A lonely road
Lmaoooo i need this gif
Is this confirmed 🤔Season 3 ending dec.2 ??
Then two weeks of downtime or 1 I can’t remember
That's MoP classic compadre
Roughly 8-10 weeks left in retail and maybe more because there's some rumors of Midnight delays
human alliance ud horde
Rogue* fixed it for u
Can’t wait to CC every two minutes in PvP
why are you CCing every 2 minutes?
It’s an exaggeration brother lol
Can't be too careful with people in wow discords
Full kidney every 30 ez
Kopy that’s what i was thinking 🔒
Full Kidney off CD regardless of DRs is the only way
i still can't get over 30 sec kidney cd
Makes it easier for an idiot like me
Also true
After them reducing cheap shot, they should have at least give us the one second back on kidney
Just excited for new
I miss it already
Glad it's gone
If it were a physical object I'd chuck it in a river
Part of why it sucks to play rn
blade rush is a cool looking spell
Tf is it
UHUH
Tf is thattttt
Wait what are they doing to cheap shot ?
1 charge
12 second cd
So uh
Have fun with it being one use per vanish unless ur sub
Sap breaks stealth

UHUH
In midnight? There's no way that's not a bug
epic tank sesh after internet crash and a cuple 1-5s
but i did it
2600 -> 2350, and back up
lol
5th legend
You are just insane.
I'm sending my last few games outlaw since I picked up engine finish my Assa gearing
Pray to God Assa is as stupid proof as you all make it sound
Idk if it’s stupid proof, it just has a very obvious win condition
Outlaw not as obvious
That's because outlaw doing damage is a literal coin flip and assassination is guaranteed
And kingsbane just slaps
actually right now both of their damage profiles are coin flips 🙂
Any tips on what I should use my level 80 boost on? I bought Midnight last week and still haven't used it
i dont know
For assass are you all running deadly poison instead of wound poison when running the shiv talent that applies healing reduction? It doesn't look like the healing reduction stacks so not clear to me if it's worth it to keep up the wound poison reduction between shiv's vs the extra dmg from deadly poison in the burst window
run wound basically always, but ye they don't stack
its extra insurance for burst
esp bc ur using shiv during kb window to buff its damage more
Thanks
Rogue, monk, evoker, shaman, hunter, pally
rogue x 5
x3 but ngl im considering using this boost on a 4th rogue
I member when they did stack
as sub rogue
should i macro thistle tea with small burst (dance + sod) or with big burst?
you can macro tea with dance and generally be ok
may waste some if you dance for CC but it is what it is if you're going to use macros anyway
same lmao i have 4
i like warr, just nice to turn ur brain off and still do dmg
what specc would you guys recommend for 2's with a healer?
What class are you playing?
rogue + any healer
do they perform similar?
Can't tell, haven't touched outlaw since shadowlands
Just seeing the ladder there are outlaw rogues between all the assa, but mainly it's assa
alright, just plan on going for 2.1 for the mogs so guess assa will be fine
thanks, appreciate it
You're welcome. Do tell how it goes, cause I bet it's enjoyable
Less stops than 3s etc
guess the hardest part will be finding someone who wants to play with someone that hasn't played since df s1
lol
biggust kekus
you got Cabal'd
hows the outlaw life
brother the week I had was so absolutely terrible I have rarely played in 3 weeks.
terrible irl or in game
I finally sent my first game after hitting like 2100 and ate a 0-6 to a ret paladin who didnt know how to use half his defensives, like actually didnt use them the entire lobby
IRL
I finally have run it back to 2100 but im picking up assa to play
fuck it
it is so stupid because my gear is nowhere even near correct yet but im getting close
but its just like "oh that person is 50% hp they are just dead"
and then theya re
i feel the same as ww
can just log like unholy dk and play worse and get better results
the only issue im having
is a lot of assa guide stuff is outdated
so im piecing together some stuff
like I dont know our current best combo, I think I got it
for 1 shots
im just not good at assa
bruh
what
sorry guys, i don't want to aids this place anymore so i'm leaving, gl everyone with your goasl and have a good holiday.
bro ur good
i know its too much tinfoil hat, but i swear sometimes it feels like im facing counters on every char queue shuffle with
ive been playing with destiny defined and feels better than inevitable end for shuffle at least
cause I can get easy kills when someone's at or below 50% and just cold blood kingsbane into next round
Don’t let shuff get to you bro
it just gaem
dont take it too hard
apparantly one of my UH dk talents is bugged
and there's a "new" build
petkick linked it to me and i went from 2.1 to 2.2 insta

ima be real my g i have no idea what those talents do
i think inevitable end is the the reverse funnel one
envenom does more dam if it hits no one else
destiny defined i have no idea
one makes your cold blood affect two envenoms, the other spends cold blood for kingsbane
just tried it on dummies and ngl i like destiny defined more as well
Tbh its not the
Guarantee crit if envenom that’s good it’s the fact it guarantees 2 x edge case flips
Would yall reccomend assassination or sub for pairing with ret in 2s. I main sub in pve.
Either is fine assa is a big more cc via garrote silence but both would be fine
think they're gonna put in some pvp tuning b4 expac?
