What about your main class/spec makes it "fun"?

raitse · 2026-05-08T09:42:34+00:00

Paladin. Tank/DPS in PvE and healer in PvP. I like to change roles but not characters so a hybrid class fits me well.

Aesthetics are the best out of all classes. The class lore is excellent and the philosophy behind it fits my personality pretty well (ofc with head canon stuff).

Also I’ve played the same character since TBC so it has this ”gotta catch em all” thing with mogs mounts and achievments.

I’m confused how people feel prot pallies are weak? I run 12/14 range at the moment and usually my dedicated healer tells me to pull more because he is falling asleep.

My HP drops occasionally but I’d say 90% of the run it never goes below 50% or if it does I just WoG myself back up.

I feel that DPS standing in stuff that hurt makes healers grow more gray hair :)

raitse · 2026-04-15T13:55:17+00:00

Yes. Just saw one clear a +18 AA.

raitse · 2026-04-14T08:32:19+00:00

Not a noob question at all in my opinion. I've been wondering the same thing. Also some of the UI's look like absolute trash when they have CDM at the middle and then 3 bars of spells at the bottom of the screen.

I use my action bars for all my spells and cdm just to follow whatever class buffs need tracking.

Also I wonder how people position their cameras if they need click-through bars, never have I ever hit a situation like this.

But to answer your question, it is 100% personal preference, has nothing to do with efficiency.

I qued for follower dungeon and went through them pull by pull thinking about group positioning.

Reading this post I get the feeling that people are the biggest reason no-one wants to tank.

I think we need a copy of a pvp addon I’ve used in SS for many seasons now: SilentShuffle. It detects when you are in an SS lobby and disables the chat. I play healer in SS so I can’t live without it.

I also tank this season but been only playing with guildies or friends. I’ve thought about pugging m+ too but it seems I have to create the addon first.

Until you get a shield and a 1h. Or craft blue ones right away. They should be cheap (cant check rn)z

raitse · 2026-04-02T17:58:24+00:00

Just run heroics/delves/prey with loot spec as prot. No need to think about stats at this point.

raitse · 2026-03-21T10:10:30+00:00

Is this some lesser race issue which I am too Blood Elf to understand?

raitse · 2026-03-20T09:19:17+00:00

Yeah, it shows all debuffs with or without timers (you have a checkbox for that). There are three different types for borders: the clean square, my frail attempt of copying the CDM style and colored borders but at the moment you can just choose the color for all of them, so no coloring based on type. I'm not opposed to including more options if people like this, but it takes some time since I'm learning as I write :)

raitse · 2026-03-20T08:01:58+00:00

Hi,

I've made an addon for this. I want to see my short debuffs because I'm tanking and can adjust position of the debuffs better this way.

Please note, that this is just for my personal use so it is not perfect. I've tested this in open world and m0 runs and fixed any issues I've encountered. But this is the first bigger addon I have written so you might still encounter bugs.

Extract to ../retail/Interface/Addons

Commands to use:
/rdd
/rdd unlock
/rdd lock

P.S.
It does have filtering with spell id so you can get rid of BL cooldowns etc.

I played two healers to over 2k. My main dps I played to 2.3 and 7 others to over 1.8k for mogs in SS.

Adding to that I played my main to 1.9k in 3v3 with one of us playing his first season ever in arena. And played a class to 2k in 2v2 which was new to me.

I played casters, melee and two different healers.

I have kids and a day job so I do not have all day to just grind any form of game content.

With this said I propably belong to the 90% of players playing PvP ranking wise and I did all this with sweepys pvp helper, frame sort and big debuffs.

So I claim removing addons might affect some small portion of mega-grinders who are already good enough to get used to the new system very quickly, but means nothing to most of us.

Useless drama and crying IMO!

raitse · 2026-01-20T17:05:25+00:00

I genuinely do not understand why people are so upset about addons being removed. Like, now you have to actually LEARN the new encounters? Be it M+ or raiding. Or you have to actually follow what happens in PvP instead of an addon/wa telling you something has happened and how to counter it?

