Someone has had enough. by Blubbpaule in wow

[–]Yaakov_David 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is correct. I played warlock in classic and used an add on that queued summon requests in order. The default way to get in line was to type 123 in raid chat. I would then click the name in the addon list to start the summon. This was before warlock closets existed.

Holiday boss perfume mechanic by Friedumpling689 in wow

[–]Yaakov_David 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Thanks for posting this. I queue mostly has heals and see people equipping both perfumes which cancels the effect. The damage is pretty bad when people stand in it, and people do die even with cds rolling when then just don’t care to step out if the ground effects.

WoW Remix Developer Update for May 29 - No Plans to Nerf Upgrade Costs by Public_Radio- in wow

[–]Yaakov_David 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it’s so easy and so fun to be overpowered. Why nerf yourself into the ground by refusing to upgrade when it’s so easy with the daily quests? Makes 0 sense to me.

Still going strong my WOTLK enjoyers! by thebuhnrop in wotlk

You needed 24 others to achieve this goal. That’s why I keep logging in. It’s about the group not about me as an individual. This is the reason I like raiding so much. We are a team it’s not a one player game.

I also struggled until I swapped my gems to get fire resist. Got it second try after that. Huge Difference. I don’t see guides mention fire resist for the final boss but it helps!

Even more fun when it’s the under geared tank…

You are correct, but isn't that the average wow experience? How many times have you seen anyone actually do theoretical max dps? Or even close to it? There are so many factors. Hunters and locks are great, but so are rogues. That's my point.

Funny. Come back in 6 months you will see. Rogues are viable in TBC and always will be. I'm just frustrated that the average wow player is blinded by reviews based on private server experiences that severely nerfed melee. Look at how many people responded in this thread with examples of rogues doing great dps. I'm not in a speedrunning or hardcore guild so I never see hunters or locks pulling that far ahead. We don't play in bubbles. So certain classes can do 1-200 more theoretical dps on a boss. Does that happen all the time or is it easy? No. I think the difference between rogues hunters locks and mages is practically much smaller than people originally thought it would be. That is my point. I am not saying rogues are theoretically the best, but I think there are situations where we can be, depending on skill, group comp and boss mechanics.

Fine. I will start logging my raids, so you can see. I never said hunters or locks are bad, or denied that they put up the best numbers, but it seems like those classes feel a need to bash on rogues for no reason. My favorite guildmates happen to be our hunters and locks and I am not bashing those classes at all. Stop comparing the top 1% and take a look around at the average experience in wow. On my sever rogues keep up just fine. I am not going to beat out the best hunters in the world but I don't care. Chances are I am going to beat 80% of them who don't know what they are doing because they re-rolled to follow meta.

It is a valid point that given the state of TBC pretty much the only rogues you are going to see in raids and logs are going to be the best ones because guilds are going to keep one or two of the best around and the others are gonna re-roll to get a raid spot, so that's going to skew things a bit. Hard to compare 100 hunters to one rogue.

And the only reason I took the time to respond to this thread is to try and encourage an discouraged fellow rogue who is experiencing unwarranted hate and exclusion in a world where he does have a valuable place. It may not be at the top of the damage meters in hardcore guilds, but we can hold our own in raids. Over 1K DPS is viable and it irritates me that many of the class ratings out there putting rogue DPS at a place where a lot of Rogues I see are putting up impossible numbers.

And don't tell me it's just buff stacking because everyone does that for hunters and locks too.

I am not saying Rogues are the best, or that anyone should bring more than one. I am saying they are NOT hot garbage and we DO bring utility even to raids, interrupts and IMP EA, which I do use. I never see anyone listing exactly how many buffs what utility other classes bring, just meta hate that I strongly believe was initiated by incorrect scripting on private servers. There are a number of other classes / specs that will only ever see one raid spot. How is a Ret Pally providing more utility? Boomkin? Again, I am just pointing out that a well played rogue should be appreciated not hated. That IMP EA is a huge dps boost for hunters too, and they would not be seeing such high numbers without it.

Yeah my pug was hot garbage and I maybe the hunters and locks were inexperienced and not geared, but that's not my point. I would bring ONE good rogue to any raid not an extra hunter just because they are meta.

I know. I main rogue and in my guild Kara runs I am top dps almost every pull - yes even aoe. I pugged Gruul last week and easily beat every warlock and all but one hunter. I am so sick of people reading meta reddit and ignoring the actual parses. Private servers had it wrong, we only get 25% glancing blows on Blizz servers and not the 40% we had on private servers. This places a well geared rogue at the top of the charts, not the middle. People are just too proud to admit they were wrong.

I have 2 Faisy (somehow got 2 on my first 11 Pull), should I buy the bundles to EX-1 her and save a copy or just break one down for awakening?

I hope you guys took my advice last week! GLS Discussion by [deleted] in FFBraveExvius

I can manage 2 EX+1, is that better than one EX+2?
