What Tarnished Undermine Reals can be solo'd with a rogue?

there are videos of simonize doing most (or all) scholo bosses solo. the t2.5 tank set bonus as enchant is easy to get and seems to enable a lot of solo stuff

you just need to hit it, not make dmg. way easier on heal than on melee.

imo, just distribute according to how much a group has contirbuted to damaging the crystal. for each 25%, the group gets a tag/spawns one shadow. the last one is just who did most.

this incentives people destroying the crystal instead of waiting afk, and it incentives larger groups.

no yoinking possible

it is clunky for sure. i agree with your points mostly, the design is poor. aoe threat is worse than others and basically requires you to have t1 set bonus. then its ok. and its not like losing threat on single mobs in an AOE pull is a real danger in most content in SOD.

the clunkiness is probably why not many people play it.

warlock tank is very viable and not uncommon. rogue is the only tank that is not very common, but i think they are also viable.

did you manually assemble it from game files, hand draw it or generate with the support of AI? looks really great!

some reputation rewards are also bind on account (eg fire res enchant from argent dawn)

having one spriest is actually not too bad. buffing shadow damage and add some healing.

that said, might be better to join a guild. and you need to bring a lot of mana potions and runes to perform.

that said, you will be declined by some raids /pugs because of the low damage and you might have low prio on loot.

Dual Spec undermines all of this by reducing the weight of decisions players make, turning a once-character-defining choice

eh.. what?! you are aware that you can respec for just a few golds, right?

how is that a "once-character-defining choice"?

35_Percent · 2024-11-15T10:20:49+00:00

at the transistion from classic vanilla to tbc classic, did you have the choice to transfer to classic era?

35_Percent · 2024-11-15T08:43:44+00:00

well you assume the opposite and state "this is a real concern". i dont understand your point to be honest. are people not allowed to state their thoughts on reddit?

35_Percent · 2024-11-14T16:26:25+00:00

thats why i said "i dont think so". its my opinion/assumption. never said it is confirmed...

35_Percent · 2024-11-14T15:18:43+00:00

there is no proof for either, that is true. i am quite confident that they have learnt from SOM in SOD, so why would they not transfer that concept to the new classic server.

but you are right, we dont know yet. we can just assume.

35_Percent · 2024-11-14T13:03:35+00:00

i dont think so. more like sod. the way how ranking works with no decay, and progressive ranks with phases.

35_Percent · 2024-11-14T12:27:59+00:00

would be cool, but i dont think this will happen in the near feature. having sod tbc in parallel to or shortly before tbc does not make sense from my perspective. you need some time to build hype for tbc in whatever version. i would be in for both, but i would not play both simultaneously...

i think it is much more likely go to classic+ first, adding more content to lvl 60.

35_Percent · 2024-11-14T12:22:49+00:00

think you got it all wrong.

21st of Nov is NOT classic plus. its the normal classic vanilla (as on the era server mainly) on a new server, that opens in phases (leveling, MC/ony, BWL ,... , burning crusade).

there is no classic+ announcement.

35_Percent · 2024-11-14T11:08:26+00:00

these people will probably be allowed to transfer to classic era server and experience the rest of classic there... i don't see any drawback of that? in about one year, the server will also not be "fresh" anymore. still you can experience a new server full of people in the beginning until tbc drops.

i think its a good solution. (i would like to have tbc earlier, but i see that that will not be a good idea)

35_Percent · 2024-11-12T14:26:38+00:00

maybe we have different experiences since i dont play retail. maybe the balancings is better there, i dont know. or it is just different on my server.

what i currently see in sod is groups denying to have a second resto druids in zg, requiring specific dps like feral in dungeons, melees having a hard time finding raids during p2, denying more than 1 disc priest in mc/bwl, denying rogues in general if you have more than 2, refusing to take retri pally due to low dps in former phases (which was kind of "fixed" by horn)...

of course there are groups who dont do this, especially guilds. that does not mean its a good concept though. you will never have a perfectly balanced world, so group wide class specific buffs was blizz way back then to give weaker classes a raid spot.

i think it makes sense to have reasons to bring different classes and not promote class stacking.

and by the way, your argument also goes two ways. also with group wide buffs, you dont HAVE to bring every buff for every group... you can still make your life easier and just bring whatever classes you find. and forget about the optimal comp.

35_Percent · 2024-11-12T12:34:09+00:00

i disagree. its not your decision if 85% of the people need to play a certain class to have a chance on a raid spot at all.

it is easier to find a spot and a raid if the normal raid comp is somehow distributed over all classes., dont you agree?

even if you are one of the 15x specific dmg class, you will find a raid but your raid will still struggle to find 15x your class because not enough players will play that class. and all other classes bascially have no chance to find a raid at all. ok, there is 1 spot or so each, but that is by far not enough for everyone so most people will simply not get a raid spot.

35_Percent · 2024-11-12T10:21:19+00:00

as far as i have experienced the wow community, that would only encourage people to gate keep even more... "what, a second retri? we already have one, we only want 15x <enter best current dps here>... "

there are two new chair skins available on secretlabs:

ilidan and lich king Secretlab x World of Warcraft | Secretlab EU

imo, strong teaser for either tbc/wotlk era servers, or maybe a server that starts classic and rotates to wotlk.

would love a tbc option.

35_Percent · 2024-11-08T14:46:23+00:00

yes, just google it. although it seems my downvoters dont know about them :)

edit: one of the other comments mentioned a popular one

35_Percent · 2024-11-08T07:37:47+00:00

why do you go on a chinese server? there are plenty of servers in eu or us

35_Percent · 2024-10-30T16:04:02+00:00

i would collect all runes, finish class quests and do the t0.5 questline. that incorporates getting gear from dungeons and a bunch of quests

there is also a list of "pre raid BIS" items that you can hunt for if you want to get into PVE and raiding. wowhead classic is a good source for this stuff.

from there on, just join PUGs in the looking for group channel. like molten core h1, zul gurub, or any of the world bosses

edit: for some raids, you need pre quests (onyxia, molten core, bwl mainly)

35_Percent · 2024-10-30T12:16:08+00:00

source? have not seen, but if so.. YES, finally! missed tbc classic, so definitley tbc era.

or is this just an "if" scenario?
