It’s been pretty loaded lately I’m kinda low on tender kekdog

spring bough

#

how accurate are PVP dummies?

potent pivot
#

they're usually decent

#

but the one's in dorn are just fucky

mystic pasture
potent pivot
#

extra fucky

#

compared to normal

mystic pasture
#

was the juiciest envenom ever

potent pivot
#

they also don't have vers

spring bough
#

So has everyone already farmed out their plunder? Lol

mystic pasture
#

meh....10% less is still huge

potent pivot
#

it wouldn't be 10% less

mystic pasture
#

from vers? not many people run much more than 20%

potent pivot
#

i mean on the dorn dummies

mystic pasture
#

yeah

potent pivot
#

you won't hit anything close to 10% less than that

#

on a player

mystic pasture
#

the dummy in SW better?

potent pivot
#

i don't think so

mystic pasture
#

its tough to pull off on a player, they usually are dead before I get to do that

potent pivot
#

a lot of pvp tuning this expansion

#

just isn't dummy flagged or something

glass hazel
potent pivot
#

the max envenom you're gonna hit on a player with all your stars aligned is in the 3m range

glass hazel
#

more like 2-2.5 without on use trinket

#

on average 🙂 never seen 3m yet haha

mystic pasture
#

oh yeah! the on use trinket!

#

that was DfA too

glass hazel
#

lol 3 games around zero plunder just get killed by 2 or more directly ;x

#

hah

hardy tinsel
#

Anyone got tips for plunderstorm?

#

Which skill is best?

potent pivot
#

sinnen brought up a couple that he said seemed strong in that msg^

#

i think they tuned a lot of them

#

so they aren't the same as last time

hardy tinsel
severe helm
#

whats good depends on duo vs solo

#

for solo I dont htink theres any better setup than slicing winds, axe/fish, quaking leap, and bulwark

#

for duo its more mixed cuz you can synergize with your team

#

the new celestial ability is super strong

#

axe/fish are still very strong

#

slicing winds, holy bulwark

#

defensive stuff is prefernce but ideally you want at least one mobility

hardy tinsel
hardy tinsel
#

I thought it was bad judging by its look, imma try them, ty

severe helm
#

It does a loooot of damage and if you land a second hit while they're still poisoned it hits SUPER hard

jaunty osprey
#

@potent pivot

#

had to take it back

#

1-4 again

potent pivot
#

Keep going LETSGOO

glass hazel

languid ravine
#

my plunderstorm preview window is TIIIIIINY i cant see shit kekdog

languid ravine
#

the new sky laser ability is BS way OP

languid ravine
#

like why does it do 40 damage on 8 sec CD with 30000 range and a built in backstep

#

and it basically hitscans at medium range lmao

indigo hill
#

Just get coins. Buy stuff and come back to wow.

languid ravine
#

just saying get the sky laser if you can it wins hard

outer sky
#

WTF lobby is this

jaunty osprey
#

There’s 2650 lobbies this early? 😮

outer sky
#

Coulda been worse

#

Def won't queue for a bit

#

i dont want double mage hpal lobbies

jaunty osprey
#

surprised dinoe is queuing so early

#

A friend of mine I met doing M+ dungeons last xpac wants to PvP with me but he plays ret pally and has almost no pvp experience.

languid ravine
#

I ve become too good at plunder

#

already got all my rewards lol

#

5ish hours

spring bough
#

I just did one game. Didn’t even make it to sub 10 players alive. And got 1600 plunder off the game

#

Think I was around the 20th or so still alive lol

severe helm
#

They upped it a LOOOT

gritty peak
#

is 1600 plunder a lot?

spring bough
spring bough
gritty peak
#

i like the appearances, but the game mode is not for me

#

sounds like you can farm stuff pretty easily

potent pivot
#

new set is like 4500 i think

#

250 a piece up to 1k a piece

spring bough
#

Yeah I got the entire new set last night. Got the old set today. Got the weps last night / today. Now it’s onto tabard and then mounts

