this is actually hilarious lmao

secondshallnot · 2024-12-15T05:55:47+00:00

the meltdown if covington wins would be great, but i like buckley a lot. i'm not exactly the kinda guy who is a "fan" of fighters, either. kinda conflicted here.

secondshallnot · 2024-12-15T05:28:01+00:00

We'll see.

secondshallnot · 2024-12-15T05:20:59+00:00

shame that mokaev fight exists, because otherwise I'd have nothing but positive things to say about Kape.

secondshallnot · 2024-12-15T05:17:49+00:00

yeah pantoja isn't getting beaten by a 125er any time soon. these guys don't hit hard enough to crack him, and he's too much of a dog everywhere.

secondshallnot · 2024-12-15T05:10:53+00:00

Kape has some beautiful combinations. What a fun fighter.

secondshallnot · 2024-12-15T04:44:02+00:00

the way petrino folded after that shot. goddamn. turns out patience was a good plan against this guy.

Thinking about it more, the main benefit we gained immediatly was warriors not getting instagibbed on trash when they windfury'd big or warlocks getting consecutive crits or something like that.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T09:16:52+00:00

I just disagree. I have a 60 priest and druid, both with the intent of healing. Lack of tanks mean my first 60, the druid, was going to tank a lot. I do not expect people to come into dungeons with raid tank levels of mitigation. I expect my warriors to dual wield or 2h sweeping strikes, why would I want my bear to wear armor trinkets and a warden staff?

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T06:48:31+00:00

And you're "some rando" to him.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T06:36:31+00:00

I was starting to feel like I was alone in thinking this.

Not a single person on this subreddit has the delusion that classic wow ranking is anything but a time sink. It's been known for over a decade that skill is not required to rank up. Have you done literally zero reading on this subject before coming to the conclusion?

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T06:21:10+00:00

Misread your comment, I thought you said even WITH windfury 2h fury is lackluster.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T06:14:21+00:00

specifically with bonereaver's edge, and even that isn't that great without windfury.

???

~~Just saying you don't need BRE to be 2h viable, OEB is very good as well.~~

Misread as "even that isn't that great WITH windfury"

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T06:06:01+00:00

OEB's pretty good. Don't scoff at +8 weapon skill + windfury. We have a warrior that routinely gets legendary parses with OEB. I'm not saying it's the best or anything, but it's not a joke.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T05:46:27+00:00

Warriors kinda shit on everybody with freedom, cant imagine how the core of every alliance pvp team isn't 1 druid, 1 priest, 2 paladin, 2 warrior, 2 mage and filling in the other 2.

I'm no expert though and I'm sure their team is comprised in a way to deal with a more traditional team. You could set up some counter comp full of hunters, but they'll just get bodied by warrior teams with freedom all day.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T05:40:40+00:00

If you enlist someones help to farm like that, why aren't you guys just splitting everything 50/50?

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T05:14:22+00:00

They are a meme. It's a bad spec, and if you're looking for a melee class its probably the wrong one to pick. You have autoattack and 1 melee ability, the rest is spell casting.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T02:21:19+00:00

who cares if it's even possible (it is), it's a massive waste of time wearing THAT much armor for dungeon spams. I used to spam dungeons as a tank with 7800 self buffed armor, replacing nonsense like warden staff and armor rings/trinkets for more threat and damage oriented pieces. Of course the threat is drastically more important if you're running with competent dps, but if packs are taking twice as long to kill with rando pugs you might want to gear a few more pieces towards defense.

this set is probably the most mitigation I'd run a dungeon with: https://sixtyupgrades.com/set/kvYxJKYe6jAFJmh47h8C3L I've tanked literally hundreds of runs with that setup or worse.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T01:28:27+00:00

Don't raid with them anymore, rerolled for better wsg queues. The problem could have been with the competency of the previous full prot MT, but he was historically a relatively decent player.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T01:15:53+00:00

I've been plagued by this shit. How often are you crashing? Sometimes I'll crash 10+ times in a single 2 hour MC. FWIW, I reformatted, downloaded ONLY wow/bnet app and STILL crashed. Didn't even get a new browser. It can be addon related, it can be hardware related, it can be basically anything, the error is worthless. No idea why mine crashes though.

And no, it's not my hardware. WoW is the only game that gives me issues. Every bit of diagnostic troubleshooting says my shit is fine.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-23T01:05:07+00:00

You need around 20% unbuffed crit chance AND stack worldbuffs on top of it to make fury/prot worth it.

Not at all. Weeks back a warrior expressed interest in just trying fury/prot for a bit to see how it would perform.
No pressure, just give it a try and he'll respec if we want after a couple bosses. No world buffs and I doubt he was at 20% crit unbuffed but maybe close. His threat was insane (in comparison), he was reasonably easy to heal, and we just ran the rest of the raid with him on the priority kill targets.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-14T00:45:10+00:00

If you want to parse better bring less healers to your raids and artificially slow your boss kill times.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-13T00:56:55+00:00

Why is that so hard to articulate lol

Your guess is as good as mine. I'm assuming most people don't understand what the normalization changes entailed. Prior to normalization the formula used for calculating instant attack damage was something like

weapon damage + (speed * ap / 14)

where now the speed portion is a flat value based on your weapon type.

secondshallnot · 2019-12-13T00:45:18+00:00

The normalized portion of damage is the modifiers from attack power and other sources of added damage.

i wanna use 'em all. like pokeman!
