Where do you need a slow fall in Siege?

Alliance siege

5

In the beginning to get across the water to the lower level. Alliance start only.

I’m only at 2100 ish IO which is nothing atm. Decided to run a 17 siege with my buddy who was tanking, key leader wad a 2500 dh and the third dps is a 2600 rogue. Both get insta deleted by first cannon barrage on 2nd boss. Rogue starts rage typing that he died to aggro from adds then leaves the group a few deaths later.

Also had a dk tank grip one of the adds on final boss of jy into melee killing our other two dps. That’s the great part of pugging, you never know what you’re going to get.

Is this a long anecdotal way of saying you don’t like raider IO?

9

Oh, okay. That explains why I was confused cause I have never needed slow fall in Siege.

10

No not at all

I joined a workshop +11 pug last night. Me, 2 DPS from same guild who started the group, and a healer. We wait for a tank for a while, then the group leader says he’s gonna pay for a geared and experienced tank. 5 minutes later, the tank joins the group. We proceed to the instance.

We miss the timer by like 30 minutes. The 2 DPS friends finish the instance in 4th and 5th place (behind even the healer) with 12k and 17k DPS. Me and the tank dealt 72% of the group’s damage. We had 27 deaths. 19 of those belong to the 2 DPS I mentioned. I kept my mouth shut the whole time, but I was freaking furious by the end. Then one of the trash DPS had the audacity to ask me if I needed the pair of legs that dropped at the end. I told them that I don’t need the pants, but that I’m going to scrap them. Then I hearthed.

If you’re expecting to be carried, mention that in your group description. At least say that you don’t care about timing the dungeon (even tho I still expect you to pull your weight even then). I’m not cool wasting over an hour in an m+ because of your incompetence.

This.
I play alliance exclusively. Done siege plenty of times and never seen anyone use slow fall.

Equip water walking for mount and jump.

And if someone really, really feels they need slow fall, buy the potion and come prepare.

13

It’s not needed, but It’s more so meant for the druid healer since the water walking thing doesnt work in stag, and we don’t use mounts.

That’s saying the druid isn’t using wild charge and doesn’t want to swim, i’ve seen multiple people ask for slowfall in pugs

14

But druids have slowfall. Boomkin > Flap.

Don’t know if it’ll get you over that gap though.

Alliance siege is horrible, you have to wait like 10 seconds after killing 3rd boss for gate to open

At the begining the route you always go over from spawn to the bridge on lower level, you need water walking or slowfall or you die

The pack at 1st boss is different

16

Pugging M+ is absolutely terrible.

17

This story is either total fiction or so embellished that it’s more fiction that fact.

18

sounds like he got his IO as dps and thought he was able to tank because ‘blood dk is so ez hur da dur’ but didn’t realize he had to actually push buttons in a 14.

19

and yes, it does, if you jump off the edge mounted and shapeshift as you’re going down you have time to flap with momentum

20

alliance side players are just all bad no matter what their io says. I tried rolling on that side recently and its terrible from the heroic dungeons to the heroic raids and mythic plus. Folks must have all bought carries to get their kills on alliance side.
