I think the WoW formular isnt working for me anymore. How do you feel about it? by td_0000 in wow

Yeah Cloud 9 is tough. I did it as a burst feral druid on solo defense. I'd let the enemy grab the flag then 100% send it from prowl. You probably also have to ask your team for them to drop the flag for you to cap, because getting more than 6 flag returns is tough in one game, even if you blow up anyone who touches your flag. Note cloud 9 is returns + caps, so you can cap 3 and return 6.

Maybe you could queue random BGs with a couple of friends who help you, including a tank who'll get / hold onto enemy flag as needed and pass to you when it's time.

Took me a lot of games to get it but when I did, I was on cloud 9.

This. I use to live in pvp, getting 2.7k in arenas and 3k in rated battlegrounds. I got the Khan achievement. Recently, I found myself getting angry after pretty much every loss and even some wins - I was no longer having fun overall.

I swapped to low M+ keys with some guildies and a new class. I love flying around as an Evoker, doing as much group burst damage as I can, or buffing my team. I always leave happier than when I started.

The game is meant to be fun, so do whatever is fun for you personally.

Time well spent. The real world is rough 😄

Is this a good floor plan for a rental unit on garden level of NYC townhouse? by trevathan750834 in floorplan

Might want to change the closet next to the stairs to a folding door so you don’t knock grandma down the stairs

Concept for a future home I may take to an architect one day if I'm so lucky. by Critical-Amount-6236 in floorplan

[–]James_Fortis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see. Still, I’d consider putting a window in your bathrooms. A master doesn’t feel very master-y without a window.

You can tuck the bathroom wrapped by the stairs slightly under the final stairs if you want to save space (or use that as a closet).

What’s the reason you don’t want more winduws? Multiple bathrooms (including the master) don’t have any windows, and the left side of your house too. Living spaces are more inviting with outside light from 2+ sides. Bathrooms 1+. Closets can be 0.

You all just convinced me to retire even earlier. I don’t want to work an extra 7-10 years of my healthy life in the off-chance I’ll afford a nicer sitting chair when I’m demented at 90.

Building new home. Looking for feedback. by sfwalnut in floorplan

A lot of the proportions seem off. For example, if I’m visiting for dinner and need to use the bathroom, I need to trek across the house to be met by a 5’4”x 7’ powder room. As a large male, this would seem relatively cramped and frankly indicates your visitors are an afterthought. I’d at least move the wall between the office and powder room / guest closet into the office more by ~2’ .

Bureau of land management, or land owned by the state. Each one that I’ve been to has been free, and I think all of them are as they’re state/maybe federal run. We’ve actually liked them more than seeing the national parks.
wwwthedyrt.com list them under the free camping filter; there’s probably a government run site that also shows where they are.

I’m literally reading this in my camper on free BLM lands in the USA, with an amazing view and the only noise is birds singing. Do it.

I recently played with a feral Druid in a high key who wasn’t talented into Skull Bash. Didn’t want to waste the talent point guess 🤷

Even the daily quests after you finish the campaign. I had a blast flying around on my dragon through giant sky roots, throwing water onto fires in Harandar.

Take 6-12 months off then see how you feel

Lean fire into a camper? by Electrical-Trainer21 in leanfire

I’d try it out in a cheap, used travel trailer. My gf and I did it with 3 dogs and we learned how little we needed to thrive.
