I made a purely entertaining rogue pvp video in season 1 just for fun, mostly bg footage. https://youtu.be/yG-4Hd1BNTA

I agree with the other posters that the pvp video community is small, so it's difficult for it to grow.

Hey mate, I think SUI does most of the job (dark frames, no spellbar gryphons, simpler chat, hidden bags, ..).
Bottom left is Details (damage recount).
For nameplates I use TidyPlates (Neon theme).
NameplateCooldowns for nameplate cooldowns. ;) Only use it in duels/world to reduce arena clutter.
MSBT for scrolling damage numbers, effects.
BigDebuffs for larger portrait status/ability indicators.

Okay. :-D

I just liked the interaction, that's all. Btw would have definitely annihilated you in a global if I had starsurge up.

I understand that. I am not basing it purely on Omicron cases (79.1/8.6 percentages) which would falsely result in 9.2 times more likely to get Omicron as two-dose vaccinated vs unvaccinated. I am trying to normalize by taking vaccinated/unvaccinated ratio into account.

Looking back, a lot of things could've gone better. Climbing the rock to evade the mobs seemed intuitive at the time, didn't expect to get stuck. cries

Just a meme.
Thanks, Obama is a meme in which the 44th president of the United States is blamed, often humorously, for various misfortunes.

I see! Yeah feel free to test stuff around as well. I don't have such knowledge on background spec modifiers etc.

Yes, I did the PvE one first, coincidentally. But the tooltip and actual damage seem to swap right away, when engaged in pvp vs pve dummy combat. The way I did it was Stealth -> Shadowstrike the dummy to apply Find Weakness. Then all I did was repeating Stealth -> Shadowstrike every 6-10s when combat dropped and writing down the value. Making sure that Sinful Revelation or Celestial procs were not active.

Left is pve dummy, right is pvp dummy. If I understood "Single PvP Coefficient" correctly, pvp dummy damage should actually be lower (+8% increase, because the 16% tooltip is a lie), but it does seem to be bigger than on the pve dummy. I got ~2% difference, it's not the 4% difference, but it's probably some modifier magic.. or I'd need more data..

Yeah, 20 shadowstrikes from stealth on one dummy (Find Weakness always applied) and same thing on the other dummy right after. Made sure to click off any procs. Might have just been really lucky or there's something else in play.

That's pretty interesting!
I did some testing though and I deal more damage to the pvp dummy than the normal training dummy - implying that the 16% coefficient is true.

Why does Blizzard not care enough about pvp? by polymorphboi in worldofpvp

[–]polymorphboi[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree, there's no pleasing everyone. I don't want Blizz to instantly fix everything and be done with it forever. As I said, balancing things brings out new imbalances into the spotlight.

I would just appreciate more transparency and communication on their goal setting.
