dont do it again

novel crater
#

I just dced my ass off

#

yea i just made one too I cant with this shit

#

I logged in straight into a 3 MM lobby with DCs every round u win

#

Im downloading League right now

urban skiff
#

Can you play survival hunter without boomstick?

urban skiff
#

The game is never good when MM hunter is king, at least for the specs i play

young bone
#

MM hunter is so boring to play too

urban skiff
#

and to fight

#

Their enjoyment derrives entirely from depriving me of any

#

The best most fun game a MM can have involves him taking no damage ever

young bone
#

reuw

#

true

urban skiff
#

Fuck give me a glyph that changes boomstick to a rampage animation and I'd play survival so much

#

the concept of the boomstick alone is straight up killing any interest i have in that spec

#

which is a shame, i had just gotten into that shit in TWW

#

OH COME ONE

young bone
#

thats nice, everything in 1 spot

urban skiff
#

I'm playing my aug right now

young bone
#

lol

urban skiff
#

It's just making me miss my wife

#

I dinged less than 48 hours ago and we're already back to Delves+11 being trivial content

#

At least with aug i have to think instead of just blend everything in my path like i do with shaman

urban skiff
#

ngl, kind of neat how the tooltip tells you what you can get

magic wing
#

Imaging rolling this shit

fierce elm
#

roll the delve you WONT

#

Also fuck it we playing MM now

#

<@&257983573498265600>

wheat jay
#

Afro wanna do keys later?

fierce elm
urban skiff
#

MM is just demo warrior from ranged

jovial torrent
#

daamn maybe its my hunters time to shuffle and blast

wheat jay
#

Ok

urban skiff
#

amazing epic bg

#

my own fault for going into one as aug

wheat jay
#

Ewwww aug

#

Ngl i dont like aug

#

Design wise

#

Should be like demo lock, pet class

#

But like 3-4 strong minions

#

Not army

urban skiff
#

what army

wheat jay
#

demo lock has army of small minions

#

and few bigger ones

#

aug should be normal dps, have between 1 and 4 scaly boys following him

#

and having their own separate abilities to be used as buttons

#

kinda like gw2 minions, you can have like 4 diff ones

#

they have one button to summon them, and that button changes into a different spell once theyre summoned

urban skiff
#

The whole point of aug is to buff your team, not to buff minions

wheat jay
#

ye

#

which is wack

#

and basically broke the balance of the game forever when they added it xD

urban skiff
#

they should have added it as an optional 6th spot for dungeon groups that also increased diff

wheat jay
#

lmao no

#

that would be EVEN WORSE

jovial torrent
#

yeh aug doesnt really make sense unless they wanted to make it tank heal 2 dps buff class, but then they would need to make like 1/4 of the dps specs into buff type class

wheat jay
#

its terrible from balancing pov

#

also, it isnt even the best in m+

#

its taken because of cc xD

#

its like rogue in i believe s2 of bfa and most of shadowlands

#

you took it for shroud, and for keeping 2 mobs in cc forever xD

jovial torrent
#

i think its also cus it buffs tank and healer

wheat jay
#

maybe

#

either way, it has too much

#

AND competetive dps when you look at logs

#

cuz on logs you can see how much of your dmg comes from aug

jovial torrent
#

it is a bit unfortunate that theres melee meta team and meta team and thats about it, also i decided to play arcane and dk this expac and they are riddled with bugs or bad design decisions keks

#

they need to move away from this reward top 1% mentality and go back a little more towards grinding, like top 10% skillwise but it takes a bunch of grinding cus otherwise everyone feels like they have to meta slave super hard to make the 1%

wheat jay
#

i meaaaaaaaaaaan

#

1% is 100% accessible for anyone

#

without ANY raiding at all

#

hell I was almost in 17 keys and those were above 1%, in heroic gear and lfr trinkets xD

#

1% is the grind

#

there's also 3400 mount

#

which is a grind too, but more accessible as youre not racing other players

jovial torrent
#

what

wheat jay
#

right now its 2.5%

#

on eu

#

end of season it will be closer to like 8-10%

#

but i guess you didnt mean specifically 10% as a benchmark

#

but just grinding

#

that's 3k which is kinda free, or even 2500 which gives you mythic gear in vaults

jovial torrent
#

so if i took a rogue, hunter dev evoker hpala guardian druid, im just as easily going to hit top 1%, because 1% is accessable to anyone