#

Do I just go Polly Roger or do I go for hooktalon too

languid ravine
spring bough
#

celestial barrage?

languid ravine
#

yes that one

spring bough
#

yeah its OP

languid ravine
#

super fair

spring bough
#

that and the fire stuff

#

and the one that changes abilities too

#

fire whirl is also nuts

languid ravine
#

old skills have like 12 attribute points they can allocate in cooldown/range/dps etc

#

celestial barrage has 30

#

all stats maxed out

spring bough
#

down to 14 left with 2k plunder

#

from one game lol

#

i have a stun and celestial barrage OP

#

yup won my first plunder game. 4164 plunder from it

#

celestial barrage >>>>

languid ravine
#

only thing thats close to it is Boat

#

does 50 damage when you throw it lol

spring bough
#

these people tried running when the celestial barrage charges but it is like 100 yards so there is nowhere to go

is rogue better than DH

teleports behind you Sub Rogue is the most chuuni purple jutsu cringe fest (nothing personal kid)

starts throwing shurikens for 0,05% of your health bar

#

pew pew

potent pivot
#

some of these plunderstorm abilities are definitely broken compared to others KEKL

#

like all of the skill shots, the fire tornado thing, and the fish slaps

is sub bad for arena rn?

potent pivot
#

you can do pretty well if it's the spec you prefer/are better at playing

safe pelican
#

Bro either A. Hates us or
B. Hates us, but also has no pull to do anything about the repeat shafting we receive either way

potent pivot
#

it's a pve focused change i guess

#

as far as i know basically all the pve'rs disliked the charge

hazy monolith
hazy monolith
potent pivot
#

but what we don't realize is

#

that requires more work KEK

hazy monolith
#

Sp, ele got it

#

I want it too

potent pivot
#

We have to share our attention with DH kekw3

#

We got the attention in DF, right now it’s their turn

hazy monolith
#

well DH was great in DF

potent pivot
#

I know a lot of DHs that hated it

hazy monolith
#

sure I mean

#

it was very bugged

#

but strong

#

now it's still kinda bugged but

#

weak

potent pivot
#

Weak?

#

Hasn’t it been quite good in raid

hazy monolith
#

yeah but I talk pvp

potent pivot
#

But either way

#

I don’t think the design dev has much to do with strength of a spec

#

And I kinda doubt they have anything to do with pvp but

#

Making the specs fun and work properly

hazy monolith
#

k more context, with weakness I mean overall perf not just damage

potent pivot
#

Like the DHs I saw complain weren’t complaining about strength in DF, more so just the design

hazy monolith
#

DHs defensives are kinda outdated and roots are a huge problem

potent pivot
#

Ye I’m not trying to say they aren’t weak in pvp or anything

#

That’s prolly my least played melee other than monk

hazy monolith
#

ye it boils down to damage delivery and cc avoidance problems... I'm pretty invested since beta and wrote long ass feedback posts

#

also aldrachi reaver is, yeah, nobody plays it

#

a lot of problems

#

fel-scarred is strong but kinda lame imho

#

whatever 😄

potent pivot
#

Basically what I’m saying is that they care a lot more about pve when they make changes

hazy monolith
#

TRUE

#

always the case

potent pivot
#

But it’s also our turn to get ignored

#

While DH gets some changes

#

At least that’s how it feels so far

hazy monolith
#

DH didnt get changes to the core havoc talents for over a year

potent pivot
#

The only good change that rogue has gotten in TWW is supercharger I think

#

As far as pvp is concerned

#

Literally every other change has taken away from the class in some way

#

Feels like they’re beating a dead horse at this point

potent pivot
#

And that’s kinda fucked imo

hazy monolith
#

look at hunter changes in comparison

potent pivot
#

And paladin

hazy monolith
#

yeah

#

but ngl Im thinking a lot about the state of rogue, too

potent pivot
#

Like rogue is still decent in pvp so far regardless

hazy monolith
#

esp since sub got duel stripped and gets... nothing? lol

potent pivot
#

But everything from the hero trees down to the pvp talents etc has been terrible

#

And apparently we’re supposed to be stuck with these hero trees forever

hazy monolith
#

yeah yeah

#

exactly the same feeling as DH

#

one hero tree is completely dead the other one is PVE

#

I hate demonsurges

potent pivot
#

It genuinely feels like other classes have at least 1 person giving all their time to them

