more busted than on live

vivid vessel
#

yeye

#

it is what it is

#

tbf i think you would rather be mid on ptr

#

cause ptr get tuning

lone crow
#

they got buffed man like how can they get buffed and we get almost N OTHIONG

#

like MAN

fossil lintel
#

That's not even a good thing since tuning will happen

proven ocean
#

anythng

lone spear

mid on ptr, buffed on live

#

thats how u become dev evoker

proven ocean
#

dont feel bad once arcane gets nerfed

#

cuz

#

it'll eventually happen

lone crow
#

they for sure will get nerfed

#

there is no way it stays like this

glass mortar
#

isnt arcane like the gigachad funneler on live

#

if its winning on overalls in dungeons

#

its probably a problem

lone crow
#

havoc does also funnel crazy rn

proven ocean
#

its winning overall+turbo ass funnel but weran be aware of this btw they dont tune funnel

#

at all

#

like

#

at all

glass mortar
#

ye i know

proven ocean
#

unless ur funnel is BROKEN ASS

#

they dont

glass mortar
#

they r shit at designing this game around profiles

#

sometimes it happens by accident but half the time shit is broken its the most busted shit in its niche and also just the highest overall mf on the planet

#

its sad

proven ocean
glass mortar
#

there profile seems really wonky

proven ocean
#

ret does more overall than sin by a good amount but u lose 1-2 mins automatically from only a ret pala

#

in the grp

#

just

#

ret joins grp

#

-1 key timer

#

-1 min

haughty wigeon
#

what are you sayign zeross?

proven ocean
#

im not talking about low keys btw

#

just high keys

haughty wigeon
#

ret isnt the super op turbo busted spec in the game every shitter says they are

#

crazy

glass mortar
#

its in a good place honestly for what the spec is and its target playerbase imo

#

let them think they are the most op turbo busted spec in the game

fossil lintel
haughty wigeon
#

ya sadly

#

ret forever trapped in dad gamer mode

proven ocean
#

but its bad too ye

#

sub only has rly bad dmg

#

its dmg profile is excellent imo

haughty wigeon
#

i cant wait to be useless early in the season until i get the .5 buff

proven ocean
#

very very good dmg profile

#

just undertuned

fossil lintel
#

Yeah but they killed their funnel because of zul

#

1 boss and they lost their giga funnel just like that

glass mortar
#

zul was a problem but sometimes blizzard lets a problem like that snowball into deleting a fun aspect of a spec forever

#

theres an uncaplaw joke in here somewhere

#

do keep in mind that on zul u were better off having ur main raiders play sub rogues in legit herioc dungeon gear for raw boss damage

#

that boss was very funny stuff

quaint mauve
#

is this spec considered funnel? or no

glass mortar
#

man current arcane would eat that boss up

lone spear
#

we're considered cleave

quaint mauve
#

ah

glass mortar
#

fatebound does not have funnel

#

negative funnel actually

lone spear
#

you could maybe say deft gives us tiny funnel

glass mortar
#

trickster kir has very very minor funnel

lone spear
#

but not really

glass mortar
#

i wouldnt take it seriously because ur not rlly doing more St then u would in full ST talents with deft on aoe

#

but ur doing about the same which is good

quaint mauve
#

do you not get more combo points in aoe? and do more dmg to your primary target? idk

lone spear
#

passive cleave is a great damage profile, especially because we lose nothing for it

glass mortar
#

kir trickster does

#

thats why it can match its ST in ST build if you have "funnel"

#

but ur not actually gaining damage past ur st

quaint mauve
#

ahhh

#

i see

glass mortar
#

HO doesnt play deft, fatebound actually loses ST in any aoe situation due to the hero talents

#

so no funnel there (negative funnel for fatebound)

quaint mauve
#

i asked one question earlier but it got flooded out :p

#

should i always adrenaline at 0 combo points ?

