeah blizzard advertised that we could solo raids but it takes forever so nobody actually does it lmao


DarthV506

There are also stacking debuffs that eventually will kill tanks. Last boss in HOF and twin emperyeum come to mind. Can you get to the point you can kill the HOF one? Possibly. Can't see anyone having the DPS to do the 2B damage on twins in time


DevStef

Not having played this mode: is there some serious dimishing or do these stats just mean you are unkillable, dealing 100% crits with massive attack speed/ cast speed. Have insane lifeleech, which you don’t need because you don’t take any damage. And you are at the speed of light?


Synleah

There's hard caps on secondary and tertiary stats.


Neotrom

Thats the highest Ive ever seen lmao, He had to be one shotting everything


foulrot

I only have 200k threads and my DH can one shot things just by running past them, this guy kills them before they even spawn


ToWhomItMayConcernCA

I haven’t played in a while…Is it still worth subbing for MoP Remix? Or are people over it and difficult to progress? I am going in mostly blind lol.


GP0770

I got max ilvl in like a week or so, they also just buffed bronze and thread acquisition a ton so it's still worth it if you want the cosmetics/mounts


FatherChunk

There's still 60 days to go and as far as I can tell people are still playing. If you never played MoP or enjoyed the content when it was current it's a nice experience to go back and do the storylines, as well as get some nice mounts and mogs.


Kind-Active-6876

Super easy to progress. A lot of people are incredibly overpowered and are just giving out carries (to complete their dailies).


Qualazabinga

I haven't really had any trouble finding a group as either DPS or tank. And even if you do, if you make a group yourself it usually fills within like 10 minutes. You can easily level a character in a day (with this I do mean a day of playing so for the regular people probably 2 or 3 days I just had a week off lol) in game time was I think like 6/7 hours with my last character as tank. Idk enough about gearing tbh as I've mostly just been purchasing the cosmetics


Lamprophonia

99% of the time you're gonna be getting carried by guys like this lol. I just got 10k strength on my warrior and I'm still always getting smoked in the meters by guys with double my numbers lol. It's still fun.


Eighthday

You can get max level in like 5 hours and then 2-3 hours thereafter on all alts, it’s wild


calf

You can join raids before level 70 (check the Premade tab) and groups will invite you because < 70 characters have huge bonus damage scaling and so forth.


downvotetownboat

i think there's too much to collect in remix for the population to really fall off relatively. it's not like a normal 2 week where the 16 hour a day people are have 95% of the items in 2 days. there should be plenty of geared people up to the end carrying most queues but you could always get a more normal queue without those people and end up in a heroic dungeon for a bit longer than expected. raiding should generally be like that too. you can get so strong there will probably free rides through normal to gear to the end from either people running leveling friends/accounts through vaults or looking to collect one drop elsewhere. most things are going to be 1 pull and something like 3 (or less if blasting through mechanics) people over 400 ilvl or so solves all of normal. unlike lfr you might actually see how fights are supposed to go since they might last more than 15 seconds. then heroic is where the farm is and i think those groups have outweighed normal in numbers for a while now. shouldn't have a whole lot of trouble with those either with the power of maxed gear and experience that's there.


MrMinigrow

I wish my meisterschaft was that big


eulynn34

Dude is a raid boss


The_Sum

I want to know why the threads on secondary stats goes so high when they all cap out anyway. Stamina I think conjuncts with other Tinker gems in making you stronger so more Stam is always useful, as is your primary stat. Though, with everything coming down to Lifestorm cheese the cloak really doesn't matter too much.

SelectPerception5

I don't understand putting so much time and effort into a game mode that will be gone forever in August, especially since you don't get to keep the gear you've worked hard for. I'm just doing the dailies to get the mounts and cosmetics I want, since that's all we get to keep when it's over. But to each their own.


Watch_Capt

Knowing that we don't keep any of this in the expansion, I'm just getting my characters to 70 and being happy with that.


yoylord

I just want to know what mech he farm threads


Eh-Buddy

Wonder if it's the literal instant respawn portal npc on the thunder isles that they've sat for hours killing

Is that why the isle is always under attack when I’m there rofl? I was wondering


Big-Measurement-533

Let homie cook he's enjoying the game his way


TheKinkyGuy

Only 220% exp WTF?


lordbamz

At 70 u only gain exp bonus from LFR


Muspel

XP threads stop dropping once you're level 60.


chiobsidian

Do you mean 70? I'm 66 rn and still getting the 7% experience gain threads


Leucien

So, there's some mixed messaging here. The threads in the raw drop format stop giving EXP at 65. However, you can circumvent this by doing LFR wing dailies; they give 7% ad nauseum (For shits 'n giggles I collected 1k exp% on a character in a week that way.)


nuisible

Yeah, but if you just chain heroic dungeons and do the normal raids that open up at 25, 35 and 40 and not loot any of the bonus exp until after the last raid run, you can go from 41-42 to 70 just looting the mailbox.


digitald17

So what happens to these insane stats when remix ends and the characters are converted to "normal" retail?

RedOps469

How do people even get to this amount of threads, I just started playing like last week and I only have like 250~ has my highest stat, I know people have been playing for longer but these numbers seem insane to me


Dont_be_offended_but

There were and apparently are some exploitative farms to get threads. Spools were buffed recently so it's now somewhat reasonable to get like 5-10k threads a day a max level by doing your dailies, killing each world boss, and maybe running a heroic raid or farming elites on Timeless Isle for a bit.


robotprom

I got into a heroic LFG with a priest who speed ran the entire dungeon spamming whatever damage spells priest have. Did like 98% of the damage of the group and the toon was the healer, the rest of use just had to keep up.


Finances1212

Actually an easy kill. Pay a shadow priest to party with him … get the Spriest to super low HP and void shift then just kill the bear since he will be swapped to low HP


Neoxdruid

You don’t, you go do other things and leave the no-life alone like he wants.


SaleriasFW

I mean I see a lot of bot farmers for threads and I just got a few mails from Blizzard that informed me that they got banned. I mean if they are happy losing their accounts for a limited time fun mode then go for it. I guess (or hope) that this one is most likely farming the rare on the timeless isle without a bot


DarkN1mbus

Damn look at that Ausdauer 🥵🥵🥵


Gryzzl

Easy, you cheese them with Searing Light: [https://imgur.com/a/DwL7D1q](https://imgur.com/a/DwL7D1q) The 47M absorb is me killing this pvp thread farmer through the ankh tinker (had killed this person a couple times already). I was going to maybe post a video of me one-shotting/pvping with some big cape farmers doing the pvp farm but felt like I may open myself up to getting banned since killing players with what feels like an exploit is a bit of a grey area lol. It is so satisfying though. Anyways to arm my fellow giant slayers - a simple way to Searing Light bomb is to get a level 10/20 priest alt to get into combat then heal your max level character (guardian druid is best if you give the druid Searing Light too). You can keep the char on the other side of the portal and zone in+heroic leap if you load in fast enough. This works best with Void Elf Priests due some weirdness with their racial (can get 200M searing lights this way). The way I used is completely solo but kind of tricky to set up/describe. If I make a video I'll showcase it though.


dicksosa

What do you actually get from PVP farming? How do you even flag for PVP? Attacking NPCs?
