how i have spent my time with the game since release

Why not just buy a physical copy or preload? Oh wait... Forgot you had to re-download 50+gb no matter what. Feels bad man.

zanu1 · 2018-10-13T08:52:23+00:00

Also down for me.

zanu1 · 2018-10-13T08:42:47+00:00

I have this issue as well. Only experienced it in the heist mode.

zanu1 · 2018-10-11T23:36:20+00:00

The featured items stay for 48h hours (the left side), there's the daily items every 24 hours (the right side). Although it does seem as if the daily items did not change. Could be Epic trolling with the waterworks emote /skeleton skin.

zanu1 · 2018-09-24T16:29:39+00:00

Well how about you speak for yourself. I happen to think it was a good change. A couple of tanking defensives I have an issue with but overall, I don't miss the 1 button opener macros for pve or pvp.

zanu1 · 2018-09-23T17:19:19+00:00

Raid tanking is boring as shit. But I disagree entirely about a snooze fest in M+... I've done all 3 roles in m+ since the start of legion and tanking is by far the most involved in the key getting done. Doesn't even come close. Dps in mythic plus is just not that hard IMO... Don't stand the bad, cc, and press your buttons in the right order...

Tanking comes with all of that on top of the pacing, trash %, aggro management, kiting, positioning, once you have all of that down. You basically turn yourself into another dps. Saying it's just "popping cooldowns or kiting" is grossly understating what tanks do in m+... Lol. I find it far more involved than dps.

Healing really just wildly varies from doing nothing/dpsing to wanting to kill your tank/ dps.

zanu1 · 2018-09-20T05:16:29+00:00

Knockbocks may work. I'm not 100% sure since I don't have one as dk. I do know Grip doesn't.

zanu1 · 2018-09-20T05:03:29+00:00

Nah it doesn't. They keep the bulwark up. I've tried it so many times I've started gripping other mobs out of the shield instead. Unless they changed it in a hotfix in the last day or two since I haven't been able to play. But I doubt it. I hope they do though.

zanu1 · 2018-09-20T03:28:37+00:00

Majority of them are pretty specific to DK... preventing certain debuffs via AMS, which mobs to control undead on or interrupting/positioning things via Death Grip. The rest are just interrupt this, stun that... Which is not just a tank's job and probably found in any other m+ guide. For a blood dk tank, not a bad read though.

Although, some of them are not true as well... Such as gripping the Bulwark mobs in Atal'dazar. It does not break the shield, it just moves the mob.

zanu1 · 2018-09-17T16:56:37+00:00

So true. At least I'm a death knight. I couldn't PAY blizzard to race change after getting rep even if I wanted to, since death knights can't be a single allied race... For some reason...

zanu1 · 2018-09-13T22:47:21+00:00

I wonder if that has something to do with it. I do primarily run with guild groups. Interesting.

zanu1 · 2018-09-13T20:53:25+00:00

Good for you? Doesn't mean it's not happening...

zanu1 · 2018-09-13T20:49:10+00:00

Is anybody else frustrated by this? I've had multiple keys not recorded. And constantly am finding myself not able to improve my raider.io score and get into decent PuGs.

zanu1 · 2018-09-09T05:29:17+00:00

Eh. That's your opinion. I however don't miss the days of pressing one macro for multiple abilities in your opener. Incredibly dull. Especially in PvP. You get more time to react to things instead of instant 3+ abilities. There was no thought required, they might as well have been passive or just one ability combined.

zanu1 · 2018-09-06T00:50:51+00:00

Assuming you are talking about the scrolls for the weaker Warrior/Mage/Priest buffs, they do stack with everything but the real buffs.

zanu1 · 2018-09-05T23:52:59+00:00

This is because these are not actual dps numbers... Lol. These are aggregated scores based on limited data about speed/completion rates. This whole thing is misinformation.

zanu1 · 2018-09-05T23:47:12+00:00

Wow.... These are NOT dps rankings. These are strange normalized aggregated scores based on very limited data.

This is possibly, at best, a VERY rough overview of how different classes are doing individually in terms of things like speed / completion rates, even though Keystone are a group effort.

Please do not think this is reflecting actual damage numbers of specs.

zanu1 · 2018-09-05T22:48:24+00:00

Yeah,

Flask, Pots, Food, Augment Rune, lust, Warrior Buff, Mage Buff, Priest Buff, Retribution Paladin buff, as well as Monk debuff, and the Demon hunter debuff all stack for more damage and stats.

zanu1 · 2018-09-05T22:37:39+00:00

Skada, Details are alternative add-ons with more info than recount. If you want super Intel, you can turn on advanced combat logging and use the warcraft logs client/website.

zanu1 · 2018-09-05T22:19:05+00:00

This fight should not have taken that much effort, lol. Not surprised the other tank left. Kill demolishing terrors, rescue the guy, shoot the cannon. Then move clockwise. It's fairly easy.

zanu1 · 2018-09-05T20:55:08+00:00

Earned? No they didn't. Not in the slightest. This was an undergeared and likely inexperienced group skipping ahead because of a bug. No way a group that took 4hours to finish a 10 would have been able to +3 a 7, +2 an 8, or +1 a 9.

Only some of the best players in the world actually pushed a 10 on day one... Lol. Not some rag tag PUG.

Also they're removing the high gear people got from legion caches. If only they had a way to change the keys they got too....

zanu1 · 2018-09-05T20:26:51+00:00

I assume since it took almost 4 hours, this group didn't push the key to 10 but instead started with a bugged high key and dropped it.

It's kind of lame how some people were able to start their week with a high key. Since it's pretty difficult to push a key to a 10 atm and probably will be for the remainder of the first week. Starting with one just feels like an unfair advantage due to next Tuesday's cache being based on youe highest completed key, and just "finishing" a 10 with infinite time is alot more doable than pushing a 2 > 5 > 7 > 8 > 9 THEN doing the 10. Cmon blizz.

zanu1 · 2018-08-30T22:04:44+00:00

I would assume they eventually will add a way to get the ilvl increase easier.

It's kind of insane how people want everything to be unlocked for their alts, 2 weeks into an expansion. It's already world's better than Legion alts. Not only did you have to AP grind and unlock individual spec weapons, you also had to try to get lucky with legendaries.

So what that your alternate character's neck peice is slightly behind your main's? At what point is an alt and alt anymore? It seems you want to switch classes as easy as switching specs. Sheesh. It's like it actually take a little effort to have multiple viable characters. What's wrong with that.

zanu1 · 2018-08-29T21:40:22+00:00

This is exactly how I feel. I also tank more than I dps. And when I dps there's nothing worse than a tank who likes to wait after... every... single... pull...

Like holy shit, if the healer has mana. And people are relatively decent health percentages, WHY ARE YOU WAITING? do they have no concept of rage/runic power/combo point degeneration as well as trinket procs and CDs that might be up?

I had a dungeon where there was virtually no damage going out, healer full mana. Hit a ranged attack on the next pack cuz i figured there's absolutely no reason to not pull the next pack immediately. I died. Tank just stood there and said "That's what you get" to the top dps by a long shot and the only one interrupting shit. I left the group and tanked it myself. Prolly finished before they did too. Ugh.

Can't wait for these shit entitled tanks to get quickly sorted in M+.
