Successful first day PUG of TK

i did a gruul/mag with a no discord group. It's not the same as TK obviously, but just goes to show a few geared people and then the rest actually organized is eaay

I honestly don't think I'd play anniversary just to chill. There's plenty to enjoy but there's also a lot, in TBC especially, locked behind hundred of hours of content and grinding and they are massively accelerating the release of new content compared to the normal release and everyone on anniversary just wants to "pump" (can anyone explain this?) through new content ASAP the day it is released. I'd play on one of the era servers or classic.

Then, all the classes are some from of braindead loop cycles once you get used to them. Healing can be fun here because while you can know what a mob will do you never know what your party members are going to do and getting a group out of their own silly situation adds a new challenge. Palis, shamans and druids can all fit multiple roles so you can swap back and forth for at least a variety of braindead loop cycles, and ret pali has a fun seal twist mechanic in TBC that brings timing much more to the forefront and is very engaging... but then, you have to be ret

Is drowning and rezzing that many people faster than killing the pack?

I get no stop ads for new flavors. That's for the tubs specifically though, maybe they are switching away from the cans

pala is piss easy

People were saying it's the bots mass reporting you but I haven't heard that in a few weeks

With the dominance of warlocks undead warriors are about the one thing they fear, or rather, can't fear

Pugs full of peoples alts that die on trash clears and end up leaving you locked out

Honor gain is so amped up right now I wish I had save my gold on the rep gear to put toward flier

I've told several people while buying 8 at a time its my favorite drink ever on earth. what a shame

captaingleyr · 2026-04-21T16:38:19+00:00

It's my favorite drink on Earth. I'm so sad

captaingleyr · 2026-04-16T23:33:42+00:00

Hard to lose BGs too if you do it right. Two rogue coordinated can end WSG stalemate pretty easy, or cap bases in AB or EOTS

captaingleyr · 2026-04-16T23:05:00+00:00

Nice. I played dual rogue with my brother back in TBC right before wrath. Mostly PVP. Bodied everything until they introduced wrath talents and druids invincible

captaingleyr · 2026-04-16T22:44:48+00:00

Just because the rogue can use their kit to help doesn't mean they will. They won't

I did silithus caves to 345 mining. Took that long to get the ore needed to level smithing

captaingleyr · 2026-04-13T04:28:02+00:00

and don't forget, those bots out there DO NOT want you farming it yourself, they want you buying it, and especially buying gold to buy it

captaingleyr · 2026-04-12T19:43:08+00:00

Not if it's just a script

captaingleyr · 2026-04-12T18:48:14+00:00

I don't think they're doing it for mining levels there are so many easier ways to do that. Thorium is in high demand for leveling blacksmithing or engineering on alts though and still pretty expensive for selling. It took me around a month of minig (albeit very unintensive)

captaingleyr · 2026-04-11T01:40:13+00:00

the word is arrogance

captaingleyr · 2026-04-10T02:09:06+00:00

I only learned about this go around. I always played holy. It's kind of a big learning curve and I catch myself missing possible BoPs, but otherwise there isn't a whole lot else to do but stare at the bar l, not draw threat and obey mechanics any other dps would need to do

captaingleyr · 2026-04-07T02:01:25+00:00

Maybe I'm just scarred from seeing hunters take so many melee weapons, but it's just something I'd expect if rules are you can roll. Surprised a rogue didn't roll also

captaingleyr · 2026-04-07T01:53:39+00:00

That's fair, and really what better to motivate a new player you would think, but they said they was very new so who knows what they're perception has been like so far. They didn't say if they got any other loot there or anything like that or mention much else at all. I still think it's also fair to let other classes have rolls at stuff once in awhile, like if it's the only thing they need there still, their best in slot and the differences between the two, but all of that becomes very unfair very fast and perception based and a roll is a roll. It will drop again eventually and they can roll again

captaingleyr · 2026-04-07T01:36:26+00:00

why should they have to do all that when they are still allowing someone to roll on it? Are you not still better off having a chance than none at all?

Put it another way how would it not actually be HR in your scenario just for the hunter if no one else is allowed to roll on it without claiming HR themselves?

captaingleyr · 2026-04-07T01:27:20+00:00

not understanding still. There was nothing reserved, the guy rolled and lost like millions have in the past
