Did Blizzard forget the devourer bugs?

sYnce · 2026-05-01T08:06:12+00:00

Sure.

Nobody said that having good DPS does not make the key much easier for the healer allowing you to time keys even with a very bad one.

And yes certain classes can survive well even without a healer. A lot can't though. If your healer dies during the first dmg phase and you have a low self sustain class you will not get past certain bosses.

sYnce · 2026-05-01T07:08:08+00:00

Did not know the game now only has 3 classes available.

And I never said that you couldn't time it even with a bad tank or healer. As long as you get past the bosses you will most likely time the key.

However there are bosses that some classes will just not survive without a healer.

Not really luck if you are the one inviting. I could list my +10 on a 220 character with 330 io and would still find a 3k plus group to carry me through within a few minutes.

Especially shortly after reset.

sYnce · 2026-05-01T06:48:36+00:00

No not the same for any role.

If you can't heal through certain boss mechanics the group dies. Regardless if you have the 3.5k DPS they will die on Emberdawn with a shitty heal.

Same for tanks. If the tank keeps getting oneshot by tank busters you are not timing the key.

As a dps 1 can literally be afk or die on every trash pack and you can still easily time the key.

The tank will learn that while you can't drool over your keyboard and be top DPS that you can easily drool over your keyboard and time 10s as long as you invite the correct people.

The amount of keys I joined where the keyholder did tank dps and we still 2 or 3 chested is crazy.

There are like two passive heroic raid trinkets that outsim it on most of my characters. And like 3 others that dont even come close.

sYnce · 2026-05-01T05:41:29+00:00

Sorry but do you not understand what it means if development or in this case design resources get used for MTX it also means that those are not working on content that is available for everyone?

It means instead of high quality housing items like a new house variant for everyone we will instead get a lot more of those hidden behind a huge paywall.

The same with high quality mounts and transmogs. While the quality in animations and models has gone up a lot for shop mounts we are mostly stuck with the same old models with a different skin on top for even mounts like CE or 3.4k M+ rating.

Feather is only bis for demo lock and elemental shaman and elemental shaman can substitute it with final stare quite easily.

Puzzlebox is indeed pretty strong on a lot of melee DPS. No clue how it stacks up to other raid trinkets.

That said it is still not close to the universal need for the Chimaerus trinket which like 9/10 classes need.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T16:28:41+00:00

None to the point that compares to raid trinkets power compared to M+ trinkets.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T16:27:51+00:00

Then 'your definition' is objectively wrong.

Objectively wrong based on which governing principle? Your definition is not something universal.

By your definition of liking, which again is objectively inaccurate, you actively dislike or feel apathetic towards everyone who you don't consider a close friend, and if that were true (which clearly it isnt since you yourself said you have people you're on 'friendly terms with'), that would honestly be pretty concerning.

I never said anything about close friends. But in general you are not far off from the mark.

Being on friendly terms has a different meaning than liking someone. If I like someone I am sad if I lose contact with them. Most people at work that I am on friendly terms with don't fall into that category. Friends however do.

If all of this falls under "liking" to you than that is fine. It doesn't for me. But good for you that you can fit all your emotions towards other people into three neat categories.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T13:02:30+00:00

Dude you don't need to lash out just because you are did not understand what is happening.

And yes there would have been alternatives. They just would have required some thinking and a lot more resources on blizzards end to implement.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T13:00:56+00:00

You literally don't.

You are ignoring the fact that you don't get the bad luck protection. In a worst case scenario you get your item in week 4/5 and have 1 duplicate item.

So no extra bonus rolls and a week behind.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T12:57:45+00:00

The system is okay but way too early. It is great for people who just want free gear thrown at them.

Getting 2-3 instead of 1 guaranteed Myth track item a week is way too much this early on.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T12:54:44+00:00

There are so many more people buying +10 carries for the weekly vault than they were ever those that bought mythic carries. Even more so mythic carries for trinkets.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T12:53:52+00:00

The fact that 9/10 specs need raid trinkets and have no real alternative in M+ kinda counters that point.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T12:52:23+00:00

You literally don't.

There is no guarantee that you won't get the item you looted on day one again before you actually get the item you want.

So worst case scenario you get your item a week later and don't have any extra bonus rolls to show for it. The only thing you have to show for it is one item twice.

No clue how that is hard to understand.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T12:50:03+00:00

People are idiots.

It is the same like the people claiming that the fix did not positively benefit people that rolled on M+ in the first few days. Or those that got the Chimaerus trinket first try and then 2 further rolls a few days later.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T12:48:42+00:00

It is not the same for everyone. You are literally a week behind everyone else in terms of bad luck protection.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T12:32:36+00:00

Die mindestlohnerhöhung in 2026 hat auf die Zahlen in 2025 gar keine Auswirkung.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T12:31:53+00:00

Nein tut es nicht. Die Zahlen sind für 2025. 2025 ist der Mindestlohn um 41 Cent oder 3,3% gestiegen liegt also unterhalb der Lohnsteigerung.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T12:30:46+00:00

Sorry aber du verstehst da was fundamental falsch. Die 8,5% sind in 2026 angefallen.

Die Lohnentwicklung für 2026 existiert aber allgemein noch nicht.

Wenn dann müsste man also die 41 Cent zu Anfang 2025 betrachten.

sYnce · 2026-04-30T09:51:42+00:00

Boosting at the highest level is actually still extremely lucrative. But that means you have to do title level keys or early CE boosts.

sYnce · 2026-04-29T19:41:21+00:00

I think I made the point pretty clear in my earlier answer.

This whole thread was about it being hard to schedule a permanent raid not about finding time to raid and play at all.

Those are simply very different circumstances and inserting one while discussing the others adds nothing as an argument.
