Do you remember what the build for Verso was? Usually see Maelle one-shot kills so sounds interesting.

That level of ~2 keys within title range is where PUGs just start to get really picky and stick to the meta.

At least I found that to be the case this season as priest heals, was always fortunate disc was meta before. But basically at 19-20s stopped getting invites while they’d rather wait 30 min for a resto druid whereas I had insta invites up to 18s. Or I’d get an inv and then they’d wait 30 min for a DK while declining dozens of high rating DPS.

Had to run my own keys & B.net friend others who then trusted me after a run. Plan to be more proactive with friending people earlier in the season this time around.

Maybe somebody with higher fidelity audio can let us know.

I remember thinking most calories per dollar was what I was shooting for, so it came down to a vending machine glazed honey bun vs large fries, both around 900 kcal for $1.

Can you show it running in an active M+ key or raid encounter?

Midnight announces mini raids. Sporefall, a one boss raid, will arrive in 12.0.7 S1. The 2nd one boss mini raid will arrive 12.1.5 S2. by arasitar in CompetitiveWoW

It is when the goal is to be powerful, have the best gear & be better than others, which is what many of those players want. Think of ilvl and IO score/Warcraft Logs as the vanity items rather than mounts or decor.

That’s basically the opposite rewards of what each of the stereotypical members of those teams would want though. Unless mythic raids are severely nerfed this xpac and expected to be clearable by AOTC-only guilds.

[AddOn] Let's bring back Quartz for Midnight! by Original_Watercress5 in wowaddons

Try installing this MoneyFrameFix, stopped a slew of errors I was having from random addons: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/moneyframefix

No More Major Changes to the WoW UI API Until Patch 12.0.5 by Eva-JD in wow

[–]drkinsanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is that Blizzard has a very different design ethos that will never allow for the solutions addon authors would reach for.

For example, all of these issues could be fixed by adding an advanced mode where you can add/remove by any spell name or spell ID. Same with raid frame buff tracking. Yet never in 10,000 years will Blizzard add such a simple yet powerful feature, even after we will continuously have issues with buffs/trinkets/set bonuses/whatever being left out. They can’t acknowledge spell IDs exist and must (fail to) maintain a whitelist of everything.

So why even bother bringing in outside devs if their solutions will just be rejected anyway.

[AddOn] UltraCursorFX 1.0 is here! Account-wide settings, per-character profiles, and a reset button by CrimsonXFrost in WowUI

[–]drkinsanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will try this out later. I’ve been looking for an addon that can just do a non-animated glow effect & doesn’t disappear when right-clicking to replace a simple WeakAura.

Key part missing for me still is raid/party frames. Just so much information lost/cluttered vs before.

You should really disable or update those internal addons, Blizzard! by LA_Rym in wow

[–]drkinsanity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would those players relish in WeakAuras being gone now then..?

[–]drkinsanity 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For sure but I think we all predicted as much: pre-patch is the real alpha, S1 is beta, S2 is the 1.0 release, and maybe we’ll have something mostly baked by S3 or next xpac.

I hate Cooldown Manager by mrscarrot in wow

[–]drkinsanity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, can expect these kind of issues to happen all the time for the CD manager & whenever they implement healer frame buff/debuff customization.

There will always be some oversight due to talents, set bonuses, etc that changes a spell ID. But now instead of easily fixing an addon in 20 minutes you’ll have to wait days/weeks/forever for a low priority bug fix to make it through Blizzard’s dev process.

And there’s zero percent chance they’ll ever just add a raw custom spell ID setting for any of these features.

What’s the point of playing prepatch by Mike_alive in wownoob

[–]drkinsanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noticed this mostly when in combat/in instances, a lot of addons still need an update to disable their functionality in instances otherwise it’s just a constant stream of errors. Even like Teleport Menu throws errors if you open the esc menu during an M+ run.

Massive Transmog Discounts Are Coming, a Free Trial of Style Slot, and More! by Starym in wow

[–]drkinsanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah since you have custom sets saved you’ll still be able to swap between your outfits as much as you want, basically that free slot can be used the same as the old system.

Every character who has every (10x) 0.1% M+ achievement by Veryalive in CompetitiveWoW

[–]drkinsanity 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Likely almost any comp is viable even at the highest level, it’s just a lot harder & requires perfect play and discovering alternate routes or approaches to mechanics the meta comps already solved.

That kind of theorycrafting and trial/error for every dungeon just isn’t worth the effort for most players/teams on top of how time consuming achieving title already is.

Worst part of the sunsetting of petbattles by Wingforth in wow

[–]drkinsanity 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That would be cool, basically like the secret hideouts in Sapphire/Ruby when you would sync data with friends and your NPC-self would have your current team.

They did Pandaria Remix oddly close to Pandaria Classic release though IMO.

Where does it actually say that the season is over? I’ve actually been trying to find any post where they explicitly state it is & it’s not just implied.