#

While lesser played classes get half a person’s time

#

But idk how popular DH is in pve

hazy monolith
#

you explode on certain abilities and deal aoe dmg to nearby enemies

#

great when being kited and rooted

potent pivot
#

idk if there's a way to separate this by class instead of spec on wcl

#

but it's kinda insane to look at

hazy monolith
#

lol

potent pivot
#

look at outlaw/sub

#

and look at ret

hazy monolith
#

yeah

#

xD

potent pivot
hazy monolith
#

thought about pushing keystone master before ssn ends

#

wanted to try outlaw

#

guess im not

potent pivot
#

legit least played class in the game

hazy monolith
#

ret nearly double the parses of the second

#

is wild

grave basin
#

Recently tried playing my DH and I really hate fel scarred

#

@hazy monolith

#

Having 50% if your damage breakdown be eye beam and demonsurge is lame AF

grave basin
# potent pivot

Why play piano outlaw when you can smash 3 buttons on Ret and do just as well in pve

#

Juice isnt worth the squeeze

waxen meteor
#

building around eye beam is honestly better (at least to me) than last few seasons, building your dmg on un-necessary movements

#

like you literally use mobility skills around the target for no reason

#

i think DH this season, problem is you don't feel enough impact

outer sky
#

Anyone here free to do a vod review for me?

#

This is actually so depressing

#

max rating 2449

#

2172cr

#

Rip me getting glad

fiery hinge
#

wtf

outer sky
fiery hinge
#

hmm, alt f4 angle

outer sky
#

ikr

#

I have another rogue at 2270

#

but he doesnt have the 14 glad wins

#

so I'm stuck trying to push on this one

#

I thought maybe I'd tank to like 2350 or something on a bad night

#

but not this shit

fiery hinge
#

i mean nothing to lose now

#

que it up

outer sky
#

I could tank even more

fiery hinge
#

Who do you que with

#

Find a team bro

#

que fotm shit

outer sky
#

I had a team

#

we went from 2250-2450 in 2 days

#

then tanked 150 rating and everyone quit

#

and now Ive just been tanking more and more

fiery hinge
#

What were you queing

outer sky
#

assa/affi/disc

#

i've never had luck with that comp

#

until I queued with these guys

fiery hinge
#

disc with affy sounds miserable

outer sky
#

but I think it was just a fluke

fiery hinge
#

I mean que it up

outer sky
#

healers can pve heal the damage

fiery hinge
#

If you rlly want glad

#

Then push for it

outer sky
#

easily

outer sky
fiery hinge
#

well you cant expect any other answer

#

that or go next season

#

Mount is meh to me and id review your games but i barely pvp

#

Id ask someone like @jaunty osprey

#

My opinion is

#

Press garrote harder

#

GG

fiery hinge
#

LOL, idk who else is a decent rogue

jaunty osprey
#

@potent pivot

#

enhance assa with bigdam

#

LMAO

jaunty osprey
#

ok swapped rogues and still havent lost yet

#

this comp is insane

#

15-0

outer sky
#

These have been my last few games

#

I tanked from 2450 to 2100

#

2145*

jaunty osprey
#

fffffff

#

how many glad wins

outer sky
jaunty osprey
#

okay there's still time

outer sky
#

yeah realistically a good session can be well over 100 points

#

its just discouraging

#

there just such stupid losses

#

like the people I'm playing with dont know what theyre doing

#

thats not to say im playing perfectly

#

of course not

#

but you should see these guys

#

lost this one somehow

#

4+ minute game

#

like my teammates just do no damage

#

when I play assa/affi my warlock literally does nothing

#

they do like half my damage

#

almost every game

#

heres one we lost

#

like come the fuck on

#

warlock

#

press your buttons

#

they have caut and I'm doing almost twice his damage

#

pally isnt healing

#

literally less than half the other team's healer's healing

#

like this is the shit i'm dealing with

#

like if that warlock did as much damage as me and our pally did at least half the monk's healing we'd have won that game easy

