Did you unblock me just to defend heroic logs

#

Nope still blocked

lone junco
#

nah. just click the annoying block thing.

round harbor
#

Lol

gilded lark
#

Glad to know the butthurt has lasted weeks

manic vigil
#

@fervent beacon insignia/boots buddies for life boio

#

Sims highest for me atm as well lul

#

Only 2k tho so fuck it

round harbor
#

What is the butthurt about. I'm curious

lone junco
#

he figured me out. I make up about 50% of my "advice" 80% of the time. And Im just heroic scrub, so I should just stfu. something along that line.

civic palm
#

LOGS OR GTFO

#

Mythic only please apply.

#

All other knowledge or experience is useless and should go fucking die in a fire.

#

^^ THIS IS SARCASM ^^

#

There, clearly labeled.

hoary copper
#

Obviously we should just meme and leave advice to the experts

#

/s

fervent beacon
#

Not 100% sarcasm at all

#

πŸ€”

strange python
#

im here to meme and play bleed

civic palm
#

Hey if you wanna copy/paste that without the sarcasm those are your words, not mine.

strange python
#

wait thats the same thing

prime void
#

@manic vigil what does the sim look like ?

lone junco
#

the experts lol

keen inlet
#

Advice is relative to the person giving it and the person receiving it

#

I can't stop y'all from measuring eggplantjob but if you want to waste your time doing so be my guest

civic palm
#

Yeah some people are incapable of giving advice, at all.

manic vigil
#

@prime void pepethink

#

It's blue

lone junco
#

I get feedback from people regarding my feedback. overall positive. Every once and a while Loktark or Fuu will be like

solid nova
#

Ff

lone junco
#

(I hate him so much, but it is a fantastic gif)

quick talon
#

This 2set is pgood

keen inlet
#

Since the creation of class discords there's been this perpetual attitude that mythic parsers with perfect play are the only ones qualified to mod or give advice

When half of the "advice" requested is just clarification of something in the guide anyway.

There is nothing new under the sun

civic palm
#

There's also way too much fucking bias towards some websites being entirely wrong, all of the time.

#

When that's just a shit perspective.

#

and useless.

manic vigil
#

I dislike that attitude as well @keen inlet tbh

strange python
#

mythic parses are skewed moreso than heroic, prove me wrong

civic palm
#

How about this...

lone junco
#

skewed how

civic palm
#

There are not enough parses in Mythic for them to matter :3

strange python
#

private logs

civic palm
#

But that's a lie because it's so fucking easy.

lone junco
#

Skewness

civic palm
#

The issue with private logs is that they don't ever change anything.

lone junco
#

and there arent enough to matter.

civic palm
#

You might lose some ranks but nothing about the parses changes.

lone junco
#

statistically

civic palm
#

There is not some private ninja doing something magical.

strange python
#

think of it this way. if all of the stacked dogs logs were private

#

logs wouldnt be accurate to the best parses

lone junco
#

like all melee Tich. we get it

keen inlet
#

@manic vigil It's amazing how telling people I'm (relative) garbage and a chat babysitter, not world first raider, seems to diffuse that critique quickly

lone junco
#

such is progression racing shenannegains.

civic palm
#

Progression parses are also basically useless outside of looking at them for their context.

lone junco
#

log replay is really cool to see. and if I were racing progression, I wouldnt want anyone to see our shit either

manic vigil
#

@keen inlet you really are a babysitter, aren't you. Sad but true kek

echo estuary
#

so have we identified Richard's guild yet?

civic palm
#

Worst babysitter... ever...

strange python
#

a lot of people have private logs even still

keen inlet
#

I prefer to think of myself as an Anti-Bully Avenger

#

and/or defender of the casual crew

lone junco
#

@echo estuary server, and rogue, but thats it. let him stab in peace.

strange python
#

the hero we need

#

but not the one we deserve

keen inlet
#

I'm here to give representation to the "deplorable 95% of wow players"

hoary copper
#

Captain Casual

strange python
#

don for pres

civic palm
#

Someone already has that face, and it ain't Donny.