#

k

wheat jay
#

12 devs above 3400

jovial torrent
#

i agree that 3k is doable by anyone and 3.4k is a good stretch goal for the season, but top 1% rewards are so stupid in a game with 32 hero specs

wheat jay
#

rogue is good overall in keys, dont forget that

#

rogue is also in the top team

urban skiff
wheat jay
#

outlaw tho

urban skiff
#

go

#

solve the dps crisis

wheat jay
#

hunter is very good too

wheat jay
#

all 3 specs, with mm and bm being just best of the three

fierce elm
#

But yes

wheat jay
#

GUARDIAN DRUID IS TANKING 20S

jovial torrent
#

my point is if u take the 5 worse classes and put em against the top 5 best theres more than a 1% diff in the speed of a run

wheat jay
#

and hpala is healing 20s

fierce elm
#

Rogue is considered one of the worst M+ specs and now had a spot in one of the best runs

#

But yes, 1% is reachable if willing to put time into it

jovial torrent
#

and top 1% contest brings those differences to light where if the game was balanced around top 10 or 5% it would be much healtheir for the community and build a good sentiment around wow that isnt constantly dooming

fierce elm
#

The only ”meta” issue is tank right now

wheat jay
#

brother, dps specs are not even that unbalanced now

#

you can see every class doing +20 keys

fierce elm
#

Literally the only spec issue is tanks lmfao

wheat jay
#

ye

fierce elm
#

DPS is fine across the board generally

wheat jay
#

brm too good

fierce elm
#

But you are objectively playing a fuckton worse spec by not playing brew

wheat jay
#

okay, 1% is now all 17s timed

#

not all even

#

16/17

jovial torrent
#

and it will continue to rise, no point argueing over that now

wheat jay
#

imma send spec distribution of 17+ keys

fierce elm
#

There is also this point of ”Maybe 1% isnt for everybody”

wheat jay
fierce elm
#

Considering the reward track for M+ is good up until 3.4

wheat jay
#

oh my there's even enh shamans

fierce elm
#

that makes the leap to 1% fairly okay

wheat jay
#

the leap, at least right now is MUCH closer than any pvp bracket where jump is from elite to 0.1% xD

#

oh btw, feral is also there, doing highest keys in the world right now

#

#1 team is literally arms outlaw feral

#

xD

jovial torrent
#

im not argueing it isnt possible, bu its still a fucking stupid decision

fierce elm
#

Why

wheat jay
#

guardian slipped its way into highest keys as tank, doing +21s

fierce elm
#

Genuine question

wheat jay
#

ret is doing +21s too

#

bm hunter doing +20s

jovial torrent
#

it adds more pressure to play meta

wheat jay
#

balance druid too, so both druid dps specs

fierce elm
#

(nvm that the game isnt balanced around those 1% but often the specs they play are just better than the others)

fierce elm
wheat jay
#

AND WE FOUND SHADOW PRIEST AYOOOOOOOOO

fierce elm
#

As someone who plays non-meta right now

wheat jay
#

prot warr doing +20s too

#

dont mind me im just looking at top keys done, they're by timer and level of key

#

found hpala doing 20s too

#

can't see blood dk for shit tho

#

@fierce elm im sorry 🙁

jovial torrent
#

they specifically released a nerfed raid , pruned classes to make the game more accessable, then they go the complete opposite direction with rewards and slam in a bunch of top 1% stuff, they need to just pick a lane

wheat jay
#

those work together tho

fierce elm
#

Those do work together

wheat jay
#

pruned classes means the skill ceiling between top dogs and regular players is lower

jovial torrent
#

u 2 clearly dont want to change your stance on anything so i really cba to argue over this

fierce elm
#

What

wheat jay
#

cuz you dont need to track 50 buffs and 100 more different things to perform well

fierce elm
#

I genuinely asked for your argument over why introducing 1% was an off-decision

wheat jay
#

dh for example is by design one of the easiest specs in the game

fierce elm
#

I know discussions generally wont change anyones mind

#

But I’d love to hear some sort of argument why 1% cant exist alongside the rest

wheat jay
#

game is more accessible, but blizz also fixed the long standing issue of m+ being worthless except for doing +10s for vault

fierce elm
#

You are one of the rare I have found that think opposite to the stream and thats interesting

jovial torrent
#

since shadowlands blizz, content creators, people have been talking about making the game more accessable , able to play what class u want, spec u want, adding 1% rewards makes it waaaay harder to do that

