Probably i duinno, I only tanked to get 3k as Fury is not getting invites
But i do like prot
Don't @ me but I'm pretty sure that tracker is bs.
Why tf did nobody tell me fire mage is actually fun
I’m mashing my buttons, my screen is lighting up, I’m doing damage
Is it hard to play
Did someone tell you it wasn’t fun
I don’t think so but I’ve also only done 2 keys
Looks fun
Yes I told myself because I don’t like casters
I did 50k overall at 380 so
How fast does combustion actually come back
Feeling dece
There’s no CDR with the talents I’m running I don’t think
I don’t like cast bars but you spend so much time throwing instant casts
Only chads play melee
You’re just getting free mini combusts with sun king
Oh I see
At least now you do, too many hard casts last patch
Range/Healers are for weaklings
Which is the only time you hard cast
Fire mage rn is way more enjoyable than it's been in quite some time
Ya I tried it in SL and hated it
It’s very fast paced and rewarding
i mean kinda hard to beat masterful corruption fire mage
Without being overly punishing
Rune of Power gone is probably the single greatest class change made to a class this expansion
but then again thats the last time i played fire mage lmaooo
I literally did a tiny tiny amount of fire in SL, hated it, then never touched it until now
Last time I play fire mage was cataclysm has it changed since then
I’ve never played a lot of mage in general, just a tiny bit of frost
lmao that response
Flamestrike giving heating up makes it so much smoother
Ya you’re just really flowing from one ability to the next
I need to manage my Phoenix flame/fire blast charges better tho
META for a 20 BH
And the content I’m doing is too low to really get a good grasp on scorch
Where the holy paladin

