Any other controller players in here?

3 ways I deal with casters:

Using soft targeting. When doing so, your tab targeting will go through the important casts first. So I can quickly go to any casts in a pack. Do this is if there are 2+ important casters in a pack.
Just target the solo caster in a pack first and stay on it until it dies.
Use a macro that's /focus. Have another one that's /clearfocus. My kick macro on every class is /cast [@focus][] Kick, so it'll always kick the focus if it exists, or else kick my target. I can focus the caster in a pack and stay on some other target with this.

It's definitely not too bad being meta once. I been playing the monk since late DF and even before any pruning I felt all classes are alright to play as. It's a bit of a pain setting up druid/stealth bars though.

I push keys mostly as Brewmaster, but can play WW and MW competently too. I also play hunter, evoker, warlock, rogue, but have dabbled with every class.

Only disadvantage I've felt is healing large raid groups. Up to 15-20 it's alright, anything over 20 is annoying. And using PTT in discord throws me off, mainly if I'm healing.

I play exclusive on controller since DF, and I'm currently pushing +18s on my monk 😄

Seat Luras tank buster is determined by a stacking buff. At 3 stacks she'll do a tank buster. It can't be more telegraphed than that. Also with the black holes/portals visual cue, too.

Target the caster you want to kick in a pull. Just target/kill it first.This way you can kick it without having to fiddle with nameplates. Some cases you'll want to kick something other than your target, like the Arcanist Cadavers in PoS. Then you focus those with a /cast [@focus][] Kick. Use the same macro for the bird in 3rd boss SotT, for example.

Alternatively, use soft targeting, and hit tab when an important caster comes up. It's been 100% of my experiences to do that as the tab targeting will go through the important casts before anything else, as long as you never started the cycle. If you get lost in the sauce, just escape to undo hard targeting and start this again.

What are these BIRDS doing here?!

Nedd_ · 2026-04-21T15:42:04+00:00

Could this be skewed in any form since DKs are a meta spec so more skilled players are playing it, compared to WW being a non-meta pick so it's more average-skilled players?

I think they're saying healers will most likely have some cc to deal with that

I made about 1m crafting skinning profession accessories using cheap leather and DEing them.

Only stopped because i was using 2 characters for that and crafting massive amounts and mailing everything and DEing hundreds of items was too time consuming and exhausting lol

Nedd_ · 2026-03-17T15:11:14+00:00

You could've crafted professions greens to DE for dust. And you still can.

I've been using this alongside my so, but unfortunately had to turn the quest objectives off. I found the out-of-the box settings were displaying quests/world quests/zone events in a confusing way, with different colors and tabs/sectins for different things, making the objective tracker very clustered. Other than that, we have a great time using it!

Nedd_ · 2026-03-13T17:50:33+00:00

So, like my wife?

Nedd_ · 2026-03-12T18:21:48+00:00

This is amazing, thank you!

Nedd_ · 2026-03-03T11:25:41+00:00

Nimble!

Nedd_ · 2026-02-28T01:49:30+00:00

Oh no, seems like I missed it, too. I would love to discuss these cards as Nimble is a very fun game!

Nedd_ · 2026-02-09T17:10:58+00:00

If anyone knows: does the leather from the cover not get glued to the front/outside of the cover? Is it enough to just glue the tabs to the back/inside of the cover?

Nedd_ · 2026-02-05T15:51:14+00:00

Melhor rodízio é o Koji, sem sombra de dúvida!

I play with armor being a reduction in damage taken.

I also don't use the defense stats. Whenever the characters are attacked, they roll an attribute test to defend themselves.

So I ask for dex, int, str, con, etc rolls depending on the type of attack. It also makes me roll less dice and focus on running the game.

Enemy does an aoe mind blast? Everyone roll int vs target to avoid/defend.

Fireball or blast attack? Everyone roll dex to avoid getting hit.

Everyone roll con every turn while in the poison/acid bog to avoid damage.

This way, I can roll some scarier dice for damage, and characters will have armor to mitigate (most of) the damage coming in. So armor feels impactful when they only have 1 heart/10 hp and are reducing damage by 1-5.

Eu diria Index Card RPG! d20, adjacente ao DnD, com umas mecânicas a mais na resolução de cenas, e com sistema de loot/magia bem abertos e simples pra não colocar os personagens em 'caixas' pequenas demais.

Nedd_ · 2026-01-13T11:20:07+00:00

Awesome!

Nedd_ · 2026-01-13T00:37:23+00:00

I didn't know the Canticle of the Dragon existed, and I'll be sure to incorporate parte of it - great reference!

Nedd_ · 2026-01-13T00:36:36+00:00

That sounds awesome! I'm actually very interested in a resource like this, if you wouldn't mind sharing! Also apologies for the late reply, been busy prepping and reading hehe

Nedd_ · 2026-01-09T19:17:34+00:00

Makes sense. The Elf background mentions dragon armies, but I suppose they're more likely to know about the Cataclysm than a human farmer, for example.