#

remember when everyone jumped ship to ff14 and loved that savage was more accesable, u could play what u want ect, no trash u hop into the game at raid boss

fierce elm
#

So the argument boils down to that it builds up towards playing meta-specs and that pressure

wheat jay
#

you can play what class you want tho, as there is every class, and almost every spec at the very top 0.1%, not even 1%

jovial torrent
#

u craft raid gear

wheat jay
#

and for people that don't raid, you can get mythic gear from m+ with bonus rolls too

jovial torrent
#

i just think if blizz designed around top 10% rewards and focused on the mmo grind ascpect a bit more than the twitch gamer fps top 1% mentality it would be better overall for the games design and fun

wheat jay
#

you don't even need that mythic gear, as I was doing above 1% keys in with lfr pieces?

#

10% is the 2500, 3000, and 3400 reward tho, there's no racing there

fierce elm
jovial torrent
#

yeh i agree that ppl will meta nomatter what

fierce elm
#

Does this mean people chase it more? Maybe, probably

jovial torrent
#

blizz shouldnt cave into that mentality tho

fierce elm
#

But blizz havent really caved in how keys look

pseudo herald
#

U get more gear then crest to upgrade, does it matter if an item is 276hc oder 276myth cuz u cant spend crest?

fierce elm
#

The amount that will get the 1% is a fairly low population, nor is the game balanced around that the same way its not balanced around RWF

fierce elm
#

Its just that people will meta pick what the top dudes are doing regardless

wheat jay
#

as of now

fierce elm
#

This 1% is more for the hardcore community

#

Bridging the gap between 3k and title

jovial torrent
#

gotta say heroic lura being harder than half the mythic bosses is so fucking stupid lol

wheat jay
#

its always the case tho

fierce elm
#

Because even 3.4k to title is a big leap

wheat jay
#

hc ansurek was harder than first 4 mythic in s1 tww

#

nzoth hc was harder than first 4-5 mythic bosses in nyalotha

fierce elm
#

I do get the argument, but there is a playerbase up there that needs something. I think the 3.4 achievement is a GREAT way to push people further. I think 1% is a great way to bridge the gap between 3.4 and 0.1%

wheat jay
#

also, hello denathrius?

#

hello sylvanas

#

hello jailer

fierce elm
#

I have never tried pushing keys because it was 3k or title and nothing else

jovial torrent
#

it seems harder this time, i couldnt imagine carrying my dad gamer guild through hc lura

wheat jay
#

okay, in all fairness

jovial torrent
#

they overbuffed the fuck out of last 2 bosses cus of rwf

pseudo herald
fierce elm
wheat jay
#

i did hc lura, it is difficult, you need one person calling mechanic

fierce elm
#

There is a ton of things going on

#

The 5 people that carry crystals have to know what they are doing, the rest of the raid also has stuff to deal with

#

The only ones having it easy are tanks lmao

wheat jay
#

but p2 is easy af

#

p3 is easy af

fierce elm
#

Ignore Artji because he is always gonna say stuff like this lmfao

wheat jay
#

hardest part was telling people to stand still on marks, and not chase the planets xD

fierce elm
#

Lura is objectively a hard fight

wheat jay
#

that kinda thing

pseudo herald
wheat jay
#

when wiping it for a bit, it is a VERY scripted fight

jovial torrent
#

easy af , i can guarenteed 50% of my guildies wont kill it untill they are max free myth gear from vault and rocking the 10% bonus dmg stacking thing and after a few more hc lura nerfs

wheat jay
#

its chaotic in how many effects there are

wheat jay
#

it is heroic final boss of the patch

#

it should be difficult

jovial torrent
#

i kind of disagree, theres grinding and getting gud for a challenge, then theres so much of a wall that casuals unsub

jovial torrent
#

and thats bad for wow

wheat jay
#

i think we're thinking kinda wrong about it, im thinking too elitist, you too casual

