World of Warcraft General - /wowg/

I was enjoying it because I thought that blizzard would be fixing some of the classes and it would be a temporary period of wonkiness while they worked everything out.

Right now I'm just letting my sub run out because every blue post I see just reinforces that they have no clue what they're doing.

That and the fact they're making sweeping, massive changes (which they promised not to ever do) on an expac that they made as alt-unfriendly as humanly possible.

So fuck them. I think I'm done.

did you spam m+?

I finished my exams a fortnight ago and I've been playing since. Expansion is fun and better than WoD but it's kind of frustrating starting late, you can't help but feel hugely behind compared to those playing since the expac launched because of the big time gates. I just got my second legendary but I can't equip it for another 29 days because of arbitrary time gating bullshit.

it was going fine until they started gutting classes for no reason

>Realize belves actually look kinda cool
>Remember I made an oath to never play them

Thanks...What do you mean by poison build though? I thought bleeds do all the damage...Do i just use deadly as my main poison for it and agonising for bleed build?

Or do you mean mastery+crit is for using Agonising poison and Elaborate planning and crit\vers for hemo+Exsanguinate? This is all the diffirence in builds and i never use Deadly poison when building mastery+crit?

one from heroic hov, one from first boss in violet hold mythic, one from box, one from normal cenarius helping alt run

Patchnotes said to 10 and top comment says he can't use it after getting 10...

they originally said the catchup was to AK 10, and that is all the PTR allows for at the moment. I know on PTR is says up to 15 but unless theyre changing it then it only goes to 10, probably 15 in 7.2 or something.

because I wanted to play the new content for pandaria, and mages are cool.

Is there a reason not to have one?

I know pretty much nothing about this xpac but that sounds absurd. I guess I'd better start soon otherwise people will be even further ahead.

Source on patch notes and if you don't got one I assume it's supposed to be to 15 as the tooltip says

>tfw your grand challengers bounty gives you a hot steaming pile of shit once again.

>Want to swap one of my alliance over to horde to play with my lads since they all re-subbed
>50 dollary-doo's

WHAT THE FUCK BLIZZARD IT'S 2016

I CAN GET A SERVER TRANSFER AND A RACE CHANGE FOR LIKE 15 BONES ON FFXIV

THAT'S AN ENTIRE FUCKING GAME

Burned out trying to beat rng and unsubbed.

you use deadly for aoe situations, and yeah that's what i meant.

They're adding in all that stuff for tokens (aka gold) in 7.2 (or earlier?)

It's still fucking ridiculous.

>did my first m+ over 9 yesterday
>I was the one fucking up the most
>We didn't finish in time so I don't have the achievement

Fuck

I hope it's 7.1.5 I wanna name change but I'm not dropping $11 dollerydoos I could spend on goon instead

I'm having fun on like 4 classes and look forward to 7.1.5 for the AK catch up

Thanks again, i guess im using poison build right now since guides that mentioned bleed build had 400% Exsanguinate...

While we're at it: what should i do on bosses with lots of adds? Switching poison mid battle 2 times seems a lot of hassle but so is doing no damage to adds. Do i just say "im assassin" and ignore big packs (still killing big adds)?

still looking for recommendations on classes to play

Also a cool name

All of the cloth casters have massive issues right now

>3 guilds banned for helya exploit
How pathetic isn't that. It wasn't even for a world first, or 2nd for that matter, it meant fuck all lmao, now they're bent

just be yourself & follow your heart

well its still one of if not the easiest affix combos this week so you still have plenty of time to get it

How so?

Which 'exploit' is this?

Not revealed but it is assumed to be the breath related one.
If a tank died when helya was casting breath, she would stop casting breath for the rest of the fight, so they made the tank die during this period.

fire mage and shadow priest are getting a slight balance tuning, therefore the world is ending for all cloth casters.

Yeah, sanguine is not much of a problem if the tank is not retarded and overflowing is a non-issue

im scared of logging in

i know ill get garbage

Lmao 'slight'.

Fuck off, kid.

t. butthurt fire mage mop babby screamer

wait what, is it sanguin and overflowing this week?

that's easy as fuck

>Fire mages and shadow priests are top of the charts on 100 percentile in ToV
>people think they somehow do not deserve nerfs
??????? If you don't top charts with these classes you fucking suck ass

Bet you thought fire was overpowered too, lol

>Level a rogue
>Boring as fuck and gets nerfed constantly
>Level a DH
>Fun, middle of the pack dps, gets gutted for no reason and enforces the unfun nemesis build
>Level a priest
Gets gutted next patch
wow.... Im having so much fun levelling and gearing all these characters. Thank you blizzard

Good. First you kinda like the way they look and next thing you know you're erping with people from here and posting images of your toon getting fucked by a wolf

What? Where are you getting that fire mage is even in top 10 on ToV?

>Top of the charts
>FIRE

hahahahahha, oh man. Feel free to link it moron.

