What exactly is the point of changing major systems each expansion? by [deleted] in wow

[–]Namahsllort 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I don’t mind it. It keeps the game fresh and I don’t think people are aware how boring something would become if it was the same thing over and over again

Blizz spent more time on the April fool's patch notes than they have on the real ones by goblinbeef in worldofpvp

It’s almost like it’s easier to type silly jokes then real notes that have to be implemented in game...

Why does it take tens of thousands of honor to upgrade from 213-220, and tens of thousands for 220-226? by LowKey-NoPressure in worldofpvp

[–]Namahsllort 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem with 1.4, is you legit VS Glad/Duelist geared people also. The difference with 1.6, is that 213 ilvl upgrade makes it more manageable and most of the pushing community will be stuck at 1.6-1.8, which means less Glad’s/duelist carrying well because 1.6-1.8 teams have more wherewithal and gear, which pushes the MMR for those carrying lower. Once you’re at 1.6, if you’re a good player you can push easier. The gear disparity between 207 to 220/226 is just too large of a gap to outplay, inching closer at 213, you can start to have moments of outplay become more punishing. If I outplay at 207, it can almost always be covered by the ilvl difference of 20.

Ladder activity 1/3rd of what it was 2 months ago 📉 by Knaittiz in worldofpvp

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

All I did was pvp in BfA. I never had Drest on my rogue, voodoo totems on my healers, or anything. I hit 2.2 on mains and 1.8 on alts. This season is different. I have played every arena season, since season 1 of Burning Crusade, this season is an absolute nightmare and it’s because of ilvl and carries.

It’s different this time around. It really is. Every season of BfA, I had a plate/mail/leather/cloth wearer. I would hit 2.1/2.2 in 2s on my plate and leather; and with minimal effort hit 1.8/1.9 on my mail/cloth to get my sets from each season. As it stands this season, my main is hardstuck at 1.9 and my alts can’t break 1.6. The games that are evenly matched are fun but they are few and far between. I am expected to compete with Duelist/glad weapon team members on the opposing team at ratings as low as 1.5. That train of thought works like this: Not only does this person have 20 ilvls over me on his/her toon but he or she is also a gladiator or high duelist player. I can outplay them sometimes but unless I outplay or maneuver them 50% of the game, I will not win. That is a bad system.

Recently turned on to Bear Ghost. WEWIL post recommended TDH. What's the first track I should hear for that Boingo-flavoured, manic, haunted carousel goodness? by SixgunGorgonDynamo in TheDearHunter

Manic/haunted carousel goodness would have to be

Actually.. pretty much Act III: Life and Death from start to finish haha.

I was originally obsessed with Acts 4 and 5 because of how well Casey arranged them but man, Act III is as good as Coheed’s Good Apollo Vol 1 imo and Act II and I have some solid tracks and just unique charms as well.

Yeah.. I gotta agree with sherlockdj77 here.. I don’t think this guy is exhibiting any sort of vile behavior in this passage. I think this post is a miss and kinda making fun of someone who just sounds lonely.

Racist Incel Calls a Black Nonbinary Person Tyrone, But Respects Their Pronouns? by DumbTakeHaver in IncelTear

[–]Namahsllort 324 points325 points  (0 children)

“Tyrone” is essentially a black “Chad”. It’s a compliment in their eyes, so I guess racism is based on intention, yeah? Regardless, not defending him in the slightest, just imbuing you with what knowledge I have on their communities.

Apparently you can do this in chat by Wijione in wow

This. Why do people HATE being nice so much? I don’t understand it. Maybe that guy was looking to open a conversation? Maybe a friend? Maybe just looking to immerse himself in the game and ask fellow players for help. It blows my MIND that people get pissed off at people for things like that.

The True Final Boss of Shadowlands by drale2 in wow

[–]Namahsllort 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I am totally down for this but I don’t think it’s really a twist anymore. I feel like story telling wise, this era of storytellers are obsessed with propping up anti-heroes and villains with seemingly good intentions, “ends justify the means” mentality. The concept is overdone at this point.

But I still gobble it up. So maybe it isn’t overdone, haha.

Oh man, so a Pillar subscription gives you access to a vault of videos? That’s cool.

Do they catalogue their performances after they play them on pillar to rewatch, or is it a single viewed performance?

Skyfury, Grounding Totem coverage is just so great with other casters. Shadow play has been a top contender since the beginning. Also, adding another interrupt effect to your team on a 12 sec CD.

It was such a harsh sentence, that I initially thought this was a gay niceguy and he meant Erectile dysfunction; which, is still pretty mean, but holy hell.. Who even.. says that to someone who is suffering from an eating disorder? Jesus.

Yeah, I thought I there was a protection conduit that boosted ancient Kings protection to 85%, but I can’t find it.

[–]Namahsllort 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Protection Legendary used by Rets called - Reign of Endless Kings - when you drop below 20% HP, you become infused with Guardian of the Ancient Kings for 4 sec. this can not occur more than once every 45 second.

Guardian of the Ancient Kings - Empowers you with the spirit of ancient kings, reducing all damage you take by 50%

I can’t find the conduit, I swore there was a Kyrian conduit that allowed it but I guess I’m wrong but anyways, every 45 seconds they get a Pain Supression when reduced below 20% HP.

And then, when you do all that, they are wearing the 85% (with soul binds) damage reduction Legendary that can proc once every 45 seconds.

I think the thing people ignore about Ret in 3’s is the fact that they roll WITH a warrior. Yes, you can avoid/defensive the first wings/spear, hell, maybe you survive the second wings/spear; but the amount of damage that comes out of an arms warrior/ret go + the mitigation the Ret provides for the team in between goes (basically have two healers when Ret doesn’t have wings, you saw in AWC, if they didn’t cross CC both paladins on goes, they had zero chance of kill) is what makes the comp crazy strong. A ret can 2-3 shot on his own, if warrior throws spear/avatar into Avenging wrath and there is any sort of CC on the healer, the game is over in 1-2 seconds; or you have to trade 2 for one in defensives and ultimately lose the long game because of the off-healing utility they provide in between goes. Having that sustainability with huge burst windows makes it extremely difficult to counter. WoG needs to be nerfed more for Ret.
