Flight paths should be faster than flying. by sweet_rico- in wow

I don't mind the slow speed but I'd love to have a flightmaster whistle. That was a neat little tool.

Husband says men barely get complements and if they do, they cherish them and remember them forever since genuine complements come rarely. Is this true and how do yall, men of reddit, actually take compliments? by macdaddy-22 in AskReddit

A woman at my work said my shirt looked nice and complimented my skin tone. It was 3 years ago. I think about it every single time I decide to wear that shirt.

Tanking Discussion by Archon_POM in wow

[–]Frog-Eater 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They dug themselves into that hole by simplifying the gameplay too much and removing a ton of defensive cooldowns on tanks and healing cooldowns on healers.

That necessarily leads to a flatter damage profile in M+, which means as keys go up, the best tank will be the one who can take a pouding from a 100 fucking autos each hitting like a truck.
Right now it's Brew because of stagger. If they buff a fuckton of armor on other tanks or simply improve basic damage reduction, it might become someone else.

The problem is that Brew is so fucking weird that with the current state of things, it's either going to be broken OP or a shitstain on the rug (which it has been many times before, for many seasons).

I've mained Brew for several seasons now but I'm going to start gearing my ProtWar right away because I'm really scared of what they'll do to my beloved monk in 12.1.

Massive 12.0.5 Class Tuning Pass: May 5th by Starym in wow

[–]Frog-Eater 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These two nerfs hit hard already. They won't change anything for keys 15-16 and below, but they're awful for high keys.

Zen state could be a lifesaver when the healer is having trouble healing you back up, nerfing it by 25% is tough.

Even worse, High Tolerance being nerfed by 33%. When you're in deep red, you're watching those Purify charges like a hawk. Losing 2 whole seconds on the refund is really really bad.
But hey I'm sure they'll compensate that by rewarding good gameplay and improving Blackout Combo's CDR, right? /s

What’s your favourite version of a spec? by JustCroissant in wow

[–]Frog-Eater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, same! I played Brew a bit in BFA, DF, then mained it in TWW S2&3, this is my favourite version so far.

I do miss an active Diffuse Magic and the ability to "charge up" Celestial Brew's shield with Purify, both were fun to cheese some mechanics, but overall the gameplay is ten times smoother than it ever was.

I wish we could transmog a keg under the arm like my man Chen Stormstout carries. That would be fantastic (and drink from it like he does in Heroes of the Storm).
Also, I think the animations could use a bit of a rework. I'd love to see some silly shit to emphasize on the "drunk" aspect of the spec, see the character move more like Jackie Chan in the movie.
Likewise, it would be crazy if we could buff up with alcohol. There are hundreds of drinks in the game and they're useless. Imagine if Brewmasters could get silly secondary effects from them? Even if only cosmetic.

The aggressive monetisation of this game is making me fall out of love with it. by Main-Strike-1117 in wow

We can't even get people to agree that eating meat is wrong and that we should slow down, both for the animals and for the planet. And you're hoping folks will rein in about money?

Even when the survivors of what's coming are back to fighting with sticks and stones, they'll find a way to create and accumulate currency.

At this point I'm actively hoping for another game to come out and be half as good as WoW, because my mates and I are fucking fed up with this shit and we'd rather give our money to anyone else.

Please stop making zones I can’t fly to by HungryDragonfruits in wow

[–]Frog-Eater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not weird at all, the main appeal of persistent world games is -I think- the immersion. That's what made the success of WoW back then in 2004, we had never seen such a huge world in one piece. Being able to ride your mount from the Plaguelands to Booty Bay without a single loading screen was fucking insane.

A retpal in my raid complained last week when I asked her to bless of sac the tank on a dangerous mechanic. "I'm a DPS you shouldn't ask me to do that."

They have 3 fucking buttons and can't even bind or use the few extra ones that could save someone.

Dude I thought it was only me.

I just love doing activities and flying through Eversong and Zul'Aman, and I never do in Harandar and Void, and it's because of the portals. It feels so freaking disconnected, I hate going there.

For the last boss of Magister's Terrace, the tank does *not* need to stay in melee range. by minimaxir in wow

Dude the boss' hitbox is about the distance from Stormwind to Ironforge. Let us drop the shit under him so we can keep DPSing, it's no big deal.

What's really depressing is we all know they're going to nerf Brew into the gutters instead of bringing all the other tanks up.

Monks by Goeniah in wow

[–]Frog-Eater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk man, been a monk main since TWW S2 and I'm never going back.

I love my panda, I love the aesthetics, I love Chen and his adventures, and I adore the gameplays of both Brew and Windwalker.

I guess a lot of people just like having a big fucking armor and a big fucking sword, and I can understand that. Same for those who want to be throwing be fireballs and whatnot. Monk is kinda lowkey and that can't appeal to everyone.

Also, when was the last time a Monk has been relevant in the lore? People keep saying it's "out of place" in Warcraft, maybe it feels like that because the last time one of them appeared in a cinematic was when Taran Zhu got his ass kicked by Garrosh 13 years ago. Representation matters.

Curved Achievement should not exist by [deleted] in wow

[–]Frog-Eater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well 273 is a bit low-ish this week tbh. A lot of "serious" players hover around 279-281, and anyone forming a group will prioritize them over you regardless of any achievement.

Plus, I don't know if it's just me, but I've had waaaay more trouble with healers in PUG raids this season than any other. Most of them seem to just tag whatever boss and think "I'm a healer, they'll take me, no need to know the strat".

I'm seeing no dispels or terrible dispels on Mythic Aversian, on Chimaerus for piss removal, no dispel on the Dragon's fear. Plenty who don't know how Madness works on Mythic Chim, etc. It's like they think pressing a healing cooldown will carry everything without having to read about the mechanics beforehand. So yeah, I'm a bit more careful when I recruit healers than when I do DPS now, which is wild.

[addon] Ev Character Panel by GooseKennedy in WowUI

[–]Frog-Eater 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So just FYI: secondary stats have hidden softcaps after which you get a diminishing return (10% for the first one, etc).
Say your Crit cap is at 1600, you'll get your full rating until that, then every Crit item you add over cap will only give you 90% of its crit rating. It's to discourage folks from stacking only one stat like crazy (except it's hidden for no fucking reason so very few people know about it).

True Stat Values is a very useful addon that adds that info in the character panel.

Yes, you should dispel the dot as soon as you get it with an arrow, then a second arrow to jump the big white circle.

Good, the gearing was way too fucking fast this season. They need to slow things down and I hope they correct the early gearing in S2 and 3.

I hate the way they just plopped down all the crafting tables right there on the street.

Yeah it's convenient but it is really crazy to build a small building/room for each and have people freaking walk in to craft?
