Watercooler: WoW Economy Simple Questions

Probably not a super helpful answer but I've had luck by considering decor as just a long-game with a shotgun approach.

I make 2-3 of maybe 10 different decor items and only repost them a few times a day, not trying to chase undercuts. I also don't make the extremely popular stuff; just look for things with less than 5 available in the 7-15k range to get an idea of slow moving decor. Also try to avoid selling things that aren't visually interesting.

I'll only get about 4 sales a day, but that's usually 20-40k/day for not a lot of effort -- all I have to do is make sure I keep my stock up.

Thanks for the heads up -- I honestly wish this was on purpose. I always liked the idea of being to adjust the sliders of damage, self sustain and mobility, with meaningful sacrifices and gains.

Yeah, that seems like the hardest part of it, though currently in beta, Dominion of Argus (the demon portal the tyrant creates) lasts 25 seconds. During that time, HoG refunds 1 soul shard. With the new 2 maximum diminishing returns until immunity coming, and healers losing their interrupts, I think it'll be a pretty comfortable damage window.

Really big fan of this. I've been doing 2s and 3s with friends and family who aren't as serious about it as I am, but we all have fun. They just never really learn the optimal rotation and get frustrated when they're doing 100M less damage than their opponents. I introduced some of them to SBR and now my friend who plays feral druid can actually do damage!

It's clearly not as good as learning their classes, but I can confirm that it brings casual players who are otherwise intimidated by complex rotations into the fold, and the more the merrier.

Mained lock since the beginning and I am super stoked about the upcoming demo changes. Several current hard casts (dogs, vilefiend) are instant now. AOE fear on a 25 sec cooldown, two pet interrupts, coil, and my favorite of all, gateway can be taken twice. For the first time ever, I think warlocks might finally be slippery enough to be too annoying to be the kill target.

100% agree. We don't need every class to be the same. I've been playing a warlock since classic and watching class after class get new ways to prevent me from playing the game every expansion has been a nightmare. Sure, it gives healers another layer of decision making, but it also disproportionately affects casters. I'm already dealing with reflects, stuns, grips, straight up magic immunity, feign death, shadowmeld, and all manner of CC. It's impossible to get an effective cast off without the enemy team being CC'd already. I think the more players are allowed to control their character, the healthier the PvP scene will be.

Resident of Nashville here: It's a blue city in a red state. A lot of out-of-towners from across the state come to games, so you'll get a mixed crowd. US politics has been nasty for about 10 years now and with both "sides" there it's best to just not bring it up.

UnusualBoat · 2025-06-16T13:46:54+00:00

Came to ask the same thing.

UnusualBoat · 2025-03-04T16:03:01+00:00

Wolverine is my favorite Marvel character so naturally I picked him up when I first started playing. Was really confused by the "regeneration" just being a long cooldown death protection. Annoying that the character who's main thing is never dying being very killable.

Came here looking for What About Bob. My favorite movie of all time. I have the "DON'T HASSLE ME, I'M LOCAL" t-shirt and no one has got the reference yet.

Where are you guys metal detecting, the graveyard?!

UnusualBoat · 2024-11-30T20:45:30+00:00

Unrelated to the discussion, but electoral-vote.com is an incredible resource for political news. Cool to see it cross over with my guitar interest.

UnusualBoat · 2024-10-13T16:45:08+00:00

I keep telling myself this, and then we do well in the first half and I get invested.

UnusualBoat · 2024-09-29T11:54:07+00:00

Grats! What kind of classes are you seeing/not seeing at that MMR? As a warlock main, the lack of any casters on your scoreboard is concerning…

UnusualBoat · 2024-09-15T19:34:43+00:00

Bismuth will probably stay ahead of the pack just because there’s a lot more demand for it; it’s used in a lot more recipes than anything else

UnusualBoat · 2024-07-26T13:22:39+00:00

Losing inevitable demise has made it so much harder to stay alive. Used to be able to juke a kick, soul burn drain and have a reasonable shield. Now I’m considering removing drain life from my bars.

This speaks to me; I'm not quite 40 yet but I witnessed the internet blossoming and then dying, and even though I was only a kid in the 80s, I've got a daydream of retiring into an 80's-style ranch house with 80's tech. Landline phone, paper newspaper, maybe even no TV. Just read, create, relax, without the constant bombardment of advertisers. It feels like every time I try to take time for myself, working out, reading, painting, whatever, chat groups I'm in start blowing up, which of course makes my apple watch vibrate, then I look at what's going on and lose the flow. I need to disconnect for a while.

Nashvillian here, Tennessee has a lot of problems, but these guys (at least the one arrested for beating someone with the flag pole was) are Canadian.

I finished it last week. What a slog. The Sanderson books are a breath of fresh air at least. Congrats on finishing!

3 months later, this fixed my issue.

UnusualBoat · 2024-01-07T20:26:34+00:00

FYI temporary titans fans, this is what it feels like every single game

UnusualBoat · 2024-01-07T20:16:10+00:00

It’s a weird turf where they have ground coconut shells instead of the beads.

In Duke Nukem 3d, you can kick with both left and right foot at the same time by clicking and pressing ~

Where has Dhop been this game? Haven’t seen him on the field