I’m shocked you got pugs to actually join a group with a pwarr/priest healer
scorch hasnt changed though, still guaranteed crit at execute range
Scorch is just for execute/last ditch after all charges are gone
iirc
U say that as if I ever used it
Before
When I played fire I was super new to wow trying out different classes
Replace fb with scorch in execute outside of combust and you’re perma mobile
Did you ever read the sub rogue guide in Shadowlands?
It was literally just one gigantic wall of text with no formatting
No I just used jpc streams to learn rogue like a chad
I'm just bumping tank score, I reckon i could get top 20 in realm next week
I read the whole thing and was like well, I learned nothing from that
Also why tf would you need a wall of text for shadowlands sun it was brainless
I know!
Literally a 2 button rotation in both aoe and st
And you just slam your CDs together whenever you can
Like it's harder now than it was then (not that it's particularly complicated now even but definitely more than SL)
It’s way harder than it was in SL
because in sl it was one of the easiest specs in the game lmao
I miss s2 outlaw tho
Yeah, tbf the AoE is still basically just as simple, albeit with a couple extra buttons to press
Give me bone spike back
Bone spike can burn in hell
My favorite outlaw so far is kyr shadowdust
Venthyr was ok, kyrian was cringe, night fae did literally nothing outside of PvP
But I do like the ambush/fan the hammer playstyle rightn ow as well
what dis
Excel
Yeah night fae was and is super lame
Flag wasn't too bad; I played it for a lot of SL because my group didn't have a venthyr
It was good just not interesting
It sucked ass pre-rework though
Oh actually I take it back
My favorite outlaw playstyle was venthyr blunderbuss
Just gatting nerds
It plays a lot like blunderbuss now, except you use ambush instead of sinister strike 99% of the time
Does it still go BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG
yep
They actually made grand melee not complete shit too
Though it does mean you have to press slice and dice now instead of ending the dungeon w/ 20 mins of it
Wait was night far the same across all classes? Cuz that shit was the bomb for my hunter, just non stop zoomies
bringing slice and dice back to outlaw was the worst thing they ever did don’t @ me
lol
i mean tbf i did enjoy fishing for crit buff
but i can see why people hated it
just tweak rtb, don’t just throw another dull timer on top of it
yeah
but I know rogue love number
MEta?
you still fish for buffs. It's just different buffs
yeah i know
No covenant was the same across all classes
Reroll logic rn is keep single Skull and Crossbones, reroll all other singles, and keep all doubles
Yeah I am, sorry dude
its ok
tf you guys want my ass shadow priest for anyway
your ass sp does better than most pugs
wewlad keyz
Mage left
Keys own
Act 3
Is that actually indicative of a fixable problem or just the natural turn of events when pushing anything to its limits?
I ask 8 beers deep waiting for my third connecting flight
I think it'll actually indicate a problem, yes. Druid and Pally will consistently be in the top 5.
And giving it (Druid) a buff this expansion only makes it worse.
We'll see though, i could be entirely wrong
I just wrote out many paragraphs to basically say I really don't know how to fix it in the end
I'm wondering how the general perception of prot war is after the last round of tgp, I like the idea of niche class roles for dungeons
Generally enforcing those ideas dev side makes for a poorer raiding experience, still a neat thing to play around with
"SR op, nerf it"
People will not be happy about it
Anytime SR does anything relevant everybody hates it
Nelth's Lair
Not that you'll see that bc you have me blocked. 
Anytime warriors show up in anything involving casters they get confused and fixate on literally anything else out of place
Yeah haste generally sims lower than crit and vers unless you have no haste
I mean i like crit but im at a chill 25% with 27% parry and im fine with that, I like haste, Prot go BRRRRRRRRR
But i am tempted to swap beacon with this
Is it trolling if i do?
Unless you're a god gamer
why do they even put it in the game
Just kiting mobs like Beethoven leads an orchestra
if thats really what the effect is
hmm
swap beacon??? is this some bit that i don't know about?
that effect is for like, it has a 30 second cd
gz
@sick sentinel guess it does exist
hmmmm
I just feel vulnerble casting beacon
So you'd rather use a trinket that you can bomb yourself with?
Yes
LOL
Tbh i want the trinket from VP
Is it actually any good ?
yeah but then ur prot loot
thats like switching to defensive stance, never want to have to do it
Is it bad i always stay in def stance?
i just know i have to take another spark to balance out the other one i took
it's aite, you just have to remember it's not main stat, so it looks better than it is.
I can't imagine not being in defensive stance in high keys
sometimes i use it in the keys im running, but pretty rarely
Oh its vers meh
only if im taking loads of dmg or have to go get more mobs, and cant really do much else beside TC + W
I got bad memories from CoS not being in def stance which is why i just stay in it, Boss fights is different
And if im doing 16s then yeah i dont cause dmg
wat
currently in the mega im doing 2nd and final with like 90% defensive stance up
75%
ANY FART FARMERS IN CHAT?
Bruh S4 SL was wild
there's a class that needs to be removed from M+ though and it's not the two i mentioned earlier
bdk duh
wait like, you want to use that instead of beacon?
That looks prety dope
the flying races?
idk if im not understanding something but sometimes i feel like im doing them pretty flawlessly, no bumps, all vigor used, etc.. and im behind by 7sec
I will not FALTER
Manuel - Gas Gas Gas
I do not own this song or image. It is only used for non-profit purposes under the Fair Use Act of 1976.
is there not a tdirect port from zuldazar to kul tiras
there is but it's not in the portal room
you go south to the docks and talk to the boat captain where nathanos is

