where arms buff then
bm is fuckin stoopid
you could close the discord
time to try something new
beast mastery where 60% of your damage comes from.. uhh big arrow
BM Dark Ranger got a yuuuuuuuge buff on its main spell as the spec was unplayable: all bm were Pack Leader
you mean to tell me, that "5"% buff to bamkin suddenly do top end damage
from being bottom 2

Sometimes that’s the case because skilled players hop onto it
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/46RJxBatzGcpQhL8?fight=32&type=casts&source=39&ability=194223 kill timer very favorable for bamkin

I'm assuming I missed the discussion already, but what was the verdict on Yoda's video claiming that Netherprism was 2nd best trinket for every tank except VDH and Tome wasn't even on his list?
bad and wrong
im aware of such a phenomenon just didnt think it would flip this quickly
the game is buggy as fuck....going back to hunter, if you literally dont press a button and wait for your main spell to come off CD if 0.5secs is left and have loads of "dead time" in a fight, like multiple seconds it adds up to, you 2.5% more dps...."always be casting" doesnt apply
Just rember: if Yoda said it, it's probably wrong 
surely that's just a tuning issue not a bug
0.5s is nothing and youre likely already missing that just from mechanics. not necessarily a bug either, some specs pool for an extended time (sub) and look literally afk
I love just autoattacking as rogue sometimes
i love doing sub 1m damage for 30s because sb is about to be ready
bm was never like that, you spam a button all the time, now it is, and its still instant cast...but you arent pooling anything
it is over an entire fight....lots of dead time which is weird as BM cos its supposed to be like playing warrior
sounds... like a bit of a reach, would need data on that
always spamming abilities
Yoda feely crafts and then states it as fact. He's usually wrong. This is the case here as it will be most times
cuz like, the trinket does a mediocre amount of damage and provides nothing while building stacks
unlike the god tier trinket casters had in s1 which gave you stats even while building stacks
and tanks arent like casters who have mega potent offensive CDs to make it worth their while to gather stacks over extended period of time
so while not using the trinket, youre legitimately missing out on 7% of mainstat or secondary stat
and tanks want consistency and not big boom trinkets
I want grieftorch
cuz tank aura
they need to remove that shit
its so fucking useless
cuz all it does is "yeah okay we want stat sticks"
for healer and tanks alike
who fucking cares if our trinket that does 5% of our dps does 7.5% instead
unless they design GOOD tank/healer only trinkets
for netherprism iirc the discussion was that you ideally just want to use the trinket on CD, at which point its just a worse antenna
or close to it
loomithar trinket enters the chat
(they manage to do good healer trinkest, so why not tank trinkets)
(but also this expansion had a bunch of good tank trinkets, and dragonflight at least had augury)
I don't like how the sickest trinkets are raid only
dragon flight had dreadplates
yeah surprisingly we had 2 good tank trinkets so far
song as old as time
3 actually
that was really good, the one from lair 60s cd was good too when it was that season
If tome turns out to be bad, after hunting it for over x50 (so far) priories, I'm going to be upset
how could it turn out bad
but still very useful if used correctly
its proven from last patch already and hasnt changed
It's still nice for prio targets in m+ when my friends are awful at focusing the knight
ok boomer
Isn't the brand a good tank trinket ? it's a DPS for tank
wouldnt use it in m+ personally
ye it was nerfed by 25% in s2
I enjoyed larynx (lynx? Cant remember the exact name) from s1
larynx was fun ye
I mean, I gotta raid to get anything that's better than tome in m+ I think
3.5 million dmg per tick
Pacemaker+brand in pure aoe?