There will definitely be be more base tuning before launch but yeah I’d imagine so
it'ss about time i feel like
Then we’ll also prolly get tuning a couple times weeks in
have we ever got tuning during turbulent timeways
i'm not ssure
but i really want some b4 season ends. rmp outlaw/fire is just completely sweat to play atm, would be nice to have some tuning to hunters
Oh you meant live tuning, I thought you meant tuning on beta mb
Dunno if we’ll see anymore live tuning before launch ngl 
idt we see tuning until midnight goes live RIP
Hope not otherwise ill say goodbye to glad title again
Holy hell some of these other class discords PvP channels are legit whiners
Which ones
rogue discord is goated
is there a world this is good in SSM at lava only ?
since everyone will be stacked
tryna cook a tf build
Yeah they are phoning it in at this point
Midnight too soon to care about live pvp tuning
Sorry lads, it’s 8m instant aimed shots until February
Ofc, just saying that I had better time sniping cheeky kills without any setup with cold blood kingsbane crit
lol man i was busy at work just seeing this , what the fuck ??
Stunbots forced to play sub now , so what about sub , no cd like before ?
12 second cd is absolutely diabolical activity
Just remove the button lmao wth
RIP
had that in every expac since legion
after pushing to 2008 i met 2 mm hunter and ele shamy and i lost every game because they where hiting 7 milion everytime. im giving up. hate this game
everyone has a bad lobby buddy
the amount of fotm hunters calling you bad when they just piss random binding shot beofr eyour goes is so crazy at lower mmr lol
u def wanna use kidney on a dps, and evasion or disarm the trueshot
Everygame 2 mm on me than mm + ele on me with enormous damage. I was disappearing
Tbf that lobby sounds like pain. You'll get blasted regardless of who you cc
jo pvp cracks one question how do i farm mark of honor fast
Don't give up mate. I was 15-30 rating (1 lobby) away from 2.4 4 times and dropped to 2.1 cause i raged after losing the promotion lobbies cause of people trolling or caster/ret teams
Just a bad session, try later or tomorrow again
daily win in all the regular game modes and rated game modes
or just spam shuff
Play round pillars if u don't have dmg, let your teammates play 2v3 until you get restealths or wait for kingsbane
What Pk said + spamming shuffles as healer
Tried, kind of, (you do it automatically, trying to run out and kite from that damage) but they still rolled over me with Insta shots. Trapping and coming from both sides) Thanks, my friend, for the encouragement.
dh healer :d
but u need to winh ?
i mean why do glad weapons cost 80 marks
Yea need a win
Can’t answer that idk
well there are comps that are impossible to win, but most are not like that. Step healer and get out of line of fire
cause its an arsenal containing all types of weapons. I havent done the math if buying everything 1 by 1 is cheaper or not (would guess not)
u cant buy anything without purchasing the arsenal
oh, I see
i remember there was an option previously, but maybe they removed the single weapons when they added the arsenals
i need dragonflight stuff
Yea I was gonna say in shuffle I just play for bomb and one shotting by myself half the time
just gotta play more
i had like a 1000 marks at one point, i know people probably have ungodly amounts just from playing so much over the years
i played some shuffle in df cause i didnt have a guild to raid with, and got a lot of elite sets + was using my resto druid to farm conquest for alts and i had 2k marks in less than a season i think
but i hate pvp XD
oh, thats why 80 marks is a lot for you
yes
another way is the arathi comp stomp brawl
that you fight the computer and win under 5 minutes
its a great way to get exalted with the league of arathor/defilers and get the juicy tabard
but i need to wait for it to be active right
yes
it will become permanent mode in midnight, but im not sure what the rewards will be
Imagine if they nerf fire mage / marks hunter and kingsbane on Monday night
dont care about the first two, but assa will be unplayable
so basicall there is no easy f ast way to get zo 80 marks
i miss pvp wq from legion :/
Nope not really, gotta PvP
legion pvp wq were great for that
Idk I enjoy playing the game lol
You can collect the BFA shadow lands and DF war caches for conquest and honor. Not really any real competition in old content war mode
Yeah I don’t think any of those zones have a timer add on
That sounds like it would take years
anyway i cant just farm for an hour or so
I usually do crates till 2500 for weap then fill rest of slots with honor
Otherwise it’s 3 1/2 hours to fully cap
80 marks in 1 hour ?
I will only do that first season when you can buy ah gear. Not gonna sit and get farmed for hours till I have enough to only have honor
Oh marks
nope, but bunch of them
i have like 1k of them by just playing normally
and just gotta spend them for 50g recipes xd
oh god, please not the fornite boxes
you can use the warcrate addon for tww in the old zones
normal pvp but i dont do pvp
ye but pvp players just run old pve content to get their transmog
is that fairness ?
well, u don't have legacy pvp because there is no brand new battlegrounds per season
and we don't decide that we are not blizzard devs xdd
never said ur responsible but its unfair anyway
old customs, when i used to receive clients they were like about to gunpoint at me because prices lol
like the one attending public is the one placing the prices lol

Love brewmaster monk in SS 😒
If someone has cursed me and that’s why I’m getting these combos in solo shuffle, please tell me, I’m ready to pay the price in natura.
love me a random dungeon finder. not one word typed by anyone. tank pulled everything. on 3rd boss and group randomly boots me.... wish this game told u why u got vote booted =/
no i was doing the most damage too....
did you say anything?
