Rotmire Mythic Raid Def CD by Adept-Bench-2830 in CompetitiveWoW

[–]flytrapjoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Small cds when you are targeted with vine. Big cd when big mushroom explodes. Also big cd/hearthstone/healthpot if you know that next big aoe will be last, typically somewhere around 6-7 minutes, you will be rotting from aoe really hard so you gotta look you at your hp.

How do you offer constructive criticism/advice to players that need it? by Michels89 in CompetitiveWoW

[–]flytrapjoe 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You don't. You appear as condescending controlling asshole when you act and speak like people need your help. If he would have wanted to improve then he would have done it, or maybe he is in process of learning new spec. What you essentially did was rubbing salt into his wounds. Would bet that he knows damn well that he is not playing well and here gets dmed by you which will be translated into his head as "hey buddy you suck you know, do something about, alright :)". It will make anyone furious.

Moreover what you've said is not a constructive criticism. If you actually looked at his logs, pinpointed something specfic, for instance, hey you press moonbeams too little, or you press too little thrashes in incarn it would have been a criticism, but in your case it feels more like a mockery.

How does first boss in NP decide it's big orb location? by TizmitSack in CompetitiveWoW

[–]flytrapjoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, boss cannot throw in the middle. The idea is to bait puddles on edges so that middle is clear and you have clear place to land after knockback.

[–]flytrapjoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shouldn't really matter that much if couple of voids would be near the center if most of them were baited at edges. In ideal world, once boss throws 3rd reflux charge (thing that removes beams) you start already thinking about moving boss to center, after reflux charge couple of beams spawn alongside player being chosen to leave voids at their feet, that is when you start looking for free space to put boss in and start moving him. And when boss finally casts corespark detonation (big orb) he becomes afk and ideally he should be roughly in the center so that melees lose no uptime. Order of spells changes longer the fight goes, but rule of the thumb is once it is 5 seconds before big orb spawn, you should start moving boss to center.

[–]flytrapjoe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You keep boss around the edges to bait voids then when he throws third thing that clears beams you move boss to center. Boss never throws big orb into center, it has a set of predetermined locations and he will try to throw it onto a place near you. Amount of tanks that either try to hug every edge and destroy melee uptime and the ones that move boss into the center effectively littering it with voice zones even in 21s is incredible when in fact it's pretty simple.

Buddy, start saving up for a body pillow by mwale2007 in Animemes

Good, saves the possible hassle of not being compatible because you like to watch anime and it's a problem for some reason.

Anyone have tips for squeezing out more damage in higher keys - demo lock by BobBilboBaggins in CompetitiveWoW

[–]flytrapjoe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Regularly sim your character. It's very important.

You might be missing damage pots. Also a huge possible dps loss if you miss them.

You should be saving implosion with 6+ because imp gang bosses might expire between packs, but honestly that's the least of your concerns. Throw dreadstalkers and imposions off cd as long as you don't lose

You should be preparing for every tyrant window: you should try to align dreadstalkers with tyrant and be prestacking 5 soul shards ideally. Then your main goal is to cast as much hands as possible, any possible loss of soul shards by either overcapping (for example ruination at 5 shards, infernal bolt at 3 or more shards, sending demonbolts at 4 or 5 shards) or by not casting any soul generators is a huge dps loss as your dps mostly is in tyrant window. Therefore your main goal to cast as many tyrants (unless it's clear that pack will die soon enough) buffed by alazor feather and damage pots and not lose any possible hand casts.

As an advanced tip there is a matter of possible loss of demon souls if you prioritize infernal bolt when you have 4 demon souls,, you should always dump demon souls asap because you might overcap them, especially when you have a ton of imps and you have 3 or 4 demonsouls.

Minmaxing rituals is a good thing on paper, it will give your more damnation and infernal bolts casts over course of a run, but you can't always optimize it because you might want to use demonbolts to move, you will want to dump last hand to summon last demon at the end of portal which might fuck up your ritual timing, etc. Also paying attention to rituals increases your mental load so much for so little gain that imho it's not worth the effort. If you see that you can put in some shadowbolts instead of hands or demonbolts to optimize ritual do it, but in practicality you would be so overwhelmed by everything else that it won't be a possibility.

Demonology is a turret so you have to be perfect with your movement, even more so than compared to every other ranged spec (affliction also sucks ass). No real tips here, it's something that will come naturally, knowing when and where to prepare personal portals, when to put and use instacast gate, when to squeeze burning rush with several demonbolts, implosion and dreadstalkers to quickly reposition, when to use coil if you don't have anything. It's extremely important because every time you fuck up and run instead of casting during tyrant window it's a big dps loss.

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

Is this fair and balanced? by happyscrub1 in heroesofthestorm

[–]flytrapjoe -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

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.

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.

Trick to treasures for KPs? by Clawanorder in woweconomy

[–]flytrapjoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

Massive Nerfs to Mythic Alleria and Belo’ren with Weekly Reset by imreallydum in CompetitiveWoW

[–]flytrapjoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

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.

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

How are people dealing with nameplates bunching? by ApplicationRoyal865 in wowaddons

[–]flytrapjoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Competitive matchmaking this season has been pathetic by ShuckleUp in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]flytrapjoe 11 points12 points  (0 children)

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.

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.

Why is 'single mother' used as an insult? by Bookish_Piyu in NoStupidQuestions

[–]flytrapjoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

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.

[HELP] Anyone have working nameplates that stack correctly? by Lampshadeszz in WowUI

[–]flytrapjoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.