is it up the elevator
the docks are not up an elevator no
and they take you to where the horde kultiras warfront area is (more or less in front of freehold)
i forget why, but there is a reason to elevator
they're at the docks
man fk the entire priest class
we've had 4 straight seasons of a priest spec being meta.
fk pi, fk md
they should delete paladins from the game
idk bruh
i think we need +30% hp -20% damage taken and 5 more utility spells that are baseline imo
should fix the problem
oh and block 360 because im retarded and i sometime have my back to mobs when pulling multiple groups dont @ me with "git gud"
git gud
Look at this loser talkin' shit in skyhold as he ignores b.net messages
wild
hey i never die to it but holy shit is it scary when i see my hp bar dip
i figure warriors have it worse cause all other tanks dont have their active mitigation fail when facing their back but yeah, im starting to get more cautious lmao
yes drayen, that's because it's hard to die to anything in an 11
im doing 19-20
im taking like 5 swings with my back max to be honest
still enough to go from 100 to 30%
Flexxing about taking it from behind like piper perri
sl s4 was a vibe
oh yeah
df s1 and sl s2 were pretty damn balanced
ye
frost mage was pretty nutty in s2 but other than that nothing was like clearly op
tried 18 freehold, missed timer by 1 minute
i forgot how much i love bolster giant rock throwing ogres
got me twice and only rreal reason failed
So Warr and DH have basically been paying for the sins of BfA for the last 5/6 seasons.
Brooo
WTF is Arms 4p?
PTR footage from 29th March 2023. This 4 set really needs a serious buff or rework.
thats super clidk bait title
How is it bait?
it doesnt look to be wrong
Are you saying it's bait because it's accurate?
just, the title and way its presented , like some over done peank video abit feels like
you're literally making zero sense rn
The title is "Arms 4p sucks" then he goes and shows how it sucks even in the most optimal situation.
Nothing is overdone.
that was on ptr
Nothing is wrong
its been made to be better
Yes I know
Does he ever tho?
The video is from Mar, but that doesn't make the video inaccurate or clickbait for when it was released
It's part of why I love the guy tbh
why
the conyents within are not immediately understandabls for me and an explanation isnt showed onky a reaction
if u crit use fireblast and then pyro/flamestrike
if u dont have fireblast ise phoenix flames
noob
bro i don't even play warrior and i know what SLAM is
Does that mean that every video you don't understand is clickbait?
Like what
well sure bur how do i anchir 45k dmg from that ability to anywhere oh the spectrum of how good/bad that is
Are you not paying attention to the damage from his other abilities?
never change yogi
mostly mean aoe
fire mage st is like exact same as it was in SL
except you gained alexstrazsa's fury on top of having flame on
and SKB is less aids
aoe is the same as st just replace pyro with flamestrike
very easy
ye
as far as im aware
but how get 2nd hot streak proc 😡
kamgq can’t read
smh
ok that makes sense
I still gotta figure out a better keybind for ice floes though
this shit sucks
i should probably actually read the guide
just take shimmer ice flow is for good players
LMFAO
Lol
yes
Kangaposting
go holy priest and do a 24
go on dn and dn dn
whats go
it woupd be too much draw probably, but i would want it to render a 300x200 pixek video of how tge talent does somwthing like sc2

but
yogi do u have a history of drug use
i am not re-entering VP that place has traumatized me
i do understand tech limits
then just ez 24s next week

this is toxic btw, my guild even made this emote name :kanga:

that was me yesterday
Accurate
Whoa Yogi, I thought drug talk was off limits

Kanga we love you
its back on the menu tonite special
ofc
wait is it
Well in that case I can tell from your botched ass typing tonight you're either drunk or on drugs
who? me?
gamer engliah
yogi slams a corona for every +17 freehold
based tbh i respect people who don't do any substances
I mean I do actually drink sometimes
drugs are fun though
But I’ve never been drunk
Like 1-2 drinks and almost never only when coworkers wanna go out on work trips
That's like drinking decaf coffee or sex without an orgasm
wrong
Not at all tbh
all i meant is 8 dont wish t9 discusd if and when i do or share details or enccourage
i had about a liter of vodka a couple weeks ago
Beer tastes like vomit, can't change my mind
nah dude i get drinking for the taste but also u literally cant be straight edge if you drink socially lmao
based
Although you know what owns?
coffee
my english on here has always been dog shit
thats like me saying i don't smoke because i only smoke when i get blasted
Mead
if u ever drink beer ur just weird
Mead owns
LMAO
who the FUCK drinks mead
One of the most ridiculous things ever said by a human being
You should try it
is that beer is "an acquired taste"
yeah bro lemme drink this soy filled carbonated trash
Like, why the fuck would I keep drinking it if I didn't like the taste
absolutely disgusting
anything thats an acquired taste is automatically bad
I'm an acquired taste
badge
So you're not wrong
coffee says hello
i got in trouble for it before, so thats fine, fuck it, can leave it at the door
git gud
coffee is so bad
I hate most alcohol though (and only drink once in a blue moon, been a couple years since my last drink at this point)
hell no
my intention is to not engage
ive never had caffeiene
snort coke
Black coffee tastes like someone boiled pennies
be a rebel
gum coke
yo actually the worst tasting substance is fuckibg mushrooms
And here is where I leave you
any and all mushrooms
Mushrooms are wonderful
they may feel wonderful but the consumption is awful
Can’t comment on the other type no experience
Yo Choco you never done mushrooms?
No I mean food mushrooms, not drug mushrooms
Yep
Not all mushrooms taste the same sir
And they both taste like ass
i love black olives
Same
fuck you
Lol
LMFAO
Regular olives are fine but I only like them in certain context
See told you
like in a salad or something
yogi are you ok
i hate tnat guy somu h
hes anasshole
yes lol
thatswhat he is aint he
Speaking of rock throwing dudes
yayo
Can tanks please stop moving out of the throw rock the dudes in Uldaman do
pretty please
it does 0 damage and it's annoying
Well if you bolster a pelter enough, or the mobs in Uldaman, they'd be giant rock throwing dudes
Sorry I'm back, I too love black olives
we arent
Black oLives Matter 
all olves matter
i was shitting on the taste of mushrooms and then rhey brought up like “next ur gonna day olives are bad”
and we unanimously agree olives own
oh good
yeah idk about mushrooms, i'm thinking about it and mostly what i like about mushrooms is they soak up whatever you're cooking them in really good
so like if you have garlic butter mushrooms, do you really like the mushrooms, or is it just that garlic butter is really good
I just love the nutty flavor of mushrooms
The huh
sad times
id rather drink everclear than eat mushrooms natty
God damn
When I was a kid, I did shots of everclear without even making a face because my mom was a bad parent
Lol
i thought itwould go off in time and finish him off
i have eaten just a whole package of raw button mushrooms before. my power was out and i was starving
it was not good
Had a NYE party one year, did 15 shots of jack and cuervo gold on an empty stomach
ive only had real everclear once
Spent the night in the bathtub
california everclear is only like 65% or some shit
Have only been drunk like 5 times since then
pussy ass alcohol laws
Y'know, I would say you HAVE TO try sriracha, but i think that overhypes it way too much. i mean it's just a chili garlic sauce
and that was almost 18 years ago
it's just that chili garlic sauce is really good
and it goes on p much anything savory
atleast tou werent outside
or in a different dtate
It was terrible tbh. Dry heaving all night once the alcohol was gone
I probably should've gone to the hospital, but like I said, bad parent lol
atleast u live
yeah, I made it through
im a big mf so i have to drink a lot to get drunk
My older sister stuck me in the dryer the first time I got drunk
more importantly, she then turned the dryer on
I can't drink an alcoholic beverage if I can taste the alcohol, and for some reason, everyone tries to say "it doesn't even taste like alcohol!" about every alcohol that it's easy to taste the alcohol in
ppl like to just make shit up
And don't even get me started on how the actual fuck anyone can drink a Four Loko
something will be like 20% abv and someone will say they cant taste it
Mead you basically don’t notice it
Super smooth
bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I've never had mead. I have a friend who makes it but that's the extent of my relationship with it lol
He's won some competitions with his so I guess it must be pretty good
It do be weird though cuz you’re drinking fermented honey
Just gimme water
I remember trying this random beer in a grocery store because I liked the name of it and it was probably the worst thing I've ever tasted. It was called 'Arrogant Motherfucker'
I actually really like moscato wine
It's the only kind I've ever tried that wasn't god-awful
so does dn
What's dn?
dlet nfly
So... many... birds!
damn bro looking in this chat makes my head hurt
why
Could you imagine something sitting in this chat for 3 days. lol
answers are kinda
awful
how does this happen
i need 5 more keybinds on fire, and i have like 4 empty keybind slots on frost
these specs are stupid
why is the meta comp called exodia?
Mostly because 89% of all title holders are running it. It's by far the strongest collection of 5 specs we've ever had at the same time in one season.
2600 rated mage telling me to not pull big in BH
at least the feral said good things
mage said i was a "baby and a warrior"
Make sure you don't pull big in the big pull dungeon
i didnt even tell him anything
after he said it was like, "im not entirely sure what you meant by that"
i think he meant dwarf
might have google translated lol
whew im finally done with vault keys
time to have a day off tomorrow and play some more TotK
i got yelled at for pulling big in BH for the first two cages
we finished the run and dude said i was as horrible tank... he did 10k less dps than me and died 10 times to avoidable stuff
i mean its a 23, im obviously gonna pull big in the pull big section lmao
thats when he said it
not at the start
but at the run to tree boss