not one word... just a random heroic in remix tryna level up lol
strange
just tryna dps my lock heart out and got the boot for no reason lol
i mean i soulstoned myself tho is that like a no no? lol
any macro for tricks of the trade in shuffle? or what other pvp talents make sense in a caster lobby as sub rogue? the sprint one is nice but nobody play it on murlok
use framesort addon or something so you can make a macro that casts it on the other dps on your team
how would the macro look? i tried /target [@party1] or something like this as i saw on google and just switch the number as needed but it wasn't working
the addon will have special macros listed in it's description
ah ok nice. i'll try that. thanks
iirc there's like 2 different addons that can do it similarly, but framesort should be all you need iirc
then you just make healer always frame 1 or 3 for example, and the other dps always frame 2, etc
You want Dynamic Macros @true warren
It’s a smart addon that automatically uses it on your dps
this is like the 4th DK ive messaged who's said this
yeah i mean i dont blame him at all
anything with an MM hunter right now isn't even a comp
its just 2 guys supporting a 1 shot machine
Can my destro lock have a talent where I can proc instant, full damage chaos bolts that cost zero shards
Assa moonkin?
Omg, that’s awesome
trimaz x petkick WHEN
can anyone help me with framesort macro for tricks? i copied this from the addon to cast tricks automatically on the other DPS but it's a mousover even tho the mouseover macro looks different
#showtooltip Tricks of the Trade
#FrameSort Frame1
/cast [mod:ctrl,@none][mod:shift,@none][mod:alt,@Player][] Tricks of the Trade
should add that frame 1 is my healer but for the sake of testing in skirmish i used frame 1
those are the premade macros and supported variables
try the other addon too
dynamic macros addon
ok i'll try. i found framesort discord too right now will ask there
#FrameSort DPS1
/cast [@none][] Tricks of the Trade
the addon should update the cast @none every game due to the header
assa/dk pretty good tbh
but
not MM :(
addon author in their discord gave me this but haven't had the time to test it yet
you can do it like this:
#FrameSort OtherDps
/cast [@none,help] Tricks of the Trade
the other DPS part is nice since i won't have to adjust for 2v2 because in 3v3 healer is always frame 1
if the world of warcraft servers were shutting down where would you park your character and leave it forever?
Where would you park your character for its final resting place if this happened 😭
Moonglade
winterspring, dun morogh, or grizzly hills
OG orgrimmar ontop of the bank
Either grizzly hills at the start of the log riding quest, or Undercity near the cockroach vendor with a campfire and a fishing chair and the picnic basket so my char doesn't sit directly on the floor
Boralus Harbor
eversong woods or hillsbrad foothills
New pennants are cloaks??? Love the change
We already have a PvP cloak… just make the toy usable in arena god damn it
These are the new exclusive ones 😂
its ridiculous to get a thing from arena and not being able to use it there wtf
Is there a customer support phone # for Blizzard at all ?? Or do i have to wait for this slow ass GM ticket response to get back into my account
Put a billing ticket in. A real person will deal with that. Anything else some AI robot slop
Whats CB?
Cold blood
ty
i wanna uninstall after that ngl
I feel you 🙃
It’s 2025 we could at least outsource these calls to Bangladesh like Amazon this is bullshit
All cause i changed my phone number foolishness
Who knew changing my number would bar me from the great world of Azeroth
2FA is the devil , don’t let them fool you.
this and not a single dispell on roots, binding shot or trap 
whats funny about that is i have like 15 OW accts and even 6 different HWIDs ive never once been asked to verify the phone number
Even if you null the serials it doesnt ask 😭
what's that ret pally falling down stairs meme?
Thanks i needed to see that
the best trending in the thread
if u dc in ss, do you lose mmr
I don’t think much if any but you’ll be -150 CR
damn, hope i get the cr back
4m coin flip LOL
2v2 assa disc is so freee
Congratulations, you played yourself
It's so sad
It's so sad, even a Devil May Cry...
someone confirm/ jog my memory but wasn’t bfa like this. i didn’t play much pvp back then
but i mildly remember having little to no burst potential
Tuning is gonna happen when midnight releases on live
Games went on forever
BFA PvP wasn’t my fav
I played one season of pvp for bfa. Hit 1600 and left till SL season two 😂
Might be the same angle for yall
Idk I’ve been playing a lot of different specs this season and I just prefer outlaw. My beloved
What play S1 midnight then come back S2 the last titan? 😂
ye
you are cooking sir
bfa s4 was a fucking mess
Tbf
Looks like pvp in midnight is going away from cc chains and Burst into a
Let’s meet up and hit each other and see who dies first
the game really is turning dumber, does it?
first addons, then a lot of spell removal
Games gonna lose a lot of skill expression imo
Which spec bursts harder in current patch? Sin or Sub?
ret
I kinda like that tho
BRAWL TILL U DROP
And what’s outlaw best at ? Brawling
You can generally do fine as any spec
shuffle or blitz?
Ye but uh
Assa and sub lost their identity
Bgb sub shuffle assa
Yes but when wanting path of least resistance playing meta goes far
Good thing I’m an outlaw at heart
Where can I find the BiS gear? Someone sent me Whaxx as a Screenshot, but on this I cant see the stats on the crafted things
Take a look at Murlok to see what people are using
Spec?
Assa
https://murlok.io/character/eu/ravencrest/finnëas/pvp
Why is he playing 2-set?
