2min rez timer + warmode = archaic

This post speaks to me. I don’t know why, but it does.

That’s extremely close-minded of you. You might not care about other MMOs, but you know who does? Blizzard. Most of the systems in WoW originated in other MMOs. Be glad they didn’t take xp penalty from deaths too.

You must not have played in vanilla. Corpse runs were so much worse then.

Oh I did. I just figure with 12 years of game development under their belt they might have learned a thing or two when it comes to not doing horrendous things.

They need to lower rez timers considerably. However, then they need to revert the rez hitpoints back to where you rez with only a fraction of your hitpoint bar filled. It kind of ruins it if you spend 5 minutes fighting someone and finally kill them only to have them rez and run back to you with full hitpoints while you are finishing off his friend and you only have 1/4 hitpoints.

That’s your fault. Heal between fights man.

There is no “heal between fights” if you are still in combat.

Assuming you’re on this paladin, you can heal during the fight. You have like 5 lives.

Yeah I dont, not one bit.

Doesn’t mean they don’t exist. What are you an Ostrich? If you bury your head in the ground and shout LALALALALALALA real loud, doesn’t mean other things you don’t like won’t exist.

Suck less.

I hate it. You get camped? You’re gonna spend a LOT of time running and then just sitting there for 2 minutes every what… 30 seconds that your butt gets killed again?

It’s terrible.

I honestly like the rez timer. You only get it, and it increases if you die over and over in a short time period.

The reason I like it is because people can jump back into a fight right away, On my DK a month ago I was in a 1v2 fighting a warrior and pally that both slightly out geared me. After I killed the warrior he managed to revive right away. Killed the Pally and then she revived, I could not even escape because they would revive before I could kill the other and run. Thankfully right after a Horde monk arrived to help them an Alliance party came and saved me.

If they had no delay I would not have had a chance because of how quick they can get back up. I do think more Graveyards would be nice but I don’t want the timer removed.

I’ve been on the wpvp receiving end of a group beat down and camping.

You need to be smart about choosing when and where to rez. There were plenty of times when you died and didn’t have a 2 min wait. You should have looked around, found a good spot on the edge and hearthed or ran.

There is an engineering crafted item called gunshoes and many types of alchemy crafted speed boost potions that you can buy and use if you choose to run instead.

Who said anything about things I dont like not existing? Even if some idea did originate in another game, that doesnt mean something fail from another game makes it ok to have something somewhat less fail retained in wow.
Wow should be designed the way that works best for wow. A tough concept i know, especially if someone effectively apologizing for anything blizz has done in wow that is crud.

How is it archaic with War Mode, if we’ve already had PvP servers since launch? If anything it was actually already neutered, as I believe it used to max out at 5 minutes?

Everyone has a different opinion on what is best for WoW.

I totally agree with that statement. However, I disagree with the notion that we should be grateful for the way things are in wow, because of the way things are, or were, in other games. To me thats an obvious issue of relevance.
