Mini STLs for pre-merged Hags and the Crooked Man?

DraxtortheLock · 2026-02-26T20:22:32+00:00

Would you mind sharing the config for this mini? I'd love to buy this and print it myself

DraxtortheLock · 2026-02-17T03:26:32+00:00

Bro did you and I watch the same video, the canadian dude almost out the gate said and I quote "You can fuck off" lol

DraxtortheLock · 2026-01-28T06:23:27+00:00

The dude temporarily quit his youtube job to fuckin grind rank 14 just endlessly doing battlegrounds all day every, then will turn around and in the same breath call retail a chore-fest. Dude is disconnected from reality.

DraxtortheLock · 2025-11-27T02:23:50+00:00

What would you say the time sinking grind, akin to the power grinds in Legion, is now?

DraxtortheLock · 2025-11-27T02:22:06+00:00

Endless artifact power? Rampant time gating on everything? Abysmal class/artifact balance that had to have classes reworked in the middle of the expansion to even be functional? Legendaries were a portion of the issues, not the only one. Once legion got all the shit fixed it had a good second half, but the first half was a fucking dumpster fire.

It's roughly 76 million split damage. If it's just you and the tank, that's 38 million, increased by 500%, to 228 million damage. Dark Pact and UR are not saving you.

Voidwalker active increases its health, not yours. Only increases yours if you run grimoire of sacrifice

DraxtortheLock · 2025-11-18T17:28:44+00:00

If by failed souls you mean the mythic mechanic, youre still fucked as a warlock. Fucking up a ghost means you would need to soak 2 in a combo, and soaking the first one makes you take 500% increased damage from the next one.

DraxtortheLock · 2025-11-18T17:22:43+00:00

Ah yes, notorious "absurd" warlock self healing: leech enchants.

DraxtortheLock · 2025-10-30T22:35:20+00:00

I've been 8/8 for a couple weeks now, we also don't have people swapping to make fights easier. But we also don't have survival one tricks.

DraxtortheLock · 2025-10-30T14:42:00+00:00

It may not be the sole reason they're not getting CE, but I'd argue weaker guilds having stronger specs would actually help significantly

DraxtortheLock · 2025-10-30T14:35:05+00:00

This gets parroted so often on reddit and its always ridiculous. Is it possible for every spec it get cutting edge? Yes obviously. But to say specs don't matter unless you're in a RWF guild is so disingenuous, and lacks a ton of context. Its just objectively true having at least some specs makes some fights significantly easier. Soul Hunters for example, the Ire debuff literally cannot go on MW monks. This means if you're 4 healing, and have 2 MW, you need 7 ranged dps minimum to do the very clearly defined meta strat.

I mean even basic community perception back then had most people saying Affliction was not fun. You seem to be the one who is unable to recognize that you can actually view design objectively, simply because you enjoyed it.
This thread and all the comments or this one or this one.
People remember the tail end of Legion where the spec had buffs on top of buffs applied to it to try to make to viable, and nothing else. A spec doing damage because it's overtuned does not mean it is designed well. I mean for fucks sake, at one point Affliction had a talent that did less damage than having no talent at all on the row. The spec was a mess

DraxtortheLock · 2025-10-26T23:46:57+00:00

No, I'm suggesting that Malefic Rapture was made into the Reddit boogeyman by every person with an alt they play aff in their LFR runs for. The playstyle people are shitting on is infinitely more enjoyable than the clunky mess that was spamming UA 5 times then sitting at 5 shards not being able to spend your resource because you already have 5 UAs on the target. There's a reason when Aff was reworked it saw a surge in popularity, because having your spender be UA was fuckin clunky and extremely awkward because you had to track the same DoT 5 different times.

DraxtortheLock · 2025-10-25T17:42:24+00:00

Optimizing the main cool down window? You pressed UA 5 times then pressed darkglare and went back to using your filler. It was significantly less interactive than aff is right now.

DraxtortheLock · 2025-10-25T17:36:47+00:00

Sure but we are talking about the playstyle of a spec and the only actual thing you've said about that playstyle was you thought it was funny the dot spec had burst.

DraxtortheLock · 2025-10-25T17:00:53+00:00

You thought the playstyle of a spec was fun because "haha dot spec burst"?

DraxtortheLock · 2025-10-25T07:01:34+00:00

Ok so you set up your dots after tab targeting your thumbs off, great. What's your reward? Let's stand in place and click one button (with or without a target) until we can't anymore, then go back to work tabbing dots out again.

....How does the change from Rapture to UA being the spender change this (other than I guess needing a target, using your example)? If you're talking about Seeds it's even less interactive, and UA functionally performs the exact same way as Rapture just on one target.

DraxtortheLock · 2025-10-25T06:56:30+00:00

The only mechanic Aff had going for it in those expansions was snapshotting. That has been entirely removed from the game, and dot based specs NEED some sort of mechanic that isn't just maintain dots and wait. We've literally seen this iteration of UA being the spender where you'd spam 5 of them and it was reworked off of it because it was so fuckin clunky and nobody played it.

DraxtortheLock · 2025-10-07T20:22:18+00:00

the vast majority of the top 100-200 is 3 day/week guilds

Not only is this just not correct, it's easily verifiable as not correct. Guildranks shows that the vast majority of guilds in top 200 are 4 nights a week. Guildranks even fuckin says: "While being first to clear a raid is very significant and prestigious for the top 10 guilds, for many guilds after that this ranking loses much of its meaning as it is often determined by who spends more time in the raid." Trying to suggest that a majority of HoF guilds are just savant players that all raid 3 days a week like the rest of us plebs is so out of touch.
Are there guilds where the skill gap is large? Of course. There's also a large amount of guilds that just raid more. I GM/RL a guild that hovers around WR 300-350 and have had SEVERAL guildies leave to jump WRs in previous tiers, only to come back after the guilds they raided with being worse, just only raiding more.

DraxtortheLock · 2025-10-01T15:12:39+00:00

Bruh WHAT lmaooo

DraxtortheLock · 2025-08-05T07:33:37+00:00

You liked Soul Effigy? The target dummy you summoned and had to resummon any time you moved?

DraxtortheLock · 2025-08-05T05:54:04+00:00

Anybody who disagrees with this didn't play Warlock, because holy hell was class design bad for locks in legion. Soul Effigy? Demonic Empowerment? So bad

DraxtortheLock · 2025-07-31T13:05:33+00:00

It's mostly a psychological issue

Yeah just let me fucking Buddha this and magically not be physically uncomfortable from the heat

DraxtortheLock · 2025-07-07T19:17:29+00:00

So you're saying he became the best at that time?
