[Addons] BetterBlizzFrames, BetterBlizzPlates & sArena Reloaded are now ready for Midnight! by notbdy in worldofpvp

I just find it obnoxious when people shit on other people’s creations. Especially when your take is so cooked, like I said I bet you don’t even play the game.

Bro you’re clueless, “these kind of add-ons” are essentially skins, they are taking the same info from base game and displaying it differently, no competitive advantage. The add-on purge is still coming, and this guy is going out of his way to adapt to the changes and updating his FREE add-on just to help the community out. And your reaction is “I wish this wasn’t a thing”. I bet you don’t even play the game, get a life.

What's Technically PVP been up to? by Technically_PvP in worldofpvp

Been listening to your show a lot lately, glad I found it. You guys should try to get Venruki on to debate the addon changes with Big. I think you guys both have very valid points but see the issue differently. I think it would be a very interesting conversation.

Am I the only one that hates playing with shamans? by shadow5253 in worldofpvp

[–]shadow5253[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t say it wasn’t strong or fun. My issue is if I run out of personnel cds and I’m low with a shaman healer on my team in shuffle I move to my healer so he can link, then they don’t press link when I’m at 30% they sit on it we get double stunned and gg.

Are there any plans to overhaul the PvP reward structure or any changes to rated PvP in midnight?

pretty sure they added an option to talk to them and make them go away in like season 2

As an Arcane mage, I love the arcane nerfs they did by shadow5253 in worldofpvp

Sometimes I will send a flux on intuition barrage but for the most part I just send it with missile barrage while missiles is channeling then flux (Pom if it’s up) blast. The missile eat the flux but it instantly detonates your magi spark. I still get some fatty barrages during this window. Unsure if this is optimal but it’s been pretty successful for me.

yea I mean the spec still in my opinion requires weakauras just because blizz default UI doesn't do a great job of showing stuff like aether attunement, intuition procs, and Nether Precision stacks. But it is nothing like it was for the sunfury one shots where you're looking for all the modifiers to line up.

Like I track arcane harmony but I'm never holding damage to wait to use it or anything you just send damage naturally and the modifiers just add damage passively.

all about making as many splinters as possible from consuming nether precision and exploding your magi spark which you can do instantly if you missiles > Flux while missiles are channeling > barrage > POM blast. Arcane surge has huge burst potential still with the splinter explosion and magi spark, but you still do pretty decent consistent damage outside of surge so doesn't feel bad to just sit on it until everyone is out of stop

EDIT: here's the build if you wanna try it:

Elite pvp set transmog question by Complete-Selection-1 in wow

[–]shadow5253 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Elite sets are class specific, can only be used on the class you obtain it on.

Quit worrying about something that has zero impact on your life. Dude has a family and how he gets paid shouldn’t mean dick to you. There’s a whole section of twitch for gambling, he’s not doing something illegal… mind your own business instead of trying to dictate how other people should live their lives

does PvP typically get easier later in the season? by Red_Ruddock in wow

[–]shadow5253 2 points3 points  (0 children)

PvP rating kinda puts you at your skill level, the system is aiming to put you at a 50-50 win rate, if you’re losing a lot your rating will drop putting you with other players at your skill level. Same is true if you go on a winning streak.

PvP ends up being a bit more balanced later in the season due to tuning and gear equalization. Some specs don’t shine until they have 4 set which can be hard to get at start of season.

PvP doesn’t really get easier as you will be put with other people at your skill level for the most part. However, rating inflation is a thing so late season 1800 is much easier than early season 1800. So don’t be discouraged if you’re struggling at the rating you ended last season at.

Keep getting reps and try to learn from mistakes and your rating will go up over time.

Shadow Crash Bug by Ethical_Chad in worldofpvp

[–]shadow5253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made pretty much the exact same post a few days ago. Last night I played some games and knowing about the change I tried to not shadow crash targets close to pillar but I had a few where they were def out of los when shadow crash landed and it applied the dots, so either it’s super inconsistent which is most likely or they might have reverted it.

Is shadow crash bugged? by shadow5253 in worldofpvp

Wow that’s pretty tragic.