nom why are you not playing btw
Or antenna
cuz games shit
I'm still convinced blizzard only makes good tank trinkets by accident
the heck is dunning kruger raiding
Pretty much
Dunning krueger raiding? x)
idol/pacemaker/soleah
pick 2
i lost more faith recently about wow
reroll from priest confirmed
they said they want to move away from dramatic world ending events
I have a soleah's but I doubt it beats tome's usefulness
i just dont find raiding enjoyable outside of farm idk
and focous on the mundane day to day events
tome is 120k dps and that's excluding the crit
i mean farm is just logs
and 170k on st
exactly
not a fan of tome's uptime if you pull large enough 🤷♂️
and im like ........ (poop noise)
fair ig
ye not a fan of all the comp restrictions either
"oh you dont have a 2nd lock/dk for dimmy D? Well you better gear one then Catge"
you 👏 will 👏 2 👏 dks 👏 and 👏 4 👏 mages 👏 and 👏 you 👏 will 👏 like 👏 it 👏
classic
fuck turbo boost
I hated turbo boost day one and everyone was like "nah it's good"
turns out I was right
again
LOL!😂
but also "yeah okay we're 10 ilvl behind people from RWF doing this boss so we lets spend 4hrs throwing ourself against this and waste to ricky restricted forgetting to blink"
and then ALL the drama
c-b-a
i just wanna vibe and kill
not wipe and vomit
just make mythic farmable
done
remove weekly IDs
game would instantly be more enjoyable
wouldnt change anything for later bosses or me personally
but also fuck turbo boost
add 10 man mythic, remove locks, remove LFR and Normal 
would change raiding for 98% of raiders as you can farm loot until you are done and THEN prog
no point in removing lower difficulties
theres an audience for it and game needs entry points
i swear the worst feeling in all of wow is you are logging on at monday 11:47 to do your weekly 10 or 20 orw hatever it is now
Yes, but what about FOMO and players paying the subscription ?! You are looking at how have fun and Bli² is looking on how to get $
and then you get your key group ready at 2:38am and it starts at 3:07am tuesday and then you start running it and then you lag out
and then the key isfucked,
but LFR and to a lesser extent Normal and low keys (like below 6) are so mindnumbingly pointless and require zero coordination or effort that they may as well not exist
fomo is for cosmetics imo
not for power
am I the only one that feels this way
Rejoice, it happened
so you try again at 7 am and the server shut down mid key
theres people scared of +2s
and you got no vau lt
they also require next to 0 maintenance
I am probably the highest unbuffed HP player in the world
since they design for heroic or mythic first and then remove mechanics for lower
I don't get how they're "entry points" when they play themselves and don't teach you anything
Finally hit 30M
that's a fair point
take away anxiety of people without guilds
true
cuz like
for someone who has never stepped into a raid, its a wildly different environment than questing
just the virtue of having seen a handful of mechanics by doing it on a lower difficulty
Is there a ranking for max hp?
the way i play wow, is basically like the guild doesnt exist unless i want to do raiding
If you are not running Mtyh raid then weekly vault is your only option to get Myth gear ... so power ...
hey im running 16-17 rn and **I'M **scared of 2s, just for different reasons 🫠
and i barely did/do much raiding past few years anywas
exactly
so remove that restriction
get a priest and an aug talented into draconic attunements and have them press scales 
they really shouldn't force you to clear mythic raid for myth trinkets from dinars imo
LET ME STYLE ON NERDS
mage tower my behated
I’d be happy to infinitely farm mythic ilvl too
At the very least base mythic ilvl
Could still have crests be a thing
I mean with the turbo boost they negate everything anyway
yeah but you dont have that tshirt from metallica concert 1998
so there's basically no harm in week 1 myth loot from keys imo
I agree with you on how to make the game better for players ! just saying why, i think, bli² will not do it ^^
jokes on you nerd i am metallica
looks like a z and its a 2 -> 2z
cause i'm lazy blibli or bli²
blizzard squared

typing ² is inherently harder to type than zz cmm
how do you even type that
blizzard grammarly when?
right alt + 2
Cause you are on qwerty man, on azerty it's just before the 1 key 😄 (yes i'm french so i'm on azerty)
on eu keyboard at least
i want an auto correct in wow chat but one that doesnt turn arthas into arthritis!
dafuq
I'm on US layout
is that even more hp? I am maxxing out unbuffed tho
stamina buff is more hp yes
keyboard layout
😂
french layout
qwertz
qwerty
azerty
Ahh yes googling
dvorak?
Pretty neat
48M with last stand, rally, and steadfast
yep,
probably can hit 70M with shaman + priest + frontline
keyboards is a rabbithole and a half
OMT ! 48M ...
raid boss
omt? oh my thanos?
O My Thor
Sorry I missed Legion, was playing it back for transmog and found funny that they put Thor as Warrior's god 😄
One man thick
Don’t forget your Aug buff
Started to gear my alt DK, I'm also afraid of +2s straight to 7s I went 
Using thane talent?
Don't go too fast ! you need at least 50M unbuffed for LFR 😉
I genuinely think that's a failure of the game by not having actual engaging gameplay and mechanics before endgame
yeah i even have stamina trinkets and gems
You can kinda just brain-off everything until keys and heroic raid
friends first key on his pwar was a 16 to get a 15 from vault

but I think I can take on any tank buster ez in the game without CDs
3 day old char btw
Don’t do this if your tanking raid. At least stack the mobs lol
Have you done LFR ? :x I mean, don't look how it is for you but how others are playing. I think LFR is good for people that discover the game and early stuff alts.