#

seems to be ideal on my
mind

lone spear
#

if you can yea

#

sometimes you might need to or it will drop

glass mortar
#

the guide says low cp so imma say anywhere from 0-3 probably

#

not sure what the exact value is but thats whereabout i use it

vivid vessel
#

You are never at 0

#

But yes

glass mortar
#

tru

vivid vessel
#

1-3 is fine

#

Usually it's just 1-2

glass mortar
#

i mean if i finish on 1 cp i might be on zero next to max out my adr cdr

#

have u considered that zac

#

????

vivid vessel
#

Idk a situation where you would press it at 3 really

lone spear
#

maybe 1 more global in subterfuge

#

and u can adr BTE

glass mortar
#

ye thats rare only happens if i finish >now adr is on like a 1 s cd and i dont wanna wait so u pressa builder

#

and now do u wanna wait to adr and press a finisher before it

#

or just waste some CP

quaint mauve
#

ty guys

#

always so helpful

lone spear
#

when we arent complaining kekdog

glass mortar
#

we r helpful even when we are complaining 😠

#

im sorry ur question got lost tho

#

usually someone snipes them even if its mid zac crashout

#

usually that person is me but im trying to finish paperwork rn so i can be on my long weekend

lone spear
#

i was in here too long and got corrupted like alleria

#

forced into a crashout

glass mortar
#

u were doomed to fail because the outlaw community has a deep dislike for the idea of giving us a real cd profile

#

idd with ur core idea that it would be a net positive design wise

#

some things just come out ahead of that i think

#

its like when they changed survival to be a melee and the spec never recovered even tho i think its a super cool spec now a day

#

ur doing something that doesnt target the core playerbase of that spec and is actively make them want to quit it

lone spear
#

yea, i guess people just prioritize different stuff for what they like about a spec

#

for me the gameplay is why i play law

wintry solar
#

Why doesn't ho/kir work?

lone spear
#

the shitty damage profile is just a tradeoff

vivid vessel
#

No cd is gameplay

glass mortar
lone spear
#

i mean

vivid vessel
#

A spec with CDs plays way different than a spec with CDs

lone spear
#

if u just added "big bomba" ability

vivid vessel
#

It changes everything

glass mortar
#

u know how much heavy lifting fth does for HO right

#

audacity can proc off every shot

vivid vessel
#

First off you think about your crs

#

Ces

glass mortar
#

imagine if u only shot once

lone spear
#

ur still pressing same buttons

vivid vessel
#

Cds

wintry solar
vivid vessel
#

Well you really aren't

wintry solar
#

Idr

vivid vessel
#

Idk if I need to explain that tbh tho

#

Cba rn it's 2 am

lone spear
#

i mean i understand what u mean

#

CDs do warp rotations

#

but some dont

#

and i think they could design one that doesnt

#

but like weran said, i dont think they will

glass mortar
#

u run out of points right here

#

u need to give up 1 or the other to have enough points to get it

lone spear
#

drop crackshot and ace

#

xdd

wintry solar
#

Dang

glass mortar
#

if we could take fth and both of those we absolutely would sine both r strong enough to drive entire playstyles

wintry solar
#

Makes sense then lol

glass mortar
#

nothing forcing kir to press SS

#

yea

quaint mauve
#

wait does uhh idk the name of it the skull ability, apply to multiple targets if u press it during the aoe thing

glass mortar
#

ghostly strike? no

#

its only aoe value is its direct damage on cast and cp gen

#

its a ST talent

quaint mauve
#

okok

glass mortar
#

a very very strong ST talent

lone spear
#

and have playerbases stick around

#

if rogue is next in line for rework like some think

#

i wonder how much damage it will do to the core playerbase

glass mortar
#

alot of the core elements tend to stick around but yea its not impossible to do

#

like we had a fairly large rejig in DF s3 infact

#

outlaw was transformed quite drastically imo while keeping the core elements similar

#

and the damage profile almost identical

#

which is impressive since ud think the crackshot design would lead to some kinda psuedo cd playstyle

lone spear
#

yea, i remember trying it and saying "yuck this is so hard and crazy"