desert karma
#

@keen inlet vs @shrewd oriole

echo estuary
#

in elitist's defence, however, that 95% is the reason the game is getting progressively worse every expansion 😦

manic vigil
#

People in here get super elitist quite frequently. And seem to have lost even the capability to think of a different gaming environment

#

Yes im talking about Tom primarily

desert karma
#

I was called a shitter today because I asked if that elitist dude had a spot for me in his HC group

manic vigil
keen inlet
#

@echo estuary Disagree, strongly.

strange python
#

doing only heroic sounds good asfuck

keen inlet
#

Casual-blaming is an easy strawman

hoary copper
#

With Tom banned its a little less elitest at least

quick talon
#

Tom's a good boy

#

dont bully

manic vigil
#

Why did he do that anyway

#

Stupid Tom REEE

#

He's fucked now

desert karma
#

Gaming elitists have small willies

strange python
#

our long haired prince notter is typing

hoary copper
#

Some people use their brains for good, and some don't Uni

manic vigil
#

@desert karma you got data to back that up

hoary copper
#

Notter has long hair?

gaunt moat
#

yes

zealous dew
#

lol what did he do now

hoary copper
#

Don't you mean fluffy? Are you a long haired fluffy bunny?

strange python
#

im just hoping he streams one day so we can se it

#

see*

civic palm
#

What did who do? Tom? He opened his mouth.

desert karma
#

@manic vigil I have never seen an elitists willy but I assume its small

echo estuary
#

well its not a strawman, since casuals dictate direction of the game

civic palm
#

Bunnies with long hair are... weird.

keen inlet
#

@echo estuary They don't, though

civic palm
#

Casuals dictated the direction of Normal and Heroic.

#

Wanna tell us how the fuck Casuals made KJ?

#

or Avatar?

keen inlet
#

Historically WoW's game design has been driven by the more elite players--they themselves being elite ex-Everquest-"raiders"

civic palm
#

or Mistress?

#

or Star Augur?

gaunt moat
#

!unmute @shrewd oriole

civic palm
#

etc.

strange python
#

can we at least all agree that the only hard bosses this tier are the last 2

chrome tuskBOT
#

Tom#6911 (87542091978141696) is now unmuted! THUMBSUP6

desert karma
#

Hardest raid boss ever is KJ on lfr

civic palm
#

That fucking number.

#

What is that number...

echo estuary
#

the turning point past the player peak and popularity was end of wotlk/beginning of cata

zealous dew
#

SSN

hoary copper
#

I pugged HKJ, that...wasnt fun

civic palm
#

That's some SSN from 3017.

manic vigil
#

Freedom for Tom? After the good old dodgeroo? bigWOW

echo estuary
#

this is when blizzard started gradually to cater to casuals

lone junco
#

Toms not banned. He mad another discord account to get around his mute and his other account got πŸ”¨ Tom is fine

keen inlet
#

@echo estuary I would argue that WOTLK was one of the most casual-friendly periods to date, and it was also the era of highest subs

civic palm
#

Blizzard was casual from Day 1...

manic vigil
#

Notter the merciful! Long may he reign

lone junco
#

@echo estuary Bell curve pays for the content. they get the cater.

#

any other rationalization is just silly

echo estuary
#

of course, thus the reasoning

desert karma
#

They should make it a requirement to join a guild so that this pug nonsense can cease to exist

echo estuary
#

casuals dictate the game

civic palm
#

Pet Battles for Mythic only.

keen inlet
#

Okay, memes aside though...I would like to hear how the game, at least prior to the ridiculousness that is TF, caters/ed to casuals without hardcores benefitting

lone junco
#

i mean, it's probably better than the game you made. (generalized statement taking the side of the devs over complaints)

civic palm
#

Yeah but you have to state which part of the game they dictate, cause it ain't the hard stuff.

