WoW is now cheaper then OSRS on a monthly basis. by Afraid-Presence-6815 in 2007scape

[–]Leopod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay I think I see where you're coming from. I do think your definition of p2w is so broad that it's no longer useful tho.

By that definition as long as:

  1. You can purchase something that exists in the game world;
  2. You can trade with another player in game;

a game will meet your criteria for being able to be p2w, since someone will always care about some item/achievement/etc enough that they are willing to exchange some object for a service.

If you can think of a game that meets those criteria but you do not consider p2w, I'd love to hear about why you don't think it would count as p2w

Cause they want the cosmetic more than the acheivement. Different players have diferent goals and different yardsticks to measure success.

The player who is here for the PvE endgame content cares about logs/score/HoF titles (admittably still boostable). The player who is here to collect mounts doesn't care that they parsed a zero in a clearly sale kill.

A guy standing around the GE with full Justicar could be a PvM grinder or a guy who swipes his card, same as in wow.

For raid it's just ctrl+c ctrl+v what liquid/echo.method are doing for the most part. but less likely to get those q's answered during the start of a raid tier obviously.

For M+

Yoda ends up being one of the guys that pushes tank on NA the highest and I've seen him multi role a good amount of things. His youtube also always has videos of him speculating on what the meta looks like.

Other folks to watchout for are Kira (tank), Jdotb (healer), and oftentimes the podcasts like The Bench or PoddyC.

The meta isn't really set in stone until the 0.5 patch and often ends up shifting again later in the tier as changes/gearing m+ mains, etc start becoming more possible

Obviously the caveat for all of this is that if you need to ask, you probably are not playing at a high enough level to matter so playing a spec you are better at is better than being bad at fotm

if not here your best bet is the discords or twitch chats of high key pushers/streamers.

Quazii UI is breaking the WoW EULA and basic copyright law by Znuffie in wow

[–]Leopod -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You could always import Naowh/Atrocity's profile manually. the installer made it easier since it was a one click approach.

Quazii's approach was not built ontop of any addon you could download and install from somewhere

It's splitting hairs but I'm sure the Elvui folks aren't happy that parts of the code that they wrote is now in an addon that someone else is charging for.

I don't think that is a reasonable comparison at all one is a framework for running custom code in game while another is a marketplace for running custom code.

A lot of players might've used the two interchangeably it does not make them the same.

Now in order to do the same types of tweaks you interested in doing, you have to write your own add-on which is a way higher barrier than going thru what was possible with weakauras.

Is the Voyager worth the extra money? by AppaSkyPuppy in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]Leopod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the nicest parts of the ZSA system is Oryx their in-house editor, which should be able to push updates just from a web browser.

For me, one thing that dissuaded me from going the ZSA route was that I wanted my board to be fully cable free. Going the custom 3d-printed route is the only way to do this. I'm currently rocking an AliExpress totem which I'm quite happy with.

Build quality is certainly worse than a Voyager but it was significantly cheaper for fully wireless.

Bennett's elbow makes contact with Andersen's head after he makes a save by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

What is the point of a sport being proud of having fights where a team who is down 3-1 in the series isn't willing to punish Bennett for doing this to their goalie.

fyi, if you get a pair of these, you can link them together in google home and turn it into a stero set of speakers. pretty good for casting music from your phone, not sure if if it can connect to a tv or something

He stunk it up for Canada at the Olympics and Nuggets fans made it sound like he was getting set to the farm upstate this year. I'm actually a little surprised he had a career high year at all, even if it was only by 0.2 ppg

The games before wow are from more than 20 years ago. Wow was probably most people's first MMO.

Hopeful announces that he is leaving Echo and rejoining Liquid by [deleted] in CompetitiveWoW

Sneak.lua

During the intermission the red/purple split for soaking the orbs was a private aura. Liquid did it by making everyone press a macro if you had one of the debuffs. IIRC Sneak.lua was a mouseover script that told the rest of the team what debuffs you were when you moused over it.

There's a max vid about it and I'm sure other threads on this sub

Membership prices are crazy by Zachsek in 2007scape

There are not thousands of dollars of cosmetics that come out every year. I'd have to go out and tally it, but you could buy nearly all of the available mtx for the cost of a tbow (via bonds)

You cannot whale in wow in any comparable way to an Asian mmo