#

like just press your buttons

#

And no it wasn't pet pad

fiery hinge
outer sky
fiery hinge
#

Not why i’m asking

#

You wanted someone to review your shit

#

To see what you’re doing wrong

fiery hinge
outer sky
hazy monolith
fiery hinge
hazy monolith
#

Also in competitive play you wouldn’t really sacrifice movement for dmg if you know you need it

#

Also if you know how to play against FS (which isn’t really that big of a deal) then you just shut down eye beam and kite the rest

#

Aldrachi reaver is way cooler but needs redesign

#

Not switch friendly which sucks

#

And dmg is just lower, FS got buffed over and over again

#

Again because PvE

outer sky
# fiery hinge I will watch your games back if you have a vod

i dont really think the vod review is necessary now that I think about it. The problem is my other dps cant do damage and my healer can't heal. I keep looking for some deeper reason because it's so hard for me to believe that people can actually be that bad at the game and then I remember average rating is like 1600.

fiery hinge
#

Go vod review

#

It’s just a way to make yourself lose bad habits

outer sky
#

idk thats just fucking ridiculous man

#

like if people just dont play their classes correctly

#

it wont matter

broken otter
#

Why do Deathstalker Sin rogues use the set chestpiece instead of the hands? The set is vers/crit and the hands are mastery/vers

I'm mistaken

I was hovering over the legs thinking they were the hands stat XD

fiery hinge
#

You’re not getting my point still…

outer sky
#

And this is today

fiery hinge
#

bro go see what you did wrong LMAO

outer sky
#

I know what I did wrong

#

I queued with these guys

fiery hinge
#

Jesus

#

You’re gonna give me aids

outer sky
#

I know it sounds nice to always blame yourself

#

but sometimes

#

people just suck

#

its okay to acknowledge it

fiery hinge
#

You came here all sad and down about losing rating but not you’re blaming those people.

#

What if they’re blaming you, and won’t acknowledge or go see what you did wrong

outer sky
#

2450 to 2115 is pretty tragic

#

I'm sure there are things I could have done better. My point is there's nothing I could have done better that would have turned most of those losses into wins because the people I'm playing with can't do their basic rotations properly

#

it's miniscule by comparison

#

if your teammate cant do damage and your healer cant heal

#

what difference does it make

fiery hinge
#

Maybe they can’t do damage and can’t heal because you couldn’t peel and theyre being trained etc

#

You are a rogue acting like a ret pally

#

zug zug why my team suck zug zug

jaunty osprey
#

firstly, assa ele rdruid

#

is an awful comp

outer sky
jaunty osprey
#

well

#

tilt queuing wont get you out of the rut

#

just play to your strengths, there are no arena charters/teams, if you feel like things arent going our way, just call the session and queue when you feel more confident in your partners

#

especially if you're going to say that they're not healing or doing damage

#

just wait till you find better people

outer sky
fiery hinge
#

👺

#

I give up, all yours ivan

jaunty osprey
#

nop, im too busy reviewing my vods

#

of my meme enhancement assa hpal to 2.8k

fiery hinge
#

you’re being hardheaded zicore

#

just review your vod, stop caring about damage meters

#

turn details off

outer sky
# fiery hinge you’re being hardheaded zicore

You're just seeing this in isolation which is why you feel the way you do about it. I spent 3 xpacs exlusively blaming myself for not getting rating. I've gotten way better. But at some point its worth it to point out and acknowledge that the people youre playing with are just bad

#

there are multi r1 players who struggle to get glad wins in lfg

#

it's okay

fiery hinge
#

Yeah but if it’s your literal first time hitting glad range then i’d focus on what you can do better

fiery hinge
#

Yeah bro 2.2 rn is like 1800 players spam queing

I have a question related to how [Darkest Night] is currently playing out right now with rogue.

