That necro though.
Most of the people I see that are complaining about this are the rogues, bm hunters, and dh classes. Massive aoe skills with no ramp up time.
I think this is a great change and give other classes a chance at being on level in mythics. I know on my mm hunter I’d struggle on large pulls. Switch to bm and sleep through massive numbers. Let alone any dot based class or caster that really needs to ramp up. They had no chance at keeping up.
agree i don’t do high enough that will really matter, as i mention regular groups at +15 wont really be affected, will be for big pulls, that will have to deal with it.
“Effected” is relative.
Like at end of day aoe cap only matters for one thing. FUN. It just won’t be fun.
Top players will be timing highiest keys in context of that season in any envoiremrnt. Like it’s all relative it doesn’t matter.
All the people in this thread are stupid. Arguing over things that don’t even matter. Only thing that matters is FUN

indeed, this is a game, and should be fun to play, don’t want to really spend so much time analyzing stuff, and making hard core plans etc… should be fun to play at the end of the day we are more casual players than the ones who live out of competitive play
Fury warriors be like “What AoE Cap ?”

An AOE limit affix is actually a good idea, although I wonder how complicated that would be on the coding side of things.
Different people have fun in different ways. Some people love the min-maxing that goes into parts of this game.
There was already an AoE cap btw. Back in ye olde times I used to hang with a very special kind of Mage named Faxmonkey. His largest pull and it was the largest pull in the world at the time was around 187 mobs from a ziggaurat during the Naxx invasion event. Since, the cap was some number, I forget but near impossible to do, given that mobs will break free and are too sparse.
Anyway, I don’t think many realize that it’s not just 5 mobs that you can hit, it’s 5 mobs at a time so you can pull large numbers, you can get threat on large numbers, you just can’t hit them all at once with a given ability.
Well, it’s easy, it has nothing to do with the 1% (BTW if you think 1 out of 100 people are pushing 25 keys you’re insane, it’s more like .001%). This is about viewership and $$$. It was nerfed to get more people who may or may not play Wow to watch these competitions.
What? No. No… It’s to make top tier content less trivial. It’s 100% about making content have a clearly defined skill cap and thus ensuring a great many more classes are given access to higher end content rather than be selective about class makeup.
LoL, I love the sarcasm!

and thus the real reason for trying to remove flight back then…lol.
I read the comments. they didnt want to do the added work flight requires.
They certainly dont seem to be working to make this game fun for us given the clownish, pointless nerfs coming soon as well as the many we’ve already had to eyeroll thru that were ‘for our own good’.
That’s just the Blizzard way of doing things.

Yep, that is why you know these ridiculous comments are absurd. After you kill Nythendra and run down that tunnel, how many packs could you pull at one time?
It’s easy to put in Mobs that you must kill only one or two at a time, and actually designed dungeons that strongly suggest needs diversity. The fact is, they did not.
Yes thankfully the lead developer lead us to this point.
Where they knew the next expansion wasn’t anywhere near ready but they still set a release date. It needs 6 months to a year more in the oven but will probably end up getting released before it’s ready.
I’m well aware that afflictions AOE value goes up more and more with higher keys, i have done a 15 just about every week to cap the weekly chest and i don’t think that any classes ability to AOE effectively should be limited to 20+ keys or wherever you think is high enough to justify me having an opinion on the topic.

Shrug 10char
ur doing content u outgear. and ur class isnt front loaded. stop complaining cuz ur doing content ppl outgear and u dont have front loaded dmg.
It’s game-changing, that’s for sure. I have a feeling the best players in the world will still… be the best players in the world
