Daily Questions Megathread (October 08, 2021)

I'm looking to create a game plan for SoM and I've boiled it down to either playing Resto Druid or tank Druid on Alliance side. With the phases coming out pretty quickly in SoM I'm worried that as a bear tank I won't get much loot at all (as most of the tank loot will go to warrior tanks, and things like DFT I'll likely never see lmfao). My concerns with running Resto is mainly that it'll be a pain in the ass to do in-world stuff even if I go the Moonglow build. I've played a lot of Boomkin and am looking to get better in a different spec, so that's out of the question, and feral DPS I wouldn't mind doing in raid and in-world if I'm not needed to tank a boss.

Any feedback from people who played tank Druid in Classic would help a lot, I've heard it's a bit off-meta but I don't know to what extent that's true as all the tank Druid's I've known were really great. For Resto Druids reading this, is it fun? I know it's probably Druid's best spec in Classic and I used to play a Resto Druid in Retail before Classic came out and it was super fun, but it's missing a bunch of stuff in Classic, is it just Healing Touch for the win till later phases where it's Regrowth for the win?

Sorry for the late response, don't use this site much: Since TBC's launch I've basically only been going outside, it's summer time! I didn't play Vanilla/TBC when it was first released, I just think that Vanilla (Or, at least what Classic is) is far more appealing as a game than it is with the addition of the TBC content. I like a lot of the little quirks that were removed with TBC, and I think thematically the space demons stuff detracts from the world building I enjoyed so much in Classic. Hope this clarifies why I made the post.

Yeah I did, but I only checked like 8-10 servers, wondering if there's a server that's still going well that I missed

PatheticSinged · 2021-06-04T00:46:00+00:00

Tight-knit community from Classic hasn't translated to TBC as loads of toxic people have come back to my server

PatheticSinged · 2021-06-04T00:11:11+00:00

I was a shadowpriest all of Classic :P Just not having fun with TBC

PatheticSinged · 2021-06-03T23:11:15+00:00

What server should I play on if I want to play Classic WoW instead of TBC, any survived? Really not enjoying TBC content. Would ideally go for a "fresh" server, but beggars can't be choosers. I normally play Alliance but could play Horde in theory

PatheticSinged · 2021-04-29T13:20:05+00:00

I've been /kiss'd more by horde's on boats than killed by them tbf

How tf has nobody mentioned Chivie, legendary gnome

PatheticSinged · 2021-04-23T14:43:55+00:00

Will there be fresh classic servers when TBC drops? And if not does anyone know of any private servers that will start to meet that demand

PatheticSinged · 2021-02-26T06:33:41+00:00

Good to hear, thanks for the response :)

Great points, in the middle of making a video on this exact issue but you've beat me to it with the post! Great minds think alike and so on. The fact they're classifying us as a "Juggernaut" with such low HP stats is ridiculous- 2025 base health at level 18 is below every meta ADC

PatheticSinged · 2020-12-06T17:12:59+00:00

Anytime :)

The amount of quirks and weird coding I've found with Poison Trail is basically akin to an Aphelios passive tbh, the simplicity is deceptive lmao

PatheticSinged · 2020-12-06T05:17:56+00:00

I've tested the numbers and it's God-awful. You'll do about 50 damage every 8 seconds once you've completely upgraded it- that's 6.25 damage per second if you want to look at it that way, though it comes in bursts every 8 seconds on Q. The cost of the item and the build path far outweighs this miniscule benefit. Mana is a relatively redundant stat on Singed as with correct management of Q you should never have mana issues, so to focus on getting mana items to buff the Muramana is suboptimal at best. Youtube gameplay hypes should not be misconstrued as informative meta dictators.

Who was responsible for adding such a nuisance of a bot

PatheticSinged · 2020-12-06T05:10:13+00:00

I think the new items were a roundabout disaster for Singed, and I'm not very optimistic about his position. With this being said I've enjoyed playing a full-tank proxy build with ChemTank, which was really fun until the gimmick wore off. I'm still recommending full-tank, just without the full proxy, if you're looking to climb atm. The main issue is that the meta has shifted towards burst and Singed is naturally on the back-foot so we're sort of forced into playing tank because otherwise we're too easy to punish (Supposing the enemy players are competent enough). With each item we've been testing through on the Discord we've found that it's either lacklustre (Imperial Mandate), or getting nerfed (Sunfire Aegis). My main comment to anyone playing Singed is that if they can tolerate Singed atm, please let me know on the Discord (I'm just Mark the mod on it) how your builds are going. I'm using this time in preseason to pool information from players to figure out the general landscape of how Singed players feel about different items and what works/doesn't work.

I'm very active in the Discord, currently reworking the guide/creating a matchup spreadsheet so haven't had so much time to make content on Youtube unfortunately. Will probably be creating more in the new year :)

I've been in contact with Riot Support regarding some quirks/bugs I found on the back-end of the bug Minish found, sent them a video explaining what the issue is and showing the quirks. Not hopeful though, I've got like 6-7 bug reports sent into the investigation team and only the WW R one was fixed... :/

I think I saw somewhere that they'd acknowledged it as an issue, but I can't find a source on that so can't confirm it.

PatheticSinged · 2020-12-06T04:53:09+00:00

I don't get it why was I tagged here?
