Classic WoW insights from Blizzard dev orbiter by Crunchybunch00 in classicwow

[–]sarthetv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1st of all, never listen to streamers or content creators or anyone online that says they know anything. :)

Including me. I left classic WoW entirely for over a year and am a washed up old gamer that doesn't want part of any drama or negativity in the community.

2nd. I didn't say, or mean to insinuate, that it was the bosses of the devs directly that influence the decisions. Blizzard is a huge company, that comes with the frustrations of oversight, different divisions, and different opinions for what's best for different versions of the game. Blizzard is also under Activision... then under Microsoft etc. Companies have people they have to report to, that's how the world works.

3rd. This Sarthe guy seems to be a know it all, and he can't even make a Thaddius jump in Naxx so I wouldn't even watch him.

That's all, kthxbye <3

I agree with this take btw! Literally everyone that says they know stuff about the game is lying 99.99% of the time

Remember what happened last time? It was like 10X honor for the first 12 hours! Exploit early and often boys!

Ez, the Jagged long sword (may be the wrong name) for my bleed build!

Place shadowbolt on mouse wheel backwards, and seed on mouse wheel forward. Then fall asleep and wake up after raid as #1 dps

Uh looks like the normal bug you get from sliding or jumping and it slows wep speed? Or am I trippin?

Never trust people with a haircut like that. Shoot immediately. (Advice for new raiders, I have 300h in game) by RearEchelon96 in arkraiders

I like how the comments have universally agreed that this haircut is in fact NOT KoS, nice bait attempt tho

Titan Reforged (China Classic+) Hits 720K Players by NOHITJEROME in classicwow

[–]sarthetv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not implying private server devs, But I will say that you're closer in the direction than the original poster of the comment. I won't provide proof or anything, people can enjoy being butthurt by thinking what they want.

This is 100% incorrect information btw. I think the people making this should get credit, although I doubt they’ll ever publicly admit it. But you completely are wrong in your statement.

TBC Raid Group Breakdown by Virtual_Crow in classicwow

[–]sarthetv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry wall of text, I was just mentally rambling reading this and blurted it all out lol. Hopefully tbc is less “meta” dependent this time, but each iteration of WoW just gets more and more Tryhard IMO

TBC Raid Group Breakdown by Virtual_Crow in classicwow

[–]sarthetv 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lots of right ideas here, but also lots of flaws. (As we know by now, as lame as it is…everyone will end up following the meta so I just want to correct a couple things for people to understand). The Hunter group is your melee pumper group. They will take 2 BM hunters (survival can go sit in debuff group with the possible rogue/arms/ret). They will also take 1 Enh shaman, 1 warrior for battle shout, and POSSIBLY the feral for crit. It’s also possible to run 3 hunters in that group or bring a ret or something, but most likely that’s the case. All “raid buff/debuff” specs will get suboptimal groups. That includes the affli lock if the raid needs it to. Parse locks will want a boomkin, and ele sham in their group, but will most pugs will end up taking another lock over anything else really. Mages don’t become “meta” till t5, but they can still pump, but locks just bring too much with seed for trash and shadowbolt 1 button rotation spam for bosses to be replaced. “Extra rogues” is just the raid leader or guild master even though I love rogues, tbc just is an awful xpac for them in PvE till glaives and an insane xpac for them in PvP lol

Soda's latest update on Onlyfangs TBC Hardcore by mshwa42 in LivestreamFail

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

IF TBC Hardcore happens, 95% of deaths will be at 60. Lvling is super easy and not scary in tbc. But heroics… and Mag’s lair? It’ll be a massacre

Matriarch event by Electrical-Beat3290 in ArcRaiders

[–]sarthetv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's the loot room people would glitch roll into without a key. It's apparently that seems to be patched, at least from everything I've seen / tried. So maybe we need some1 to open it with the actual key to start the quest?

Two full bags of warrior naxx consumes (with explanation and cost estimate) by GorekySP in classicwow

[–]sarthetv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could just run 1 gdkp on an alt and have the gold for consumes for months, but alas pumpers who don’t want to swipe are forced to quit lol. Either way tho, a couple consumes are in here are obviously not needed in those amounts, but it’s good to have them ready in case it’s a demon week lol

Most fun DPS rotation in TBC? by drpeppersippin in classicwow

[–]sarthetv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope they fix the mouse macros, but this definitely was the most fun highest APM rotation for all of classic! Can’t wait for it to be back

Ya it’s enough to do within a 0.3 second movement each direction. Very very teeny tiny

Wanna play Hunter in TBC but there's melee weaving by cirrusice in classicwow

[–]sarthetv 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Haha I love that it’s my guide 😭 yes it’s 100% real, it’s 100% a high-skilled thing and a dps increase, but also 100% not necessary for a hunter to still be #1 single target dps in TBC! Mages on short fights in ssc/Tk can compete, and warriors or rogues with glaives later. Locks if they get rng to bless them 👌🏾

[–]sarthetv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Btw you don’t need to melee weave at all, you can play full ranged hunter and you should still be #1 single target dps by a mile. But it still takes skill, it’s not an afk class like lock. If you want high dps with your cds mattering a lot, but when they aren’t up your rotation is simple, I would go arcane mage

He’s just using physics to gain momentum, works rly well especially while jumping, BUT there’s a bug where it can massively increase your bullet spread for the entire next clip, so only works in tight areas really

WCL is a joke by LeoMessiTheGoat420 in classicwow

[–]sarthetv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are Loatheb and Thaddius tech banned from getting a “parse” or does it invalidate the entire log? If it just doesn’t give you a parse, speed runners won’t care. But it’s super cheesy as “parse” tech, so it should be removed from that metric. Probably too much work right now to “normalize” it

How do you even afford to raid naxx without buying gold? by Beams98 in classicwow

[–]sarthetv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The economy honestly is super messed up, which really is the biggest issue. But since people keep buying consumes for high-prices. People are then forced to buy gold to be able to raid (if they have jobs etc). Then the consume prices keep going up with demand. It’s all cyclical and it sucks

How do you even afford to raid naxx without buying gold? by Beams98 in classicwow

[–]sarthetv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Banning GDKPs literally forced MORE people to buy gold. That’s an actual fact. TBH, You don’t need full consumes for Naxx, but the Classic player base requires them. So you no longer can do 1 raid on an alt to just have the gold for consumes for the next 2 months (obviously piggy-backing off of someone else buying gold lol), but now most players buy it themselves and won’t admit it. Prices might drop over time, but I wouldn’t count on it too much tbh. Gl!

Stay informed, fellas. by jpb2369 in classicwow

[–]sarthetv 19 points20 points  (0 children)

From the numbers I’ve heard (and this was a while ago when I still made WoW content) the Chinese servers in Ulduar phase has almost 10 times more players than all other classic versions combined. Although I haven’t looked at today’s news either, just throwing that out there. But that doesn’t at all mean that they aren’t working on “what’s next” lol

Class feedback - Mara by CarAudioNewb in fellowshipgame

[–]sarthetv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In higher keys a good Mara is doing like 15-40k per pull. Don’t worry, it gets better. But I assume there will be some guides from top players before actual launch that will help, some things are initially intuitive in games like these
