Activision is abandoning wow?

I’m waiting for a reason to jump ship. FF looks promising, but more so New World.

Well Ion pretty much stated bring the player not the class got the boot. So there’s your abstract answer on balance.

They wont do a lets balance them all in one go pass. You’ll see the under performers slowly getting +% boosts over time and the over performers getting -% downgrades over time. Thats how they balance these days.

Consider yourself informed :smiley:

It seems like great PS5 releases are steady, ik it’s a little difficult to get one atm, but imo keep your eye out for an available PS5, super worth it!

So you’re telling us the game is going to be enjoyable for 3 months out of 2 years expac. Sounds logical, even blizz boi can’t defend this correctly.

No the financials do the talking in the end. Not you, not me.

They fixed bugs much faster in BfA.

Didn’t even know that. Thanks for the info! Actually makes me feel super good about just walking away on this xpac, right after gladiator though. ngl, if anyone ever asks me anywhere down the road in life if I got gladiator in WoW I want to be able to honestly say yes, about 20 games away.

Thanks again! :slight_smile:

The game does feel a bit stripped down to its bare systems at this point.

I don’t know exactly what it is (the thin storyline that would’ve been a quest chain at launch in the past, the lack of RPG elements, the continuing lack of character customization, the “boxes” of content that we’re trapped in that feel almost like separate games, etc.) but there’s been something off about WoW ever since the Legion redesign.

They’re starting to creep into this hybrid Diablo style play. I felt it happen as soon as M+ was released, and now much further down the rabbit hole with Torghast.

Mind you, I still play D3 regularly, one of the few left. The playstyle doesn’t really mesh with what should be the slower more relaxing/enjoyable aspects of an MMO. Competition is fun, but it doesn’t have to be this constant fast-pace madness (coming from someone who loves Mythic+).

Not sure I get what OP is talking about .
Cadence for Hotfixes has been very good. Seriously click the news tab
We have had 2 tuning passes for classes, with the holiday period in between

Is this satire?

In short, nothing you said was realistic or accurate. We’ve seen content updates, balances, and changes. We can actively view a change log on these forums. But you complained about something, so 43 angry kids upvoted you because … angry kids.

Where is the hotfix for people still getting deleted in a global cd in pvp? Or you mean the insane problem of vault and loot in general which essentially pushes casuals and lower ilvl out of the m+ scene? Or some covenant abilities so terrible that picking them is actually trolling your teammates like necrolord war?

All these hotfixes are useless and doesn’t really affect anything, cool buff on fury warrior, still the worst dps.

There have been several very long, detailed posts about how poorly the scaling went when they did the level squish. Old content that we should outpower, that we certainly outlevel, are still proving difficult. They pushed some patch notes vaguely saying they tinkered with mob scaling in old zones, but not a peep regarding Legion raids still not seeing the legacy debuff or last expac’s gear being better than current gear for soloing. Even WQ mobs in BfA are still actively scaling with us past 50 (or 51, 52, they scale all the way up to 60). So who knows what they tinkered with. It’s nowhere near the quality I’d come to expect from Blizzard, but exactly the quality I expect from Activision. Not the greatest feeling ever.

Edit; gonna echo how I feel like I’m playing D3 with WoW graphics. I went to play D3 the other night and went “I was doing this exact same thing in WoW…” before playing Deadpool instead (because I like Deadpool, fite me).

In that guy’s defense, using flags as downvotes is a terrible system but people are doing it. I’d rather get downvoted into oblivion than have to worry about getting flagged. I wonder if the mods who have to deal with 100 of those for every actual, real violation would like them back too, but were I a mod, I sure would :confounded: Just an observation/speculation, not arguing <3

Pick the right covenant for your spec. The data is out there.
Yeah 2s is pretty bonkers atmo.
M+ run with guildies or friends or try joining one of the communities for mythic +.

So what? What if I like the aesthetic of night fae shaman, is it a valid reason to be really bad compared to the others?

Yes, I picked my covenant in consequence of which is going to give me more dps as enhancement. Now I’m stuck with the ridiculous batman tmog… I hate this game soo hard.

I tried to use the guild finder tool since nobody seems to be recruiting in the chat. There’s this one guild looking for a shaman heal on their heroic progression on garrosh 25 man. Hyped af ngl. dead server.

The covenant thing with thematically fitting your class/spec is frustrating. I agree with you there.
I am pretty sure since the linked realms you can join a guild on another realm as long as they are linked?

In short, you contradicted something despite only having killed 3 bosses in lfr and have done nothing anywhere close to end game at all, are obviously completely disregarding logs (actual information, facts), and fallaciously drawing conclusions based on your giant ignorant ego.

M+8’s aren’t end game? Getting to max level, isn’t end game? Getting to exalted with multiple factions, isn’t end game? How about the rares and the covenant stuff, still not end game? OH, because I didn’t do one thing, that means I didn’t see end game, I see.

You want to put a little more thought into those posts? Also, disagreeing with someone, doesn’t mean I have an ego or that I’m ignorant, it just means I have a differing opinion.

But, I can see why you’re upset, because you’re one of the people that upvoted OP. And, just like I said, you’re very angry. So, I hope your day gets better, but you’re not right about this, you’re just angry and opinionated.

Reread what you wrote. I’m obviously not upset or angry. Not even sure why you’d interject those thoughts. You have a serious problem that you should seek professional help with. I’m sorry that I’m not qualified to help you, especially in a forum context, but I wish you the best. You should try and schedule something with someone that’s qualified to help you.