Cause 4 set desyncs kings bane lining up with trinket cooldown
And you always wanna have the trinket up for kingsbane
Okay, so 2-set is the way?
bc fatebound 4 set is dooki
bc its nerfed to 1/3rd value in pvp so uh
its like 7 second cdr for ur 2 min cd
just better to have a better stat spread
Okay, thanks
the mog is crazy tuff
should give u the items u want
ignore the sim dps etc thats all pve bs but the gear list is correct
Yes
pvp stats juicin
title goes hard, love that one
Guys how hard is it to get elite set atm?
free
Of course my first game back is temple 😒
what? blizzard is very shameless spoiling rets rotten lol
is that shit annoying to do? it’s the delve boss right
I had a tough time for a bit but it’s been nerfed since
just made a aug quit
went 4-0
kekw
aug afk'd out on first round i was to play with him
though i prob would quit if i died to a death from above envenom XD
its kyveza solo
yeah its not bad tbh
i haven’t even done the story to unlock it
u know the cloak
from the story is
bis right?
<contract killer>
for rogue is just crisp
gonna have to figure out how to trim recordings bc
man
Kb into death from above on the evoker who just used hover to make distance so i cant envenom and the DFA kills him is just
Why is disc priest still a walking 3 man mission -_-
Is assa the only spec giving decent pressure to disc rn ?? I don’t see how sub or pirate gets its done these mfs just don’t die
No I mean that's the Templar ret coming and hitting one button
Got both my assas elite ln
holy fuck mm hunters
pulled the W
wasnt too bad. i have a third rog i just made thats 2300 mmr and 26-10 so maybe i get that one 2.4k and do legend wins or something idk haha
ah fuck em
@jolly sierra seeexoooo
SEXOOOOOOO
The urge to ball out and get the swift zulian tiger this weekend grows larger
Me everytime i see someone with the mount
@fathom crag
@pearl bane

My goat.
in a sub/disc/mage comp, is frost or fire better?
fire
What’s good pk
Had a fire mage/uhdk/arms lobby last night and I died first round with the mage on my team and he started laughing and talking shit immediately then proceeds to go 1-5
Cocky Mage moment lol
He got what he deserved, a bad lobby
Just kinda wild you can get 2300+ playing the way he did
Prepare to face Xal’atath, the Harbinger and the Void in World of Warcraft®: Midnight™ launching worldwide on March 2, 2026, at 3:00 pm PST. Players who have purchased any edition of the Midnight expansion can secure Housing Early Access starting December 2,
Yeah they won’t be ready
Yea i see 0 advantage to buying the beta here
They got me with TWW & the poors didn’t miss out on shit but early access to questing tbh
Unless you really want that mount which will be available some kind of other way after release
Prob trading post recolor a month after launch 
Tbh extra 3 days to level
Got 13 classes and more toons to level and early farm on mats goes hard
I mean u gotta get $50 version
$40 upgrade gives u
30 days game time ($15 value)
So the upgrade is only $25
$25 for all the mounts and the character boost and 3 day early play and beta is
Kinda worth tbh
Also get a free level 80 boost
I mentioned it
Yeah ima be real I only read the first line of that wall of text 
Valid
I mean yea the game time being squeezed in there makes it better , wish there was actually something exclusive to the early version everything that’s exclusive is still available in game, i need some sort of gate keeping for paying extra imo still gunna buy it tho just gotta vent first 🙂↕️🦦😂
Free 80 boost for yet another rogue , yes
Have u figured out that housing items cost actual $$ yet? 😂
Lmaoooo you’ve could’ve waited a little longer to drop this bomb on me i don’t even understand this housing update , smells like a cash grab from miles away what are we about to do have Azeroth club / house party xpac
There’s a whole new housing currency that costs dollars to buy it 😭
My house is gonna have one free chair in it and that’s it
Velf dh
“Real money” brother get it with gold
$20 wow token later 😂
No
Buy a wow token with gold
The token turns into $15 battle net credit
Use the credit to buy housing stuff
Fiancé bought midnight with gold
Lmaooooo it doesn’t make any sense why do we need houses , I’m definitely only gunna have a welcome mat. No furniture
$20 wow token for pvp needs , gear , crafting mats i refuse to give blizz money for a virtual loveseat this is madness
Just because you dont like it doesnt mean the playerbase doesnt
Midnight release march 2nd, long season ahead boys and girls
If you don’t care about housing why does it matter if it costs money to buy some accessories?
If you choose not to engage with it that’s fine but it’s a great addition for the game
Because realistically no one should be okay with paying money for it
The fact that people still give them money for things like that is insane
It’s the single most requested feature for the game since vanilla, they were always going to find a way to monetize it
I mean people complain if they gate vanity items behind cash and they complain even more if they gate character power items behind cash
So either blizz needs to stop gating anything behind cash to appease those people - and gain nothing in the process - or they can gate some things behind cash so people who want to pay for them are happy and blizz also makes extra money.. not rly a hard decision imo
And vanity items for $$ is the way better option
Fun fact
Housing was in the alpha for WoW
Yep lol
My issue with it is that there’s already a box and monthly price for the game
I think blizzard with wow will reach a point where they have to choose between continuing as a subscription model or switch over to battle passes
But this is an age old opinion about blizzard
I feel the same way, but this opinion isn't going to stop Father of Four who sees a $90 dinosaur and buys it without a second thought, because a $15 sub and the occasional cash shop item is still insanely cheap compared to say, golfing. As many complaints as I have about the ethics of cash shops in a sub game, $15 a month for 20 years is crazy value and I've never felt like I was behind anyone for not buying something.