lean hill
#

Casuals couldn't do anything early on

strange python
#

I would say that casuals only dictate minute parts of the game, they do not dictate the pace of the game

lean hill
#

They struggle with normal now, 40 man raids? Yea right

civic palm
#

I will say that a LOT of the overtuned stuff this expansion has been from the dev team not communicating internally.

keen inlet
#

"Casual" is also a massive, and misleading, term

strange python
#

its gotten to the point of in this expac that we have arbitrary grinds to stop the top 1% from completing eveything

lone junco
#

carrots stretch out the content

civic palm
#

Casual goes the entire way to Mythic Raiding > _>

keen inlet
#

How are we defining casual vs hardcore? Is it raid kills? Is it playtime? Is it pvp skill?

lean hill
#

Casual will have different meaning depending on where you sit in the gaming skill heirarchy lol

lone junco
#

gaming skill?

strange python
#

id consider myself casual at 6/11m

civic palm
#

2 day guild? Casual.

lone junco
#

nah. time investment.

echo estuary
#

if casuals think the game is too hard (i.e too many buttons to press for instance) Blizzard will always prioritze the casual player. However this was not the case up until cata

keen inlet
#

Because I've heard some (mythic raiders) argue that hardcore is 3+ hours a day playing any content

desert karma
#

I am considered a casual even though been playing my rogue all day, everyday since I started just because I dont have the guild opportunities to get gear and achievements etc.

strange python
#

2 day weekend guild

#

now thats casual

keen inlet
#

but in an age when you can buy most raidboss kills, what does a kill even mean?

#

Etc.

civic palm
#

The Pruning didn't come from there being too many buttons making it difficult to play, it came from there being too many buttons that didn't do much to differentiate themselves from each other.

keen inlet
#

If we're going to limit it to wiping on Argus, that's gonna be < 1% lol

#

and a lot of hardcores just became casual

#

etc.

echo estuary
#

until cata Blizzard decided for themselves, because they knew the optimal route.

keen inlet
#

It's an arbitrary and useless term

turbid harbor
#

group therapy are super casual

strange python
#

i would say that there are people who only do normal/hc and arent casual

turbid harbor
#

because they are 2 day weekend

#

??

civic palm
#

Honestly if you clear Heroic Week 1 you are probably not that casual.

rose mirage
#

@lone junco honestly, I just forgot to switch it when I was swapping talents to bleed that night

turbid harbor
#

i see casual as having a group of people that just sign up to whatever raids they feel like

#

like you'll get people just take a couple weeks off

keen inlet
#

The pruning of talents came because there were so many pointless/passive boring talents.
The pruning of skills came because there were a ton of buttons you almost never used.

They took that too far, imo, but there's still a lot of games out there that aren't called "casual" but have fewer buttons even still to press

lean hill
#

I think "casuals" play the game but don't put effort in to understand the game. If you haven't looked up a guide or BiS list you are probably casual

turbid harbor
#

during "progress"

desert karma
#

I have yet to get curve on my rogue yet Im not as bad as the typical lfr player, so I dont understand these definite terms of casual and hardcore

keen inlet
#

And if we're gonna argue that, then I want every DH fan/main to stand here and say; "My class is casual and I'm a casual."

strange python
#

i feel like on coven vigor might be better

civic palm
#

Button Count has nothing to do with how difficult something is, that's entirely on the mechanics design side.

shrewd oriole
#

@hoary copper chat is back to being elitist

civic palm
#

Can have four buttons and compelling gameplay.

Is over.

