im p sure daily grinds didnt turn 4m people from the game

correlation =/= causation

#

mmo as a whole and wow kinda lost popularity

waxen orbit
blazing condor
#

a bunch of shit happened those years

mighty valley
#

"the only content" was the problem there, and the shift in game focus like goodstuffe said

Sad thing is that Draenor had better content than SL

what is the deal with tich server USA i keep seeing

#

theres alot of love hate with that realm

mighty valley
#

honestly wow's biggest problem is its audience is overall aging up and getting bitter, and they're not doing anything to refresh it for a new audience

sick sentinel

some people say DON'T INVITE TICH,

Literally brought the game back from the brink of death by fixing bugs and making it a better competitive experience, adding a decent ranked system and then continually doing that. Now they're focusing on nerfing things that no one asked to be nerfed and trying to make the game easier and are essentially making changes focused on the casual audience. Guess what? They've been on a steady decline, but they're convinced they're right.

mighty valley
#

this is just armchair psychology shit, another bad thing the community does is try and pretend they're equipped to analyze the people and process involved, when they should just stick to criticizing the actual game

i got chatbanned from RS because i figured out that you can type "bullfuck" and it got around the censor

BLizzard should just start communicating more effectively and people would be happier.

so i got small chat mute for that like 1-2 weeks i think

Even if the answer won't satisfy 100% of the people it will still be a answer and will more than likely make things clearer for others.

waxen orbit
#

Right now it is a one sided abyss of communication

mighty valley
#

i think their communication could be a lot better, but also communication with a big game audience is very hard and it's not trivial to fix that

waxen orbit

We shout into a pit and the pit doesn’t respond

"oh hey this guy has a 90% pickrate and a high win rate"
"huh must be his gun we should nerf it"
"oh lets add 5 more operators that have grenades, you know the thing this guy counters?"
"wow that's a great idea!"
"huh he's still got a 90% pickrate and a high win rate, I think we need to nerf his gun again"
"Should we add more grenades too?"
"Yeah why not"
"Huh weird he still had a high pickrate this last season, let's just nerf his gadget"

#

This is literally the siege balancing process

blazing condor
#

@patent osprey also can't believe you snitched like that. really gonna do me that way sadge

#

Like obviously in a meme format

sick sentinel
#

zovaal feels like a completely throw away or reduntant comic book villian with no real motives and we can't see his real face or body and voice and then at the end of the episode, its like a mutant from another planet on xmen, they are just defeated and banished

chilly brook
#

But that's literally what happened over a few seasons, they kept adding things that an operator counters and continued to nerf the operator because they felt he was over represented even though he was the only one who could counter throwables for a long time. And they saw it as a problem with the operator rather than a problem with how many throwables are on the table.

sick sentinel
#

theres no real set up for him, hes just there and oooo he angry

#

he gunna kill us all!! with death magic!!

mighty valley
#

i think there's some interesting stuff below the surface with zovaal but the surface is so boring, why would i bother digging deeper

waxen orbit
#

That’s because the Jailer is a writing tool, not a genuine character

#

From the perspective of a writer, there is nothing there to flesh him out

mighty valley
#

i can see that character work went into him if I work hard enough but his entire presentation is dull enough that I don't want to

chilly brook
waxen orbit
#

No clear, understandable motives, no understandable factors that make him somewhat relatable or fathomable as a real person, nothing. He is simply a vehicle for Danuser to peddle Sylvanas’ arc further

chilly brook
#

I wouldn't go that far tbh

#

But his setup is weak

#

And he definitely feels like a tool to advance the story

sick sentinel
#

what should have happened is 9.3 should have come out, and then surprise! it was arthas all along and he was just collecting even more souls

mighty valley
#

sigh. the buck stops with him, but on a game like wow, the story is a large process with many voices. the wow forum community acts like this guy goes into a cabin and returns with a hundred pages of parchment, like it's just his obsession

mighty valley
#

wow story has always been a mess that sometimes accidentally makes something good that people like

sick sentinel
#

the spirit controlling arthas leaps into zovaals body and he goes nuts, destroys oribos into a million pieces

mighty valley
#

but even during wotlk, or mop, pick your heyday, the vocal forum community was like "this is the death knell for wow story"

we've killed and captured baine so many times this point who even cares

What spirit controlling arthas?

i was 100% expecting 9.3 with arthas whoop some ass

from my perspective, wow story has always been pretty bad at the big cartoony comic book story moments, so my expectations there are low. but the smaller stuff in the leveling story and zone content and stuff can sometimes be surprisingly good

Oh, I keep forgetting. @patent osprey Thanks to some of your YouTube videos a month or so ago, I learned better how to do some opening dungeon pulls (and other pulls going forward). Might seem trivial, but I didn't understand until watching how effective charge, revenge, leap, clap, charge revenge, intervene back can be to pulling packs quickly and getting a little initial agro. Sometimes I wonder if I should roll DH with how much I love this type of movement.

Blood DK main, tried prot warrior out in a m+. Does prot do any AoE damage at all?

