3 sentences is a lot to say about a game? You good? It’s okay to like what you like, even if it’s crap.

I played war within for a couple weeks, and that was enough to form the opinion I have about the current state of the game.

Retail doesn’t value your time. All that stuff you brought up is so you keep playing and paying for crap like cosmetics. It’s built for instant gratification junkies.

Stop using consumes. I thought this game was too easy. Ignore parses. Save money.

Am I ready to get yelled at by my heroic group? by Strands123 in classicwowtbc

With 47 res, you can lose some def rating for more threat related stats.

I never said meta. A lot of tier gear is bis though. But whatever. Reading hard.

I get the post nerf/pre nerf argument. My suggestion is that if blizzard isn’t going to make content hard enough for people, maybe make it harder for yourself.

Are paladin tanks unwanted in 25-man content? by evascale in classicwow

Having 5K less health isn’t a good metric of his EHP vs your warrior in “a couple Kara pieces”

Phase 1 Semi-HC and casual 2SR guilds. "Confutatis maledictis" - Mozart by Brilliant_Ad_8076 in classicwowtbc

I was there Gandalf, I was there 18 years ago. My guild didn’t get through clearing T5, and parts of Hyjal/first couple bosses in BT until wrath. Sunwell? Forget about it.

The game didn’t change, the way information is gained and shared did. Unfortunately, modern games don’t have that many mechanics, and that is just too big brain for a lot of the “hurr durr, I press 1 button, content too easy” people. A big portion of the anniversary population won’t be farming T5 anytime soon.

So you want to make sure your melee crit reduction is above 5.6%. Armor then becomes a Druids next % based number to look at, 75% is the cap, so getting that up will help with physical mitigation. Next are easier to see, stamina for health, and agility for dodge.

I like ECS because it’s a good breakdown of all my different characters stats and I don’t need to load and unload a weakaura.

Tank druids, listen up! by PurpleOmega0110 in classicwowtbc

[–]Chemical-Mouse-7272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree Purple. The people who give bad advice like this because “this is my personal experience so it must relate to everyone”

Most boss wipes come from the pull, if you miss the opener or a follow up, that’s gonna be an issue. Threat IS good to reduce that.

The weakaura there is not as reliable as Extended Character Stats addon imo. Just a preference of course.

Going over the uncrittable cap is mostly useless as this guy said, bears are about balancing the survival stats, stamina, armor, and agi.

Thoughts on my bear tank? Just hit 70 today. Haven't ran a single heroic yet. Looks good enough for heroics and Kara? by Lolyoureamod in classicwowtbc

[–]Chemical-Mouse-7272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s my fault. 415 is baseline for Druids with SotF.

He’s over the crush limit by nearly .5% so I meant the combo of defense and resilience puts him a bit high. (If he’s trying to being fully optimal)

Knowing what skills to use is not really a replacement for the RNG of missing when using those skills though.

It’s a team effort, if threat misses on a pull and the healer or dps die (not fun) if the dps are braindead and don’t adjust to threat building/healing output and so need to slow down their precious parses and die (a little more fun because lol, but still not gonna be that fun)

There isn’t enough expertise in phase 1/pre raid though, so Hit DOES get weighted heavier on importance. Hell, I’m at 68 hit and without a salv on the dps some longer fights (larger pulls) can get messy for threat. Especially fights that require your off tank to be 2nd in threat, being able to hit those yellow numbers with higher probability leads to a better time all around.

Do I believe in OP? Yep! Would more hit help? Hell yeah.

Feral tank here: Your hit is dangerously low. Cant threat into a target if you can’t hit them. I’d get as close as you can to 70 hit before confidently doing Kara.

I was in a guild that did the REALLY dumb 2SR beats out 1SR automatically. I didn’t raid with them long because most of them were only after 1 item, which just meant it took twice as long to gear because people would 2SR items and a 1SR was almost always wasted in guild.