Doing lfr makes me want to unalive myself
When you know the game and run normal raid it's already boring :/
People are so fucking stupid and refuse to look at fights before quing
I like raid for the visiuals and fun mechanics to explore
Then get mad that shocker 3 hours of lfr Dimi prog
i dont read anything xd
i tag nome for any question
Again, that's just a side effect of the game design
bro needs a salary off this shit
At least you are asking someone
You don't need to read or learn anything until suddenly you hit that wall
The game is awful at teaching people how to play
things that actually kill you without any dmg is my bane
Fair
like gettign thrown off the platform etc.
Of course it is, it relies on social interactions .... I hate people ...
Trying to teach some friends though, they refuse to learn
Yeah that's a classic
My buddy refused to put bop and freedom on his bars bc “too many buttons”
Dawg your a ret pala
usually the longer they've been playing the harder they refuse to learn too
Game gets harder at endgame and all the boomers that never had to learn suddenly can't win as easily but don't want to adapt

Only thing boomers catch these days is Covid kekw
💀
I just think if you WANT to clear some content you should also want to learn to be able to do so
can't have one without the other
I don't know for you, but I played Vanilla, levelling experience was horrific! so fricking looooooooooooooooooooooong. And now, you create a char and 3h after you are max level, what the hell happened ? wasn't there a middle ground ?
My friend has me call out basic mechanics in m+ (like big aoe dam in a boss fight) because he cba fixing his scuffed healer UI (Healbot btw) he's used for the last 15 years
You cannot learn the game nor your char having new comp every 2minutes ...
it's like 
I like the fast leveling for alts but maybe
Make leveling longer
You only level to max in 3h if you buy a boost
And have war band exp buff go up in value to like 50%
Also, people who enjoy leveling have the classic servers to enjoy
Not 3h for real of course, but it's too fast!
Bro
nice discord just broke
Someone made a vid of going from level 10-80 in 2 hours
Idk why that's bad, you can keep doing quests as much as you want
Just flying and getting “discovered a new zone” exp
I have hope for the new leveling
I don't see how spamming dungeons for a few extra hours per level is good
Or doing any repetitive content for exp
With it being dragonflight from start to finish including story mode raids
It's just that leveling adds new comp over time, so you can learn to use the malong the way and not be overwelmed by 20comps and talents all at once.
Maybe make first time players do a campaign set like ff14
But let Alts fuck off in timewalking for 15 min to hit max lvl
First time players are forced to do DF
Can just spam dungeons though
I mean like
Everyone else can do whatever expansion they want
In ff14 you can’t go to tbc until you did every single fucking quest in classic including the raid and patch quests
It's already like that isn't it?
What if that's what they want to do
Why keep them from doing so
Middle ground guys 🙂 Let's give at least first leveling a bit longer than it is right now for new players
The issue isn't really the speed at which you hit max level imo
But why
Why XP at all then ?
Just let every person pace themselves however they want
Just give max level, full comp and talents and jump then
the issue is how no content requires any neuron activation until suddenly your bad performance ruins everyone elses experience
I mean can’t spam dungeons
Some people enjoy the lore, so let them quest all the way through
Just something that actually gets noobs to figure their shit out
This is how you kick
Spending more time where talents and skillsets are all over the place wont make them improve
Kick the mob 3 times consistently or get 1 shot and have to restart
Also, only people who want to improve will do so
Some people are content doing delves with a 1-button rotation assistant
There should be something in place that introduces people to common dungeon/raid mechanics tho
like kicking, ccs, swirlies
and it should be pass/fail
Follower dungeons
yeah follower dungeons don't do that
Kyvezaa/whatever boss is current
but they're a good idea fundamentally
In delves
i still think
all dungeons should be in the LFD for the expansion sort of thing
when new dungeon comes out you can do that in LFD from day 1
as a fresh whatever you call it minus 5 or minus 10 lvls
the freehold experience basically
cuz then you have all 5 people doing it as casual content
so you are forced to learn it wholy and properly
my guess is they tried out the Proving Grounds in mop and it didn't have enough of an effect for the dev time
i really really think for the first season of expansion
only new expansion dungeons
period
for like mythic mode and m+
i think that is so utterly crucial
21 years have passed
The problem with having proving grounds as a requirement was that lots of people were too bad at the game to finish even the lower difficulties, so there was a lot of complaints.
yeah, people learn better by just trying real stuff, and they resent features that looks like homework
everyone else just has to deal with people learning in real time
Well maybe midnight will change that
Maybe the player base will be sick as heck and everyone instinctively knows how to be great because hey have a house to rest in
OSRS has done a pretty decent job lately at introducing lower level pvm content
Sure, but it's also as simple as this: some people suck at the game and that's okay. I personally think something like a proving grounds would be cool before you could do M+, but the problem before was that lots of very casual players were negatively affected by it
yep
yeah but isnt that kind of the point
Kind of, but when a large portion of your paying customers are pissed, it doesn't matter what the intention is.
