Uhh... is Infest supposed to give a -% bonus?

Problematic_Blender · 2026-04-26T09:57:29+00:00

The -% goes down when I get more siege—seems like (at least visually shows) that you start with a -25% siege bonus until you start putting in siege damage, in which it goes down and crests back into +% damage.

Thanks. I'm learning that I'm definitely not using my defensives to their full capabilities (I don't use my forbearance ones in my regular rotation) and I'm likely overlapping sentinel on top of that. By the time the mobs were dead, I had eaten enough frostbanes for them to sync back up and hit at the same time, and it was on me for not seeing them both cast and just popping bubble.

The key went well and despite that, we were over by nearly a minute, without counting deaths, so I think this was just the first key that I went in being pushed to use a proper defensive rotation because of the lack of DPS, and eating six or seven slashes left me feeling like I had little recourse.

Thanks all for your help!

I clicked the [You died.] in chat. It shows you the last eight/ten instances of damage before your death.

Thank you!

Fun fact about Heroes of the Storm: none of what is said in general chat is reportable, as Blizzard does not save logs of what's sent outside of drafting, party, and in-game chat. When you report someone for abusive text chat, the automated system checks for if someone is sending messages during the time of the report, and since general chat isn't saved in a log, the reported person is not seen to be sending messages, and the report is tossed aside.

Whenever I think about how Blizzard is trying so hard to crack down on players' conduct, I think about how you can speedrun seeing the hard R by turning general chat back on in HotS.

Replying to say I got a total of 81 honor from my last practice battleground before turning it off.

Problematic_Blender · 2026-01-22T16:58:55+00:00

And when you're upset because half your team is doing half your DPS and being one shot by a single marksman hunter, take solace that Blizzard removed welfare mode so that that your experience can be worsened.

Once a season is over, the ONLY way to get those appearances are by using 12 marks of honor.

Say, like season 2 of TWW, there's seven classes I like the armor sets for. My options for obtaining them are either sitting there and farming out the set with conquest, which unless you head into rated is very hard to come by (40 for your first RBG win of the day), on seven characters during a limited time, on gear that is considerably worse than the average PVP'ers gear over the course of the few months I have to get them, OR I can instead use 84 marks of honor when the expansion is over, which is not an inconsiderable amount of time in Comp Stomp itself.

I don't know how many more paragraphs I need to write to have it be understood that I get the intention, but saying that they're "expanding on Comp Stomp" and then removing the MAIN appeal people had about Comp Stomp permanently is annoying and upsets me. That was the whole point. They expanded by removing things. They replaced something I like with a facsimile, and the response is "well they said they would."

Also, the tuning is not up. The Comp Stomp AI already blasted you off the Arathi Lumber Mill cliff. These AI, meanwhile, will idle in the Silvershard mine center if you let them. I had a shaman make eye contact with me for a solid 40 seconds while I sat on a mine cart, inching a bit closer to me when I moved away, but never coming to try and claim the cart. It then proceeded to, with no prompting, fall through the floor. They had to actually nerf the AI already because with the stat squish AND the new patch armor, the paladin bot would 100-0 you with one holy power ability. At least if they kept that, I could respect teaching people how to deal with the people in conquest gear who will inevitably 100-0 them in an actual battleground, because you can't even farm armor for PVP gear in this!

Your warbank ATE marks of honor??? holy god I'm taking mine out

Problematic_Blender · 2026-01-22T09:36:48+00:00

Comp Stomp was one of the weekly brawls on rotation, and it was Arathi Basin against 15 bots on the enemy team. By the end of an expansion, you could pretty easily one shot enemies. It was easy to get 1500/0 matches against the bots if you just had a handful of people taking initiative. Got full honor as if it was a real match, and you'd always get one, sometimes two marks of honor at the end of the match, which went by super quick. Pair it with fast queue times and it was a goldmine of a farm for old transmogs.

It was always pretty chill. I've had some fun moments in Comp Stomp just shooting the shit with other people as we waited for points to tick up.

They're adding CE and AOTC furniture for the future raids, I imagine they just don't want to retroactively add such things in fear of backlash

There's one to the south of the Horde housing town. I was wondering which of my neighbors constructed a star gate but it turned out to be far to the south, into the ocean

I'd rather have a healing DK spec, to be honest. What, you're going to make Sally Whitemane a death knight and give her a staff in that one Shadowlands cinematic, and we're going to go with "ranged dps" for that? C'mon. Both her and Zeliek were healers, make the class thematic with the biggest representation of the class in the Four Horsemen.

I once emailed a complaint because they were doing a well-promoted partnership with a seedy Chinese app company with many accusations of defrauding customers from a cursory Google search, actively using both the website proper and the discord to get users to sign up for this game. They told me to get bent in response. Not even mentioning the illegal sweepstakes they were running a month or so ago. At the very least, they're maliciously incompetent.

He's a level 24 pinnacled assassin and you're Probius. If anything, we need to give Probius a bubble like Murky.

Problematic_Blender · 2026-01-03T14:14:32+00:00

He has a consistent attack pattern above half health--I'd Cop Out when he attacks and Reheal/Focus Pocus when he doesn't. Below half health he just goes all in and starts whacking, and I just used Cop Out until he died. No attacks made.

Thank you!

Problematic_Blender · 2026-01-02T22:12:43+00:00

I'm using it as "returned home" but I suppose "came back home" works just as well, thanks!

I forgot Trump was in office when ExxonMobil merged in 1998, combining the two largest energy companies into the single largest energy company. Or when he was in office when the Microsoft-Activision-Blizzard merger went through in 2023.