Useless.

zealous dew

rip

strange python
#

hoping it has a mass trait

echo estuary
#

my biggest issues that were directly attributed to casual QQ are: #1 homogenization -- every class can do everything. 2# pruning. You can disguise this by euphemisms such as "bloat", "class fantasy" and what not, but when it comes to it, this is just purely to decrease the skill gap, artificially. This is a huge detriment to the game.

strange python
#

it wont

zealous dew
#

PK CoS and TB trait inc

keen inlet
#

The majority of pruning didn't affect rotations/priority, though

#

Had nothing to do with skillcap.

strange python
#

i would argue that more buttons doesnt mean anything is harder

turbid harbor
#

if your rotation consists of 40 buttons

strange python
#

though no classes are really hard at all

turbid harbor
#

it is going to be more complex than 4

sinful tapir
#

Zolbar that depends

#

Look at jobs in xiv

echo estuary
#

@copper saffronbory but they were

#

and this is the whole point

shrewd oriole
#

@gusty kestrel there's a new app

#

poggers

sinful tapir
#

They have a lot of buttons but you mostly press them in the same order

#

every single time

keen inlet
#

I didn't think any of the specs were hard?

strange python
#

demo lock has like 23 things to press but its not hard just annoying

keen inlet
#

idk.

shrewd oriole
#

nah

#

got free'd

turbid harbor
#

you mostly press buttons in the same order regardless of how many buttons though?

shrewd oriole
#

rightfully so

spare cloud
#

I would

#

but I have raid myself

#

we can watch each other

strange python
#

but also from an encounter design standpoint, pruned classes are easier to tune for

shrewd oriole

I'll watch u tisumi

FULL 985 LET'S GOOOOOOO

just base mythic gear πŸ˜ƒ

ive seen people as high as 220, but most taper back to crit inclusion

I have mastery in every single one of my items and I'm at 19k

Mastery meh

So.

shrewd oriole

226% mastery 30% crit

220%... wtf xD

I can go higher tho

lone junco

50/135 is my bae

Is it just me or after ~205% mastery is crit gaining on mastery?

lone junco

crit gains.

shrewd oriole

are you wearing shoulders?

manic vigil

Crit just feels great

shrewd oriole

my crit is still lower than mastery

30% crit is about enough for shoulders tbh

Why is that I wonder

shrewd oriole

most youtube content for rogues

Prydaz has a lot of stats. And it might be better if some crazy bad neck and really good boot off piece. But it's prob not

shrewd oriole

in fact I'll say all

However @desert karma , The sims are written to factor them into your rotation w/ current stats and theior effectiveness

question. How does pyrdaz actuallyhelp in M+. The shield always wears off before the actual mechanic comes

lone junco
#

2.5% isnt that bad given the bubble

shrewd oriole
#

it's an 80k dps loss (for me) will probably be less for you

hushed urchin
#

You item level would have to be < 850 for Prydaz to be better than boots, where any stat stick is pretty much more value

shrewd oriole
#

#

I dont have the wrists though 😒

shrewd oriole

yeah

it's a 3% loss over boots

the "top gear" is boots

What leggos cutie?

desert karma
#

why does it show the boots as a purple item? πŸ˜›

shrewd oriole
#

@prime void he has shoulders prydaz boots and is running shoulders boots

lone junco

Shoulder boots will be more dps than prydaz. if you want to take a dps loss and wear the bubble, thats up to you

But some bosses do have ticking aoe. And wear down the prydaz shield

yeahΒ΄

they do

and some dont

lone junco

I swapped to a mptb build cause exang would rip over boot loss

You have to pray in that scenario

Did you have vendetta up for each phae?:0

Last boss in dht, feed on weak + bolt a prydaz shield will save you from getting combod

Pray. Alright. Thought there was an actual trick

desert karma

So whats the different between using wrists vs boots?

shrewd oriole
#

@civic palm is that full 985 gear or what?

civic palm
#

Full 985, max mastery base.

shrewd oriole
#

using 4p ye?

civic palm
#

Yeah not dropping tier, could get more from there.