#

but you just adapt i guess

lime lake
#

adapt or move on

glass mortar
#

it is nice we can leverage slightly elevated damage windows sometimes now a day i guess

lone spear
#

double vanish charges really did that

#

best change of the expansion imo

glass mortar
#

double vanish charges probably the best change we got this expac honestly, its definitly a happy replacement for dance

lone spear
#

The Single-Button Assistant and Assisted Highlight now recommend more appropriate weapon poisons based on your talents and adjust their recommendations towards Wound Poison in PvP content.

omg so cool

haughty wigeon
#

the only true reworks are probably just like what

#

idk

#

3 specs total?

lone spear
#

well core rotation is one thing

glass mortar
#

ok but if u count within single specs shadow priest has had its core engine redesigned like 3 or 4 times on its own

#

usually they dont change that even for reworks tho yea

#

shadow is just eternally cooked

#

simmering on the heater

lone spear
#

yea like they arent gonna change us from builder > spender

#

or remove RB entirely

#

but if ur saying adding what is essentially convoke to outlaws is gonna kill off peoples enjoyment

#

then idk i would disagree

#

but then again this is just personal preference

#

some people actually enjoy moonkin rotation

haughty wigeon
#

4 specs

glass mortar
#

shadows been like 4 different specs since wod at least imma be honest

sharp hinge
glass mortar
#

i think its more a sign of shadows troubles then how they change stuff tho

lone spear
glass mortar
#

they certainly lost me as a player

lone spear

buy again, preference

#

whats great about wow is unless you are legit going for top 50 world or are in a toxic guild

#

you can play any spec and clear all content

sharp hinge
proven ocean
#

or just be the toxic guy and leave

#

if they're that annoying

lone spear
#

exactly

#

only times ur forced on a spec

proven ocean
#

i hate cringe guilds

lone spear
#

is because ur in that situation

proven ocean

i only raid for fun

lone spear

its a game at end of the day, choose to have fun 👍

proven ocean

i never raid for ranks

Rogue changes for next patch , all abilities damage increased by 10% (See you next season , Your developers)

feel free to ask my officers

feel free to check logs

#

Ks just got reworked and the trickster tier got fixed as well

frail veldt
proven ocean
#

ngl guy

#

rogue is in a shitty spot

#

its not just outlaw

lone spear
#

i mean yea we're having work done on outlaw

frail veldt
#

But yeah tbh weve gotten some good attention so far this ptr

proven ocean
#

atleast outlaw is getting changes

frail veldt
#

So I'm excited

proven ocean
#

sin is in shambles

lone spear
#

but rogue is getting so little compared to other functional classes

cinder relic
#

Whats wrong with sin

lone spear
#

you gotta call it out

dense forge
#

Am i the only one that feels like rogue is in shambles? like literally close to a need of rework

proven ocean
#

sin is so weak and undertuned so

dense forge
#

And getting like one button roation changes only

proven ocean
cinder relic
#

ALl 3 rogue specs are undertuned

dense forge
#

Sin deathstalker is a vibe to play in keys

frail veldt
#

Sin plays well tbh

dense forge
#

right?

frail veldt
#

Afaik

cinder relic
#

Idc about tuning I'm talking about the vibes of the specs

dense forge
#

Sin deathstalker in keys is Aidsss

proven ocean
#

did u login ptr once

#

mewo

dense forge
#

not talking bout tuning at all

proven ocean
#

on sin with new tier set?

frail veldt
#

No I haven't played new tier I just meant in general on live

glass mortar
#

wouldnt call tier fixed but its def improved so good job

#

1 more change and some tuning and itll be fixed

median lance
#

ROUGE WILL RISE AGAIN JUST LIKE THE SOUTH

frail veldt
#

Sin play style seems the least broken of the 3 specs haha

proven ocean
#

tier set is soooooooooo bad

#

its unbelievable

#

makes gameplay so SHIT

lone spear
#

i think its just like, its time for some freshness with rogue, especially when it comes to talents

cinder relic
#

DS sin feels good on ptr no?