fierce elm
#

Yall need to bridge the gap a bit

wheat jay
#

in terms of accessibility of clearing the raid

jovial torrent
#

im kind of counter balancing your argument

#

i just want them to push away from the 1% mentality

wheat jay
#

in my eyes heroic end boss should be difficult

jovial torrent
#

and make the game more fun overall for everyone

wheat jay
#

players need something to strive for

jovial torrent
#

and if that means aiming to make top 20 or top 10% players more happy, do that

fierce elm
#

There is a very thin line to balance content

wheat jay
#

and for most guilds in the game thats curve

#

if you give it away for free, it loses its flavour

fierce elm
#

Because all of this is fine and dandy, but player retention is a huge factor

magic wing
#

Hc rn is worthless

wheat jay
#

especially since we're gonna have like 20% more damage

#

at the end of season

#

in raids

fierce elm
#

And the ones unsubbing because they cant hit 1% will be counteracted by the people that stay subbed between 3k and 3.4k

magic wing
#

I do it for logs and crests

jovial torrent
#

thats where they need to move to evergreen content, like ffxiv u can do ultimate raids from any expac cus gear scales and still get reward from it, without it being fomo

fierce elm
pseudo herald
fierce elm
wheat jay
#

youre not missing out on anything

jovial torrent
#

yes

magic wing
#

I wanna do old content

jovial torrent
#

u lose curve mount

fierce elm
#

But 3k to 3.4k is a big step

fierce elm
#

Only achieve

wheat jay
#

ye

#

curve mount is last boss of expansion

fierce elm
#

So its achieve+gear

magic wing
#

The best boss fight Ive ever did was in FFXIV that priest boss hardmode

wheat jay
#

gear worthless, achieve worthless

magic wing
#

Imagine just going old mythic bosses with actual difficulty

wheat jay
#

its a feat of strength i guess

fierce elm
#

I dont even care about the achieve or gear personally, I just enjoy the people I raid with

jovial torrent
#

did they do curve mount for more than last expac raid?

magic wing
#

And scaled rewards

jovial torrent
#

i dont remember i swear some expacs they had a curve mount for each raid

fierce elm
wheat jay
wheat jay
#

none

#

boss mount, maybe, but curve mount is only in last raid

jovial torrent
#

anyway, point is in .3 there will be a curve, and that will be gone, where they could make it evergreen content

fierce elm
#

There are Mythic mounta that can be argued are fomo but those can be gotten later

wheat jay
#

afaik since garrosh

urban skiff
#

we pumpin' @fierce elm

fierce elm
wheat jay
#

garrosh had that korkron wolf

#

and since then its only last boss of expac

fierce elm
#

Garrosh was the first curve mount

#

iirc

wheat jay
#

yep

pseudo herald
urban skiff
#

yea

fierce elm
#

So the only thing you are missing out on is achievement and gear

pseudo herald
#

Are u a 5 stack?

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

Gear that is entirely mid at least in Luras case if you do M10s

#

Or M8*

magic wing
jovial torrent
#

apparently savage difficulty in ffxiv is about 10-25% of the playerbase, mythic raid in wow is 2% get curve

wheat jay
#

.3 mount being fomo is also fine, there's like 700 mounts now, so some of them being fomo is okay, you played that content, you did the thing, you pushed for that heroic clear

magic wing
#

Que thing like ffxiv

wheat jay
#

every patch

#

every season

fierce elm
#

Is curve really 2%

wheat jay
#

forever

jovial torrent
#

why cant wow bridge the middle gap and make mythic raid accessable to 5 or 10%

fierce elm
#

at the end of a patch

wheat jay
#

becuase its mythic

urban skiff
#

we'

wheat jay
#

its supposed to be for tryhards

magic wing
#

Dont mean it dropping gear just crests

urban skiff
#

@pseudo herald we've got a tank heal and aug

pseudo herald
#

I only got plate chars, can trade u gear - got nothing to do

wheat jay
urban skiff
#

sure thing

wheat jay
#

roleplayers maybe

fierce elm
jovial torrent
#

like if ppl mythic raided they would probs be more invested in watching race, but very inaccessable atm

wheat jay
#

brother

jovial torrent
#

yeh im not saying noone can, im just saying more people probs should be able to

wheat jay
#

race is literally #1 event in wow

jovial torrent
#

and it would be better for teh health of the game

pseudo herald
#

Ill be online at :45 Ezlife-blackrock

urban skiff
wheat jay
#

it had like 500k viewers on twitch alone

#

at the same time

#

not even half of those people will get CE

fierce elm
#

I am also off the opinion that some things arent meant for everyone to get RIGHT NOW

jovial torrent
#

and wow has a playerbase many times over that so why arent they getting 5m viewers