if they cant do PG then blizz should tune the low end of m+ to meet the skill level of those players
m+ scales infinitely so its not like this is a problem
Mythic+ is easier than ever and that's the new status quo for keeping subs up
Enough elitism
But we also have a lot more complexity added to several specs than it has been in a long long time
Go do 20 keys
its not elitism, im literally saying blizz has the perfect system in place for all players
They can move the goalpost as much as they want. If they make lower M+ easier then it just means they'll get to higher keys faster and we're back to square one.
why would any player be gatekept from m+
thats not a blizzard problem tho imo
But it is. Because it will affect other players which affects their income.
Yeah, that's a you problem because you can't keep up with key level of ok players
Don't do 10s for crests in week 6 and complain that players are shit
Do 16s
if you have a scaling system that scales infinitely as long as you tune the floor to be approachable for the majority of the playerbase then its accessible and skill levels solve themselves
players will rise to the level they are capable of doing
It's a Gauss bell. Just be on the right side slope
I agree that's how it would be in a perfect world. But people are entitled as all hell.
again not something blizz can really solve for
The issue is players wants to do content not aprioprate for their skill level because they are watching streamers playing it easily, Blizzard cant fix that.
Yeah, it's really hard. That's why there's no super easy obvious solution here.
they really cant do much more to add content to the game, theres truckloads of content and nearly all of it scales lol
Not being skilled enough to do +12 or +14 is fine.
if people want to complain let them complain but theres not much else blizz can do for them
You literally said that people should have proving grounds before M+. We have heroics already. You want only college people to vote too? 
I think PG was kinda dumb, it wasnt representative of the gameplay you would find in a time gated key scenario.
if blizz wants to gatekeep certain key levels then IMO they should lock keys to current + 1
You're misunderstanding. It's a very different game now compared to when MoP was released. And proving grounds was a requirement for heroics back then iirc.
if youve done a 12 priory then you can queue for a 13
Yes and just 20 levels added from the 60 😄 you see how long leveling is !! (this is obviously a joke)
I personally think IO is stupid too because its a flawed numerical representation of assumed skill
it means literally nothing at the low end
Correct. Same as Mythic+ population was shit in Legion. It grows more and more and it adapts. No need for gatekeeping mechanisms from devs.
Just push to your level and if in 5 keys you have shit players, then that's your level
Democracy
Yes, I believe they'll simply let it be. The current system works as well as you could hope for.
Yes, but that's because of the recent giga inflation and easy gear sine they're too tired to work on TWW. It used to provide guarantees 1-2 expacs ago.
it has never been a good system
Well now hold on
a 2900 io player with 300 completed keys is 99.999999999999999999% of the time going to be a vastly better player than a 3k player with 10 completed keys
It was never perfect, but a 3k player used to came with certains guarantees for a run
The dungeon score changes color and when I become orange I feel like the system is correctly calling me legendary
So
I think it’s at least decent
thats bc youre a legend
Hey thanks you too
blizz should delete IO and just show you how many completed keys a person has in a given level
EEEEHHHH
getting 3k really doesnt take more than 10 keys
You say such hurtful things
so someone struggling to get to 3k with 300 keys is a bit of a red flag, atleast for my view of the game
this one's literally just blizzard saying "well, this numerical system is very flawed. but if it's not in the game, you're all gonna do it 3rd party anyway"
whats more likely, someone did 10 keys and hit 3k because they were very good
or someone was carried through 10 keys
depends who you are 😄
im not sure thats true, not completely anyway, people get stuck in a wave of players and if they arent ahead, they might be a week 1 3k player pugging in week 5
you cant run the key alone
The problem on the number of run you make is the starting point.
I’m not 3k yet but we are fine pumping out 10s and 11a for vault
most of the 3k in 10 keys people arent pugging anyway
Am I one of the red flags…
I played till MOP, so I don't know any of the old dungeons, take bit of runs to know them 🙂
depends if you are trying or not
I think the real world answer is its somewhere in the middle, someone has low completed keys but high rating, prob not a good pick
someone has a bunch of completed keys and a high rating, prob a safe pick
but I do think IO as a numerical representation is vastly more harmful than helpful
if blizz weighted it better or put more into it, I'd be more approving of it
How could they improve it? Make it more like typical MMR where your score can decrease with poor performances?
same as you can expect an 8/8M raider to atleast know how to do damage over someone who is only 2/8M
add a cieling score and a sliding value based on number of completed keys at a given level
with a max of x keys
We need Dota 2 stats. Each player has a tracker for average interrupts per key, average damage per key, average healing per key, etc etc etc
All the numbers
people can already not read logs
We kinda do have that. You can always look up players on Warcraftlogs, but ain't nobody got time for that.