proven ocean
#

no its honestly quite miserable to play

#

i expected the opposite

#

beforehand

wintry solar
cinder relic
#

It felt p good on testing to me idk

proven ocean
#

but honestly it's reeally bad to play

#

idk no point extending shiv by 2 seconds

#

and consuming 1 mark by shiv is pointless because it can be badly ligned up

#

and u end up in weird situations

cinder relic
#

It felt like it lined up pretty good during testing to me idk

proven ocean
#

feels like its just taking things off of you instead of offering new things

cinder relic
#

Just feels like current sin but dry shiv is more important

proven ocean
#

and raid maybe too but

#

in m+ lots of things going on and things just aren't scripted

#

sometimes u cant even shiv on kingsbane in M+ because alot of things is going on

#

so a longer shiv cd and consuming mark can be sus

#

besides the duration is way longer than kingsbane

#

so it feels completely wasted

#

best case scenario it adds 1 envenom

#

feels rly weak

#

sometimes u dont even get an extra envenom

#

i think it'll be 2pc 2pc in M+ for a while

cinder relic
#

The extra shiv duration doesn't feel like it does much, the DS effect, and -1 mark is good tho so idrc

#

+2 seconds or not, it plays basically the asme

proven ocean
#

-1 mark is really bad in keys

#

like super super bad

#

totally unneeded, and the 2 sec shiv is utterly useless

#

especially that shiv doesnt spatter

#

if the tier set makes shiv icnrease spatter dmg then it'll be really interesting

cinder relic
#

Why is -1 mark bad in keys?

proven ocean
#

badly lines up with the m+ dmg rotation

#

sometimes u have to shiv while darkest night is up

#

which feels so bad

#

and i truly believe its a dps gain to shiv in that window too

#

its that bad

#

it felt like a cool idea first i read about it

#

but honestly plays bad unexpectedly

wooden oriole
#

!wa

tight egret
#

Do we just low CP KS on gally durring the rotating line?

glass mortar
#

during the first one u do it before, then cloak, then its over

#

during the second one u can do it safely if u time it right but i havent played the fight enough to tell u how, u could check @vivid vessel vods

#

u always go to a set spot on his hitbox so

grim spear
#

If you're not aiming for an All-Star ranking, then just play FB

#

the last few weeks

#

no need to waste the team's time on this stupid thing

glass mortar
#

kspree is pretty safe on the fight honestly

#

thats like the 1 dangerous point and i think its not as dangerous as it seems i just havent done it enough

#

i took so much damage from kspree stagger and i was not close to death a single time the entire fight

plucky oak
#

I'm doing 800k dps single target and 3mil on 5 target cleave at ilvl 656. How bad am I?

glass mortar
#

letting my healers pad fr

#

800k sounds very low but its hard to give u metrics for being massively undergeared

#

ud probably sim as close to twice that in ur current gear, maybe not on a dummy sim tho

grim spear
#

800k st is low even for s1

glass mortar
#

ya

plucky oak
#

On assassination I'm doing 1.2mil st which I suspect is still shockingly low and probably an indication that I'm catastrophically bad at the game in general, but I can handle being bad in general and knowing I need to improve at a million different things.

What's really bothering me right now is just how much worse my outlaw is doing in comparison to my own play on other specs.

#

I keep getting tips from people who know better and yet the gap between expected performance and actual performance doesn't seem to be getting much smaller

glass mortar
#

logs r very helpful, or vods even

#

hard to give general tips other then practice and read the guides in here

#

!commonerrors

ornate heathBOT
glass mortar
#

especially these sections

#

outlaw is really an all parts make the sum spec

frail veldt
glass mortar
#

u cant just figure out a few key aspects or figure ur major cd window out and do decent damage

frail veldt
#

It doesn't have a very linear skill to DPS relationship

glass mortar
#

depending on ur current gear level u might allso be hurting urself with ur builds. do u have this seasons 4set?

gaunt phoenix
#

Law is trying everything in its power to keep adrenaline rush active cause it doesnt tick down during stealth/subterfuge

so everything about the rotation keeps AR and Vanish average cooldowns low enough to keep it active most of the time

glass mortar
#

all the recommended major builds in the FaQ basically require it, there is builds there that dont but they arent the major ones shown