Always a valid argument but as time goes on it needs to consider that the playerbase grows older with the game
Alot of people dont have the energy or time or both that they had when they were 17
To get things the in-game way
Thought we we’re battling for Azeroth cuz, didn’t know we needed bunk beds my bad bro
Yeah turns out, nothing in entertainment is "needed"
Noone "needs" to pay 230 dollars for a musical but they choose to
I didn't need a 5090 Suprim LC but... wait, nah I did need that
Imo blizz is doing a fine job of keeping business integrity with their income model
Personally I don’t think that matters
Like id personally be happy if they charged 10 or 15 bucks extra per monthly sub in exchange for max trading post progress but they are philosopocally against that shrug
It’s just greedy
It does matter though
It doesn’t
And as much as players exist who argue everything needs to be sourced from ingame content, there are players who argue for being able to buy with cash
Think of how many new players they are not getting because of these things
Whos to say one feedback is valid and the other isnt
The younger generation can just play Fortnite for league for free
Instead of transitioning into a more modern business model to bring in new players, they choose to drain as much as they can out of existing players
Because its free. And wow isnt
So thats heading for a non subscription model which is a whole other argument
And the most basic rule for business management is to appeal to your existing customers, not potential ones
🧢
And id confidently speculate at least 40% of the existing playerbasr is over 28
Its like, why change when their business model is working
Because if you never try to bring in new players, you die out
Well we were talking about vanity items being cash gated which is not even remotely the biggest reason younger gen dont play wow
That’s not the only thing I was talking about at all
If its about competing for new players against free games, then the problem becomes that there is a monthly cost at all
And even then they will still avoid it because their characters look like clay figurines
And the game has tab targeting system
Ye the monetization structure as a whole is just bad
I wouldn’t care about the cash shop stuff if there wasn’t (multiple) box payments and a monthly sub. At that point mtx cosmetics are expected. But you get the point
But based on whose metric? If its the best earning mmorpg in the world which it probably is ...?
Based on the gaming space as a whole
Yeah I get the point
It doesn’t get a free pass just because it’s an mmo
But frankly blizz is doing this because they can and its working
And people have been saying blizz is milking for cash at the cost of the games integrity as far back as cata
Because it’s true
🤷
And the playerbase has only gotten smaller and smaller since
Most games come free backed with a battle pass model, yes. There is a large and wide gap between saying that and also saying that wow should follow that model
The playerbase has not grown or shrunk in a linear fashion over time
Per expansion yes
They’ve kinda already started the beginnings of that in addition to everything else, with the trading post, no?
Yes but they dont push trading post beind cash
They’ve put tenders into cash transactions multiple times have they not
Which they would if they wanted to "milk" it
Only for like deluxe or mythic w.e expansion editions are called I think
Don’t think so
Pretty positive they’ve added tender onto cosmetic transactions
The limited time shit
Eh maybe i wasnt there to see it. Id personally do that and get it over with than doing 15 pet battles wins vs lvl 1 pets in elwynn
Idk, the idea that blizz should scrap their monthly sub model to grab potential customers is just out of touch
imo
lol
But you also said this so
I can see why you might think that way
Its like what i said at the start. They have nothing to gain by appeasing people who advocate nothing being cash gated
When there is another solid portion who are ok with vanity items being cash gated and blizz does stand to gain by appeasing to them
Its just math
I just find it cringe
I mean whats the alternative other than just flat out demanding that they make less money than they currently do
Effectively speaking thats what they are demanding
They could easily replace monthly subs with more cosmetics that’d bring in more than the subs
But getting rid of a “more reliable” thing like monthly subs is a scary thought for a billion dollar company like them
When they can trickle out the cosmetics and still rake it in with less work
That is at best a debatable opinion that comes with a huge business model shakeup and risk
Sure
But at the end of the day
I think the good of the consumer is more important than the billion dollar company
Does being the top dog kill a motivation for innovation? Yes. But have they been the top dog for a long time? Also yes.. so 🤷
Games been dying for such a long time and I hate that 
I dont really believe the current model is hostile to players..
I don’t think they’re even that far ahead of the competition these days
Maybe in revenue, but not player count
Let’s not start the p2w debate lol
But thats literally what is counted for hostile transaction model
wow is not even close
I dont even rly know whats hurting "the good of the customer" here
You can buy tokens to exchange to gold to exchange for every achievement or item in the game
Yet wow players argue wow isn’t p2w

Lol
Are they permanently ahead of people who dont pay?
At any point in the season?
I mean by that logic even free games are p2w?
Token or not real life trading will happen under the table
Not a great argument
And why is it not? Thats the whole reason in game shops have been introduced across the whole industry
“If I don’t sell these people meth, someone else will…”
Ur missing the point
I am saying that games dont suddenly turn into p2w just because the transaction shifts from one medium to another
This is the only true part yes. People that pay don’t gain “extra advantage”, doesn’t make it not p2w imo
So.. wow is a p2w game? Well I certainly missed it all these years
I am pretty sure i can be on exactly the same footing as anyone else, esp in the part of the game this channel is concerned with. As for pve, sure that bis trinket may not drop after 37 clears but that is the nature of a drop driven rpg
Buying tokens lol ain’t getting ripped off
Not my fault they don’t want to combat the gold rmt
I’m using p2w as a general term. Let’s call it “pay to succeed” then since this is everyone’s rebuttal ig
And my point remains the same that even 100% free games cannot escape that, because people exist who are willing to pay under the table. And if that transaction happens on a different medium it makes 0 difference
Maybe there is an argument that an ingame transaction platform makes it more "accessible" to p2succeed, but I think its a better evil than not having it
So just because some bad actors will do it behind the scenes, it’s okay to add the avenue to do so legitimately?