Is there a list of boss spells you can reflect?

did
found. ty
By any chance, does anybody know of a mythic+ tips and trick website or community?
I'm pondering starting a website or something to share those kind of stuff
That's the kind of thing I'm trying to turn MPF into but I gotta get the owner convinced 😅
Maybe you won't need to then ;)
I am old now 
Same.
@warm plinth happy bday!!!!
Thanks man
happy birthday!
Still no class tuning to nerf mage Aug sp
I did a +20 as Arms cause I got invited and it was fucking easy and the tank was about as good as I am I think, looking at his logs they're similar to mine, but he baby-pulled.
I should stop slacking and get 2500 this season already
I realised the difficulty with tanking isn't actually doing your job as a tank
it's finding DPS players that aren't cheeks
Tanking is braindead ez, you just have 4 others who you have to rely on
(My exp at least)
Happy birthday GHASH! I forgot your birthday is a day after mine.
Happy bday 🎂 🥳
Thanks
Happy belated birthday
Happy birthday!!!
Thank you
Yeah pretty much. I can't think of many keys I've ruined by being trash (there's for sure a few). Most of the time it's people buttpulling, dying repeatedly, doing 50k dps, etc.
Like this season I completely bricked a nelth lair key because of lack of experience on the final boss
But it also didn't help that the 442 Feral Druid was doing 70k overall
You also have to rely on their CC, most people throw CC at anything, interrupt unimportant casts, stand in bad spots ect. Healers also need to be aware and know how to play their class, I see a lot of them hardcasting one ability "mana". Dps need to use defs properly too, purge, dispells, ect. For sure a tank can carry a group but your job is to pull big and get slapped (ofc more) but its 5 man so its group effort, some dps just wanna dps and do nothing else. Some healers want to just hard cast and for sure some tanks don't care. It's all about playing smartly
And as a team
I very rarely feel like healers are a problem, but it could just be because I'm a tank
1 person can ruin whole group
It's usually a dps player making me mald
I use ALL my CCs on a pack and then the one important cast that I can't cover just goes through because no one kicks or stuns
honestly I like having druids for their aoe kick, forgot the name of it
those players always seem to use it at good times
Or don't stun balls in hoi or use defs and they go "tank"
lol did a +17 HoI and this DK kept dying to the balls
think he died like 6 times before we got to the first boss
Eh I have bad history with druid heals
Tbh it's 50/50 with balls he should DS but also healer should help him. If he didn't use ams then kekw but they can't stun exactly without aphyx which most don't take
Yeah my friend was kinda healing poorly in that run ngl
Holy Priest just seems kinda weak tho ngl
He also refuses to install any kind of weak auras or non-default unit frames and such
pretty annoying
Well then 
He usually only got 2k rating in m+ seasons at most
last season I dragged him along to getting 2.5k and it was.. fine
but he has some issues I can't force him to fix
I mean some people just wanna play casually and that's fine can't force em
I'm effectively raid calling some mechanics on bosses in M+ because I know he'll just zone out and die to them if I don't lmao
Yeah I mean it's fine, but he's not bad at the game he just doesn't seem to want to take the step of improving his UI and tracking things beyond what's default lol
That's why I want hpriest buffs so I don't have to play two characters at once heh
Holy priest doesn't need buffs
It's fine from my experience
Check derails and tell me how many casts of prayer of mending and Holy words?
Because some play old 4 set with new set which is legit just hard casting flash heal
Yeah I've spoken to him about this
He casts the wrong things
Also my god I had a go at him because he didn't take a +20 ilvl weapon because "it's not the right stat priority"
+17 HoI, 30:15