#

LMAO apparently a ton of salty classic players are spam reporting people making new pandaran because they think they are all retail players just doing it to get the mount

#

my friend just got this and he hasnt even typed since he started leveling

frail veldt
#

Lololol

#

That's so toxic

#

The auto report system is so stupid

glass mortar
#

yup

frail veldt
#

And they blatantly lie saying theyve done a manual review

#

I had a ban overturned cuz of that

#

I called them out and told them to show me chat logs

plucky oak
frail veldt
#

They folded and unbanned me

#

Fucking scumbags

glass mortar
#

yea the mute shit goes crazy

frail veldt
#

And I could see the tone change in the responses as I went from clearly an outsourced person to an actual mod

glass mortar
#

in DF on my server there was a guy who was basically like the black market for getting elemental lariat

lone spear
glass mortar
#

one of my friends told me about him but he doesnt whisper people or advertise because he was basically making peoples lariats for free/tips in s1 and he would just get muted every single day

#

by all the other JC spam reporting him

frail veldt
#

It's fun once you put the time in but yeah if it doesn't seem fun now it prob won't be fun later

glass mortar
#

they banded together to try to get him banned

wintry solar

big cooks inc

glass mortar
#

outlaw is a lot of effort

wintry solar
#

yeah

glass mortar
#

if it clicks for u and its fun then i highly recommend it

#

it is a very very very high effort spec tho

wintry solar

I'm in my thirties and playing on a steam deck. My ability to keep up with other players is predicated heavily on the gcd being significantly longer than 0.8s.

glass mortar
#

and currently the payoff is quite good even

#

ooooo steam deck outlaw

#

sounds rough

wintry solar
#

oh yeah I forgot about that

glass mortar
#

hows wow on steam deck in general?

plucky oak
lone spear
#

god i want a steam deck, but cant justify it since i just work from home anyway

#

but just being cozy in bed with my cats and playing some baldurs gate

#

sounds so nice

glass mortar
#

nice ive considered trying one for when im traveling, i definitly dont think even id be able to play this spec well with that setup tho

#

its definitly gunna be one of the hardest

wintry solar
#

ive never been comfortable playing a handheld in all honestly

glass mortar
#

honestly rogue in general might be rough because even sin and sub, while they have downtime, during cds ur mashing 1s gcd abilities

#

and it is important to get them all off asap in ur cd windows

gaunt phoenix
#

time to ret

glass mortar
#

ret would probably work well yea

#

most of the hunter specs too

plucky oak
# lone spear god i want a steam deck, but cant justify it since i just work from home anyway

I bought one years ago because I was spending a lot of time at my gf's place and couldn't justify moving my desktop pc.

Now we live together and I still barely use the desktop because I'm on duty in dad mode basically 24/7 and ain't no way I'm putting that rig in my son's room.

Of course the kid killed my gaming laptop, so if I wanted to keep playing wow I had to think of something. Dusted off the steam deck and voila.

glass mortar
#

it doesnt need to be simple really, but having a basic bitch gcd and not having too much haste probably helps

glass mortar
#

i mean he is a filthy retailer just doing it for the mount so like

proven ocean

(i know)

#

u get a mount if u complete the panda starting zone in pandaria classic

#

on retail i believe

proven ocean
#

also wtf is that thought u brought up theres no way someone is that dumb as shit

glass mortar
#

never underestimate

#

classic players

#

the guy who got this is so afraid of getting banned he wont even take part in sales with his guild even tho they dont do rmt

proven ocean

classic players are the most stupid individuals to ever exist in this universe

so i dont think its a natty mute

gaunt phoenix
#

at the time

proven ocean
#

yeah

glass mortar
#

i actually missed the whole expac

proven ocean
#

but not main

glass mortar
#

so im excited

#

i might raid with some friends in it

gaunt phoenix
#

i wish i was there

proven ocean
#

i liked the perma sprint

glass mortar
#

ive heard there was a ton of very good design

proven ocean
#

i was a giga ass noob tho

glass mortar
#

some specs were close to the peak they hit in wod before legion rework

proven ocean
#

yea alot of classes felt very very good in mop

#

like

#

REALLY good

#

same with wod

glass mortar
#

and it was the last expac of snapshotting which honestly added some very cool gameplay to specs with the trinkets they made