wheat jay
#

because vast majority of wow players are casuals

#

doing their +10

jovial torrent
#

right

fierce elm
#

is the same argument

wheat jay
#

doing their heroic raid at slow relaxing pace

jovial torrent
#

league gets alot more than wow thats for sure lol

fierce elm
#

Yeah it also has a way bigger playerbase

jovial torrent
#

maybe a little less past few years with t1 winning everything

fierce elm
#

Like WAY bigger

jovial torrent
#

and its way bigger because they actually work around balancing the game for gold rating better

fierce elm
#

Plus, lets be real, rwf is not the best content to watch straight up

jovial torrent
#

and other factors ofc like sub accessability of not needing to level chars

fierce elm
#

Im saying that as someone who loves League

jovial torrent
#

yeh i play league too

fierce elm
#

but the champs arent balanced around gold/plat players

wheat jay
#

league is 100% balanced for like diamond+ xD

jovial torrent
#

a bunch of them are

wheat jay
#

or masters

jovial torrent
#

they have simpler chars , most tank top laners, supports ect

fierce elm
#

Which is why there is such a huge champ difference to master+ and Platinum

wheat jay
#

as that bracket is where balancing matters

jovial torrent
#

chars like amumu

fierce elm
#

Its also a simpler game in general

wheat jay
#

low elo it doesnt matter for people

urban skiff
jovial torrent
#

they 100% do make balance changes with lower brackets in mind and them some chars they make balance changes with top level in mind, like azir and ryze

fierce elm
#

But anyways, every game is walking the thin line of balancing casuals/semihardcore/hardcore

pseudo herald
fierce elm
#

Which is why certain goals arent gotten by certain people

jovial torrent
#

pretty much, i just think wow should push away from the 1% a bit more than they are currently

fierce elm
#

League has these, WoW has these

jovial torrent
#

they were starting to do it, but then backtracked randomly

fierce elm
#

They added two achievements to a gamemode that was dying post 3k

jovial torrent
#

they want to get the classic wow community to retail

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

and this has given M+ a less falloff

#

Because your average 3k guy has a reason to keep going for 3.4k

#

and at 3.4k they can decide if they want 1% or not

jovial torrent
#

i feel like m+ is the most played gamemode in wow atm and for quite a while, mythic raids and pvp past 2k

fierce elm
#

But nobody should feel limited because of spec chosen, alas that is the type of online world we live in

fierce elm
#

But it also drops off a cliff at 3k

#

Or it used to

jovial torrent
#

id argue its that way because its more casually accessable

#

which is lacking in other aspects of the game

fierce elm
#

The same way raids drop off a cliff at curve

urban skiff
#

@pseudo herald here

urban skiff
#

gogo

fierce elm
urban skiff
jovial torrent
#

personally i think thats the big problem, they want retention and MAU and the way they go about it is wrong

fierce elm
#

As someone who used to hit 3k and quit because there was no rewards*

fierce elm
urban skiff
#

Tennis is just engaging in player retention by spreading out all the tournaments 😄

fierce elm
jovial torrent
#

its the mentality of less ppl playing more vs more ppl dipping in and out same MAU logins but very different games

#

by making it fun and possible to do on alts is one way

#

but imo i think that the game could be better when ppl feel like they can step away from wow and come back to it like a month later

fierce elm
#

Whats the point of getting to 3k on an alt if you already have it on your main

#

There are no rewards there, nothing to gain except player power that gives you nothing new except you can do the same dungeons on a different spec

jovial torrent
#

there was a interview with yoshi p where he said he is happy for people and encourages ppl to take break fromt he ffxiv grind unsub a few months and come back, wow is the complete opposite mentality and design aspect, U MUST grind every week for vaults ect

#

the point is its a game and they should make it fun to do so

#

not drag you along with badges and treats

fierce elm
#

But, whats the point if there is no reward

jovial torrent
#

thats overall where i think games have gone to shit

#

noones in it for the love of the game anymore, its all social media prestiege and rewards

fierce elm
#

Yeah

#

And that is tied to another philosophy more about the game industry as a whole

urban skiff
#

@pseudo herald mendora is our wife by the way

fierce elm
#

Unfortunately the game has to be looked at through this lens

jovial torrent
#

the game industry is kind of shifting

fierce elm
#

Thus, giving this moment where past 3k there isnt anything without these achievements

jovial torrent
#

if u look at the rise and popularity of party games

pseudo herald
urban skiff
jovial torrent
#

and indy games, they are taking a huge margin of steam sales now

fierce elm
#

Thus leading back to the thing again, whats the point at that level

jovial torrent
#

like more games were spent on AA games on steam than AAA games this year or somthing like that