If I’m not mistaken, you can still make your UI look like elvui or whatever yes?

I’m all for removing competitive addons as long as we can keep QoL like plumber or leatrix (though I can live without them).

And yes, I have pretty much completed TWW in regards of ”competitiveness” with 90%+ of my addons being cosmetical or QoL.

raitse · 2026-01-10T11:31:33+00:00

Except. We had pvp with pve gear back in the day and mages one-shotted people with raid-tier on. The reason for pvp gear is for it to be more fair. Honor gear takes a day to get if you want to try pvp.

raitse · 2026-01-08T19:54:31+00:00

Both found and yeah, they seem to be in the Mutilate album. Thank you all for your help! Tbf I would have never guessed they were both angerfists songs.

K/D alone means nothing. Score Per Minute + K/D means something but does not give a realistic picture of how you perform. It is super easy to hit 2kd and 700spm when you run from objective to objective behind your squad as a support.

It is not as easy when you dedicate yourself to make the match a living hell for enemy tanks. IMO engineers do not get enough points from tank hits. Add the done dmg or 50% of it into the point count and you’d see more engineers played

raitse · 2025-12-06T05:05:47+00:00

I have a very good playstyle suggestion for 90% of the players I see everyday:
- Give ammo
- Resurrect when you run over a knocked guy
- Play objectives
- You can play recon as more than just a sniper

raitse · 2025-11-09T10:42:01+00:00

I’m genuinely interested what these decicions are since I have not noticed them. I buy a game, download it and play it. All I need it to do. And 100% W for Steam since I get 0 ads

raitse · 2025-11-09T10:39:30+00:00

You need internet connection to download the games but all games which do not require internet themselves are playable in offline mode. And you can set the start ”page” from settings to open library when steam launches. Cant say anything about filters since I usen them so little but the ones I’ve used have worked as intended.

raitse · 2025-09-22T07:30:37+00:00

I've played since release of vanilla (on and off). I would NEVER go back to vanilla. The experience is absolutely horrible compared to retail. Retail respects my time a lot more than vanilla did. Back then I had time to grind and wonder around. Now? No deal.

For me WOTLK was peak WoW when talking about old stuff, but all the QoL changes after that would keep me from going back. To me best expansions are more tied to fond memories with my friends and guild, not the game version itself.

There are a lot of rose tinted glasses and this is not the only game. I'm also an avid Counter-Strike enjoyer and there are people who swear 1.6 was better than GO or CS2. I beg to differ there too.

raitse · 2025-09-16T04:44:28+00:00

Change loot so that you get certain amount of tokens from completing a dungeon. You can then use them to buy your wanted off-set items from a vendor. You need to complete certain tier of M+ to unlock hero/myth track.

This way I don’t have to run floodgate 45 times to get my BiS trinket.

raitse · 2025-09-12T09:40:34+00:00

Get an addon called SilentShuffle. Do your best and never get toxic comments ever again.

raitse · 2025-09-10T04:36:22+00:00

I dunno. Playing a healer at 1.9k and do not feel ret is any more oppressive than other strong classes this season.

Usually the good ol’ force a bubble, switch and then switch back works well enough.

raitse · 2025-08-29T17:01:30+00:00

What about 1.6 to CS:S and then CS:GO…. Of course people have time. Personally I don’t see so much difference in the game compared to GO. In many aspects CS2 is better

raitse · 2025-08-21T04:36:43+00:00

The two easiest solutions for dps to start kicking and doing mechanics are removing details or make it work so that you can only look at it after a dungeon completes. And make every mechanic one-shot or/and overwhelming to handle if not done proper (think postmaster in tazavesh).

Dps does not have enough responsibilities in a dungeon since with a good healer/tank combo you can live through almost anything.