proven ocean
#

we didnt have bugs too back then, atleast not as much

#

or maybe i sucked too hard to even know so idk

glass mortar
#

im gunna be playing rogue/warlock/monk i think

#

not sure on my third yet

#

def wanna play rogue cause its the only full rogue expac i missed

proven ocean
#

if i play i'll play combat rogue otherwise not really

glass mortar
#

i loved sub pre legion

#

an i think wod sub was just an improved version of pandaria so

#

i should enjoy it

proven ocean
#

old sub was so interesting

#

because shadowdance felt like something quite unique

jaunty holly
#

what do we think best specs gonna be next patch

proven ocean
#

now we have alot of spells and stuff all over all classes

#

so ye

glass mortar
#

did u play sub at all in wod ross

#

ring soul cap sub in hfc

proven ocean
glass mortar
#

proc soul cap in the opener, do zero dps for the first 20s of the fight

#

then suddenly u explode and 10% boss hp evaporates

proven ocean
#

i did play enh tho in wod

#

with that trinket

#

i had it on mythic too

#

was kinda cool

glass mortar
#

enhance was also a banger ugh

#

i wanna play panda enhance too

#

not enough time for all the specs i wanna try

proven ocean
#

raiding mythic back then was so easy too btw

#

lmao

glass mortar
#

yea thats why im considering raiding

#

a couple of my friends wanna start a team, they are currently raiding on classic

proven ocean
#

u can easily get carried in wod back then

glass mortar
#

seems like vibes

proven ocean
#

game was too easy

#

too chill

#

just 90% that know what to do and ur fine

glass mortar
#

perfect im gunna dadgamermode it

proven ocean
#

(considering ur not raiding early)

#

cuz ppl aren't high geared and stuff

#

atleast thats how it worked out for me

#

i just sneaked my way in

#

RL was so respectful

#

i kept telling him im so trash and kept dying every pull

#

he didnt kick me at all

glass mortar
#

my first expac raiding was wod so i missed it all

proven ocean
glass mortar
#

all gunna be new fights for me

proven ocean
#

ppl were so chill back then weran u have no idea

glass mortar
#

fights hadnt quite reached post legion raid design yet but way way higher quality then previous classics

proven ocean
#

like

#

u dont have shitholes selling heroic items

gaunt phoenix
#

the age before discord

proven ocean
#

nothing

wintry solar
#

WoD CP shouldve been a thing since vanilla

proven ocean
#

like it was so nice

#

it was so great that even open world had nice interactions from ppl

glass mortar
#

some things never change (being a loser) feelsyarrman

proven ocean
#

wow was cool as hell

#

people just look for dopamine nowadays xdd

junior coral
#

baron braunpyke in prio, can you cloak the orbs

glass mortar
#

we had a community forum thread and everything

#

going all the way from cata through legion

#

tricks of our trade

proven ocean
#

ngl even wow devs felt like u were meeting james bond or someshit

#

you'd get scared talking to a dev even if he shows up

#

now ur like

#

fuck devs

#

good old days

#

more snowflakes and toxic and extreme kind of shit showed up lately, u could easily join random full raid mythic runs without having to be too good

#

just look for any guild that advertises in trade chat looking for raider and stuff

#

and ur just in

#

easy as that

glass mortar
#

its just the trend of the gaming community its happening across all games tbh

#

all popular ones anyway

#

it existed back then too but it was far less mainstream for sure

proven ocean
#

idk weran

#

everything feels like on an extreme level in games nowadays

glass mortar
#

it is for sure

proven ocean
#

like im surprised even +10 keys can show up with tryhards

glass mortar
#

i mean the gaming culture is lightyears apart

gaunt phoenix
#

it's a generational thing

proven ocean
#

back in wod like

#

dungeons were just dungeons u log in u kill bosses

glass mortar
#

the game is also much much more friendly to casuals now a day then it was back then tho

proven ocean
#

oh we wipe lool lets try again for 2 hours

cinder relic
#

Yeah it's sort of just an unfortunate byproduct of how a lot of online games get hyper optimized

proven ocean
#

u wont have a dipshit flaming you for 5 hours straight after wiping once because of missing an interrupt lets say

glass mortar
#

the accessibility of raiding, the expectation of even fairly low end players getting mythic gear from +10s by the end of the season

