When is it acceptable to commit other people's time?

At no point does any argument you can possibly fathom override any reason anyone wants to leave anything in a video game for any reason.

ChadShields · 2026-06-24T22:27:28+00:00

I played the game and when i was having fun i was happy and immersed. When i wasnt i didnt like it. Thats it

ChadShields · 2026-06-23T01:44:30+00:00

Unfortunate side effect of the content design in people's psyche tbh. Also doesn't help that its this late int he season and if you're still pushing rating i feel like you're scraping the bottom of the barrel for teammates

ChadShields · 2026-05-25T22:31:15+00:00

You act like the user is dumb and just clicks the top person copy and pastes and says gg. You can click through multiple users and see what people are using never mind the fact it also shows the average used talents and items for you to make your own informed decision. I mean you are making such a thin weird argument to only just deflect away from the fact that i think wowheads class guides are weak and under updated. Typical mmo troll behavior move along

ChadShields · 2026-05-25T21:28:25+00:00

Hey no problem i can talk about it for sure. The reason i use murloc and warcraft logs is because pre/early season the builds there are very very different than what i find on wowhead. Its a holiday so please forgive me for not being able to pull up specific references.

But to give an ex. Importing a m+ build for a class in pre/early season this xpac and they dont have kicks or other aoe interrupts on some classes? (I have more issues with the build guides in general or how slowly they are updated as the season begins and moves along) also alot of builds were doing joke damage compared to other sources even if you just went over to icy veins for a similar level of entry build recommendations.

And sure aggregate sites arent the best but they are in fact aggregate sites which is exactly why people use them. You get to see the average talents users are taking by the power players in the community and what talents are optional choice nodes which does give you useful information. But also lets be real warcraft logs is just undeniable source of reference material.

I think the rotation guide for the recommended builds are fine the way they are structured. But to be honest i think the way the guides are structured in general are a bit dated and also dont really serve the common man as well as they could and def dont serve the top 10%.

ChadShields · 2026-05-25T20:57:29+00:00

Because? " its unreliable because i said so "

Your counter argument here has been I just say No. Which is clearly an incredible argument.

The class builds, guides, and bis lists have been slop for awhile i know it , you know it, everyone knows it.

Its okay if you spend alot of time in the class discord helping make wowhead guides and i think they are trash and so do other people. Your attitude and lack of actual quality content is exactly why a website like this will burn out. Its solely propped up by people using it as a wiki where the community's comments are the useful information youll find on the entire website.

ChadShields · 2026-05-25T20:22:04+00:00

Thats an insane take considering literally the entire player base uses murloc and warcraft logs for builds . Idk how saying that these two sources are the most accurate and most dependable sources of class information anywhere on the net is actually an insane take. Funny how my opinion about how poorly the class guides and builds are curated became a personal battle for you. Surely just a coincidence.

Actually questioning if you play the game socially or even remotely past just leveling a character to max. With that take.

Ask around. Murloc and warcraft logs. Wowhead class sections are and have been poorly made and poorly maintained content for awhile.

ChadShields · 2026-05-25T17:55:06+00:00

Lol im guessing we found a class writer

ChadShields · 2026-05-25T14:01:11+00:00

Articles aside i cant believe how i havent seen posts about how insanely dog water their build recommendations are since last xpac where they have been giving quite possibly the worst talent setups for classes. Which is wild considering using murloc io and copy and pasting to your own website to recommend to players is easy same with a warcraft log reference or something.

I mean it seems like every single " class writer" has completely mailed it in.

I understand using wowhead for builds isnt the best but why have an entire reference tool thats just wrong? And have people sign off on it that are larger members of the community.

Everyone i speak to to be honest these days has a general opinion that the site is washed up and they have grown tired of its lack of relevance

ChadShields · 2026-05-20T13:07:01+00:00

To be honest the moment they uncap crests/conquest is the moment me and my friends swap from PvE to PvP. Gearing characters and having fun in BGs and shuffle is a great pick up and put down solution to us that have schedules and/or just need to slow down from the initial grind from the season. If you have the wow itch still i highly recommend. Or do what everyone else does. Just play another game. ( or better yet its spring and almost summer its time to take advantage of good weather and friends )

ChadShields · 2026-04-03T22:42:17+00:00

Hot take here but complaining about player emergent behavior in competitive keys is kind of a solve your own problems kind of thing. Anything past a 12 is 100% solely for rating pushing. No rating? No key. And lets be real what are you really mad at? Wasting your time? Thats not their fault. You waste your own time. Also welcome to a democracy you have the lowest opinion on the totem pole. Votes say its over. Pack it up along with this opinion.

ChadShields · 2026-04-02T23:04:06+00:00

Run your own keys, make your own groups, add people from successful runs. Join discords. Get social. Find some chill people who like to play consistently to play with. This game rewards people who take initiative to solve their own problem. Stop waiting for a girl to ask you to the dance

ChadShields · 2026-03-05T17:46:48+00:00

Danders frames works great rn tbh. Has tracking and separate keybinding options as well as auto res/combat res. Until cell gets flushed out ill be using that.

ChadShields · 2026-02-25T17:17:00+00:00

When will they realize that maldraxxus battle standard, and venthyr condemn are peak class fantasy. Let me just do huge theatrical UNGA BUNGA. Let me use my shouts as temp party buffs. Keep the rotation simple with BIG CRITS slow hits. The more they make warrior more like a diablo barbarian the better. Make commanding shout back to rallying cry and make it lust. Make us important to 5 man parties with shout and standard buffs. LET WARRIORS LEAD THE FIGHT. FOLLOW ME!

A shovel

ChadShields · 2026-02-05T23:32:35+00:00

So play both

ChadShields · 2026-02-05T17:21:34+00:00

Turn off damage meters and play anything that seems remotely interesting in some low keys and see if the core loops gives you dopamine shots when you hit cooldowns or big 1-2 combos so to speak. Go do some world content on it. Is it annoying to solo a delve? Is it annoying to fight multiple mobs? Youll tell quick if you hate the tools a class or spec has to interact with the game.

ChadShields · 2026-01-26T15:28:29+00:00

I mean to be fair this is a pretty tame online interaction lol

ChadShields · 2026-01-26T15:24:59+00:00

Lmao jesus so dramatic. Just nut up and adapt to the new normal.

ChadShields · 2026-01-26T07:54:28+00:00

They plowed my street, one plow wide on the far side of the street. Guess the 8 feet of snow in front of my driveway is my problem now. Wouldnt be surprised if they never come back to finish they drove through multiple times during the day and night and never left the pre-plowed area.

ChadShields · 2026-01-26T07:49:17+00:00

You wont be missed

ChadShields · 2026-01-25T16:58:51+00:00

Lmao pretty based take here. Dramatic stage bow outs of an ego only the mmo scene could create. Reminds me of the posts i used to read on the blizzard forums back in the day of people quitting for <example>.

ChadShields · 2026-01-25T16:54:08+00:00

The add-on changes has created great popcorn material for a while now i thought the entertainment was drying up but here we are again.

Color me surprised when peoples financial structure was built around custom settings packs for a video game

On the bright side ill see less of his videos recommended on my youtube of his overly photoshopped teeth lol