And not everyone logs, but it is quite common.
not really for keys
I dont think theres really enough people logging keys to get a true sense of the dataset
given the scaling and dynamic nature of m+ we'd need hundreds of thousands to really arrive at any real conclusion
At the end, if you need a doctorate in WoW to make a group it's not a game anymore ...
Very true. It's a hard balance to keep.
Oof, good one
IMO for M+ score
First key completion at a given level gives a base score (lets say a +10 is 100 points)
Each key level is 20 point spread (+11 is 120 points)
For each key you complete at a given level, you get a point bonus, up to half of the next tier, with a bonus for multi chesting too). So if you do 10 +10 priories, you get 1 point per completion up to a max of 110 points, 2 additional bonus points for +2 and +3, bringing you to 115 max in a bracket
it isnt foolproof, but it would provide a significantly better window into a player's familiarity and relative skill in a given dungeon set if we're looking at a single number
is there anyway to potentially check how much rage im getting from bloodsurge
yes
if you log it can be drilled down to that level
ty ty
wanted to see how much im getting and if its worth to run it
it most likely is but still
It's depending on pull size 7-12% of rage gain
M+ fails are about lack of class knowledge. Tons of DPS dont know their class, hence the bricks. Its not about the dungeon. Everybody can learn the dungeon in 3-4 runs.
Or tanks have shit 110% routes
yeah but for most people repetition leads to mastery. Like I said not perfect but it is probably true that a person who has done the key a bunch of times is better at pressing the buttons in it
i play with some people who dont know their class after 3 expansions
what are you gonna do 🤷
i dont know my class because i forgot i have aoe fear removal for that one stupid ass mob in manaforge
🙂
I feel like the vast majority of the player base doesn’t understand mitigating incoming damage. Instead they try to self heal or defensive during or after the damage has already been done. Also there’s specs that encourage degenerate behavior.
Took me a longer time then it should’ve to understand mitigating/using defensives and understanding when damage is coming in matters so much to staying alive. Rather than just be a dump dps hoping my healer saves the day. Also most dps have no idea how much a healer or tank does to save their asses.
yeah, some people aren't aware of the damage moments, others might be aware but their brains are fully taken up by trying to do their rotation and they don't remember/notice the tell for incoming damage
many factors
It should be hella good if all higher ranked ( like above 3k rio) people played tank or healer before, to give them some sense how much they can help by doing bare minimum
My dps knows : I do nothing haha. You did the bed!
Save the cheerleader! Sorry that’s a different one, save the healer!
Like forced military service like in Korea. Blizzard makes people play a few keys with a healer/tank before going into high keys 😂
I mean , sometimes yes it happens , but today i had a random fella that had 9 out of 10 deaths
Rememer that M+ needed to become a thing in order for all the prot warriors population to learn to use Shield Wall BEFORE the damage spike, not during/after
We need a good laugh! Isn’t it god damn funny to see a dos running away with mobs on his ass instead of running towards the tank?!
The average wow player skill went up by a ton due to M+ alone
Due to accountability
Hot take also: wow is a hard game
hard is a sliding scale, but yeah, it's easy to take for granted the things you know when you've been doing them for years/decades
Yup
I would not realy say hard , more like complicated , but that can also be both i guess
But if u are somehow capable human playing slightly above average isnt that hard and is not rocket science
You're biased. As a new player, just look at some random youtube video of high PvP players. So much shit on the screen you cant even watch the actual gameplay
I guess , dont know that many new players
it's eye opening to see a truly new player try wow for the first time
stuff like... auto attacks don't make sense to some people at first
Game is layered. Tons of PvE players ego goes out the window once they encounter PvP players who actually know the class.
Anyway, FYI its the tanks' fault for not talenting Piercing Howl for Gambit 1st area 
How much is howl slow again?
70%
About to start progression on nexus-King hc.
In phase 1, is it okay to taunt swap after each cast ?
Not worth the talent for that, never had issue with it there tbf
is the void pactstone a bait? 
Curious what else u had i group there when they blamed u for that
I’m just tired of so much being expected of our role in keys
My osrs friends playing wow “holy shit I can jump??”
Maybe that’s a community problem or maybe that’s a design problem but either way it feels like I’m not allowed to turn my brain off
i mean
I need Roid to take over
just by nature of the role itll happen
For weekly keys there needs to be like... two brains active total across five people
the person who does all the pulling will be in charge of it all
Some people can contribute a portion of their brain
Usually that’s me and the healer, and then our revolving door of intrepid sword icons just kinda exist
These are all buddies?