Don't use the BFA talents, don't overuse IP, and you should have plenty rage for revenges

Empty GCDs should be very rare

final gust
#

that was the problem

#

in bfa you could basically keep IP up all the time

#

so I was used to doing that

teal swift

IP is a second line of defense. You mainly use it when you have to.

Or to prevent rage capping so you can funnel more rage u to AM

thunderclap isnt a real spell

hey guys, i am trying to get into tanking for my friend grp but i struggle really hard in higher keys. how do we survive bigger pulls? i feel so squishy...

#

are there any youtube channels i should take a look at for how to pull and use cdsß

urban portal
#

What's your definition of high keys

#

Your friends shouldn't make you tank anything more than a 15 if just starting out

ionic fern
#

Do you have any logs/vods or anything else that could provide us more information?

#

Are you playing Reprisal?
More often than not it's usually a mix of:
-Low SB up-time
-A lot of wasted rage
-Prioritising IP over SB
-Not pressing your rotational buttons enough so you have less rage to go around and use
-Not using your defensive CD's

spare ice
# urban portal What's your definition of high keys

i can tank up to 16.17 just fine but everything beyond that feels really hard. i play reprisal legendary, i keep SB up at all times. it just feels like im unhealable sometimes. do i need to use a defensive on every pull? i will try to log our next key and post it here. maybe tomorrow evening

ionic fern
#

You need to use a defensive when needed.

#

Even on 20's you don't need them on "every pull".

#

If you're confident in your own good play and think that's not the issue then it's more than likely casts going through and people not interrupting.

blazing condor

@ionic fern if you are eating exclusively autos (assuming shield block isn't up), is crit or vers a higher survival up

#

Crit gives you parry chance right

#

And it converts into a higher Parry chance than vers converts into dr

ionic fern
#

Crit is one of the best defensive stats for us in those "nieche" situations. So crit. 🙂

#

But due to Crit being RNG and only working against melee attacks it's still worse that Vers in almost any real situation.

Ok just making sure I understand the tank notes post correct

Vers is 80 per 1%, how many points of crit for 1% of parry?

Was easier to spam roll instead of learning something new

blazing condor
#

its true

#

i would always just use small shields

#

felt nice

#

but yeah you gotta learn the bosses as well what you can/cannot parry as well as their swing-timings

Using my brain for more than R1 spam ratge

There was 2 new trinkets added this build for tanks

Brain expansion trinket

That's basically 1/100th of an auto attack

its literally free defense stop complaining??????

That looks like a 100k damage trinket every 3 minutes

gaunt dawn
#

p confident those numbers arent final

teal swift
#

So like 500-700dps when scaled with vers and crit

#

Yeah there's no way

ocean reef
#

Would be very surprised if the AoE part doesn't get changed into a scaling AoE

teal swift
#

That's not even the issue

#

Single target that shit hits for like 12k 6 times

#

Before vers and crit LOL

ocean reef
#

On a 3 min CD

teal swift

Ye

ocean reef
#

It's not exactly outlandish on that long of a cooldown

teal swift

It's gonna be nice to tank with

#

Rift shard seems undertuned rn

Obv numbers not final

mighty valley

yeah do not waste any brain time on numbers when gear first goes in

Need to have the numbers ready for the inevitable many questions regarding "Is this good", that'll come ratge

On display you then change the text to %s for seeing red

if there is shield would be awful close to 249 equiped is 247/8 i think?

have to "tuesday morning position my self by vault before reset" right now though

Highest Block best

all i meant was im still stuck with a 242

but its haste whatever, so i aint bitchin

246 soon

remember guys: its the player not the gear

im 248 and i fucked up a 14 pf and got a druid meleed by not being in range on PF final, trying to charge

dawn canyon

I beg you to get a weakaura between your Player and target frame

sick sentinel
#

thats with demo button, but is all the ones

#

(the long icon row ones in middle/bottom aren't always active)

dawn canyon
#

Id maybe put the bottom ones in a more visible area

#

Imo a fat rage Bar in the middle could help but that isnt a bad start

sick sentinel
#

i was going to run the 15 after cuz we were going to time it, just, yogi things happen

I do wonder why your general dungeon WA is all the way at the bottom

And your general skills over to the left

sick sentinel

#

That's a good weakaura

blazing condor
sick sentinel
#

you die to the boss if you do know mechanics and don't do them

#

or RNG

#

bad timing

#

maybe the healers having a hard time getting mana back or the rogue died to a cleave because he got aggro after a giga ambush

blazing condor
#

first wipe was just the tank not being a tank

#

rest is just people being bad but its okay as long as people have fun 🙂

so no hate

thats the attitude i wish blizzard had towards the big 3 forms of content

it's okay as long as people are having fun

I see videos like this and it just reminds me how bad an average player actually is

blazing condor

yeah its kinda crazy

jagged pier
#

as an average player doesnt even do m+

blazing condor
#

its a good reality check

#

easy to always just assume most people play like you do yourself

#

for me thats like 3/10m and 2,3k rating which isn't even anything

jagged pier
#

well its when ppl say KSM is ez

#

and its like top 10% of chars that have a run a m+ have it

sick sentinel

they have a guild filled with people who have tons of CE and KSM'

already

ahh

and it gives u that extra % of blocked hits which u dont need unless your doing 25s