#

(not that these are bad things)

#

its just hard to compare to how it was back then

#

as a super shitter kiddo casual in wotlk and cata i got do to jackshit for pve content

proven ocean
#

im just surprised that it exists in low end players

#

like

glass mortar
#

queue for normals and heriocs and then id be capped on gear for the season

proven ocean
#

they're the worst kind of players in terms of gameplay

glass mortar
#

gatekeeping for even seeing a raid boss was much higher at that point

proven ocean
#

idk

#

like

#

weran even fps games

dawn talon
proven ocean
#

people buy that 30g mouse

#

for their silver lobby csgo game

dawn talon
#

it's the people who like mind control themselves

proven ocean
#

like

dawn talon
#

and don't actually care

proven ocean
#

wtf are u even trying to do

dawn talon
#

but try to 'keep up' for some stupid reason or another

#

who r perma malding

proven ocean
#

or someshit

#

like

#

they aren't even on a decent level

#

whenever i play any fps game i just use my normal wow mouse

dawn talon
#

i mean i play wow with an fps mouse

#

bc i just hate hate hate heavy mice

proven ocean
#

ye thats fine i do that too sometimes

dawn talon
#

i think ppl r kinda braindead abt it though bc

#

in clicktiming games like cs ur mouse weight is sooo irrelevant

proven ocean
#

i think thats only relevant if ur a pro

glass mortar
#

eh i mean thats just the same in sports right

dawn talon
#

if ur like a hitscan andy in ow or something tracking is noticeably easier on lighter mice

glass mortar
#

people want the best tech so they can reach their maximum potential

#

even if that potential is

dawn talon
#

nah i think even like dia hitscan player in overwatch

glass mortar
#

silver in league of legends

dawn talon
#

would play better on a lighter mouse

#

it's irrelevant after a certain point though

glass mortar
#

why is the tennis casual (thats me) buying a 100 dollar racket that nadal uses

dawn talon
#

like 150g mouse is trolling urself

#

but anything below ~80

#

w/e

glass mortar
#

well for me it was because the strings looked hype af but its like that across everything right

#

sports and video games

proven ocean
#

i feel like buying things u like is fine

dawn talon
#

yea but buy things you actually like

proven ocean
#

you can do that thats a way to enjoy ur life i suppose

dawn talon
#

ppl just pretend to care

#

way more than they actually do

#

and make themselves upset

#

i don't rly get it

proven ocean
#

idk, no one should take things seriously if they aren't on a high level on anything really

dawn talon
#

nah i was rly dogshit at cs when i started taking it seriously

lone spear
#

eh, yes and no

dawn talon
#

i think i was legit like gn2

#

LMFAO

glass mortar
#

if u have fun taking it seriously u should do that regardless of ur skill level

lone spear
#

^ this

glass mortar
#

nothing wrong with making urself 20% stronger baseline even if ur only reaching 50% of a specs potential

#

but if its making u angry

#

or upset

#

its a video game

#

why are u paying to do this to urself

lone spear
#

thats where people cant draw the line tho

proven ocean
#

like if i remember correctly literally any game u could do whatever u want play with anyone and its gonna be alright

#

now u have these specific things where

#

does he have enough rio?

