World of Warcraft |OT9| People still play this? Isn't it from 2004
- Thread starter ampere
- Start date
Gave up on that Elemental dream a long, long time ago friend
and with all their utility stripped, really zero reason to bring one anymore.

Oh I play ENH, but I would honestly play ele if it was competitive since I do prefer ranged classes. But with how dominante Melee is in PvP I'm staying away from them this xpac
Well he probably rolled pretty well on his procs there since he did "only" 366k on Ursoc.
Casters do really well in RGBs. Balance is the #1 DPS spec there, and Demo, Affliction, and Shadow all see representation in the top ten most played classes. And it's not like casters do not see representation in arena.

First night of Mythic Il'gynoth tonight.

Most of the top ranks on world of logs for Arms are with those gloves.
Eh, they're okay just like the last were okay and we ended up still being awful. I'd be surprised if we're still not one of the lowest DPS specs in the game in 7.1.
Ya my DPS is lower than when I was Arms, but I just enjoy playing Fury way more which is much more beneficial to me. I am usually middle of the pack when raiding and I'm ok with that... though much higher clearing trash.
99% of the time I use my Ursoc DPS trinket and a Chrono Shard on my DH. Echo seems so good on paper (30% DR every 2 minutes?) but the max it can block is so low.

I thought versatibility is on PVP gear
Woah, legendary get. Of course it's the only class legendary that doesn't increase your DPS, but at least the effect isn't useless (20% hp shield on blink) like on the cross class legs.
Someone said in TS that it was our 7th that night. Now we're going to mass queue for LFR if we get even more.

Second Legendary get, just a few days after the first. And now half my guild are glaring daggers at me.
Another reason they're glaring at me, though, is that I had real trouble with Elerethe Renferal today - every time I got Web of Pain, a second or two later my machine would hang for a good 20-30 seconds or so, which meant I'd have to be lifegripped out of the big lethal circle. Has that been reported at all? On the last go I cut my addons down to just Weakauras, DBM, Grid and Kui plates and it still happened, so that omitted most of what I thought were the likely suspects.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
It's certainly not only on PvP gear.
I main shadow, they are great raid boss dps as long as you can get comfortable with surrendering to madness. Surrender is likely going away or getting nerfed by nighthold I'd imagine though. It can be frustrating being very low dps for the first 70% of a boss fight though, so when your guild is wiping at 50% due to mechanics you're going to appear like a bad dps. Whenever I hear the lead say wipe it up, I pop surrender and just get some practice in plus you can flex those mad deeps. 5 man content shadow is okish. I've done up to +4 and do fine, aoe stun is huge and vampiric embrace is cool utility. I believe shadow does better at higher mythics since the trash loves longer. Really depends on group composition for shadow.
I'm not a big fan of holy. Very immobile and squishy, can heal just fine though. I much prefer the disc play style, much more mobile since on the move you can spread atonement and penance. Prepping for aoe dmg with atonement on everyone then using lights wrath and penance is so satisfying. Also disc and shadow stats are similar, whereas holy needs mastery.
Also the priest campaign blows hard lol.
My system recently got the Windows 10 Anniversary update, and now windowed fullscreen in WoW is all fucked up. I lost the "free" v-sync I used to get with borderless and get screen tearing unless I turn on v-sync in game, and the game will randomly lock itself to 40 or 30 fps and I have to apply new video settings for it to flip back to 60. Anyone else have stuff like this, or know if this is a WoW thing or a Win10 update thing?
Bah curse my inability to make decisions. Wanting to finally make an alt to help some friends with low level mythic+ runs, and trying to decide what healer to play, but I am struggling so hard to decide. Was the same when I tried to pick a tank, pros and minor (generally aesthetic) cons to everything, like I love the healing style of a Druid but I already play guardian and wanted some new class hall scenery, I like how much utility Shaman has with interrupt/stun/lust but I hate all of the artifact appearances except for the raid locked one I will never get (I know I can transmog but I do prefer using the artifact if I can), I like that Disc Priest can help a lower-DPS alt group by adding damage but I'm not sure if I would actually like the playstyle in higher level content, etc. Also trying to factor in which feel the best to play solo (disc definitely has the upper hand here) but not too big of a deal.
As a random aside, how are people feeling the healers stack up in Mythic+? Seems like they are all fairly solidly balanced these days, though I see almost no holy priests when doing random runs on my Bear. Does seem to be a bit of disparity in terms of random utility things that healers have for 5 mans though, ranging from the insane levels of shaman to Holy priest which doesn't seem to have a ton of direct utility to offer aside from raw healing (though mass disspel has its moments, looking at you spider stairs in BRH).
Even if it was it would be irrelevant, as your gear stats mean nothing in PvP and when you enter BG/Arena your stats are set based on a template and scaled based on your ilvl. So if every piece had Vers and you went to BG but blizzard said "your class has 10% Crit 10% Vers 20% Mastery 5% Haste" thats what you're working with.