#

less on games as a service, more on short experience type games

#

mmo's and games as a service are losing popularity overall

#

and i think chasing the 1% grind type players is the reason for that

fierce elm
#

WoW is peaking higher than TWW so far

#

which peaked higher than DF

#

which peaked higher than SL

jovial torrent
#

ye but classic gamemodes are dieing and ppl are shuffling back to retail, i skipped half of SL and all of DF to play classic exclusively

fierce elm
#

Yeah I cant comment on that because I dont play classic

jovial torrent
#

so maybe more in retail but less wow players overall

fierce elm
#

But Retail has been popping off since DF

#

Compared to SL and BfA

jovial torrent
#

or maybe more overall dunno, the worlds pretty shit atm so im sure more ppl would rather play mmo than go out to bars

fierce elm
#

This does sound more like gripes with games rather than WoW overall

jovial torrent
#

kind of, i am very done with gacha, paid dlc, microtransactions ect

fierce elm
#

Makes sense

jovial torrent
#

u could get a full voice acted expansion of gw1 for like £30 that had multiple armour sets ect that werent locked behind the in game shop

wheat jay
#

im back

jovial torrent
#

the real question is can i be assed to q shuffle right now and have my teammates randomly get domed by MM hunters, disc priest is slightly better now since mw was nerfed but is that enough

wheat jay
#

had to do shit at work smh

urban skiff
#

ez life pangolife

wheat jay
#

that toy is so funny xD

wheat jay
#

with elite sets being 100h of grinding for one

#

sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh

jovial torrent
#

i still need to grab that toy

wheat jay
#

but man warrior elite kurzick armor was just next level clean design

pseudo herald
#

i just wanna be undercover between bm pets

jovial torrent
#

im sure the second i grab it the cd will be nerfed

wheat jay
#

@fierce elm i found dk

#

dk is doing 19s 🙁

urban skiff
#

why can i only pick these up sometimes?

jovial torrent
#

yeh elite kurzic with felblade, then switched it up with some primeval

wheat jay
#

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

jovial torrent
#

u have to cc those

wheat jay
#

i have primeval set in gw2 😄

pseudo herald
#

just cc em, knock up and back will trigger

wheat jay
#

and so on

#

silence

#

i believe you can knock them up, or racial sweep

jovial torrent
#

the visual wasnt very clear for me either lol, the first time i went to run over tham i got the buff cus someone happened to leg sweep or somthing as a ran over em

#

u can kick , knockup daze stun ect

wheat jay
#

I wonder how gw3 will work

#

Hopefully b2p again

#

Cuz man f2p games always have some p2w shit like lost ark:(

jovial torrent
#

yeh im not sure, i kind of hope its a bit like u buy the game and they release story packs/dlc

wheat jay
#

Ye like gw2

jovial torrent
#

should probs make it f2p till like mid max lvl

#

after a few months

wheat jay
#

Trial ye

jovial torrent
#

imagine 2030 we get riot mmo and gw3 lol

likewise, if you get stuck with a 1 pull tank then it's sleep city

jovial torrent
#

whats the mobility like, u stuck casting in place alot?

#

wana play arcane but u are rooted to the ground for most of your rotation

urban skiff
#

half the rotation is just movement

jovial torrent
#

damn, stop selling me aug!

urban skiff
#

you can cast hover while casting your spells so you don't even have to cancel to move, except the charged spells

#

hang on, i can stream it

urban skiff
#

shit almost got that grip

jovial torrent
#

im just impressed i managed to go into midnight wanting to play the classes that eneded up being the most buggy/badly designed. might even have to actually level and gear a pve war

#

im sure they will fix dk at some point tho, not sure they will manage to fix arcane before .1

fierce elm
#

Where the 100 gecs stream

fierce elm
#

Shit is absurd lmfao

jovial torrent
#

its honestly impressive how badly they broke the ghouls getting buffed

fierce elm
#

It is wild

jovial torrent
#

buffed 1 at a time which takes longer than the actual duration of army lol

urban skiff
jovial torrent
#

dots literally doing nothing

fierce elm
#

It worked before with only dread plague being bugged

wheat jay
jovial torrent
#

making DnD back into a part of the goddamn rotation

wheat jay
#

told them to use the 45sec cooldown and then army, and apparently that fixes it

jovial torrent
#

yeh , theres a thing where all your ghouls would get buffed, but it was also buffing they player that they didnt want