I wish I had an ego
I'm just spitting facts dawg
So are his casts bad?
Yeah

I mean 65 PoM isn't worst i've seen
I had one who used it 3 times
I said to use it on CD and refresh stacks

But if your guy does not use any addons/WA then he won't be able to track correctly at all
Because I'm not a healer player, he basically dismisses my advice to him with some very situational nuance every time
I'm making him out to be an asshole but he's really not
It's just like, I want to enjoy the game more when I play with him in harder keys lmao
I don't play healer but I read enough/see enough/tried to play it
Let me find a holy priest log
He also doesn't dps either 
too busy hard casting flash heal
2k overall dps?
It's the kinda thing though where if I level my priest, learn how to heal and become somewhat moderately okay at it
holy...
Just play disc
I keep suggesting he try disc and he just goes on about how they ruined it back in cata or some shit
???
i mean all healers can do 10k dps if they use their basic damage spell and that only
I wasn't playing back then so idk anything about it
if i am not mistaken
Like, all my friends don't "tryhard" at all, but it feels awful when I want to give advice so we can actually enjoy the game more and it's just dismissed/ignored
Can't force people to play better, but they're the people I want to play with :(
Tbh seems like a lot use flash heal this is 25 ulda with a high rank holy but, PoM 107 casts (Bounces to players) But holy word serenity ect
But i mean flash heal isn't bad
But you can see the logs are completely different
Well my screenshot was from the casts tab
Like i said i do not play priest

unsolicited advice pogchamp skyhold strikes again
so in a full dungeon it's maybe healing my health bar (if it was ALL on me, which it isn't) maybe 2 or 3 times
What?
huh?
I dunno i just woke up
the dps part is insane to me
is it really?
I'm seeing holy do 30k dps
2k dps
most healers don't dps
Well
like idk why you're shocked
Tbf most tanks don't either
true
Happy Birthday!
20k dps raid tanks are mind blowing to me
Even with his "issues" in how he plays, the keys are generally easy as long as the DPS players aren't planking
Just wish he'd take my advice and install a WA to track his 4set and dps a little
Just let him play but if you wanna push maybe pug a heal
Had a BDK offtank doing 13k dps
How come?
The majority of playerbase is just playing for the sake of it.
20k dps is like.. hands off the keyboard tho
you'll be surprised
I feel like that's auto-attack only levels of dps
I agree and i do not judge, unless it's my guild in progress
it is not
I'll never understand why people are shocked that a majority of the playerbase doesn't give two shits about improving and being good.
They play video games to play video games
autoattack alone does not even close to 20k dps
And get away from the seriousness of life.
Jeah, if it's supposed to be a set of likeminded people with a similar goal then that's a whole other story.
Like I'm more shocked by the people that can't fathom that mindset than the people doing that damage
You shouldn't be joining high level keys or even heroic pugs with that mindset
imo
Luckily there are 3rd party sites which show how the person is performing so you can invite accordingly to your own standards.
I accept you don't want to take the game seriously (I think it's overstated how serious it is to just try a LITTLE though), but don't ruin other peoples time with it
Well this discord is here for people to ask questions/improve and such, I have pugged mainly for years and i accept there are people who play for fun it's a video game, I am not the best player but i do try when doing high level or in raid ect and I expect the same from people who are in that high level if they want to play high level, if they dont then it is what it is again video game,
what?
I'm just doing +16's / 17's atm for weekly and i 100% expect the DPS'ers / healers to be bad / casual at that level.
But luckily those are low enough keys so i can just faceroll carry them.