That goes down to an argument is what is wrong and right which is ultimately upto the person.. I believe blizz has decided that buying in game carries is legitimate
I’m not even fundamentally against the wow token being a thing to be real. But it does add less incentive to make ways for players to make gold in game, and that’s always irked a lot of people.
But then again, its not just blizz. that question applies to the whole industry
You guys don’t have to say p2w just say Korean mmos 

or mobile games
Wdym
Like bad actors in csgo paying for gun skins even if steam(or valve, w.e) shop platform wasnt a thing
That specific point touches on the gaming industry in general and not just blizz
Buying masters accnt in league
No company can ever eliminate rmt, so they settled for a legitimized platform
Sure but not all game companies give legitimacy to those things, not by a long shot
I kinda feel like gold buying / bots etc is what just crushes wow classic servers
It will never be fully gone, but many of them take action against those things to stop them or punish the people that do them etc
This argument can be carbon copied to apply to real life debates on what should be legal or not lol
Should prostitution be legalized so that its no longer a platform for black money and be brought into legalized standards..
Whole countries are divided on those topics so who are we to make the call on videogames 😂

I mean marijuana
We are the consumers
literal same thing
We pay we say ! ! !
Yeah and im not just being blizz's lapdog but if they had some customers who say dont cash gate anything and other customers who are willing to open their wallets.. 🤔
who caressssss
if someone buys a glad carry they get check pvpd and see 1 glad and years of hardstuck rival, congrats ur a clown
That wasn’t at all the point of the conversation 😅
i feel like what i just said is pretty relevant to this statement
feel like there’s a lot of miscommunication in this convo, i’m out
Ye the main thing was just talking about monetization

webster called, they said theyre changing the spelling of loser to J-A-S-O-N
aint no way this game is this dead
havent even queued shuf that much this season
how tf cant i get a pop

it usually pops 7-12 minutes for me, lookin bugged af
idk i fk w shuffle
2s damp ruined the bracket
3s is only fotm S tier + comp
can also learn a new class easily
Maybe we will get pops in season 1 of midnight
what's the deal with feral in ss this season? i see them so rarely but when i do they are either destroying the lobby or do less damage than discs even when not trained
lol I went to sleep last night missed the Blizz Money Grab ranting 😭😭😭 @potent pivot we stand at the front of the anti money grab committee 🦦

Damn we are in dark times
Majority of the player base are 30+ give or take 25 yr old + dudes…. Why in the flying baked potatoes would your created mythical war fighting character need a house 😒… game is dead needs revival , we add houses… by all means everyone’s entitled to an opinion on the matter, you either spend your time questing , PVE OR PVP or farming mogs / collectives. Now this house has been should’ve in front of the PVE / Just For Fun scene and they are gunna eat that shit up , end product = blizz gets more money milking the game therefore we await the newest xpac to bring and influx of players back to the game to rinse and repeat the same process 🦦….. okay now I’m done
Ngl I don't see how housing is any different to them releasing now mogs, as far as I know nothing is locked behind a pay wall, it's just a case of if you want to mess around with it then have fun, if not then it doesn't affect you at all
Its already known that there are things for housing you only can get with real money currency. And alone the reason they gave for adding a extra currency is ... pretty bs. Everything they said they need the extra currency for is already achieved with bnet balance.
The extra currency is there the same reason its in nearly all other games. It makes knowing how much something cost harder to grasp. And oh you bought a currency packet with 20k in it? You bought something for 11k and later you want something with 10k cost? Time to buy a new bundle.
Can you play housing with no real money? Yes ofc. Will it make A LOT of money for blizzard? Definitely also yes.
should i try my luck with a demo lock for solo shuffle
see what the other side about lol
Which one is better at what?
so millennials can get a taste of what it's like to own a home
Does this "game is dead" dooming have any metric credit?
I was asking what you were planning of playing. Sub for blitz and assa for shuffle would be better imho.
like down 1 conquest piece + special effect
I was thinking more to focus on blitz with some 2s in there as well
ppl was like this since mop
xd
-LOG IN
-queue 45 min
-that DK is a bot for sure
-healer is spamming for me 50 lines of text how to play my class
-eat 10 mil Aimed Shots in 0,2 seconds
yea this is a good game

2s assa kingsbane is really good from what ive heard
It takes like 30 minutes to an hour to get it if you haven't done the campaign for the skip
But it's good for pvp
Yeah season end will be like February
Go assa fatebound 2v2
I’m killing people in the opener at 2100 rating
It’s nasty
Healer is playing oracle disc priest and they don’t get a chance to top their teammates off between be and my priests mind controls lmfaoo
Does honor transfer to the next expansion? Goofy question but i forgor
😂😂😂😂 this was gold
I feel attacked lmfao
Resets iirc
Returning to wow to do some pvp to get the elite set and the enchant from blitz. I was advised to check out murlok for data on builds and meta stuff, but I'm having trouble with subs multipliers and buffs. I really dont want to get too deep into add-ons to track but I feel like I'm going to need to to know when I can maximize a go. Primarily interested in blitz for now, so looking at sin and outlaw as well
Usually you farm up honor in the week after the expac launches, because the s1 doesn’t start immediately
can prob hit 1800 in blitz with a 10-0 or so
if you get some fast ques can go pretty quick
Prune intervene pls
There really isn’t many buffs that are impactful enough to track anymore. The only thing you really need to see is your Deathstalkers Mark debuff on enemies.