#

so when they fixed that they broke it completely, so now it buffs each ghoul one at a time per gcd

wheat jay
#

lmao

jovial torrent
#

rather than just buffing all ghouls

wheat jay
#

brother dh had two big bugs

#

one, they didnt nerf talent like they said in notes, 2nd devour was giving double the fury in meta

#

xD

jovial torrent
#

the other is when ur hero spec mograine does his thing it makes ur big dot dread plague or whatever do 0 dmg

wheat jay
#

so dh was doing way too much dmg hahahaha

jovial torrent
#

this patch was supposed to be like a 6% buff its ended up being like a 15% nerf to rider

#

its ok tho cus every time dk or somthing gets bugged it delays them working on spriest keks

urban skiff
#

who's my other viewer?

fierce elm
#

Buff to pets not working, hero talent bugging out highest damage plague

#

Putrefy sometimes missing

#

the dt pet just gaining random attack soeed

#

Gargoyle just fuck offing into nowhere

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

thats fixed

#

lmao

#

Here are the bugs so far

jovial torrent
#

what was the hpala nerf, did they break armaments

#

or was it judgement related

fierce elm
#

Pretty sure it was both but I can be wrong

#

Blood dk got a bug that is a buff lmao

jovial torrent
#

woudlnt be suprised, hpala is miserable in shuffle might not actually play it past 1800 for the mog

urban skiff
jovial torrent
#

did they remove that from just pala?

green anchor
#

but he's not been on for a while

wheat jay
#

well, dh got fixed, i wonder if warcraftlogs will delete logs from this week

#

as they've done that few times in the past

#

or rather invalidate them

#

as everything is bugged as fuck xD

jovial torrent
#

lol, they probs should

#

they need to enable moutins in amirdrasill raid sheesh, such a walk without spammable mobility

#

guna see if coucil is actually soloable now

wheat jay

Did afro break 3400 yet?

thats what i thought

Afro is getting carried by echo too

wheat jay

i have done like 2-3 16 keys with afro

pseudo herald

did he swap arms already?

wheat jay
#

afro is a tank

#

blood dk

lavish quest
#

No, I showed him the truth and the light of tanking

wheat jay
#

tanking keys is fun

#

tanking raids is not fun

lavish quest
#

Tanking raids is great

#

Raiding is not great

wheat jay
#

nah

#

raid dpsing is cool

#

cuz you can get some decent logs you know

lavish quest
#

Eh, I'm not a log chaser

wheat jay
#

its fun

lavish quest
#

I just like the control/being the big brain one

wheat jay
#

good luck on mythic salhadar

#

its basically a tank boss

lavish quest
#

I don't generally bother with mythic anymore

#

May pug myth chim

jovial torrent
#

logs are fun but man the gimmicks and stuff ppl do, padding, getting ppl to not attack stuff , certain class stacks, power infusion

young bone
#

dps is a team effort

jovial torrent
#

parsing in sod was really fun but also really silly just kill time, can u kill the boss before ur dps cooldowns run out, or just after ur cd's are back up

#

i was offtanking eranikus as lock so no hope of parsing

wheat jay
#

i think my best parses were nyalotha and nathria

pseudo herald
#

those 2007 bossnames

wheat jay
#

right now its kinda ass

urban skiff
#

@jovial torrent are you sold on auggie yet?

jovial torrent
#

i like the look of it, i just dunno if i can bring myself to grind vault on that many chars

#

i wouldnt mind playing war, healer priest, dk , mage or aug

#

the biggest unfun part of mage is just being paper, in the 15 skyreach i took a big chunk of dmg from the bleed, then i walked up the stairs and got instakilled by a instant shuriken toss

wheat jay
#

that's every classs in high keys

urban skiff
#

I feel like aug is more different

jovial torrent
#

moreso mage tho

wheat jay
#

on 18 seat i got hit by the cat on 2nd boss right as the fight ended and died in 3 ticks

#

on a fairly tanky dh

jovial torrent
#

mage is highest first deaths in raid and m+ i forget what other class was close

#

as u can see, mage is doing very well at being number one floor heater

wheat jay
#

i kinda noticed that classes with either leech or strong defensives tend to sruvive