Yeh. Maybe a pug here or there
how do i make my team stop kicking when I have reflect up?
U have to taunt every cast
And make sure u taunt mid cast
ok thx
So if ur 2nd tank, boss is casting buster 1 u taunt, boss is casting buster 2 at you, other tank taunts,
question, loomithar's living silk trinket is technically usable by all roles right? even though healers are the only one's it drops for
i saw it has haste and is nasty with helping everyone live in keys
Hi guys. When reshi wraps the cloak pops, it shows a massive shield and its so hard to see how much % hp you actually have because of this massive shield on the hp bar. Any1 know a solution?
Yes u can use it, it has haste and is rather strong at what it does, but i dont think it will be neccesary anytime soon , even less for non r1 players, u also sacrifice a lot of dmg for it
i assume an addon is doing that cause i use default character frame and i have the opposite i see my hp and have no idea % of shield
👍
Me in 2006 when I came here from eqoa
mage players do half the dps of any other class in dungeons
Same item level, i'm easily ripping aggro from my druid cotank. What solution ?
tell them to git gud, otherwise you will just need to hold back on damage
Tell him to seek improvement or just chill depending on the vibe of the guild and the likelihood that he'll actually try to improve.
very taste based, what have you liked in the past
Is it only a matter of the druid playing better ?
Yeah
ye
they arent doing enough damage to hold aggro
Alot of bear players i’ve noticed are
not the greatest…
there are some absolute freaks at it but i swear its such a dry tank spec
Do you have logs?
As a big bear man myself
I can advise
Not yet, it's our first night playing together (he just swapped from DK)
What are your thoughts on some of the dps specs. What do you find fun, what do you find particularly well designed or easy to perform, etc
Bear need to get better, in the meantime you need to hold yourself when switch happens :/
Get me some logs and I can tell you more. Without seeing anything, make sure he's playing DotC, mangle/thrash on CD, dump rage into Ironfur with Thorns of Iron, and ripweave
It's your job both to have tank swap working
Arms sometimes, ret, marks and surv, destro sometimes, fire and arcane mages sometimes, I like the idea of feral and outlaw and ass but never have been good at them
i'm watching sense's forgeweaver kill, and i much prefer the pylon energy presentation from his northern sky wa, but my guild uses liquid, is there anyway i can get liquid to present the pylon energy like that? or another individual wa that does?
Outlaw is welp full on crackhead start to finish
if you think fury is fast just wait
outlaw is like double fury apm
i did a 12 flood earlier as fury cuz everyone is like "fury so big now" and i was not enjoying it
back to survival for dps
i will always hate on fury
its more a playstyle if you enjoy hitting
absolute garbage design philosophy
i haven't played fury for a minute, but i feel current build seems pretty fun
current build is literally 1 button
It just doesnt feel satisfying to play? Like conceptually swining around two big ass weapons and smacking people while spinning sounds awesome but in practice it feels so.... blegh
bro, it's 2
i will never understand how completely absence of any critical thought is fun
nome is here not to fucking, confirmed
Bit of both
and idk fdk
shut down the discord
BM Hunter
destro lock is very simple too
mm is the only real hunter spec
They somehow dumbed it down more this season
i dont acknowledge hunters with pets
i dont acknowledge hunter
Survival is fun
they are always players who you dont even notice are in your raid or guild
someone has to do the mechanics
I love a good bm hunter in m+ now
There’s mechanics in omega?
Feel like this raid has like, the least mechanics of any raid I’ve done
vault of the wardens
for melee kinda
incarnates?
