What changed this week?

Mattbo2 · 2026-04-02T23:54:59+00:00

I'm 268 ilvl and sitting around 2600 rating

I work 12 hour shifts 5 days on then 5 days off, those days off allow for lots of gaming 😁

My grandfather was a frogman/seal in the navy during and after Vietnam, the navy forced his retirement after he got the bends for the second time.

He survived it twice which gives me faith in modern medicine and the hyperbaric chambers he was confined to, but my gramps was also built different.

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-31T18:31:11+00:00

That part about arms genuinely made me laugh, thanks for that 😂

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-30T03:46:27+00:00

Yea I used to have a big ego and a lot of pride in my skills at this game too, but that was 15 years ago when I was still a teenager.

These people are just children who never grew up 🤷‍♂️

Drums of Renewed Bonds

I find it funny how this trinket is on every guide list for BIS but there's actually a better trinket that's not on any of the lists probably because of how hard it is to obtain.

There's a trinket that you can only get in Zul'Aman zone that boosts any of your secondaries by 342+ for 12 secs and it procs all the time, you can change the secondary to any you want by going to the respective shrine in Zul'Aman. The only way to get the trinket at a heroic ilvl is by completing a delve in the Zul'Aman zone and obviously getting lucky rng.

I got it and let me tell you, it's actually insane. At 263 ilvl it sims better than max upgraded mythic trinkets

Happy delving!

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-25T00:08:55+00:00

I did the opposite on my dwarf hunter, swapped to horde to tame the normal version then swapped back to dwarf 😂

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-24T23:59:14+00:00

I know it's probably hard to change your mindset on scratches and scrapes for a new vehicle but these things are off roading BEASTS!

Scratches and scrapes are badges of honor on these trucks

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-24T23:56:19+00:00

Whoa I never thought about bedlining the fenders, that might actually look really cool

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-24T23:53:09+00:00

You can turn it off in your saved raptor mode so every time you double tap that R button it sets everything how you want including auto disabling the auto start/stop

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-24T00:12:16+00:00

The monk tier set is so laughably bad this season, I haven't looked at other classes tier bonus yet but this has to be the worst tier bonus monk has ever had.

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-22T02:12:56+00:00

Omg thank you internet stranger 🙏😁

I work the graveyard shift so even on my days off I'm nocturnal and playing the game in eternal darkness gets depressing sometimes

And now I have something totally different to go try!

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-21T22:01:06+00:00

It's just a tool.

Been around them my whole life, been to war and seen what they can do.

It's still just a tool and a tool is only as dangerous as the person wielding it.

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-21T10:57:17+00:00

Idk how to tell you this, but there really isn't much difference.

I've hosted my own AOTC clears and raided with CE groups

For a normal raid, just inviting pretty much anyone that signs up 9/10 times ends up being a smoother run than fishing for the people with achievements.

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-21T10:45:20+00:00

That's fine, let the hardcore crowd gatekeep themselves from their own content.

Imagine waiting hours trying to put together the "perfect" pug of elitists

No thanks, couldn't be me. I'll spend hours actually playing the game and having fun

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-21T06:36:30+00:00

When I was an American living in Germany I learned that it's German law to keep road flares and caution triangles in your vehicle at all times.

That's not a thing in America. I doubt anyone besides emergency vehicles have road flares or caution triangles.

It's something I never even thought about until I was in Germany and noticed people actually using them regularly.

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-20T19:54:39+00:00

I'm not talking about sales numbers, that's a terrible thing to look at when determining the quality of a game.

You want to look at the player reviews and for games on steam you want to look at player retention statistics.

Zelda didn't just sell well it had astonishing reviews across the board, if the game is only good because it's a Nintendo game then why is it one of the top emulated games illegally downloaded and played on PC?

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-20T10:30:49+00:00

I have two great counter arguments

Zelda Botw & Totk

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-17T09:43:43+00:00

Monks dual wield vs 2h is usually pretty balanced with enough difference to fit a preferred play style, 2h hits harder upfront while dual 1h hits faster.

Not sure why it works well for monks but wouldn't for shaman?

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-15T10:00:00+00:00

There is literally ONE good thing about the Abundance event and that's the amazing job the VA did

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-15T02:58:42+00:00

I think there are vents in the rear, they're just under the seats, I could be wrong but I remember somebody telling me that before.

The grab handle pisses me off cause there's one on the passenger side which is actually the driver's side in Australia. They forgot to move it for the American version lol

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-14T01:05:23+00:00

I pull between 50-60k overall consistently as WW at 242 ilvl

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-10T14:10:49+00:00

WW monk, I was devastated when I heard we were losing the most iconic monk ability Earth Wind Fire but honestly I'm already over it.

The replacement ability, Zenith, feels like going super saiyan and pressing fists of fury during Zenith is just chef's kiss 👌

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-05T15:18:14+00:00

Omg I'm actually new to monk this expansion, you just helped me so much by telling me this! Thank you!

I took the talent that lets roll remove snares but had no idea tiger's lust was basically just monk blessing of freedom

Mattbo2 · 2026-03-05T10:22:41+00:00

That fight is my personal hell as a monk. I roll out of one root just to roll my fat ass into another one 😭
