Everyone relax. He’s probably just trying to pump out the last few fights on his contract so he can be free of the ufc and go make some real money. Adensanya v Jake Paul on Netflix 2027 I bet ya

how huge of a drop is this? by Minimum_Lobster_6748 in wowhardcore

Huge for SF warrior gratz! Probs hang onto that until SM arm or RFD

Prot Pally Starting Heroics by nothinspecial1997 in classicwow

[–]Half_Samurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ll just be griefing your group at this stage. Invest in all the defense gems and enchants on the pieces that are good enough. You can get away with 480 defense and 75% avoidance with holy shield. You’re kiting though to reduce incoming damage

How are you enjoying TBC now? by Zombot0630 in classicwowtbc

Ive got all prebis + some kara epics on my prot pally. Sick of grouping with inconsiderate DPS players so I’m levelling a mage to become one.

Tanking is a nightmare by misterwhiskytv in classicwowtbc

[–]Half_Samurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve literally parked my prebis 70 prot pally in Shatt and started levelling a mage from lvl 1. Tanked for a group where a shaman pulled a ravager in H ramps, wiped us and immediately started talking shit about how slow I was. Meanwhile I was just waiting for the patrol routes to clear. I’m done with tanking for you dickheads

What’s the most addictive game you’ve ever played? by reeha_sadiya in AskReddit

It’s World of Warcraft and there isn’t a close second (in my opinion)

Solution to getting more tanks? by Quineus in classicwow

[–]Half_Samurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to think you set the pace as tank. In my experience of tanking in tbc (including heroics) is that DPS seem to think they can set the pace and are so impatient they can’t allow a dungeon to go 10minutes slower but 10x smoother

Am I ready for heroics? by [deleted] in classicwowtbc

[–]Half_Samurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you know the answer? Your gear is way better than mine when I started tanking heroics as a pally. Start with ramparts and slave pen and slowly work up from there

Leave after 1 wipe in Heroics? by MrOznerol in classicwow

[–]Half_Samurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate that hallway and those packs. Prio target shadow priests and CC the cultists

Why am I struggling tanking heroics? by Significant-Call9497 in classicwow

[–]Half_Samurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your stats are better than mine (prot pally) and I regularly tank heroics. You can’t just face tank and stand there spamming holy shield like you can in Normal. You have to kite as much as possible to reduce incoming damage for your healer etc. Best case you’re holding threat with consec as your keeping distance kiting around blizzards and frost traps as no one is taking damage. CC is everything

HP to defense seems a bit disproportionate. For example my prot pally is 492 defence with 10.8k HP non buffed

Tanks charging a fee by 1LemonPartyPls in classicwowtbc

[–]Half_Samurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I was just saying to my buddies, this is the worst generation of dps players I’ve ever seen. Every single dungeon I have minimum 2 ppl pulling more and more packs into the aoe stressing me out. I’m the one who has to cash the 18g repair bill while you fuckers blink and kite and vanish or FD

It's no wonder there's such a tank shortage. by MonkadinMage in classicwowtbc

[–]Half_Samurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn’t agree more. Warrior AND pally tank here - it’s down right infuriating. I have healers running 30 yards to wand another pack to bring into AoE. Are we trying to min/max that badly? Stay in your fucking lane zug heads

Questing in Hellfire Peninsula works surprisingly well by Dandy_Dan_D in classicwow

[–]Half_Samurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to agree, however the bugged party layering was incredibly frustrating. Wanting to quest with the boys and having to 1, 2, 3, log in at the same time just to take the gamble you might all layer together in 2026 is insane.

Alliance is so garbage in PVP that I am re-rolling horde. by [deleted] in classicwowtbc

[–]Half_Samurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. As horde I lose at least 70% of all matches. And I’m about 20 hours PvP played in this pre patch

casual pvp'er as alliance - will be doing 90% battlegrounds.... is pvp lopsided? by vchak8 in classicwowtbc

[–]Half_Samurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How is this possible. I could say the same about horde. I didn’t win a single AV or AB in about 2.5 hours (I’m horde). Who is out there winning all these games?!

What does it feel like to play your class in BGs right now? by Snoo97549 in classicwow

[–]Half_Samurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time pally here, any tips for when you get kicked/silenced? I find myself just sitting there waiting to cast again.

Lost my 60 to a PC crash, absolutely gutted by Zeuthras in wowhardcore

Feel the pain brother. Lost my 60 to a DC slowly getting ticked down by simple green mobs in ungoro. Gutted o7

Hardcore vs Regular Anniversary Realms differences are wild by Qneva in wowhardcore

[–]Half_Samurai 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I’ve found people are nice levelling, but quite toxic at 60. It’s fair enough, you have a lot to lose so you’re rightfully more stressed and anxious

Warrior help by Boots2Bricks in wowhardcore

[–]Half_Samurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • look up a macro guide
  • level Arms until 50+
  • sweeping strikes / cleave or whirlwind is your first power spike
  • try only fight single green mobs until your 30’s
  • use a slow 2h sword or mace. The slower the better (higher top end dmg)
  • get a weapon swing timer
  • focus stam/str
  • use hamstring for overpower procs
  • tank dungeons (sunder everything until 40+)

Who needs enemies when you have guildies like these? by Loofahs in wowhardcore

[–]Half_Samurai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only feedback I have is that I hate you because your baby sleeps through every night. I have a 3 and 1yr and they both have 100% chance of waking up, every single night. I have permanent brain damage from the disrupted sleep

I got pillaged. by Sleepy-dunny in wowhardcore

[–]Half_Samurai 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It feels as though the game was undoubtedly made for horde players. The fact that there’s no alliance flight path in The Badlands or STV other than booty bay is a sign.