So when I start off, I apply 3 stacks of[Deathstalker's Mark], then I will consume it each time I use 5+ combo points. After each consuming of a mark, I can Fan for extra damage and combo point. Only once I consume all [Deathstalker's mark] I will get [Darkest Night].

My question is, since I'm technically staying in stealth for 6 second after breaking stealth, I'm constantly reapplying [Deathstalker's Mark] to 3 stacks again. I'm guessing the best thing to do would be to let myself fall out of stealth attacks and consume 3 stacks. Thereby getting[Darkest Night] to proc, and once I'm done that I will vanish to again apply 3 stacks again and start the cycle again?

Game still sucks btw

One of them even soloed a healer

He actually even told me that before the gate opened, he was like hey I might just swap on healer when you kidney them, ‘I have a secret tech to solo healer’ and I can still go back to killing target like normal

#

Never played tank in like 20 years of wow life, maybe I should try it this year!

same i go for yellow usually

mine on average like 1.5k almost always top10

probably because i dont kill a lot of ppl maybe thats why

yours like 10 :x

no info yet how to get plunderlord title in s2?

Gotta run around hit more gold that’s on the ground and smoke more mobs lol

#

Can easily clear 4K plus on a win

glass hazel
#

haha i killed a lot of mobs i dunno why

#

was not able to get gold from players in last circle maybe thats why

#

since i just kite them with fox+vanish and hit with ice skill ;x

Try killing the big mobs

#

The elite ones give tons of plunder

Hey what’s the bug with cheat death? A friend was asking.

jaunty osprey
#

Multiple spells or lines of damage hitting you at once or projectile abilities can just insta kill you as it procs

severe helm
#

since damage reductions/ability damage are calculated on spell completion generally

#

so if a warlock is slinging out chaos bolts and his teammate procs your cheat death, anything already in the air will still hit for full damage and youll just die

molten hedge
#

Oh that’s a bug?

severe helm
#

not necessarily a "bug" per se but it effectively means cheat death is usually useless vs specs with slow projectiles

molten hedge
#

I thought that’s how it worked

severe helm
#

Its a bug in that the ability does not work as described

molten hedge
#

Has it always been that way

severe helm
#

unless you know the mechanics of how blizz's abilities work

#

not sure if its always been that way or not tbh

#

cheat death used to be rather reliable

#

I do remember when cheat death originally came out it was different

#

this was the TBC cheat death

#

this one worked very reliably when it did "proc"

#

cuz it works like cauterize

#

where it sets your hp back to 10%

#

thats why cauterize always works on mages

#

regardless of chaos bolts/etc

#

unless you can kill faster than the caut healing ofc

#

but cheat death in its current state is just pressing a defensive for you so it works like any other damage mitigation

#

if you Pain Sup while a bunch of chaos bolts are in the air they hit you for full damage still

jaunty osprey
#

Well the cheat “bug” doesn’t need projectiles at all

#

It’s just multiple instances of damage hitting you at the same time

fiery hinge
#

id let them take out cheat death for maneuv back

#

old version of it

Today I had a shuffle match and I got disarmed by one guy the second I opened on the other and I was just thinking like "man, you are so good at the game. who taught you to play this well. disarm me as soon as I come out of stealth. Such a high skill play to counter me"

#

it's really a stupid design

#

subterfuge should be a cooldown

#

right now shit's way too telegraphed

#

"he got a re. root totem him so it doesnt even matter"

#

"hey I totally countered the rogue by putting a 30s long purge the wicked DoT on him. Look at me I'm good at the game"