Should i race change NE or stay as human rogue for Midnight?
If you’re having trouble seeing it on enemy plates/frames I’d recommend at least grind betterblizzframes and BetterBlizzPlates
NE will matter less in midnight, might still be one of the “best” racials, but you can kinda just play w/e you want
Especially if you aren’t trying to push r1 type stuff etc
I forgot about that enchant , it’s better than last season but it’s still meh but the visibility is way better might have to to snag that 1800 aint nun
I’m too lazy to gear my toons now, just conquest gear boost me so i can get to work time is money. Rather my time these days
The extra garrote silence is swaying me
Extra garrote silence for being NE ?? I need to go look at these patch notes lol tf is going on
extra restealth
as always
Yea they are going crazy this time gunna have to do some adjusting , hopefully it’s for the better … hopefully , & that extra garrote silence for assa is major in shuffle not sure what you’re pushing but it’s a healers worst nightmare when they’re on the ropes if you can keep the ace in the pocket long enough for a win condition @hot ermine
Rupture and garrote
"subs multipliers and buffs"
Did it reset going into war writhin?
i can never remember but i'm pretty sure ye
i remember always grinding honor cap in pre season
Ye I memeber that but for me that was just for gems etc
i usaully just buy the greens when they go live
i remember grinding honor for blue gear w1
i just don't remember if that was cuz i didn't have any or if it was cuz it reset
yeah
No reason to honor farm before midnight
Valid
It may matter even more, given that they get to trigger additional cheap shot (sub)
doesn't work that way
Entering stealth?
the extra cheap shot for sub is not based on 'stealth'
Ah its vanish or dance
indeed
What makes you think it will matter less? Pruned ccs?
basically all of the damage that was reliant on stealth/vanish is gone
Less helpful for people who rely on WA alarm to press it?
that is why it will matter less
the only reason NE feels so mandatory as a rogue rn is because of the amount of extra damage you can squeeze out of it, as assa/outlaw
it will still be decent for melding casts, but way less extra damage
I only speak from subs perspective
sub doesn't even want to be NE in the first place really
Which else race?
I dont think it is mandatory either, but I also think it will still stay top, maybe slightly less value or not but still top
Orc is better only if you are also matching into a rogue but
the only reason its "top" for sub is because its so good for assa/outlaw
In a free environment aka non tourney that is hard to predict
so you see the cross over on the trackers
Im also functionally speaking. Just the ability to dodge a spell and generate full cps on demand
It might be less braindead since cheap has a cd though
So it may offer less value
yeh
Bring back relent trinket and ill stay human forever
i really think even rn sub is a good 'play w/e race you want' spec
the different races provide so little to it
This is definitely the season where meld matters least for sub
Having no subt to chain off of it
Honestly so many people will fail to utilize its full value in midnight when they dont have a WA displaying screen sized stormbolt icon when its flying to them
Ez mode is prob go orc
I got my elite set!

Are you guys crafting daggers or keeping conquest 1s for assa?
craft
Vers mast
so i got the elite appearance, does anyone know if it will auto unlock the conquest set next season when that change comes through?
no idea if it'll work retroactively, but you can always buy conquest sets with marks of honor later
sub isnt real on the beta
wtaf is this shit
rotation of unironicaly
blades on cd
dance on cd
tech on cd use during dance bc both have 20 second cd basically
and only press shadowstrike/ backstab (same fucking ability cant tell me otherwise) and evis
I lowkey like it
changes took one of the most skill expresive class/specs sub assa etc
and tunred it into
press 1 then 2 then 3
press 1 then 2 then 3
boring and uninspired as fuck
i don't play the beta but it should pretty much be the same than before just without rupture no? symbols is macroed to dance anyway since seamless cheap shot's wouldn't work and flag isn't used this season
the removal of rupture hurts tho. i still hope they dump that idea and give it back to us
i'm wondering too. symbols felt good to press but ultimately it was unnecessary to have an extra button since you macro in anyway
I hope sub does more dmg and we can focus on the game rather than rotation ala 2 button classes kekw
But ultimately I'm sad where the class is headed
The game would be lit if queues times weren’t ass trying to wait for midnight queues but i want weapon enchant lol , caught a 1880 placement match W on sub full greens
So many other games to play with instant queues 
which loa is good right now for a zandalari sub rogue?
those 3 sound good but there's a 5 days CD on switching.
Embracing Bwonsamdi gives you Embrace of Bwonsamdi, giving your damaging abilities a chance to deal additional shadow damage, and heal you for 100% of the damage dealt.
Embracing Kimbul gives you Embrace of Kimbul, giving your damaging abilities a chance to make your target bleed for 6 seconds. This ability can stack up to 3 times.
Embracing Pa'ku you Embrace of Pa'ku, giving your damaging abilities a chance to grant you 4% Critical Strike chance.
i feel like the sap bug isn’t a bug
bout to be a bug that turns into a 2 year issue until they fix it in the last titan
has shadowheart even been changed?
fresh outlaw for solo shuffle.....
train healer each round and cleave melee dps and healers just drop and im full greens
they're all so tiny it prolly doesn't even matter
because now you have nothing to stop restealths or prop up your consistent damage
losing symbols means less control over supercharger. atm you can symbols twice in 1 go for more burst.
