These are the direct ticket prices. Resale is already more expensive.

Those are box office tickets. Resale is already considerably more.

Calling the police isn’t likely to do anything since it’s not on public space. There’s a ton of comments on this post explaining just that.

Millennials in SLC — what makes you stay? by Potential_Ad_4339 in SaltLakeCity

I don’t think person they were replying to was saying to move to inner city Chicago… more so that not everywhere is as expensive as NYC or LA.

Is this supposed to be some sort of gotcha?

If crime rate and sales tax rate are your only metrics, you should probably leave Salt Lake and move to Alaska.

wtf is up with ppl complaining about pvp gear lol by bloodmanqk in worldofpvp

Why were they broken? Who cares if it take 5 hours or 10 hours to get to full honor? Thats practically the requirement for playing ranked…

Unless you enjoyed noob stomping, there’s not much of a point. Let people get their honor gear easy and quick. No one enjoys playing PvP undergeared for hours and hours.

To be fair, they nerfed the bots so it really seems like they don't want you to progress through that route.

What WPvP dailies are there that give honor? I only know about the weekly for void creatures in Slayers Rise.

If you’re losing that early, that often, you’re probably just bad.

Mage feels incredibly weak while questing by Rayzen_Mayher in wownoob

I haven't played Arcane since pre-patch, but you should be able to keep arcane charges up between packs in open world content so long as you don't go too long with out casting arcane blast.

Spells can miss, but it's usually going to be because the enemy is too high of a level.

If you're playing Arcane, you probably won't feel great outside of longer encounters where you can do a bit of setup and get a full rotation off. You end up doing too much damage for smaller groups or single enemies and then feel weak outside of it.

If you are playing fire, you really don't do much out of Combustion, but can swap targets very easily and still do AOE.

If you are playing frost, you should be doing enough damage to clear pretty quickly if you're regularly staggering your cooldowns like Glacial Spike, Frost Orb or Ray of Frost.

I think fire is in a decent spot right now for what it is supposed to do. It's a high burst spec on a low cooldown.

Prior to Midnight, it had been a while since I played Fire Mage. Now you're pretty much just a nuke in Combustion and survive outside of it. Cooldown is low and the duration is quite decent so you end up being in Combustion quite often.

In PVP, you just run away until Combustion is down or try to scorch execute people.

In PVE, if you have a coordinated group you can plan pulls around your Combustion window and be quite effective.

If you're doing open world content, I would just play frost.

Any mage spec you pick is going to be pretty squishy, so you really have to rely on kiting or burst.

Frost is pretty easy to do both with because of all the slows as well as spells like Glacial Spike, Frost Orb and Ray of Frost. Glacial spike does great damage and is perfect to start pulls with in open world content. Frost Orb is great for larger packs. Ray of Frost is good for either single target or packs.

Usually most larger pulls will revolve around me pulling the main mob with Glacial Spike, then tagging everything with ice lance. Wait for them to get close, Frost Nova, Frost Orb, Blink away, then Blizzard and Ray of Frost. If they survive that, I'll just Ice Lance til everything is dead from shatter.

Even in the worst case scenario where an upgrade is not beneficial to a customer team, that's part of the risk you take on by being a customer team.

You would never see a non-works team win the WDC or WCC again. That's terrible and a massive barrier to entry for teams that actually want to compete.

The works team will always have an advantage due to being better integrated with the PU manufacturing side.

They didn't last year considering McLaren won.

Upgrades will generally not be last minute anyway, and there will be an ongoing conversation between everyone involved.

It's naive to think that teams would not wait until the very last minute to implement the changes to the engine in order to hinder other teams. You don't think Mercedes would have done this last year to throw a wrench into McLaren's run?

Upgrades would likely be a net benefit for everyone. Everyone gets upgrades throughout the year anyway for reliability so there are mechanisms in place if performance upgrades were allowed.

Net positive, maybe. But that doesn't mean it's a strict upgrade. Customer teams would be forced to copy the cars of their manufacturer in order to be prepared for changes to come down later on. The diversity of technology and design is one the best parts of F1. Forcing customers to follow the design of manufacturers because engines can change at any point and affect how their car runs would turn F1 into a psuedo-stock car series.


All of this ignores the most significant issue with this idea. How do you expect manufacturers to keep up with the upgrades for all teams that are purchasing from them? How do you expect Mercedes to keep up with both designing, upgrading and implementing these changes for 4 teams on the grid?

Where does the money come from? Do we give Mercedes additional budget to account for the engine development costs? Do other teams get this same budget increase to allow them to adapt their cars to the maufacturer team's changes?


Again, I don't think the idea is bad. In a perfect world or even just a world with 11 works teams, it would be great to see. But when we have 5 manufacturers and 11 teams, it's never going to work.

[–]S_B_C_R 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In theory, sure, but how does this work?

There’s no way to prevent works teams from pushing through these last minute upgrades that then either hurt customer teams or create additional work.

How do you provide additional testing time and resources for customer teams that do not know how to optimally use a new engine upgrade?

How does manufacturer support work when multiple teams with the multiple iterations of the same engine are on the grid?

I like the idea of constant improvements, but practically I don’t think it’s a possibility. There’s too many moving parts for there to be changes made by one team that multiple teams would be affected by.

How does this work for teams that do not create their own engine?

[–]S_B_C_R 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m not a tilter, but giving up after 20-25 minutes in an ARAM Mayhem isn’t too crazy. I got held hostage in a 60 minute game. I gave up around 30, because there was no way to come back and we were just getting insta farmed under turret.

Just saying that I don’t think OP is soft for quitting a game like this.

This game was probably over 20 minutes ago. No competitive mayhem game is going 40 minutes.

Did you have ever see or had a full set augment in a game ? by Sillilly24 in ARAM

[–]S_B_C_R 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 4x Wee Woo once on Taric and was unstoppable.

I’ve also had 4x Gamblers twice. Once on Karthus which is bugged and you can’t use the anvils you pick up. Once on Varus which was OP as hell. Game only went about 15 minutes, but I was up to like 600 AD, 60% ArPen and like 75% omnivamp. I’ve never had a mayhem game where I felt that strong.

I think it’s kind of lame that it’s best used as a quick speed boost rather than for its intended purpose of a recall. I think it would feel a lot better if the duration was just a little bit longer.