#

is he good enough

#

is he geared enough

#

is his wifi good and he wont dc after 5 runs?

dawn talon
#

i play league w my iron friends sometimes

#

it just depends

upbeat tundra
#

all of that goes away with a que system instead of lfg

proven ocean
#

does he eat healthy so that he wont just sleep mid key and alt f4 afterwards

#

like

#

xdd

upbeat tundra
#

the problem is lfg

dawn talon
#

nah

upbeat tundra
#

the problem is letting other people decide if you get to play the game or not

dawn talon
#

bc if i get ppl who annoy me in queue

proven ocean
#

clush im not talking about wow im just talking in general

upbeat tundra
#

its cringe and no other game has this system

dawn talon
#

in any game

proven ocean
#

like

dawn talon
#

i just afk the game

proven ocean
#

all kinds of games

lone spear
proven ocean
#

back then you can do anything kinda

dawn talon
#

like rn in overwatch

haughty wigeon
#

i click things

dawn talon
#

maybe 30% of my lobbies actually go through

lone spear
#

its just lfg is inherently a filter thing

dawn talon
#

w/o someone having the game remade

haughty wigeon
#

and do goodge damahe

upbeat tundra
#

competitive games have been hyper meta driven forever

dawn talon
#

bc they don't like our supp player's hero pool

lone spear
#

queueable m+ is the only way to fix it

dawn talon
#

or they don't like our tank bc they griefed him 3 weeks ago

#

or they don't like the map

upbeat tundra
lone spear
#

but idk if they'll ever do that

proven ocean
dawn talon
#

queued mythic+ would be so insanely dogshit

upbeat tundra
#

you cannot let other people decide if you get to play the game

lone spear
#

nor if it is worthy tradeoff

proven ocean
#

esports sparked up so high since then

upbeat tundra
#

a que system is the only way

dawn talon
#

dude

#

it's the same thing in queue systems

#

LMFAO

upbeat tundra
#

it works in fellowship it can work in wow

lone spear
#

ehhhh, its lessened for sure

proven ocean
#

i feel like covid brought in alot of introverts

dawn talon
proven ocean
#

and thats by a really large %

dawn talon
#

go look na master league games

#

50% of games u ahve insanely obvious soft int

#

bc ppl dislike eachother in medium elo

#

and have egos

#

it will be the same in wow

upbeat tundra
#

ill take that over sitting in dornogol not being able to play

lone spear
#

that game is PvP and inherently competitive

proven ocean
#

wow is full of ego everywhere you go

dawn talon
#

xd?

lone spear
#

wow is PvE and has intrinsic goals

upbeat tundra
#

i will take toxicity and everything that goes with a que system over not being able to play at all

#

lfg is dogshit

lone spear
#

i can time 10s with 2 people doing half my damage

dawn talon
#

u can't play at all in a game where u get soft inted either ?

lone spear
#

i can very rarely carry a game against 5 other people of equal skill in league

proven ocean
lone spear
#

if half my team is inting

proven ocean
#

its hard to do that tho

dawn talon
#

ye man just play the game enemy eve is +4lvls +3items u can walk out of ur fountain?

upbeat tundra
dawn talon
#

ok

upbeat tundra
#

im not resubbing until a solo que exists

dawn talon
#

then play something else?

upbeat tundra
#

i am

glass mortar
proven ocean
#

clush honestly

glass mortar
#

and pvp lends itself to this form of toxicity in a WHOLE nother way then pve imo

proven ocean
#

i've been playing osrs alot lately

#

jpc is playing it too

glass mortar
#

proven ocean
#

#

i think sodapoppin hopping on it

proven ocean
#

sodapoppin started playing osrs and u have no idea how HUGE that means to osrs

lone spear
#

will do big things

#

yeyeye

proven ocean
#

bro

glass mortar
#

i dont know if i fully agree a queue system for m+ would remove toxicity, i could see it being an avenue of access that reduced it for alot of players tho if they did it right

proven ocean
#

soda playing a big mmo game means alot

#

u have no idea

#

legit

glass mortar
#

i think pvp alone lends itself to this toxic mindset more then pve and basically every queue system out there is for pvp

#

so its hard to compare

lone spear
#

wym i have no idea I JUST SAID IT OMEGAKEKW

proven ocean
#

ngl wink i've been watching these streamers all my life, and everytime i see them play a big game it explodes like a nuke bomb

proven ocean
dawn talon

100k viewers on twitch live is crazy insane

#

i get 80-120 viewers on twitch

#

but

#

my vods are like