#

cuz in higher keys leech actaully makes a differnce

jovial torrent
#

u know whats crazy, i have 1 leech piece, and it made up 8% of my mages healing that run

#

i got bis shoulders in vault but i kind of dont want to take them and lose my mythic tier with leech

#

would be nice if we could grind and add leech avoidance to gear if we want

#

or just delete the random affix's other than indestructable

urban skiff
jovial torrent
#

mage is hurtin from versa not being a decent stat, and the removal of mirror img dmg reduction, also lose healing on iceblock

urban skiff
#

so the more damage scales up, the less leech it takes to cover whatever pitiful and unscaling health pool we have

jovial torrent
#

just realised by bars are bugged and the blizzard art bar has returned in a negative alpha

pseudo herald
#

edit mode , enable artthingy - disable again and its gone

What’s all this weapon upgrade stuff I keep seeing? Is it something for PvP or just PvE?

Ah gotcha, still a bit strange tho feels unnecessary when the PvP gearing system was fine before

#

i think its hitting like rsk levels

lavish quest
#

Aside from lag spikes last night, keys were alright at least

elfin surge
#

been seeing a lot of game crashes happening in shuffle

wheat jay
#

Just gotta chill and wait for fixes thats all

#

They already fixed like half of new bugs

pseudo herald
wheat jay
#

And ye crashes are from addons so not on blizz i guess

elfin surge
#

my nameplates were bugged on tuesday not showing cast bars which sucked

#

addons are cooked

pseudo herald
#

is shuffle mmr uncapped yet?

jovial torrent
#

nope , slowly getting like +100 ea week

pseudo herald
#

well im not tilting myself then

jovial torrent
#

it is possible to hit elite, if ur literally like top 3 at ur spec

wheat jay
#

In 2 weeks

#

Or 3

pseudo herald
#

im the kind of player that gets 2.4 end off season , but before that im not skilled enough

wheat jay
#

Passive mmr gain

jovial torrent
#

ive accepted next time i q priest imguna randomly lose a bunch then have to reclimb

wheat jay
#

Probably easier in 3s

jovial torrent
#

yeh 3v3 is like capped at 2600 and shuffle around 2300

worldly oriole
#

no idea bro. but I think it chunks hardest on rapid fire @jovial torrent

wheat jay
#

but noone to play 3s with

worldly oriole
#

there's a talent that makes rapid fire cast a black arrow i think

jovial torrent
#

gaddamn

#

honestly good for me, i just need to convince artji to play mm, not dirty surv 😛

worldly oriole
#

I should read more lol

that guy was naked

#

black arrow hits like a truck

how much does it crit, like 100-150k right>?

black arrow gives like 100% of their tier set bonus now or somthing

a lot of it

pseudo herald
jovial torrent
#

"Precise Shots has been updated – No longer reduces the global cooldown and no longer provides bonuses to auto shot. Damage bonus reduced to 50% (was 100%). Now affects Kill Shot and Black Arrow at 100% effectiveness." this was the change that buffed it

wheat jay
#

24% healing over 6s

#

2 charges

#

30s cd

#

so

#

it MIGHT be decent now

north thicket
#

wasn't the plan to build this Ascendant Nilhammer first? whatever it is, few weeks

wheat jay
#

pvp and pve use different things afaik

jovial torrent
#

not really a big deal pvp getting it early since u cant really use the wep in pve

fierce elm
#

It would be what, 270 something now?

#

273?

#

If it upgrades the track too, idk if it does

pseudo herald
#

it only affects the scalerd ilvl

fierce elm
#

Ah yeah makes sense

jovial torrent
#

inb4 raids are bugged and count u as in pvp if u have warmode flagged

wheat jay
#

would be nice

#

i'd have more dmg keks

north thicket
#

so damage seen yesterday in few random bgs played is amplified not only by the class bugs/buffs but also the new weapons

jovial torrent
#

id be cheeky and take my priest into m+ with all my pvp gear

#

most ppl wont have wep yet

fierce elm
#

MM is entirelt due to changes

north thicket
#

pfff what a mess

wheat jay
#

for sure

#

+10s are doable in honor gear

jovial torrent
#

i dunno why this makes me laugh so much, but outlaw rogues have became fartmancers, needing to sit in their cloud for bonus dmg, and all party members can see it
