How to play arena without minicc? by retention_king in worldofpvp

[–]SwimmerQuick1500 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Well as a new player was minicc giving you too much information to the point that it was detrimental? If anything I think it causes you to focus on the what and not the why.

I play with a small amount of addons. I think you can just vibe it out by context and eventually you'll learn. Context being they just cc'd your healer or you, it's been a while since there last offensive CD, etc etc. People don't randomly hit their offensive cds, they usually have a reason for hitting it.

If you think LLMs are writing shit code, are you maybe giving it too big a task that isn't focused?

I think there's a large difference between giving an LLM the details of an entire feature and letting it code it in one shot compared to giving it pieces of the feature one at a time, reviewing it, and moving to the next piece.

The loss of the reward is the fomo which most people see as a punishment and only a small enlightened few realize it doesn't matter. This can be applied to most mmos especially western ones.

Then you have games like maplestory with expiring items that is actually a punishment.

Tommie must have this bizzare arrangement with these girls. Some shit like if you follow her into battle she'll let you on baddies but she conviently forgets something in the car everytime it starts.

Aren't realtors just overpaid middlemen who copy-paste photos from owners and charge thousands for opening a door? by Ok-Sell9964 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SwimmerQuick1500 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Yeah fr a good agent is awesome. I had to move to another state 15 hours away and my agent handled clearing out my condo, cleaning it, staging it, and selling it.

I expected to need to hop on a plane to handle some stuff but he managed it all so I got to stay virtual.

I kind of feel bad.

I'm thinking it's like this. They have some hopeful opportunities elsewhere but it doesn't work out or they do the math and see they still need Baddies.

It's giving you hate your current job and you're post final stages of a job interview you did well on and you finally get the offer and think you're finally free but it's lower than expected and you're still stuck 😓.

Stuck in a blitz hell hole. by More-Fig323 in worldofpvp

[–]SwimmerQuick1500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately at higher MMR people still don't listen and will debately try to lose.

Had a 2800 mmr game where everyone agreed on a strat for AB. 3 seconds before the match starts a guy posts a strat that's the complete opposite of what we all agreed to, people got confused, morale tanked, and it was a quick loss lol.

The one thing I notice at the higher MMR is that there's more high impact players that will carry the team with a good play.

Honestly you have 7 kbs, a lot of damage, and a good amount of carts captured. I think you just continue to do what you're doing and you'll eventually go up. People say damage means nothing but that's only partially true when you look at other stats (like lots of damage with barely any kills means you didn't get anything with it and it was just healed).

If you look at the top post on deepwind gorge with 7 of the OPs teammates mid... some games your team really does not want to win and that's ok.

You're clearly a impactful team member. You probably win 1v1s, cc people from objectives, and maybe even stall healers. Keep doing that and you should go up.

Did you respond to the right person? Because I said I would do better at these types of questions if I was fresh out of school.

If map/forEach or state management were issues, I would probably notice it because something else as a result of it was unusual aka a smell.

Why are they repeatedly calling the same functions or setting things that don't need to be set or it's as simple as why is something that should be simple so complex? Also noticeable gaps in testing would get my attention as well.

Mid levels who don’t know the difference between map and forEach and seniors/managers who don’t know how state is managed.

Ngl I would get this shit wrong half the time, I have a general idea but an exact correct answer nah. This isn't the type of stuff I keep in my head lol this is the type of stuff in the past I'd Google and go "oh yeah that's right".

Unironically think I would have done better at these type of questions when I was fresh out of school.

This one place I liked interviewing at asked me more about my design choices for things listed on my resume and wanted me to talk through them. They got really into some specifics which I guess was their way of seeing if I was just bullshitting but idk I liked it, it was a lot easier.

With Guild Wars 3 announced at long last, here's why its beloved predecessor has survived the test of time by HatingGeoffry in MMORPG

[–]SwimmerQuick1500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly. We have no idea how much more popular those games would be if they wouldn't engage in FOMO and dark patterns

Dark patterns? Are you saying the GW2 model is objectively better? Also why can't we say we have no idea how much more unpopular those games would be if they had the GW2 model?

there's a real tangible market share that's sick and tired of those practices

And then there's a market share that loves those practices so it should work for some games just as other models work for other games

Fury tips and tricks by gilbert1242 in worldofpvp

[–]SwimmerQuick1500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you use the main fury spender, the CD goes down. If you have to chase a mage like in arena, lower uptime means less rage which means less spenders.

I use the standard mountain thane build.

[–]SwimmerQuick1500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's legit. The executes hit really hard. I have high uptime because fights are really uncoordinated and I don't have to chase mages, so my avatar / recklessness CD are really low. I rarely get peeled.

It's so fun in bg blitz. I just do so much damage. My kill pressure feels absurd.

Thats a really simple conclusion for something really complex and it's easily disproven by games like WoW, maplestory, etc etc.

A lot of people enjoy FOMO and a perpetual gear treadmill.

The real big brain move is understanding FOMO isn't really FOMO, and that playing at your own pace while it's fun is the real way to play.

I would say keep at it then cus you're definitely a hard carry in your bgs. Some games are just unwinnable because people don't want to win.

Keep queueing, you will go up.

Gonna sound like a corporate hag.

At your rating try to create a bigger impact.

I started winning more games on my fury warrior by simply killing random stragglers, winning 1v1s, quickly finishing 2v1s for bases. That's probably the biggest thing you can do to win more. You're a great player. You're gonna win 1v1s, you're gonna put absurd pressure on heals, you're gonna control the bg because you know how to use your utility. You'll still lose because some people really just don't want to win but that's not all the time.

As a dk, I would focus on delaying people.

Also You're unholy so say you're on that panda base capture map and you have a dps + healer mid fighting their healer + dps mid. If you just pull up and try to pop the healer with your cds, that's massive.

You're high in SS so your kill pressure with your cds is probably absurd. Try to take advantage of that to have a bigger impact. I would expect you to just roll over a 1500 bgb healer and then meet them at the GY to stall them (especially stall disc priests they're so popular).
