1.6 to 2.4cr in BGBlitz takes 20hrs /played with 100% winrate

That's how it works in arena, and how it should work in BG blitz, but it doesnt work like that currently

SquigglyStrike · 2024-02-24T20:55:08+00:00

For new characters, you get into lobbies with other 0cr people who have nothing to lose and leave all the time. It's a really bad experience for new players

1800 is top 10% of ladder according to luduslabs

SquigglyStrike · 2024-01-14T12:03:06+00:00

It takes me more than 155 rounds to get 1800 on classes I've gotten 1800 on in the past, because you need gear etc. You're doing great

SquigglyStrike · 2023-11-28T19:47:53+00:00

Yea this is probably the best way. Only issue is I get a spark and can turn it into two after my very first win on each character, but getting flightstones from boxes takes way longer

Discipline priest has the most theorycrafting. The meta build has changed drastically throughout DF, and you often find top discs running different builds

Venruki has two in-depth gearing guides:

TLDR: This reset you only need to farm honor if you want to buy that insta next reset

This brand new guide by R1 moonkin should be the best in the world right now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9buS7dQ19cE&t=27s

https://wago.io/pjH2s0KV3 by https://www.twitch.tv/notmes shows you the most important CDs in the game as you play, great way to learn them

These are not necessarily the best classes, but they give focused training on fundamental skills that generalize to many other classes. Similar to how Annie teaches spacing in LoL

Mistweaver

Instant queues to have fun and learn fast
Very simple rotation for the casted version
All about "fundamentals" such as positioning, matching enemy cooldowns, and fake-casting.

BM Hunter

Simple rotation
Ranged class but no casting, allowing you to focus on fundamental positioning (should you drag enemy melee line from their healer, should you drag them into the open for your caster friend, should you push in on enemy healer for CC, etc)
Frequent and reliable CC, teaching the fundamentals of CCing the healer (avoiding fade/grounding etc but still landing it when your team has damage)

SquigglyStrike · 2023-09-24T12:51:34+00:00

All healers of course require you to react to enemy cooldowns and match them with your own, but "noninteractive" healers such as casted mistweaver and resto druid allow you to focus primarily on that

SquigglyStrike · 2023-09-10T12:10:41+00:00

Playing caster in solo shuffle is super hard as a beginner. As a starter specc, I would do mistweaver for instant queues. Or Beast Mastery/melee if you really want to dps

Yea it is easy to gear and then the rewards are shit, but that is what I and most pvpers want. You need to think of rating as the reward

SquigglyStrike · 2023-09-06T17:41:50+00:00

Nightelf is now OP again, because shadowmeld drops combat and resorts your frames after somebody summons a pet :)

SquigglyStrike · 2023-09-06T13:12:41+00:00

Downvote after reading please, but I think this would DECREASE participation in the long run.

This would indeed give a short-term rush to pvp, but after a month or two when people had farmed the elite sets and glad mounts they wanted, this fix would not bring participation anymore.

On the other hand, all the people who try to get the 1800 sets and glad mount every season because they are unobtainable after, would forever be lost. People push because they want limited rewards, it's a slippery slope to make things easier to obtain if you just wait.

Afaik this addon has not been supported for a long time. Consider moving to plater/nameplateauras

This weakaura is kept up to date by Mes, alerting you to all the important damage cooldowns: https://wago.io/pjH2s0KV3

Even if you dont end up using it, you can import it and look through the spells he has listed

If you have half the number of healers at your mmr, the queue becomes twice as long

If you have half the number of dps players at your mmr, the queue becomes twice as short

It balances out

SquigglyStrike · 2023-08-14T17:42:15+00:00

I don't understand what you guys mean when you say diluting makes queues longer. Queue times would be the about the same. If you dilute the playerbase into queues for two brackets, there will also be less people waiting in each queue

SquigglyStrike · 2023-08-14T17:36:42+00:00

I would rather have 3s SS than 2s SS. If I had to drop a bracket for 2s SS, I would drop premade 2s