Ah, ye didn't think od that. But tbh i don't want consistent dmg, just ret or eoe burst on my dance
So people would be raging left and right
well the entire design is leaning into more consistent damage
a lot of modifiers are gonezo
so hopefully losing rupture won't matter for that
it just feels weird to lose your only bleed
Yeah it will be weird launch/prepatch overall
No more cs spam in subterfuge as assa
Or outlaw
Close
Just one more lobby
I’m gonna begin the outlaw journey soon :<
I’ve been too nervous to Q lol
Crippling imposter syndrome idk
in midnight terms that is akhually elite lol
officially qued up as a demo lock for solo shuffle lol
Nice
yeah demo lock is fun... so many pets lol
and i feel invincible with this death pact and reflective shield pvp talent
how you guys you reply to those guys?
i just reply "fuck you"
i used to bait them and treat them as real gms and they would just ignore me
does this mean u needed OH lol
that means i need a rogue in classic to loot them
but my fucking rogue never loots them
its actually insane that we killed this guy here. he Communed at 40% jfc
i learned how to sim them and the bleeding is +1,5% DPS in PvE but after choosing it it's only 0,5% in PvP unfortunately. Back to +5% movement speed
realest GM possible
chaos bolt doing chaos bolt things
you can check the wowhead page for spells/buffs and look at the pvp modifier, some things are heavily nerfed in pvp
5 Am Queues? Sounds like a terrible idea tbh
Sin Destro def one of the fun comps 🙂
has ur game popped yet 
Every once in a while I can cosplay mm hunter on my destro
That being said
My highest instant aimed shot in arena on my hunter is 8.6
My biggest bolt so far was like 7.7
Wild that blizzard is fine with this lmao
I hit a 12 mil bolt
In pve gear lmfaooo
In arena? I’ve never see anything that high lol
That’s some stars aligning stuff
it was like every other game istg
Literally don’t think I’ve ever seen anything over like 9m
CB specifically
Def see a 9+mil aimed shot lmao
Would anyone mind helping me with my Sin burst and telling me if its correct? What im doing right now is from invis double garrote into rupture into ambush into kidney then shiv into kingsbane into deathmark then mutilate till 5-6 combo points then spend on envenom. Im just not getting as many tails flips as other sins ive seen 100-0 people in 3 seconds so was just wondering what im doing wrong ? Im also only 723 pvp ilvl and I do not have 2 set yet
Do we have a guide for assa rogue? like rotations
@thick dagger @muted spire trimaz made a guide on YT, wowhead pve opener is practically the same iirc, IceyVeins, etc
Gear matters but it also sounds like you’re leaving out possibly vanish
the trimaz guide is 2 month ago, the rotation is up to date?
Nothing has changed
Ahh ok were should I plug in vanish I’ve been using it for triple garrote silence on heals when I’m doing a go on dps
Check out the guide, idr if it mentions that you can vanish during burst or not
You don’t always want to commit a vanish to your burst if you’re already going in with subt, but it does add coin flips etc
Ty
is there a reason a kick on penance doesnt trigger a lockout?
or is it just a UI thing
depends
if its shadow mode bc of voidweaver
it only locks shadow
so they can cast holy
if they are casting normal penance they can still cast shadow
I see, thx. usually it would show me a lockout icon on the nameplates but a penance kick somehow doesnt show any so I was wondering
just checking out that video seems like he is running 4 set instead of 2 set like everyone is running and his talents are different are you sure this video from 2 months ago is still viable ?
was trying to find where you were talking about with vanish but it isnt mentioned
Looking for something like this?
actually yes ty
i guess ive been doing deathmark and kingsbane wrong
i always useds KB firsst
Iirc there’s 2 different sections in that vid
And last I looked that graphic was slightly off
Not mine btw idk who exactly made it but +rep to them
Yes I’m sure it’s still viable he goes over both hero trees
A couple talents in either builds are interchangeable and do not matter
As far as the gear, pretty sure he was using 4set because he preferred deathstalker at the time and that tree uses 4set
Question was about rotation which is fine in the vid
anybody getting lucky with midnight pvp ques? 4th 20 min shuffle que where it just auto kicks everyone
why are we quing shuffle on beta lol
though im not pvping on beta till they fix assa rogue energy
So we can get burned out on release and blame the devs
Duh
I think it’s going live like that ngl 
no
implacable is bugged
only giving 20% energy max
when it should be caping at 80
ah
i still think assa is supposed to be way slower energy regen in the end
compared to rn on live
iut will be
If rogue vanish and get sighted + imprison or stun by a dh, will it proc Subterfuge?
@dark moon /shy
6/6 killing blows, 1B damage 😄
Wasn’t sure which mode would have the most players and skirmishes was hit or miss
Yeah
Ayoooooooooooooooo
Congrats my man!!
2.4 next
🫡 ❤️
i think im gonna gear a ret out and do some solo shuffle
you should try devastation
ive done that and demo
i like lock but idk i cant really do caster well lol
Do you think we will see a change in racial meta? Or still all ne for restealth
Why do u have the same bar twice lol
cause im old with bad eyes
I got that and BM too lol. I think it’s time to wait till midnight lol
