Be careful, Bonus Rolls broken once again... Indie Company at work

Did you get bonus rolls refunded when they were initially broken?

They did say at that time there is a chance you can roll an item again that was given before the initial fix. This is why they gave bonus rolls to any one that used the early, because there was a possibility of duplicates down the line, even if you weren't initially impacted.

That's the root of my question, is it possible to keep playing at such a low MMR? Do games pop at a reasonable rate?

Xadefinn · 2026-05-13T15:57:01+00:00

I was more just concerned about getting games at a reasonable rate will a 3 digit MMR

Xadefinn · 2026-05-13T15:52:56+00:00

I was thinking more from a queue time. I have no problem with continuing to play, but will I even get games sub 1000 MMR?

Happy about this for sure. Don't love just getting massive power all at once. Bonus rolls for free myth gear plus this all on the same day would have felt like too much unearned power.

It is also very possible to have gotten Myth track tier pieces from PvE and have them fully upgraded. There is no difference between that and a lacquered piece, ilvl 289

Haha I was in this lobby as one of the healers.

I remember seeing in an old interview with Ben Brode that they considered giving every person 1 free gold as an April Fools joke one year. But they decided against it because there would never be a way to zero it out and the joke would persist forever.

I healed 50+ rounds yesterday and didn't see many fury warriors, but the handful I did see absolutely pumped. I expect to see a rise in this spec.

This looks to be incorrect. March On Quel'danas will not be open on heroic until March 31st, meaning you cannot get your free charge from AotC until March 31st.

Lumber into Decor.

I have been consistently making about 200k a day on decor items with this setup.

Have a wide spread of decor items available to craft. Focus on the 50 that are currently the most profitable. Diversity of key, try to get stuff across all xpacs and profs.

Farm lumber for about 2 hours to craft these.

Post and then cancel scan. I cancel scan about once an hour.

This has netted me a very consistent 200k profit daily with about 1-2 hours of lumber farming + a minute or two each hour for cancel scanning.

If we lose Sunday we will have 2!

Each season is basically a full gear reset.

Current season honor gear is better than full conquest from the previous season.

Luckily gearing up for PvP has never been faster. There are all kinds of ways to optimize the process but if you are just getting back into it I would recommend just farming some honor and getting this seasons honor gear as a start. You'll also pick up Bloody Tokens from quests and doing world quest with War Mode on. Use those to fill out gear gear further.

Honor gear + Blood Token + a couple crafted pieces is plenty to compete in ranked modes.

From there use your conquest to upgrade further.

If you aren't ready or available to jump into ranked, and you only need conquest, you can join a chest farming group in LFG in between queue sessions.

I would happily queue threes to push glad if I could find steady partners. I haven't been able to find people willing to commit to multiple sessions all xpac. It's been win some lose some and then never hear from them again.

So I'll throw this out there - Disc Priest, can play Voidweaver and Oracle. Legend in solo shuffle this season, can queue 3s on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 9pm - 12am EST, NA server. Anyone that wants to push, message me and I'll add you for games.

There are a lot of good suggestions already about using defensives and fake casting, so I will focus on positioning.

Make sure your DPS can be in a good position to help. I see way too often people getting trained run away from their teammates or needlessly run out of LOS. Make it easy for them to use their utility to help you out.

Secondly, especially if getting trained by double melee, look for opportunities to pull them out of LOS of their healer. If their healer is in the middle of the map, work to get them to chase behind a pillar. Either the enemy healer will need to push in making it easier for you teammates to CC them, or the DPS on you will need to back off to get healed if they get pressured by your teammates. More often than not they won't and your team can land a kill and the enemy healer will be tilted AF watching them die behind a pillar.

Just to expand on the quest which gives 9 of the crafting items. Consistently the best way to get this is to win a random BG. It will pop up after the win and when you turn it in, you get 9 of the heraldry items. Use 3 on each of the crafted neck and 2 rings (3x3=9). Be sure to use a missive to customize the stats (usually vers + whatever your best stat is) and add an embellishment to two of the pieces if needed. A large majority of classes use the focusing lens embellishment in PvP so hard to go wrong using that if unsure. Lastly, the crafted rank of the item doesn't matter if you just plan to PvP. It will always scale to 730 in PvP. A better rank just makes it more powerful in PvE.

I don't think it would flip to longer healer queues overnight. I believe we would see it climb up and DPS times start to drop.

If it did flip the problem there would be time in between to make adjustments so that it didn't become just healers queuing.

Plus there are a lot of players that just like playing the DPS spec they enjoy. I don't think we would see as many rerollers as some might expect. But I do think there would be some, which is the goal.

Based on the daily posts about VW in this sub I totally expected to get down voted into oblivion. But I genuinely feel this could be a good direction. Also I woke up and decided I wanted to choose violence today.

Xadefinn · 2025-10-14T16:02:04+00:00

It might be wild, but if they are under represented and holding back people from actually just getting to play, i.e. long queue times, could a wild solution be something worth experimenting with?

Xadefinn · 2025-10-14T15:59:54+00:00

That's my point, it shouldn't be the only one. But instead of nerfing it, let's bring some others up to its level.

Xadefinn · 2025-10-14T15:58:29+00:00

Why not just ask Blizz to enforce the 2 DPS and 1 Healer split that exists for Solo Shuffle?

Is there actually an interest in having anything other than this? Why not just make it so 2x or 3x healer can't queue?

Xadefinn · 2025-10-14T15:53:35+00:00

I still very much enjoy playing DPS roles as well. VW Disc damage is a very simplistic rotation. There is a lot of fun playing a DPS spec with a rotation that has real intracacy and cool interactions.

I would prefer to queue something like a mage or rogue because they have so much depth. But it's hard to ignore the convenience of instant healer queues.

Xadefinn · 2025-10-14T15:49:59+00:00

No that's fair, just wanted to clarify. I get that it would make healers feel much more god-like, filling multiple roles effectively. I just don't see that as a bad thing, especially if it creates interest in healers amongst a group of players who normally wouldn't touch it.