#

Dumb design by blizzard imo

outer sky
#

I actually think shadow dance should grant immunity to disarm effects since disarming shadow dance is probably the single most inpactful disarm you can do

#

You shouldn't be able to negate a entire spec's existence because you took a 45s CD pvp talent

#

Honestly disarm as a CC should probably go away in general

tender ember
#

this is skill issue

#

thats why u check omnibar with disarms cd and prio stuning classes like war/hunter etc. as your 1st global before doing ur main thing

outer sky
#

Even if it's something like warrior/ele, whichever one you stun first the other will either disarm or lasso you

indigo hill
#

I see people running alacrity and strat instead of leech and vigor on outlaw but to me it feels I'm allot more energy starved. This something others experience as well?

potent pivot
#

deeper strat is pretty much a lock-in

potent pivot
#

though you can use the supercharger combo points to consume it while not at max cp, you really wouldn't want to because you want the envenom to hit as much as possible

terse thicket
#

Am I by any chance playing the wrong spec? I just remember Assassin on Legion, It was awesome to play, I had a lot of fun, but now I just don't do any damage... Maybe it could be that I came back to WoW like, 2 weeks ago and I undergeared (full honor)
What's the role of an assassin rogue on PvP? Spread bleeding and shit? CC on multiple targets?
Should I change to Subtlety?

potent pivot
#

being undergeared isn't going to help, but you should still do somewhat okay dmg in honor gear

#

but yeah, spread bleeds, CC people, all that good stuff mhmm

#

the spec is a decent bit different than it was in legion

terse thicket
#

I'm always at the bottom, It could be the way I'm playing, random BGs, I won't always have a healer, I mean, I'm by myself, right? I get focused A LOT, being dead all the time helps to stay at the bottom...

potent pivot
#

I mean in BGs Details is useless really

terse thicket
#

I'm referring to Blizzards statistics at the end..

potent pivot
#

Ah

#

Well yeah dying a lot isn’t going to help that’s for sure

terse thicket
#

I'm always opening with cheap shot, garrote, rupture, build combo points, kidney shot, combo points, envenom, popping CDs to stay alive

potent pivot
#

Gotta be aware of where your healers are, don’t over extend if you don’t have tools to get out of a bad situation

terse thicket
#

I think I'm gonna give sub a shot to see how it goes, maybe I'll enjoy it more

indigo hill
potent pivot
#

but if you were going to swap, that's what you'd swap

indigo hill
#

Not a fan of charger and without vigor the spec feels to slow for me. Thanks, mate. 👍

tender ember
# outer sky Yeah let me just stun the boomie who's in stealth so he can't disarm me what a g...

it is really comp dependant what you do, also remember u dont play alone. The only boomy setup i face is with outlaw rogue- i mostly just open with peels on rogue WITH TRYING TO LINE BOOMY when my healer is cc'ed, if u get disarmed it doesnt matter cos boomy still needs to pre dot ppl before incarn and when he presses it u can silence him with full dr big garote into stuns ye? There are situation when u need to just tank disarm w/o being dispelled but therefore u gotta expect it and do the most before u get it

#

vs ele war, u can sap ele open war so your lock can cast then go on ele preferably with silences when he presses incarn. W/o sap on ele, your lock should just silence lasso and thats all, i literally got 0 issue vs ele war except war gets me out of stealth and disarm into bolt- but this is skill issue

If he use burst

You can outplay him ez

Still depends what he do

hollow niche
#

Why do people have multiple characters of the same class but different spec

potent pivot
#

1 reason is because conquest is capped at the beginning of the season

#

so you can use multiple characters and gear them differently

#

another reason for multiple characters is queue times get high at higher rating, so some people will restart on a fresh character

#

or they juggle characters if they're trying to push r1

hollow niche
#

Ah okay

#

So u can't gear even 2 spec on 1 character?

potent pivot
hollow niche
#

Oh duh sorry I just returned

potent pivot
#

but you kinda want different gear set for certain specs

#

sub and assa use basically the same gear

#

but outlaw uses different stats

hollow niche
#

Right and I'm usually torn between sub and outlaw lmao

potent pivot
#

!stats

lethal roostBOT
#

These are the recommended stat priorities for each spec in PvP. Please keep in mind that having suboptimal stats on some pieces such as tier set pieces is not the end of the world.

