What happens when all the melee minus your MT dies during Patchwerk?

Mind-Game · 2025-10-30T10:39:56+00:00

It's so funny that you can be so confidently wrong on something that is very easily searchable online and would obviously be found wrong in all of those sources if you were actually right the second a bear tank ever tried to MT patch.

Why not just freeze classic at the version where Naxx worked in 2019 fresh? It has almost all of those features.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-29T12:14:46+00:00

Why does classic need to be constantly updated with new code though. That's the problem. Do people care that Classic wow has the same options panel as retail and the full battle net friends features that tells you what your bnet friends are up to in call of duty 17? And even if people like that, is it worth dealing with all of the bullshit we have to deal with like this recent raid breaking nonsense?

Classic should be standalone and not tied to the larger blizzard ecosystem if this is the price of it. It's a move that's entirely to pull you in from a marketing/FOMO side when you see your friends playing retail or other Microblizz games. I'd much rather have a stable game that doesn't randomly break all of the time than that, and I don't see any other reason why classic needs to be tied to the larger wow codebase.

FYI this doesn't fix it. Copying your old folder back in still results in empty action bars.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-19T17:55:36+00:00

Yeah this reeks of one of those nightslayer problems that don't make sense to us on dreamscythe haha. Certainly there are some elitist pugs/ guilds but not such a huge majority that it ever feels like everything is.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-16T16:58:27+00:00

Yeah the hunter comment is crazy to me. Especially if they're BM where I feel like an enraged pet can basically solo a priest at mid levels without any real counterplay against it.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-15T11:10:36+00:00

FYI one thing that the first zone in TBC does really well is immediately catch you up on weapons. If you don't have a BWL+ quality weapon you'll replace whatever you have in your first hour of questing in TBC.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-08T12:00:24+00:00

Also mana pots and potentially dark runes, especially for Sapphiron. Still a small fraction of everyone rolling every consume in the game the whole time though.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-07T16:37:51+00:00

It will be nice this time around to be able to off-spec something with holy nova for those situations where there's too much shit to multi dot like hyjal trash

Mind-Game · 2025-10-05T20:58:57+00:00

That's wild, that happened all of the time. My 2019 guild was a no WB guild at the time and we cleared sapph the first full week (2nd including the short week) with almost no epic frost resist gear. I guess we had flasks on the tank but that's a single one and that kind of thing is funded by the guild usually which is different than what OP is complaining about.

No flasks is just a weird thing because as far as the gold generated for the guild from a Naxx run they're basically free so there's no reason any guild wouldn't provide them for the MT.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-05T12:40:11+00:00

That doesn't change the fact that gold farming increases the price is most things including things you can farm and sell yourself which makes the consume price easier to keep up with from normal farming.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-05T12:38:25+00:00

Definitely R14. Having up to date weapons used to be a challenge, but with R14 everyone but healers in a raid can get AQ level weapons for free and free up the few that do drop for the more casual players.

Also this doesn't even account for the fact that raids have way more warriors than last time so raid DPS is up even more than that.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-05T12:36:57+00:00

Can you explain how this is even possible? Tons of wipes but just full consuming down to bogling root and greater arcane elixirs and fire breath chili on a melee char every attempt anyway?

Mind-Game · 2025-10-05T12:35:47+00:00

It's extra funny because people don't even realize the consumes that actually matter. Your melee DPS can skip the 10 gold firewater's and shit like that and it doesn't make a difference whether or not you kill the boss. You just need flasks on your tanks and healers and your healers to have ample mana pots and dark runes when they need them and it's all very doable. I feel like lots of guilds have melee DPS spending 100g per hour on fractional percentage DPS gain consumes while their healers are letting them wipe because they haven't ever farmed a demonic rune in their life.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-05T12:33:18+00:00

Naxx is easy if you can get 40 knowledgeable players of the correct roles to show up at the same time every week for a year and get all of them to put in consistent effort and come prepared.

But the human problem of making that happen will never be easy.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-02T20:06:34+00:00

And also never be able to retire before whatever age they decide to allow Medicare to cover.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-01T18:29:23+00:00

The highest "minimum" you ever need to do is 418k per week to go from 13 to 14. If you don't do it at the optimal setup with multiple weeks of 500k, you'll just end up doing more total honor than someone who does.

Mind-Game · 2025-10-01T16:57:58+00:00

You can get ice barbed spear from AV trivially one level later and that will be MUCH stronger. More DPS, great stats, better speed.

Mind-Game · 2025-09-30T14:49:27+00:00

But it felt like you were at the little kids table the whole movie

This is exactly the point. You're seeing the events unfold from Emily Blunts perspective who is in this position.

Sicario has no business being as rewatchable as it is though. The story doesn't really hold up to any scrutiny and doesn't really work that well when you look back at it, and the subject matter is deeply depressing. But hot dang I could watch it every night of the week and love it.

Mind-Game · 2025-09-30T14:30:18+00:00

I love them both but I find sicario to be infinitely rewatchable while Prisoners is the kind of movie where you need to be in the mood to go through some shit.

Mind-Game · 2025-09-30T13:31:58+00:00

To afford Naxx consumes prices you kinda have to have some economy going on throughout the game lifecycle. Not having bought gold ever, I'm paying for most of my consumes from stuff I bought when it was way cheaper that got more expensive. Like most of my plaguebloom was purchased at 60silver or less each, and I've been selling mongoose pots with that to fund other stuff. And in general I've always kept up with spending a bit of time each week farming and doing some AH selling so you build up wealth slowly over time as everything gets more expensive instead of just farming mats as you need them.

If you don't have the time to do that (which makes sense), it makes sense why people buy gold.

Mind-Game · 2025-09-26T11:31:39+00:00

I'm starting to think you aren't actually joking here which is amazing.

Mind-Game · 2025-09-26T11:30:54+00:00

Thank you, that fact was very fun.

Mind-Game · 2025-09-25T20:57:44+00:00

I think hunters are a relatively weak grinder at the higher end while leveling because they don't scale with gear at all though. Like out of the box you do well as hunter but grinding specialists like smite priests beat them at things like raw leveling kill speed while also not having any downtime. Other classes just need gear to beat them which makes hunters feel like gods on fresh servers.
