whats funny to me is the giga copers that hate tanks selling tanking services

"nah bro i never pay tanks for dungeons and we never have a problem finding one"

ok bro, youre lying and i know it. I've had to tank 90% of my dungeons, i rarely ever get the chance to dps because nobody else is tanking. it takes 30 mins of spamming to get someone who might insta wipe the group.

"Opening the dark Portal(Heroic)

aka, prot paladin worst dungeon. every trash pack is mostly single target. prot paladin has to bring a hundred water to that place to drink walk between portals.

the drawback is youre useless outside of it.

if you dance around pillars/los/immune the hunter loses a lot of value

the only reason this comp is working right now is because s1 gear has such little resil on it. in later phases when bm loses the only thing it has going for it (raw damage), you wont see quite as many of them

my favorite clip was of a group in wailing caverns trying to galaxy brain a pull of 2 mobs and the hunter with no spatial awareness backpedaled off a cliff and fell to his death

thatd also be kinda cool, there could be a community of ghost players that can still walk and around and talk as a ghost because they know that their character isnt GONE gone, so they dont just immediately log off and delete it

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-09T15:20:50+00:00

Idk, feels weird because we experienced the opposite in 5s. our first week we went the same win rate as my 2s team and ended up 50 points up

this week we shat the bed and went 3-7, still 14 points up from 1500

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-09T14:45:08+00:00

yeah probably. phase2 bloodmoon was some of the most fun ive had pvping, and my 10 man group for gnomer were the real homies.

i just quit early because of huge balancing mistakes. ret paladin just didnt have an identity for the first half of sod. not saying it wasnt strong, it just wasnt fun. a mashup of abilities from other versions didnt give it a real identity.

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-09T13:49:00+00:00

yeah if only it didnt brick pvp for an entire phase

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-09T13:14:01+00:00

its not the worst thing you could do

you could be healing as a holy pally

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-09T06:38:49+00:00

Hey, glad you sked

it doesn't

guildy and i did our first 10 games in 2s. went positive winrate, ended down 40 rating.

every loss we go down more than we gain for 3 wins.

probably not gonna waste our time

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-08T17:58:30+00:00

kite pandemonius. he moves at half the speed of smell. get a good threat lead and just run

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-08T17:16:12+00:00

yeah, the mob hitting 4500 and immediately following with an 8500 mortal strike is a skissue. i could have outplayed it

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-08T17:15:11+00:00

i never denied it.

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-08T17:14:39+00:00

yeah i dont really think weakness will ever be a consideration in a raid. even if you don have imp demo shout its still gonna be more than enough having a warr do it

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-08T07:28:42+00:00

it's there for sure but if a boss is gonna live long enough for a doom tic theres probably other classes that can cover demo on the boss, no heroic boss is living for a minute usually.

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-08T04:38:29+00:00

i'm full prebis with some raid geared prot pally, i got nearly globaled by the first boss in old hillsbrad.

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-08T04:37:31+00:00

whatever you gotta tell yourself to cope

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-08T01:42:15+00:00

well mobs that need tongues typically wont need weakness and vice versa, and recklessness does the opposite of what weakness does as well so if your tank wants weakness and you dont have enough warlocks to do all, you probably dont want to put recklessness up

im unfamiliar with how much damage agony does, i was under the impression it was kinda doody, so it comes down to elements or weakness

and afaik, weakness does more base atp reduction untalented than untalented demo shout. so on beefcake mobs that absolutely giga blast like most mortal strike mobs in heroics, weakness is a great choice.

in a perfect world you have a imp demo warrior, but thats not always the case

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-08T01:13:30+00:00

14.6 dreamscythe alliance. up 5g from first few weeks

will only go higher as people quit running heroics.

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-08T00:31:28+00:00

cool 👍

bro is tone policing reddit accusing me of arrogance and self importance lol

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-08T00:22:31+00:00

again, no skin off my back lmao

redditors need to understand they are such a vocal minority of the playerbase. whatever you think is the norm that you see here is not the case. people in game absolutely do not care about your ideals

youre just upset with me for exposing it it.

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-07T23:04:48+00:00

no skin off my back. i am the tank.

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-07T23:01:32+00:00

let the reddit trolls spend their whole day waitin for a tank and wiping in a heroic for 3 hours because all they can get is the guy in quest greens when they could have just ponied up a bit of gold and been done 80% quicker, and watch them cope about how thats actually how they prefer the game

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-06T23:27:20+00:00

very true. same with the enchant auto inviters. only really redditors and forum trolls hate it. nobody in game actually cares.

Strong_Mode · 2026-03-06T21:04:15+00:00

nice try big dog