If i were to do 20+ keys then i'd expect people to put in some effort.
Yeah that's all i'm saying
But we all know they don't.

if i see 2k dps from healer in a 20 i start questioning things
I mean its normal in 20s for ppl to be bad now we are that late into the season
20 seems to be the "I'm doing high keys but i don't know what i'm doing!!!!!!" area.
And jakey is right with that statement
20s feel easier than 16s to me
knowing that a healer can do 10-15k dps with one-two damaging spells
That was only a +17 log
Just a video game at end of the day, As long as you are not toxic to said people and just go about your day then all good
but yeah idk
i am normally not saying anything to people unless they are rude first
then i start blasting
In one of the recent FH's i did this was the healers DPS breakdown for the whole dungeon:
Literally the whole dungeon.
The way I see it, if I start wishing the healer did more damage, then the DPS players were probably slacking

If i make mistake and someone points out some constructive criticism then all good, "you suck dog" then i unload
and still did more dps than my friend, shamans op
Shamans are meant to dps tho right for mana and such ?
🤷
I just know they do Lava Blasts and Flame Shocks
And things.
you can chain lighting as resto right?
I just want people to generally improve (if I know them) because putting in a little effort and getting better at the game makes it more fun
It's not THAT much effort to become like.. top 30%
A cursory understanding of what you're trying to do gets you there pretty much
I put no effort when i tanked echo btw and look what i got
That was some other Shaman.
ty 
to you
What if they don't care about that?
it's fun to YOU
Majority of people are running around doing dailies / low'ish m+ / mogs.
And having a blast.
Echo is weird, I was brain off reclearing it and got a 95 parse, 99 ilvl. After the kill I was like damn I prob parsed like 60
heroic tho so who cares
Yeah I got no problem with those players at all though
I'm more talking about my friends who want to get like 2500 rio with me
man this m+ season got bricked so hard with 10.1.5
2500 is what all 17s?
Honestly though only 5% of playerbase actually tries to play good
The other 95% have fun
And i can assure the 5% are sad irl
I'd say if you want to go for 2500, you should at least expect to put a little effort in
lol
2500 is not hard, takes a lil effort sure
It's not HARD but it's not like you can just get by by just playing like it's a +2
I'd say hardest as healer but aggain easiest as healer
Cause healers can get carried
2500 is top 15-17% now
I have had 2700-3100 healers who are bad
so
but then again could also be dps
WHo knows
This is probably going to sound elitist but I think people have this weird cognitive dissonance where they want to do good and get the cool seasonal rewards but putting effort in opens them up to being aware of the fact they're not very good, which feels bad. Easier to not try at all.
idk i feel bad for healers in lower keys, they're often the ones having to make up for bad play. In fact healing because easier the higher you get because eventually stuff just one shots you so you don't have to worry about healing mistakes because the person just flat out dies.
It's definitely the case with one of my friends who malds the moment he performs badly in a higher (relative) key to what he's used to
or they use them after they already took damage -_-
yeah
heck no i'm not using a health pot in an 11
gl finding people using their class personals in 11 nevemind hp pots
Yeah forcing my friend into higher keys made him aware that most of the time when people die it's not even his fault
Made him a lot more chill
The amount of time some clown stepped in a frontal and went "HEALER???" when in lower keys
and I'm just like
I just find it's bad practice to expect things from people, just vibe.
"bro he's just an idiot"
Still get that good old "Bad healer" after dying to a 1 shot.

fo sho
To judge people on RIO i go by Timed runs > Score > ilvl
When inviting
Other people go the other way around
I've found it's still a gamble
is 11's sure in 20+ i do expect things from people
I don't
Nowadays I literally just check their logs for an average of like 50 parses (for dps players)
As in, I'm not gonna go whine in a class discord about it for over an hour.
Yeah for sure but if someones 440 with 100+ timed runs and a 447 fully bis "blaster" with only 5 timed runs i pick the 440 guy
We go next.
Who's whining
I'm not saying anyone here specifically.
I'm saying in general.
If your ears are burning, that's not my fault.

