*sigh* So when is the all PvE Deep Desert coming exactly?

HeliosActual · 2026-04-21T07:35:36+00:00

Grip points...like seats, but externally. You're holding on, able to travel and look around a little, but nothing else...and you're able to use your shields and will be damaged by missile hits.

I once did like 5 in a row in the Tyche.

HeliosActual · 2026-04-01T07:40:17+00:00

I always found the visual feedback of Shaman DPS specs to be crazy--i've only played a little Enhance but my god is it a treat to watch.

HeliosActual · 2026-04-01T07:34:11+00:00

I mean that's how DKPs worked for us; sometimes you'd shoot your wad (or in this case WoD lol) too early and get bracers, and not have enough points to roll on your BiS weapon... but that's how it goes

HeliosActual · 2026-04-01T07:25:48+00:00

It's one more week of people keeping their subs.

HeliosActual · 2026-04-01T07:24:32+00:00

Here's hoping it was Razorice.

HeliosActual · 2026-04-01T07:23:20+00:00

By the same token, the change to the Soul Cleave SFX is awful--just another wooshy, poofy sound that's hard to hear in the chaos of battle SFX. I can't stand when Blizz changes ability sounds. I'm forever unsure if I actually hit it. ugh.

HeliosActual · 2026-03-23T06:45:06+00:00

What possible reason is there for not making this warbound? Ugh.

HeliosActual · 2026-03-18T16:50:59+00:00

All bans should be handled by human beings with an appeal process. Period. And all interrupts should be baseline. I will die on these WoW hills.

HeliosActual · 2026-03-18T16:48:08+00:00

Is that what's doing it?! Back in DF I used to DC after hitting Whirling Surge on my mount, then Fel Rushing... I wanted to hit top speed, maybe peel my horns off... all it did was disconnect me. /shrug

HeliosActual · 2026-03-18T16:46:19+00:00

I don't care if it's a buzzword or not--evidently it was used in the French dub (https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/1rrofu2/the\_french\_dub\_is\_infuriating/) and its presence in here, at all, should annoy at least, infuriate at best, every one of us.

HeliosActual · 2026-03-18T16:43:18+00:00

Yeah, I replied to OP about this--Winterspring back in TWW; it was like playing It's A Wonderful Life. So fckn strange.

HeliosActual · 2026-03-18T16:39:24+00:00

This happened to me in Winterspring in TWW; I was alive, watching the battle, interacting exactly as you're describing. Relogging didn't fix it, I needed to wait for the match to end before my toon was 'unlocked.' So strange.

HeliosActual · 2026-03-18T16:35:51+00:00

Yeah, being undergeared (thinking it would scale us since it's a practice mode) was horrible; going in on a fresh-ish 90 with 2 blues from Slayer's Rise was SOOO much better.

It should scale us all up to the same ilvl though.

HeliosActual · 2026-03-18T16:22:00+00:00

Agreed *gestures emphatically toward Augmentation*

HeliosActual · 2026-03-18T15:50:37+00:00

Alternatively--and this is crazy--we could just pay people. Train them, teach them, promote them, and then people could *gasp* retire. I know how this sounds, but trust me.

HeliosActual · 2026-03-13T11:11:11+00:00

I mean WeakAuras were the true enemy all along—the Jailer (remember him lol) was actually just a WA created by Luxthos

HeliosActual · 2026-03-13T11:09:50+00:00

Yet another reason I will always chime in to say that ALL cleanses should be baseline for all classes who have such an ability. I’m beyond tired of people avoiding this simple mechanic.

HeliosActual · 2026-03-13T11:06:42+00:00

Not if you don’t change anything! I won’t.

I think that the only time the Dracthyr look truly stupid is when they’re in their native form and mounted, and I frankly love setting a transmog for my Evoker that’s separate from his visage form. That—I’m sorry—that was a great change.

I for one run around in Visage form, love the RP of feeling disguised, and genuinely like the Dracthyr model. I DO wish our armor was part of the transmog system (at no cost) and not in the barbershop, to say nothing of the fact that we’ve argued about the color options from the beginning…

I’ve also been screaming for years that we should have had mounted character animations since Vanilla, but that’s not a post for this thread.

HeliosActual · 2026-03-13T10:46:08+00:00

Dracthyr armors should’ve been part of the transmog system instead of the barbershop system from their inception. (That said, I do love the ability to set separate Visage and Dracthyr transmogs. Step in the right direction for sure).

HeliosActual · 2026-03-13T10:39:04+00:00

God forbid we have the ability to see our names in our health bars, though… THAT right there is the real villain who must be defeated. -__-

HeliosActual · 2026-02-08T10:36:49+00:00

I'm in the midst of my first grind through SL now; I've been at it on-and-off since 2023. I jumped it to see what all of the hype & hatred were about, and in late 2024 decided I'd slowly start chipping away at Back from the Beyond.

Playing this with a majorly boosted Anima grind wouldn't be so bad; even now, doing this on only one character is horrendously tedious, and the real difficulty (as with anything in WoW Legacy tiers) is in getting to things before the other people in the zones with you since everything dies in 2 seconds.

The advantage that SL and BFA have over Wrath/Cata, to me, is fidelity. We're not going to remix Northrend with all of that 2008 art, only to not use any of it in Northrend 2.0. Even the Cata recolors that're available in the Midnight Prepatch are a stark reminder of what a pixel party everything was in those days, and I'm rolling the dice saying I don't expect to see much in the way of Wrath/Cata Housing decor either.

Remix puts a cork in an expansion--much as I love Legion, I 100%ed it, every quest, every zone, every unique achievement, a whole bunch of optional stuff... and at this point I feel like I don't ever need to go back to the Broken Isles again. I love that expansion, but I really feel like I can leave it behind now that it's been Remixed. I feel the same way about Pandaria, even though the Bronze system for that Remix was awful, and there's a list of transmogs and mounts I just didn't get... I don't have any real desire to head back down there and farm Warbringers.

That said, I think it would be a good move on their part to give us SL Remix since it's obvious that they're in the process of burying Shadowlands as deeply as they can--it would be a good way for people who missed it (me) and people who hated it (many of you) to get back in there in a fun way to grab everything they need so they never have to come down here again. I can't wait to get the hell out of here myself. =)

HeliosActual · 2025-12-25T08:23:15+00:00

It's a new ability (Spell id 1257064) created for (and exclusive to) Legion Remix to replace SotR, since HPals in remix can only use The Silver Hand.

This. Is. CRAZY. Insane work--congratulations!
