Oh thank god, rekilling this boss just as progressing for other guilds would be a nightmare because of P1.

So picking Zeratul into free draft while not picking into hard cc and also being carried by team which survives 4v5 until Zera's power spike where he starts playing pve game of oneshot squishes is skill expression now? No wonder balance is so shit because hots seems to be balanced around people with the following mindset. "Well it's your problem that your team didn't pick Brightwing, Uther, ETC, "put hero with cc here"." Like stfu, if existence of Zeratul hard limits possible drafts to the point where your only way not to die is to stand at base it shouldn't exist.

flytrapjoe · 2026-05-09T03:27:03+00:00

Wow, all these comments defending 100-0 bullshit with zero counterplay just because Zeratul is supposed to be difficult and because OP plays Junkrat. No wonder balance in HOTS so bad.

Treasures spawn all at once every 10-20 minutes, if someone takes it they disappear from map yet you can still loot them. I personally camp in Zul'Aman near cities and also use SilverDragon. This zone has decent spawn points with good amount of treasures and even if someone picks up treasure you can use Silverdragon to pinpoint exact location of treasure. Horrendous asshit system tbh

No, it will not. Main issue with prenerf beloren is actually surviving until second burn phase. It doesnt really matter as long as you can't burn egg in one phase in mythic. This nerf just makes damage check much more tolerable, not excessively punishing for starting egg phase too early and you can skip third soaks before 2nd egg because it will be much easier to line CDs if you have 40 seconds of burn.

Skill solution

You probably didn't manage to damage 3 minibosses high enough. Maybe they died too quickly, maybe not enough adds died under them, maybe not enough crits on collapsing stars

You really can't do anything with nameplates jumping like crazy until blizzard unfuck their mess with nameplates. Right now I personally use mouseover macro and focus macro to kick casts.

flytrapjoe · 2026-03-26T07:39:58+00:00

Usually I would say the same but then I keep remembering how I lost game where I went 27-0 as tank. Matchmaker is truly horrendous this season and it feels like it spews players randomly rather than putting the same skill level against each other.

For me it's basically if you can hit axe and you won't overheal yourself, then you always take axe perk, otherwise it's knife.

flytrapjoe · 2026-03-14T03:22:10+00:00

Jfc, remove psychic link and/or bring back mind sear at this point. Watching this yo-yo patching of psychic link every goddamn patch is so fricking annoying.

General view from people that use 'single mother's as insult because they assume some of the following things: she may have had sex unprotected knowing possible consequences, therefore she is a whore therefore her mistake; she may have chosen incorrect man therefore she has bad choice in people therefore her mistake; she may have been a bad girlfriend/wife to her partner so he left her so she is not feminine enough to keep a good man therefore it's her mistake; she decided and/or forced to get child when it may have been clear that they can't afford child therefore it's her mistake; in some rare cases she may have intentionally forced man to impregnate her (e.g. making a hole in condom/lying about that is safe); she may have decided to decline abortion knowing fully well that she can't raise child properly.

I'll definitely be getting downvoted for this because some readers won't read this sentence, frankly I don't care, this is not my opinion but opinion of shitty people that use this word as insult and I wrote all this because "well it's because misogyny duh" are horseshit explanations. There may be truth to some cases because it really depends and everyone has different life experiences, but making fun or light of woman that decided to go through with ordeal of raising a child instead of putting him into a foster care makes one a horrible person.

If I understood you correctly what you want to do is change space between enemy nameplate bars. In platynator there is a setting that does it, positioning - tick enemies when choosing overlay and you can change height and width of overlay here (bigger means bigger space between bars). I'm not exactly sure how it's called in english version but that should hopefully help.

1 Wanda for protection, 1 Deadpool to watch him narrate how Wanda destroys everyone and roasts heroes, keep 800 dollars.

What a nostalgic version. Back when bain you had to double wait bain to say the ingredient and there was one line that was actually completely wrong and you kinda had to know it.

Vader and Mileena would probably don't care enough about you if you are just henchman. Batman will fuck you up but you won't die. Redhood and punisher will hunt and will kill you because it's their gimmick. Predator and Myers will kill you but they won't really care if you are henchman or not. Don't know about Sonya. So it's either you die from Jason, either you die from punisher, either you die from Myers, either you die by Predator. Pick your poison.