>that guy who ambushes you in a FFA PvP area and dies without even taking 10% of your health off

Yeah, fire mage is getting changed, but I'll still wait and see before switching spec. Speaking off which, based off what we've seen, will frost or arcane be better for pve in 7.1.5?

got my third leggo (1st on this toon)
not bad granted he's got only 1d /played

warcraftlogs.com/statistics/12#dataset=100&difficulty=4
warcraftlogs.com/statistics/10#dataset=100
people look at their shitty non-top percentile and think fire mages aren't broken, but they fucking are and if you can play they are retarded, same with shadow priests.

>Heroic

i don't think anything, blizzard knows best :^)

>tfw 1 leggo and its sephuz

at least it's getting buffed

play druid
play bear
bear get nerfed?
play bear

You realise that
A) that's heroic
B) that's the bracers being OP, not the class, fuckboy. They're nerfing both the bracers AND the spec.

I'm already at ak17, I really didn't expect to get here so fast. At this rate I'll be at cap before 7.1.5 even comes out. What will there be then? Will they increase the cap? Will 7.2 or 7.3 increase the number of traits in artifacts? Will there be no more progressing my artifact other than relics?

There's too small of a pool on ToV Mythic, if you seriously think it matters you're retarded.

>only got this shitty leggo.
Why am I still playing this game?

at 35 you unlock like another trait that you keep putting points into for some stat or w/e

>resub just to get the HAA for my frost DK because we won't see soultakers for another 11 weeks
>didn't drop

>It doesn't matter that I'm taking the very cream of the top of fire mages, when someone pointed out an extremely rare it is OP for them, rather than the spec

Learn to read, champ.

not any more waiting for nost at this point.

because you're depressed and hate your life?

That only goes up to 20 and its just a flat damage/healing increase.

I fucking hate what they've done with the rogue class in Legion

>lets take poisons away from all but 1 spec

it takes over 60 million ap to max out that trait

I was thinking about feral. How is it doing?

>that guy that fights people in the FFA arenas

>play enh
>fun as fuck in both pve and pvp
>my item drop uncluckyness gets compensated by the fact that enh legendaries suck ass and provide no serious dps boost
>pvp shit gets nerfed to the ground, now enh is just some useless shit that gets globalled by anyone at any time
>pve shit is about to get fucked by the next "tuning" patch
>at the same time, level a hunter
>like the MM style
>about to get fucked aswell
>don't even get me started on the whole artfact """"""catchup"""""" thing

WoD was the first expac ever to make me leave the game.

It was easier than I thought, I might aswell quit again if they keep shitting on my favorite shit.

>Aoe spec with highest mobility of all casters is topping charts everywhere except on an underrepresented difficulty in a side raid
>Yet complains that the nerfs are unjustified somehow
???? You realize what fire mage does right

I gave up on Legion, just riding out the last 10 or so days left on my sub then I'm done with the game.

Legion showed promise, but I was a fool to think that the horrid RNG / legendary system was good or that Blizzard wouldn't start gutting classes months after release.

I wish I did something else with my time and money than play Legion, it's such a clusterfuck.

What's gonna be fotm in 7.1.5? I only play fotm so I need to know what to reroll/gear up

>that guy who enters a FFA PvP in non-tank spec

if it doesn't need to be nerfed, why would blizzard nerf it?

#logic

feral is doing top tier

but it requires a phd in snapshotting to play

do you have 4 AK? if yes you needed to loot the boss and if you didn't it's probably in your mail
if you don't lmao @ ur life see you in 11 weeks good goy

even if we assume that you're right (and you're not), the proposed nerfs would literally kill the spec and that's just not justifiable

It doesn't top the charts other than mages that have the bracers, dumb fuck. Get that through your skull this time.

It also doesn't top shit anywhere else. It is not the top of the charts in ANYTHING. It's single target was trash, unless you had the broken legendary, and now it's even worse, along with its AoE.

Your the trade chat screamer that saw a rop+combust+living bomb pull and served the fuck out, despite fire averaging out to below average across an entire raid or dungeon. Boils my piss that blizz listens to you cretins.

>WW
>no cape, no boots
>both rings
fuck this expansion honestly

ah the epic "it will kill the spec" meme.
It won't, it has been changed to be in line with what it is supposed to do.
Bracers are getting nerfed, which is good, but even then, you can filter the logs to those without bracers, and they still perform really well.

>guldie got his 4th (fourth) legendary
>i still only have one shitty one

>it was an alt
>AK3
>could have had it in 3 days
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

what is snapshotting

You're right.

It's below average to near the bottom without the bracers. Only thing it actually does decently at is big M+ pulls, which isn't something good or functional to specialise in when other classes do well at that AND other shit.

if its not broken, fix it until it is

like always with blizzard

>big M+ pulls
>An aoe spec doing well at what is supposed to do well in
nice.

I see the Blizzard interns are still hard at work

you have to snapshot all your bleeds with buffs before applying them

you have to do that for every single round of bleeds, and if you fuck up your dps will tank

>Reading comprehension

>FFA PvP world quest
>There's a retadin in the arena
Well time to kill myself

Only Rake snapshots btw, Rip doesn't snapshot afaik, and neither does Moonfire.
