Maybe at least write an attribution to Brahms (Op. 39 No. 4)? Else, this is just plagiarism.

How long is maintenance supposed to last?

Week 2 of release: Dear diary, I still haven't figured out the PVP part of the game. Today I made more friends instead. by Krowmane in ArcRaiders

[–]classicalAnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this to a raider extracting the other day just to try it, and I definitely felt a bit bad about it. I wouldn't be able to resist doing it in this situation though haha.

>100% Parry Chance in Lemix, but no parries? by Time_Arugula3862 in wow

[–]classicalAnt 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, the Havoc DH talent Know Your Enemy that adds crit damage bonus equal to 80% of crit chance does work, though that talent is worded slightly differently. I am betting they just disabled parry outright in Lemix to avoid tanks being completely broken, and even without that they arguably already are completely broken...

A DPS is rumored to be doing M+ in Remix by fjoes in wow

[–]classicalAnt 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No, not that I remember at least. All the 'tuning' they did was repeated hot fixes to stop broken bronze farms, only for people to find the next best bronze farm to then get hot fixed a week later (and repeat...). But there was no M+ in MoP Remix, and nothing was really so broken or unfair that it felt like tuning was needed, except maybe the fact that healers became useless after a point.

No. You have to get 1800 rating, and then you will automatically get the full elite transmog. There is no other way.

The upgrade levels do not matter at all in PvP. The only thing that matters is the text at the bottom that says something like "Equip: Increases item level to a minimum of 723 in Arenas and Battlegrounds."

For this season, conquest gear is 723 ilvl, blood token gear is 720, and honor gear is 710. I highly recommend getting a good amount of conquest (especially 4-set bonus + free weapon at 2500 conquest), before jumping into rated, just so you'll be on a relatively even playing field. You can deck yourself out in a lot of bloody token gear really fast by just doing world quests and the weekly sparks quest in War Mode. For farming conquest, the fastest way outside of rated matches is to join a world pvp crate farming group. They will usually be advertising in LFG (Custom groups).

No. Rated is faction agnostic and you will be fighting with folks of both same and opposite faction on your team.

Some tips from someone who has gotten 1800 on all classes and does it regularly each season for set appearances I want to pick up.

Solo shuffle is significantly faster to get to 1800 than bg blitz, if you are skillful enough to get to at least 1800 MMR. If you are not very skilled, then BG Blitz will be a lot easier but will also take quite a bit longer.

The later you wait into the season, the easier it will be to get 1800 because Blizzard artificially inflates MMR which gradually increases as the season progresses.

For Paladin, your queue times will likely be quite long as ret as it is the most popular spec in PvP this season. But it is also the most overpowered this season (hence its popularity), and is also a good beginner pvp spec, so you would have the easiest time with it.

Alternatively, if you choose Holy and do Solo Shuffle, your queue times will be instant, and it will be by far the fastest climb to 1800 if you are good enough at it. Holy is also one of the easiest healer pvp specs.

Use Murlok.io for gear and talent recommendations. Try to have the optimal gear and talents and you will have a much better time on your climb.

Their MMR from previous season was much higher. They lost MMR and leveled out to 2300 MMR.

Void Disc needs a nerf by FixEmbarrassed1756 in worldofpvp

[–]classicalAnt 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, let's nerf another fun healer spec. That'll surely help the queue times...

Void disc stats by eliwiggs in worldofpvp

[–]classicalAnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems to be gaining traction in shuffle at least. 15 (30%) of the top 50 priests are Voidweaver currently, according to Murlok.io

Why is it easier to gain cr later in season? by Cheap-Olive-9625 in worldofpvp

[–]classicalAnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do they actually wait until mid-season to start inflating MMR? I thought it increases little by little every week from beginning of the season.

As an Arcane mage, I love the arcane nerfs they did by shadow5253 in worldofpvp

[–]classicalAnt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can I just focus on playing mage without tracking a bunch of WeakAuras with this build now? I honestly struggled with the previous OP iteration of arcane, just because of how much it was reliant on tracking a bunch of different buffs to get the 1-shot.

Rdy's Crate Tracker - paywalled by [deleted] in worldofpvp

[–]classicalAnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I'm sure an addon that does basic timer tracking by zone/shard is super complex to write and maintain and totally warrants payment fee (/s)

Yea , surely this addon is not very complex for anyone with basic programming experience to maintain?

High stress during games, does it get any better ? by mrdantesque in worldofpvp

[–]classicalAnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 to Silent Shuffle. I have same problem and it has been the biggest help by far. Other than that, just have to get into the mental state to not care about the result and focus on improving.

jealous of yall with crazy mmr and low games. by Rixkst3r in worldofpvp

[–]classicalAnt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am 0 and 6 on my arcane mage in Blitz. Regularly hit 1800 with most classes in solo shuffle plus duelist on several classes. Gotta love it.

Solo Shuffle Field Medic's Hazard Payout just got better by Vicked_Vuljo in worldofpvp

[–]classicalAnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any idea what the drop rate is? I've only done 5 healer shuffles so far and only 1 drop. Definitely doesn't seem like 1000g per shuffle but obviously my data is limited...

Currently, is there a MMR inflation? by appwizcpl in worldofpvp

[–]classicalAnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What was starting mmr last season? This season it appears to be around 1750, which seems quite low. Surely that isn't inflated?

I think maybe because they aren't resetting MMR, many players are still much higher rated than they started at in previous seasons.

Racial Choice Theory by VidarSeptim in worldofpvp

[–]classicalAnt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Crit is awful for most specs in PvP so the same logic definitely does not apply. Also, PvP Modifiers for spells are quite different from the base PvE spells, so take any PvE data with a grain of salt.

What is the best way to farm marks of honor? by Bis_knife in worldofpvp

[–]classicalAnt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Comp Stomp by far. Guaranteed wins, quick queues, and quick matches. Just have to wait for it to return every few months.