Subtlety: Vers>Mastery>Crit>Haste
Assassination: Vers>Mastery>Crit=/=Haste
Outlaw: Vers>Haste=/=Crit>Mastery
You likely want to stack at least 20% Haste on Outlaw for an extra GCD during ADR/Crackshot windows. Take 'em by Surprise gives you 10% during CS windows, so you only need 10-15% from gear.

whats like the second best embellishment if I dont want to buy Gems for Focusing Lens?

wraith tangle
#

Hi guys, why so many people prefer sbs over KB and Master Assassin? SBS dmg seems negligable and KB is absolutely fcking bursty if you manage to buff it. Am I missing something?

potent pivot
#

running either combination is fine

#

kingsbane has just been nerfed multiple times so it doesn't do as much as it used to, but it's still a solid choice

wraith tangle
#

Got it, thx. I still manage to do 2m - 3m dmg with KB, which seems brutal for 14s dot.

jaunty osprey

Duskthread uptime too low

potent pivot
#

ascension uptime is ass

potent pivot
jaunty osprey
#

Doesnt reset stacks

#

you just don’t gain stacks

#

just get in combat again before the buff fall offs in 15s

#

Being above 80% as a rogue is rare and is way lower uptime

#

especially with how much cleave/aoe there is in the game right now

potent pivot
#

it's usually higher uptime than you'd expect

#

a lot of people still run it for sub for example

ahh hmm

Kotmogu is just a healer check 99% of the games

Yeah, with rogue I don't mind deepwind

but I'm not playing my rogue again this season in blitz. Just doing side quests now collecting elite sets for alts

hidden dome

Man I love playing on my alt only for a heal to instant quit 30 seconds in the game

#

that should just give you a month ban instantly

at least for that char

People saying mean words? Yep thats a ban.
People actually griefing the game for 7 others? 30 Minute Queue Ban and -200 rating

Wow the leaver dude has a negative winrate on every heal in every bracket.

Why is that guy not perma banned already?

No blizz is too busy perma banning guys typing "idiot".

That guy is playing for at least 13 seasons

100% just griefing

potent pivot

bad healers at low rating tend to go 0-6 a lot

hidden dome
#

Sure, but given he just left my blitz game 1 minute in and he has negative winrate on all his chars. Often less than 30% in blitz

I would just think he quits a lot

He left and logged out so fast, couldn't even report him

I’m feeling sub or assa shuffles this weekend though kinda tired or pirate blitz lowkey, only other class i actually have FUN playing is hunter cause im booty at mage

#

Warrior made me feel like i was losing brain cells

& I Can’t play healer classes cause i ain’t no 🐱😂 , shadow priest i think or lock would be the next fun dps class

#

TLDR: Rogue is the only option.

hidden dome
#

can't motivate myself to play any pvp if there is no reward to be had. And playing from 0 to 2.4 again on a different spec seems like a waste of time

Besides I'm an outlaw main by heart

I couldn't play some dagger rogue

#

I've been playing combat since BC

safe pelican

Combat is cool i talked a mountain of shit about it before i rolled but it’s fun but the warning about carpel tunnel was legit had my hand sore af the other weekend after pushing was contemplating switching specs 🤣

Anyone know what the plunderstorm rewards are or if they are worth the time , any cool shit like a rare mount or badass title ? Never played it before

I think you click plunderstorm->plunderstore iirc

the average forum thread is someone not particularly great at the game, whinging about whatever they just lost to

Sounds like it. Outlaw is good but imo far from the OP spec they describe it as. Sounds more like a situation where someone doesnt know how to counter a certain spec.