I'm just a social human being 
There's also people at every skill level that just play the game to have fun. Natty talent carries a lot of people.
One of my friends quit because he was like "wow is too much effort now" and I was like I don't see it??? So I played unholy dk and I'm yeah I can see why he'd think that, I'd quit too if that was my main
honestly fuck udk
I rerolled warrior from UDK
Played udk? that spec feels fucking miserable
Not because roo much effort tho
frost is a click away
kek
Just warrior feels better in key's and raid
hmm... we gonna have to agree to disagree on this one.
And I feel better at it, more natural
Spamming frostbolt wasn't exactly a hard point in wow
I think WoW is definitely not the easiest it's ever been
It's just nostalgia, you were like 10 years old when you thought the game was hard
Best advice "Play what you enjoy"
Mechanically shit is so fucking complex now
Compare any modern wow content to anything pre-cata
i exclude everything before cataclysm
lol
but i did not say that which is my bad
Be careful of language my guy
Cata starts introducing the most bullshit gimmick mechanics in raids
and I honestly HATE final bosses of like most raids
Just excluding 1/3 of the game's life, sure. I guess.
it's fine for coordinated guilds of sweaty players but the complexity is way too much to have fun playing with randoms anymore
I think they should remove Normal/Heroic and just make it Normal, tone down the Complexity of final bosses
and keep Mythic the way it is
Tbh heroic raid feels like SL normal to me
If you exclude the 33% of parses above someone with 66 parses they have 100 parses. 🙂
And by "make it Normal" I mean somewhere around Heroic difficulty, just less complex
the jump from that mode to mythic will be too steep
but only 2 difficulties, Normal (or call it heroic idc) and Mythic
I hate this raid, SoD > Aberrus
👀

I like sark, I like zskarn, I like echo and that's it really
idk I think this has been the easiest raid to pug in quite some time.
That's probably why I don't like it
Heroic isn't a stepping stone into Mythic anyway, outside of gearing. People doing Mythic are good enough to just go straight into Mythic if they had the gear for it
I got like 200+ wipes on heroic anduin
Now that's a fight I like
I hate they nerfed it
Yeah I mean, in Vault you had some bosses that would kill groups. Mainly the last 4. In Aberrus it's just Sark
But the Sark wall is fucking huge dude, I don't see myself pugging it at all
you also are having the worst pugging luck on sark i've seen.
like idk if you're queue'ing up at the wrong time or what
Any sark group beyond a Friday is doomed from my experience
I've gotten to getting hit by tankbusters in p3 like.. 3 times (gotten to p3 more but usually results in people getting blown off the edge before it even fully starts)
I got 5 curved chars and it was quite hard
then you die at 20% and people mald and half the group leaves
back to wiping on p1
It's not easier than raz
Mechanically, sure
But there's more mechanics, more opportunities for some braindead random to grief you
If your brain is switched on, it's an easy fight
But getting all those randoms to do the mechanics correctly consistently throughout the entire fight just doesn't happen in my experience
in raz there was like, 3 brain-checks
Kill adds, zone with bombs, Go to marker p3 (after going down for haste) kill boss, suicide black hole, Don't get hit by swirlies unless bomb, gg kill boss
I've only seen the black hole in one attempt lmao
It's like, we have an attempt where we get to p3 but a few too many mistakes from others and it's over
and then luckily the group doesn't fall apart
yet this next attempt everyone's dropping bombs in the worst spots???
I ranted about this in raz, where it just feels like it's RNG if your current group comp will one shot the boss or not, otherwise it's back to waiting. Feels worse with this raid
Ranged is like the most payphone fucking role in the game
lmao
🙂
What should I name my disc priest
What race?
Anything on Horde, pref Allied because I hate the levelling zones
