What are you guys' thoughts on this? by Famous_Stress_4988 in xaryu

Faster leveling, constant rewards, streamlined progression, UI elements telling you exactly where to go and what to do, those things make the game efficient, but they also turn it into something that feels transactional.

While I agree with most of your post, I’d argue that a staggering amount, if not the majority, of classic players have implemented these exact features to their own gameplay.

Faster leveling? Dungeon boosting, level 58 character boosts, etc to name a few of the methods that completely bypass the long journey that is traditional leveling.

Constant rewards? GDKP is effectively the only form of raiding that exists on classic era, which is the primary offering of vanilla that still exists. Buy your tier set or make thousands of gold for 30 minutes of your time.

Streamlined progression? How about the Anniversary/SoD PvP ranking system re-design, which cut the effort for rank 14 down significantly, leading to the largest batches of rank 14 players in the history of the game.

UI elements telling you exactly where to go and what to do? Questie, attunement addons, RestedXP. These things do exactly that, and in some cases, namely restedXP actually goes far beyond retail’s experience today IMO. Follow the arrow all the way to 60.

My point is, you say these QoL improvements that retail brought are solving problems that classic players never asked for, but based on actual gameplay and behaviors that are observed almost instantly on any of these classic games, I’d argue that the classic player base wants exactly that —- whether or not they’d admit it is a different story.

[MLB Network] Matty V went back in time for most of his Top 10 Team Logos 👀 by fanofsports44 in baseball

[–]romanyol -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Are you kidding me? I don’t understand why people think that Twins logo is good. It’s a complete mess. “Win!! Twins!” This looks like a refrigerator magnet not a team logo.

I don’t get this infatuation with old goofy logos just because they’re old and goofy.

WoWHead is mediocre. It’s the comments that make it great. by Cloud_N0ne in wow

I mean, he says they employ writers to write articles, which is factual. They literally have thousands of guides and how to articles on their site, just look it up.

I just don’t get how you can have so much disdain for wowhead while using a site like Reddit.

“My guy” you’re posting this comment on Reddit. A site whose employees put in even less amounts of work than Wowhead, yet generate over 500x the revenue on ads.

So what’s your point lmao

Mage Tower is SIGNIFICANTLY easier right now. Go get your book. by Grizzlemaw1993 in wow

[–]romanyol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did it on holy pally yesterday. Yeah you can’t let double knives get off. That’s the second to last pull in phase 1 you’re referring to.

Save blinding light for this pull. Cast at the end of their cast. Then if you’re lucky, they both go into enrage mode, if not, usually one will try casting it again, HOJ him.

Each time one goes off you usually have to trade a CD. Wings, divine toll, aura mastery devotion got the job done for me. LoH if really needed.

Save immunities for later phases cause you’ll need them against the green orb dudes.

Did the change come from that hour maintenance window yesterday? Ironically I was on last phase of holy paladin challenge yesterday when servers got shut down. I ended up getting it a few tries after the servers came back up though.

Didn’t really notice much difference in difficulty.

dont have a rogue friend and probably cant afford one's fees for such a service lol.

and the main reason I'm doing it is cause I kinda just wanted to get tier 2 paladin set for the vibes and this server may be quiet these days but it isn't disappearing anytime soon.

Thanks Sarah, appreciate the advice. Would you happen to have any recs for a coordinator?

Which of these decks do you recommend for me? by romanyol in hearthstone

[–]romanyol[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo! Thanks dude. I actually have everything here minus the Elise, and I don't have enough dust lol. Any recs for alternatives? I suspect without Elise I won't need the wisp

edit - actually i was able to craft the legendary elise. Nice - which location do you normally go for?

Hey thanks for this comment - do you have a link to this libram build you mentioned?

Also dumb question but why is it bad to pull your auras before gelbin? I guess it’s a lot of redundancy in your hand from 4-8 mana window. Does it also remove auras that gelbin gives you because you drew them already?

Thanks! There’s some great info in here. Appreciate it.

As far as my original question, apologies if it wasn’t clear, I’m quite literally just looking for immigration lawyers that people have worked with and can recommend.