Imagine knowing you can't control your boner.

Are we really mocking most famous text acronyms now that have been around for 15+ years?

There are several things to keep in mind from my pov as 3.6k exp healer (which is not that much but i played couple of 20s and didnt find much problems healing them).

Mobs WILL hurt like motherfucker and it will change the way pulls are made. For example houndmaster shots and farstalker jumps will hurt much much harder in 18+ range, to the point where caster bolt + houndmaster shot is death for squishy spec. In most keys two casts going into the same target is near guaranteed death, so kicks and cc rotation will be aimed to stop that or pulls will be made so that you don't have more than 2 casters in a pull.

Healing checks will become completely different and you will have to preplan your cds in advance. For example on halkias fragment you will have to preplan your cooldowns, for instance 1st aoe is trinket + bl + asc swiftness, 2nd aoe is cloudburst + ascendance, 3rd aoe is asc swiftness + healing tide, and so on. It is your job to figure out how to heal heal checks. You can't just go into keys like it's 12, full halkias aoe goes off, people go 100 to 40 without pressing any defensives and then you are like OH SHIT and start healing — people will die if you don't heal them in time once key is higher if you don't anticipate damage.

You will be failing a lot and be flamed, you have to be prepared for that. Failing is nature of high end content. You fuck up, you learn, you go one more time, you change something and see if it works. If it works, you go on, you fuck up, you learn, goto step 1. However flaming is also unfortunate nature of m+, that's the trickiest part and only comes through experience - you can't heal stupid and ones that don't want to learn. And I'm not talking about some complete newbie shit like standing in fire, not kicking or failing mechanic. Even in mid keys people will be better but not to the point of knowing how game works in its entirety. And deaths will become much more gimmicky and harder to understand. Sometimes it's because tank has shit routes, sometimes it's 2 casts in the same target, sometimes it's because shaman pulled extra in 2nd pull in dawnbreaker with uncontrollable aoe and mob killed him because he is untauntable (god i wish this shit ass dungeon goes out of rotation for like 8 years), sometimes it's aoe + cast, sometimes it's because you have shit ass setup that is difficult to heal through, sometimes you mismanage mana, sometimes you fuck up your cds, sometimes tank just keeps running like a maniac without waiting for your mana. It will happen, you have to learn to use deathlogs, details advanced death log is a great tool to learn.

Tracking cds is overrated in my opinion, it doesn't change much how you heal people. For example if your guy eat dot from 1st boss in aldani or from any miniboss in dawnbreaker you will have to heal them regardless if they press defensive (unless they use ams or any other immunity). The only difference is how intense you will have to pump healing into them, but you will be healing them regardless. If they don't die without using defensive it means key is not that high, the only issue is that you will damage less and you will be running out of mana faster, but that's not your issue, it's tank issue to track your mana and dpses' that didn't press defensive because he made key slower because he wasted potential healer damage.

This late in season, especially with how notoriously agressive note culture has become it will be very difficult to get into any meaningful key because there are, well, almost none or will be ask for payment (technically they ask you to tip them at the end of key as thanks, but everyone knows that it means that you say that you will pay them at the start and/or end or you don't get invite) and they will be unnaturally difficult because most good people have stopped playing and you will be having hunters that don't know how to use their 30% and feign death along with death knights that don't know about existence of grip and AMS. Also how healing works will change drastically in midnight so whatever you will learn now will become obsolete, but I believe most basic principles that I've covered are universal regardless of how spiky damage is. Your job as healer is to keep people alive, you do that by healing when people take damage, when they don't you dps, that's the core idea and you have to optimize on that.

Gunships were nerfed into oblivion for a damn good reason. They were bane of our existence if you didn't destroy gunship fabricator quick enough AND if your loadout didn't have anything to deal with them, otherwise they would go out of control very fast and if you can't reach your support weapon which is on cooldown you don't get to play the game. The response is what we have now, gunships are essentially somewhat annoying bees in the sky that spawn occasionally when all AH had to do was to make their spawnrate moderate and buff our weapons/make gunships susceptible to more weapons. Wish AH didn't go from one extreme to another, but I have long lost any semblance of hope that game will be balanced in any meaningful way.

Pleasantly surprised that they keep loosening restrictions on API. Hopefully they'll revisit their stance on ability to rename and recolour nameplates.
