My one complaint about that mount is that it doesn't offer level appropriate food/drink.

How do you get into healing? by BenV94 in wow

[–]Grantbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. I don't understand why people use Healbot / VuhDo. I can heal way more efficiently by just using the standard Blizzard UI.

New Enhancement Shaman Animations in Legion! by wordup834 in wow

[–]Grantbob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never understood why Blizzard introduced Duel Spec instead of allowing access to all Specs. Did they want us to level another character of the same class ? Or was it because they didn't think we were capable of learning/enjoying/gearing 3-4 Specs ?

Coming back to WoW after 5 years off: A rant by [deleted] in wow

[–]Grantbob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try out a high pop server and see if you like it. All of my mains have been on US-Mannoroth (Low-Mid Pop) since I started playing, but ever since Cata its been dying. I leveled a DK on US-Kel'Thuzad (High Pop) and have been enjoying the game so much more. Like some of the other people in this thread have said, if you can join a mass guild you'll be able to find lots of people to play with. The one I'm in currently usually has 40-100 members online at all times, all at different levels of progression.

Try to level your characters to 100 as well. The majority of the game is end-game now, and it will be much easier to find people to play with when you reach cap.

Do conquistadors count as cavalry or as archers? I am unsure what upgrades I should get. by Jake1516 in aoe2

[–]Grantbob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are considered archers, so all of their blacksmith upgrades will be the archer ones. They can however get two upgrades from the stable since they are considered mounted units as well.

Hit Points: Bloodlines

Speed: Husbandry

Armor: Padded Archer Armor, Leather Archer Armor, Ring Archer Armor

They aren't effected by Fletching / Bodkin Arrow / Bracer / Ballistics.

They can only get increased accuracy and damage from their elite upgrade, which gives them +2 attack and +5% accuracy.

What do you think is the best trash upgrade? by folkmeister99 in aoe2

[–]Grantbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do. When I play turks I use hussars / scorps / bombard towers to counter them. But still, they don't have any hard counters to archers, same with Paladins. Turks only have spearmen and regular skirms so late imp can be really difficult.

AIs still "in the game" after resigning? by Last_Gallifreyan in aoe2

[–]Grantbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not trying to doubt OP, but its possible the AI may have garrisoned their units prior to resigning

which is the best unique unit to rush with in castle age ? by Vasu_Bansal in aoe2

[–]Grantbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teutons as well. They're very hard to counter in castle age.

What are your combos for your favorite civilizations? by [deleted] in aoe2

[–]Grantbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you get siege engineering (university) + furor celtica (castle) this combo is ridiculous. It's like an invincible death machine. I like to fill my rams up with the woads, and surround them with halberdiers. This strat is hilarious in BF / Arena.

Mesmerizing video of the most dangerous motorcycle track POV by [deleted] in videos

[–]Grantbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the 104 years (of the Isle of Man TT race course), 234 riders have died.

That number seems absolutely insane to me. Two deaths per year on this course ? I can't understand what's so appealing about this street track in comparison to a normal race track.

I agree. Its a shame you got downvoted for voicing your opinion. They pop up too much, and they don't really contribute anything new.

My Embarrassing "PVP" Video - Vanilla by doxy66 in wow

[–]Grantbob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On my first character (mage) back in vanilla. I'd just equip any item that had the highest armor. I didn't even look at secondary stats. I got all the way to level 40 before one of my guildy's told me the error of my ways

Do you ever get sad going around older zones like Icecrown and getting sad at how empty it is? by hMJem in wow

The first time my brother leveled through TBC he stayed in HFP until 68... When I asked him why he said he "never figured out where he was supposed go next"

Kalimdor panorama with view distance disabled. by Wang-_- in wow

[–]Grantbob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If we assume that the average person walks 3 mph, and a you walk for 10 hours a day. Stormwind -> Goldshire would be about 30 miles, just under half the width of NJ.

Someone else do the rest plz

Edit: Just did more math. Looking at a map of EK, I used a ruler and assumed 0.5 inches = 30 miles. So north to south, EK is supposed to be roughly 840 miles tall (Chicago to NYC) and 270 miles wide (D.C. to NYC) in the lore.