fury hasn't been buffed yet outside of that ~3% increase three weeks ago
next week tho get a lil bit more
What do we get next week other than the decrease in damage taken in enrage?
~5-6% increased single target damage and a bit more AoE
small buffs to pretty much every ability, it's nice, but i wish they would just address the subpar artifact gold dragons over the number buffs. maybe when fury gets reworked
Ahh ok, I just switched to Fury and am still learning it. Just got my 2nd gold on my artifact, long ways to go. I need to get my ilvl up also only at 838 and the guild I raid with (cross realm raiding between a couple guilds) want to start heroic. We cleared normal in 80 minutes last night with no problems.
My issue is I took forever to find a class I wanted to stick with due to not playing since Burning really, finally landed on Fury Warrior so now just playing him and no other classes. Lots of catching up to do, hopefully I can get some more gear out of LFR/Heroics and somehow get into Mythic groups (in a very very small guild, tempted to switch to horde to join a gaffer's guild).

what the fuck is this secret gnomer boss
he kills you instantly on pull with 20,000 bombs

hmm finished all 4 zones as I usually do, but im only 108. Aszuna Im only 2/5 story wise, but the other 3 I did all (well, all of the chains that the map tracks). Still, feels like I should have been closer to 110. Guess ill go back to Aszuna and finisht that off then.
I even did the 4 pillar quests and the Violet Hold one :/

Levelling is kind of odd. On one hand, I was in the same boat as you, not quite 110 after "finishing" each zone as far as getting the 4 pillars of whatever goes. On the other hand, my Monk is 107 right now and all I did was get to 102 and unlock follower missions, 102-107 simply from XP missions from the order hall. Would be 110 but I ran out of resources hah. No reason to play that Monk at 110 though until 7.1 hits since there's no way I could unlock world quests having done ~75% of a single zone so far!

Doing the main mission in each zone will take you like 108 before the last zone, Aszuna being the one who gives lots of exp and quest in my runs, you would reach 110 on the middle of the last zone. (Storheim in my case)
Dont forget suramar WQs zones and dungeons being locked. You are forced to fully end each pillar if you want all the WQs of each zone. In suramar case to reach Revered quests and the optional quest to fully unlock Suramar WQs.
dude... this is my 6th 110 (well 109 atm lol). I did the main story on the 4 zones and I was 108 at the end. I had to go back to aszuna just now to do the other stuff in the map counter (im 4/5 now) to get to 109, and im going to have to go to highmountain and do the nesingwary stuff for example to get to 110 at this rate. This never happened on my other characters so im not sure if something changed since the last time I leveled (my priest some weeks ago).
like you said, I used to be 108 at the start of the 4th zone, this time I was 106. /shrug

rested exp?
I hadnt played the druid since I boosted her months ago so she should have been full? No idea dude. Its not a big deal since I actually dont mind questing just tjought it was weird compared to the previous characters.
I think that's the idea.
It caps at 25, and it goes well above 3000%. 25000% is the last one I think?
I guess it make sense if they want people to have 3 maxed artifacts without going insane.
It isn't exclusive to it, plenty of builds use versatility as one of their best secondary stats. It just seems that every piece I'm getting from a WQ/cache on my recently 110 warlock has versatility on it and it is making me insane.
After taking like a 2 week break from Legion to move and other shit I came back and realized being a fire mage sucks.
I really liked it at the start, but I think that was just my love of the combustion burn phase.
Outside of that 10 seconds, fire is kinda boring.
My Hunter is about to 110, sadly it seems like Survival is very bad atm, which is a shame, because it is the only Hunter spec that is fun. And man do other Hunters loathe that spec.

I think Mistweavers love versatility too?
You know I don't think I have seen a single survival hunter at max level. You should go for it if you like it. Might be able to change some people's perception.
Yeah, from what my friend told me its Crit/Vers for MW.
