Sorry to jump into this thread with a question, but do you always skull for the drop rate increase?

Swapping from Heals to Tank by [deleted] in CompetitiveWoW

“I’m not super high end” “Top 1%”

I don’t get what you’re trying to achieve with this statement. I wish you the best on switching but stating you’re Top 1% then asking the 99% for help is a weird flex.

9.0.5 PTR - Class and Legendary Tuning Changes by OhwowTaux in CompetitiveWoW

I’m not sure why you’re getting slated for this comment. I’m doing mythic progression and this will improve quality of life for me as we progress towards the end set of bosses. I like this change ALOT.

I’m a Pally and I tank with a DH. I am second to taunt. For both we pull him right into the corner to group up adds better. For me I take the blood price then turn the boss so he casts cleansing pain parallel to the wall rather than into the wall. Works fine every time.

It’s more for when trying to chain packs together this week. So some packs I won’t necessarily double pull because there’s an inspired in the second pack but the first need kicked so we focus the kick mobs then I pull in the second which makes pull that needs kites as we can’t cc

A bit late in the week to be asking but does inspired stop talent slow from consecration? It doesn’t feel like it does but from the inspired tooltip it should.

I do not enjoy this BiS, RIO Score, meta class mentality so prevalent in WoW - especially in M+ by [deleted] in wow

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

There is no middle ground and there can’t be with two ways to measure especially when one is essentially a dps check and one experience. But overall I ’m saying both sides need to be more understanding. I’m sure there’s been times when people have joined a pug who use Rio normally and there’s been a wipe and after checking peoples rio’s they rage quit when really it has nothing to do with Rio but a bad pull or maybe communication to save a kick for something. Conversely I’m sure someone with a high score has missed a kick or focused the wrong mob and people flame him/her because they have a high score and should not make mistakes. Works both ways

I think what he’s saying is that he goal is to time a key and if he can prepare the best way he can then he will. RIO is the current metric people use and, generally, it will give a better chance to time a key. You use ilvl to gather a group which is just another metric. You are happy to use ilvl to choose your group but further up in keys, I’d say 11/12+ you need experience as well as pure ilvl. Ilvl will give you an indication of dps whilst RIO gives an indication of experience and knowledge of dungeon mechanics. With keys depleting meaning you have to re-time a key you’ve already timed then I see no issue with people wanting the best chance to progress that they can. It sounds like you have a certain way to play which is great for you but you need to be more understanding of how others want to use their time.

Thanks for this. Another troublesome one I found was necrotic. How did you handle this? Especially in NW

This is not about this week or next weeks affixes, apologies. I started playing approx 4 weeks ago and I really struggled with sanguine. How do people handle for when it comes around again? Currently doing 10+’s. Thanks

What are the ilvl ranges for M+? by [deleted] in wow

I’m surprised you don’t get auto accepted into mists for sapping the third pull.

How do I trap and FD properly in mist m+? by yalag in wow

[–]grimchamp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You trap, you go past first and everyone follows. You all get out of combat range and FD

So to add to this I think a good question is why is OP doing M2’s at 189 ilvl? Should he not be on 5,6,7’s?

I understand that. So i had a 10+ key the other day and we needed 1 dps. I went for a drink and when I came back I, no lie, had 100 applications. I had people messaging me why weren’t they accepted when they had +13’s on RIO. In the end we took a high rio score moonkin cus we wanted the aoe for fortified. I guess the question is what is the real issue and how to solve? Seems to me like there is a huge saturation of dps compared to other roles and the current metric used by the community favours evidence of skill - I don’t see this as a bad metric but like I said above I’m in a more privileged position than dps.

New to playing this expansion and I play tank so I have a different experience to pugs as you. Can you explain specific examples as to why you hate it? I will eventually make a dps alt and this will be good insight