idk half our ranged were dead on terros
that raid legit doesnt exist on mythic except for raszageth a tiny bit
every week
legit 0 mechanics entire raid
just follow boss, hit boss
dont stand in bad
WOOP
boss dead
Didn’t you have to take your lightning to the mountains and step in lava before you got frozen in the council boss
Does that not count
no he means council
ah that one was just FULL ON ZUG
just stand all in the same spot
and send the boss home
that one was legit 0 mechanics
ohno i have 6 stacks, ok i clear we safe
yeah i mean you could just stand on the rock
ohno i have 1 stack, ok i clear we safe
if it was next to the boss
like the boss only applied 10 stacks
as long as you cleared ONCE at ANY point
youre fine
or you just get broken out by dps
or not
and just watch from the sidelines
completely irrelevant boss
theres a few dps specs which i swear
Y’all def play a different game than me :/
My group currently can’t kill H Saladbar. Does he have mechanics in your game
H pugs are 6/8 consistently. Some can get the last two but it def isn’t consistent
yeah okay but those are like demon pugs, im talking HoF/m+ title player pugs
How do I get into those

make friends
by talking shit in discord
and you get into, what is now #5 guild in the world as a trial (no longer am)
or just don't raid because it's too much of a pain into the ass
im still waiting on that wizard rhino smh
My only wow friends that don’t suck live here. Can we do a full pwar raid
I find DPS players as a whole on NA pugs do better in raid than M+, but tanks are god awful in raids compared to M+
He’s max level! Need to get gear and deep dive the wowhead page
career raid tanks are like often the worst players, skillwise and mentality/personality wise, I ever run into
I started tanking cuz my guild died and i got tired of waiting in dps queues
most tanks started out as dps
who got tired of shit tanks
and then became the shit tanks other people are tired of
me when i join a random soulhunters pug for boots
and the rest of the dhs in group…
if only they had the boots
I've had DPS this season pull sub-healer DPS in M+
Ret
Mage players are often scams
rets arent good for shit
Resto Druids are also fake
Guys, is this week's affix a tank mechanic
Cause every other player seems to run away afraid i take their orb
to faster times
We have one ret friend and he consistently blasts immediately as I gather
And no matter how many times I tell him not to he just says it’s my responsibility to hold aggro lol
tell him to bop
He also pads on anything I pull to the boss for funnel and while I don’t really know ret I feel like he’s griefing the funnel specs
Because I don’t think ret actually funnels but maybe they do
I just default to hes intentionally being a dick
sounds like a great friend to me

the turnaround on ret is so funny
it was one of the most dead specs in the game for multiple expansions
and then they reworked it in DF
and became #1 most played spec in the game
DF was a canon expansion for ret
cuz of how simple is it
It 100% was always popular with at least the casual crowd
Rogue feels pretty low pop these days
always is
They may not have entered M+, maybe not even raids, but Rets were in town errywhere
Ironically survival is the anti ret
It was popular until blizz reworked it into something no one asked for
like i’ve always put ret in the same usefulness as those super niche specs
Its always the year of the spear now though
Melee survival is so sick
rogue has always been super underplayed
even if its conventionally one of the “good” melee

it also sucks ass at solo content so not a good selling point to casuals
you probably have gazillion crit
like i feel the most popularity it has had was when tomb mandated multiple
or bfa making shroud good for pathing
Didn’t you stack rogues for that troll priest guy in Uldir
yeah one boss
Vers is weighted relatively high in your current set and alch has a ton of static vers plus ms proc
alot couldnt play sub proper
if i personally got the run out mechanic we missed the push
the other rogues not so much
I feel like a spark on an alch stone is a bad investment when I'm still trying to get brand but i was just not expecting that haha
that passive existed entirety of legion rework
they just made a boss you could abuse it on
then realized its potentially problematic
in bfa
and now you’re basically a nuke cd spec every 90s
and tank damage outside cds
@sterile orbit ty
np
Do tier 11 delves take a lot of time for you guys too or am I doing something bad? Upwards of 30-40 minutes
Also if I don’t have brann as healing i tend to die if I pull a lot
Also I have 3/4 tierset should I run tane or colossus?
you should run colossus if you dont have 4pc
well
optimally
you can run either if you want, its entirely up to you
but colossus does more damage without 4pc
and usually we just run Brann as dps
the only notable examples are where we need a dispel like Zekvir
where we swap to healer
that was just a real edge case in s1
I can still pull pretty big in an 11 so long as I actually pay attention to mechanics, stuff like exploding spores will fuck you up
how does prot actually feel this season? i played it a bit last season but i felt so reliant on the healer being decent to stay alive since there is very little self healing even tho the dmg reduc is really good im used to tanks like guardian and veng
But also like, there's not much point in going above 8... gilded crests I guess but you get so few, should just get them from m+
we really havent changed at all
if you didnt manage SB correctly you will still have those issues
is it time for the socket? had a bad week in terms of completion so no good vault
my issue to be blunt without sounding cocky, i would pug in low keys to practice and just never get healed enough. had WA for SB and am a very compitent tank hitting 3200 on my main, would constantly just fall over on prot
i have read ppl really disliking it cause of the spawning of orbs and the must moves to get them. Plus the ring sims better
what does it say here https://www.wowhead.com/guide/classes/warrior/protection/bis-gear#trinkets
why would you care what anyone thinks about an S-tier trinket?
you gotta be doing something wrong, in low keys you can survive a ton without healing
you dont need heals in lower keys
I mean they were ppl from in here 😛
give me names
yeh i could never figure it out, maybe it was just a gear/stat issue since it was a very roughly put together alt last season
had like less then 10% haste at the time
plus I already have 2 other S tier trinkets
well, it could be a playing wrong build for your stats issue
i was using the colossal build
so?
