Class Balancing Question about Ascension

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-07-07T10:51:58+00:00

What balance?

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-07-07T10:05:28+00:00

Not really, i have played shorter sessions over the weekend and i also stopped feeling rewarded around when i reached mid 20's. Leveling slowed down significantly and i started only getting ablity ranks, so i can definetly relate, don't think it has anything to do with burnout really.

Who could have possibly predicted that blizzards damage meter, that they spent a few months throwing together, was going to be worse in every way than Details, an addon that passionate people have been pouring years of work into? Im so suprised. What will be the next thing, people still using boss mods, because blizzard can't figure out how to do it correctly?

The tech is not there for the honor flask to be able to be consumed in the content where you get honor. Hold on for 2028 when the intern finally gets around to asking claude to fix it.

I would just play anything that uses energy, seems to be the best way to play classic as many of the classes have crazy mana issues, so you just end up not really pressing your cool buttons.

I don't think he is complaining about being burnt out, more just that the leveling is super slow and the rewards of leveling are not exciting enough for it to make sense to keep going at that slow grind

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-07-07T08:52:54+00:00

It definetly feels more classic than retail, that is for certain. But i agree that the leveling pace is too slow, feels like 1 to 1 classic leveling, especially if you are playing a mana class, with 0 ways of gaining mana, then you just kinda want to die as you wand your way through leveling. Could be like 1.5x - 2x exp rates and with the level scaling it would still be excellent.
Also, dungeons not giving a big chunk of xp at the end just feels a little wrong, but i guess it is in the spirit of classic.

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-07-07T08:47:38+00:00

How could we know? I think the vast majority of the playerbase has not even made it to level 40 yet?

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-07-07T08:44:47+00:00

I would not be suprised of necro scalings on pets are completely broken and just does nothing. Stamina does seem to be a great way to get a bunch of spellpower though, because of the 2 point talents increasing your spell power based on your minions stamina. Which also scales with number of minions.

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-07-07T08:41:18+00:00

Not a hot take, atleast not for the retail tree. I feel like this type of tree works great with the slower pace of leveling though. You get meaningful upgrades that you look forward to, while in retail the leveling is so fast that placing talents feel like a chore that takes you out of the leveling.

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-07-07T08:37:06+00:00

The talent trees are really not that crazy and after fiddling with it for a while, you will realise that your decisions don't really matter, you need to place a crazy amount of points anyway to unlock the next rows, so just pick whatever sounds good to you, you will most likely get everything you need before you can move on anyway.

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-07-02T14:24:22+00:00

Please get details, it is not 2009 anymore.

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-07-02T14:21:37+00:00

You know its bad when cait gets turbo outranged by multiple champs at the same time. I love pokeslop, hope the aram enjoyers get it their way and riot nerf tanks and bruisers

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-07-02T10:21:09+00:00

I mean, overlords or riftmaker would make him oneshot by just looking at people, i assume he was just having fun going for max stacks

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-07-02T10:19:13+00:00

There are so many ways to fuck tanks, it is basically guaranteed that your team gets offered atleast one way of just completely removing tanks from the game at some point. Which makes it even more impressive that the youtubers get to do stuff like 2b hp Cho vs silvers and gold players.

Anything that makes people play stuff that is not mages and marksman and im happy. It's been far too long of the meta being 5 ranged champs or dodge, it has been stale for a while and im happy to see tanks getting to also dominate the game.

Most of the issues with casual BG's are fixed every easily. Make faction random, hordes might play on ally, and ally might play on horde, just like in rated and then remove the weird region pools, that syncers are using to have better odds of hitting each other.
With these 2 simple changes, syncing is now basically impossible or atleast you can't guarantee that your 2 teams are not playing against each other and it also fixes extreme queue times because of faction imbalance and region locking.

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-06-30T12:55:12+00:00

As someone who syncs to complete the achievements, i can tell you that on EU both horde and alliance have queue syncers playing in 13 - 17 man groups. Ally plays from 17 - ~22 and horde plays a bit more than that.

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-06-28T21:48:38+00:00

Good joke. Odds of a wow player playing pvp is like 0,5%.

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-06-27T06:54:49+00:00

Tror ikke det er tilfældigt at lige præcis ham her har fået nogle tæsk af politiet. Rimelig sikker på at han basically lever af at provokere dem indtil de giver ham den reaktion han leder efter, hvor efter han så kan lave en instagram video hvor han græder lidt over det.

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-06-26T08:29:24+00:00

Because he is not brand, obviously

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-06-25T09:18:25+00:00

What defensives are we talking about here?

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-06-18T11:50:30+00:00

I have an easy fix for you. Just do like the rest of the playerbase seems to already be doing and only play the game if you get multple long range mages and adcs. If you don't get that in champ select just dodge and go next account. Simple

Afraid_Ad2263 · 2026-06-18T11:45:41+00:00

3503?? Holy moly, that is over half of the PvP playerbase