#

mmm

shrewd night
#

@desert karma No reason to mention any difference. If you're not wearing wrists, and you got them, youre doing it wrong.

shrewd oriole

how do u have so much haste

are you wearing gimped haste rings or smth

Hey looking for some sin mythic coven advice. For optimal dps do yous maintain 100% or as close to uptime on rupture for both adds?
Also do you aim to maintain deadly poison 100%on both adds with poison knife?

lone junco
#

pk? oh man. I only pk when Im standing in a safe space and cant reach a target

#

and thats just for lols.

gilded kayak
#

Yeah i just read that its worth to maintain the 100% uptime of the deadly, so treat it more as a single target fight?

civic palm
#

If the tanks can get them close enough you can FoKem ye?

jovial kite
gilded kayak
#

Hmmm possibly ill have to check, we do run them relatively close

civic palm
#

IIRC the distance for the buff is 20y, so it's close.

lone junco
#

100% rupture uptime.

civic palm
#

Reeeally close.

lone junco
#

looks like their strat has a bunch of fok

civic palm
#

If they are just outside of 20y you can step out ~2y for generating.

lone junco
#

looks like a lot of rupture

civic palm
#

Also you can check the replay on that log and see how the guy is moving.

#

or if he is at all.

gilded kayak

Ahkk cheers ill do that forsure. Was hard to tell i felt like moving to apply 2nd ruptures was a dps loss

But i could be wrong

hes playing bracer boot for sure.

Hes running subterfuge i guess

civic palm

2pT20

#

only way that makes sense to keep Garrote up

#

on 2 targets.

and Subterfuge of course.

This strat is entirely predicated on the tanks being able to keep the boss that close though.

ofc. that is really good positioning

Recommendations for Kingaroth mythic, lego sets/talents?

lone junco

all recommendations are prob Shoulder Bracer. tb kb open, hold vanish and vedetta for the adds.

then tbkb between on boss

#

it feels silly holding vendetta for like 40 sec, but it is best.

rose sapphire
#

Trying that this pull

lone junco
#

good logs have like 8M peak dongers on each of the 4 adds

civic palm

Alright I need 960 crit/mas jewelry and 930 t20 shoulders/gloves to make boots/bracers work > _>

#

Yeah 8M is fine πŸ‘

#

Same gear gets EX within 20k > _>" hmmm

lone junco
#

for the life of me, i cant sim my way to higher dps than my exang. Maybe a funny relic blend might work. but im pretty happy with the rotation. very simple.

civic palm
#

Yeah I wanna change but it requires massive off-pieces or 930+ shoulders/gloves.

#

Which isn't a crazy ask.

#

I miiiiight just go Mastery nuts and w/e

lone junco
#

If i were to speculate, I think the Ep poison builds will be easier to gear at this point. 2p20 is a fixed point. Not about to go backwards and farm/progress avatar

#

EPTB can be 0p4p bracer boot or Insig boot.

@gaunt moat we dont. we have like 16-18 people. just gonna pack it up. doing alt runs now.

oh. usually heroic guilds have more than 20 people in the raid i thought

civic palm
#

Yeah ~100k loss.

wise frigate
#

Being the #3 horde guild on a dead realm when the other 2 guilds are 11/11 and 9/11M, nobody joins us.

civic palm

Nah a lot of heroic guilds wanna aim for ~20 people.

You bleed through A LOT of people.

No. We're lucky to have more than 15 in our normal alt runs.

hey fellas how viable is the bleed build ? i sim 5k lower then standart shoulder+bracer poision build

Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

lone junco
#

@Dr.Runsen#2331 if you never got 2p20, just stick to the 4p21 and use offpieces.

wise frigate
#

That reminds me. If I try and app to a mythic guild at some point I should probably NOT have my Details nickname set to White Power when I'm on a toon named Whiteperson.

lone junco
#

Bleed can play with no 2p20, its just got a lag time to refresh garrote after exang drops it.

nocturne gate
#

the prob is i have for shoulder+bracer pretty nice relics and for bleed i have to change 2 for the tripple ma

lone junco
#

bleed is 3vend, bracer boot. 2p4p. if you dont have those things, then you will delay exang until vend catches up. then you will have a lag to refresh garrote. then exang will infact be a really shitty build.

nocturne gate
#

im a friend of offmeta builds but i dont know if i should risk to replace the relics just for testing πŸ˜„

lone junco
#