do you have all 4?
antenna is superior to pacemaker, and only falls behind to tome on pure ST
so you have brand and...?
if it's an alt you just started playing, it's most likely just you not being used to the flow of the spec yet
plus no one kicking in low keys
its just weird to me that almost every other tank i can play at a compitent level accept warrior which seems to be the tankiest
maybe its the tism
why am i having this discussion though, im just flabbergasted someone would say "oh yeah ill just pick socket" over an antenna
i mean I did trigger you fast enough tbh
theres enough stupid here to discern trolling
i did say it was trolling right off the bat
I mean… why are you asking what to pick from vault when you don’t want to pick recommended best option?
Uhhhh, I like outlaw rogue, destruction warlock, fury warrior (sometimes), frost mage. I think the easiest spec I've played is beast mastery, which I enjoy but that's mostly because I'm not good at the game yet i want to contribute appropriately, so easy specs are the way to go. I'm not sure I am the person to talk to about good design. I can usually identify something that isn't good more than what's well designed. An example is like...outlaw requiring a lot more concentration than most other specs, or the pack leader 4 piece.
I was gonna pick the antenna and then I got here in the middle of the convo about how not optimal it is in M+ to have to move to get the orb etc. and then second thoughts poped
link the post
Both of those are things I'd change. But I couldn't tell you what is well-designed or not. I've always just been like is this fun. If it is, I like it and think it's cool
let me find it
i just wanna know who the fuck keeps complaining about doing something for a trinket, game is too hard i guess
I'd rather move a bit for 2-3 orbs and get 16k crit
Is the antenna is better than pace statement based on before or after the bug or whatever that was making it sim higher
looking back on it its insane how hard everything batman from 80's 90s and early 2000's was. some of the best actors and performances of all time
how often would you not be able to move in a situation
maybe when you are close to ninja pull more
All DPSs I had never pulled cause of antenna
and if ur tanking pull close to another pack
it's on you
honestly
im just wondering why a one line opinion would invalidate a sweeping agreement between just about all our guides and every single warrior on a trinket
i think antenna's bad because i don't have it
Same
haha you are really upset about it. I am just happy I got the right answer
Dragon games equipment my beloved
I loved that trinket. Shame it wasnt better damage or at least not physical
Isn’t antenna kinda mid?
just do delves, the dispenser is basically the same thing
now thats just very bad trolling
Yeah but it has to be good and fun, not just good
Pacemaker and soleah are about equal in overall value
Er
i get what you say. but I cant understand why it doesnt sim better for me. Do I have to do anything specific for it?
Not just fun
Like tanking your gonna miss quite a bit of the procs
Remember that legion trinket. Draught if lost souls or whatever. That thing clapped. I think they nerfed it like 17 times the next tier
Sim better than what
That was a fun one
"antenna is mid"
The animation was awesome too
At least it’s mid for dh
The new meme is everyone is pepega now
yeah apparently
These are his alt accounts
Antenna was oversimming. Is that where this is coming from?
I’m going add fuel to fire with a ring
Jastor still bis
than current trinkets. In aoe it says -25.7%
Yes what are your current trinkets
link sim
And what are you simming scenario wise
😂😂😂
Is it not the same issue that all tanks would have
now sim 5 target patchwerk
Not getting to pick up the proc
Patchwerk 3 bosses 1.5m
Because that seems impossible to me that any trinket is 25% worse than another at same ilevel
link sim
First technique trinket
Case closed
Ok besides a literal trash trinket
😭😭😭
I wish I could play outlaw
Facts
For st do yall sim 3 min or 5 min?
I love the spec but im trash at it
I do 3 mins because it's the average m+ length for boss fights
Or as close as it gets anyway
i just do 5 mins because i dont give a shit
and because wow audit requires 5 mins anyway
What the heck is wow audit
Wow audit?
Is the Azeroth irs after you?
myth guild things
uhh
Happy bday
Why is it cursed
im afraid to answer that
I think it's some raid tool to see who's done keys or some shit for guilds or something or to see what's bis or something
I thought we established it was the azeroth irs
lol
Luerce trying to change the facts
It’s cursed bc he realized astral antenna is Garbo
youre an idiot
XD 🤣
go back to fel hammer
Happy 18th birthday Nimchip
Ecks dee
Let me memeeee
You're finally a man
Except for alcohol and cigarettes*
In three years you can finally drink legally
i love my apple juice and my sippy cup
Just a wee lad, drinking bourbon on the booster seat
We spike his apple juice with vodka

So this one time I was in home ec right
And I loathe cooked carrots but we were making maple glazed carrots
