Yea… no.
We had some absolute garbage hunters in Classic (because hunters were bad anyway so no one really cared about their dps) and they all had Lok.
Exactly… It’s not particularly dififcult. So if you can’t master a rotation that only uses 1/6th of your buttons i’ts kind of a stretch to suggest you “know how to play your class.” Because you haven’t mastered one of the most basic and easiest parts of doing so…
One of our most infamously terrible hunters was out there for an entire day doing it and managed to figure it out after dying over and over. You can brut-force Lok given enough time. You don’t have the same luxury in a raid with 25 other people and limited time.
i dont cheese im a turbo rp nerd when it comes down to questing
my rogue has cooking and when im farming meat i dont use poisons
because no one wants to eat food with poison on it
I mean that’s just being bad at your class, no offense… There are tons of things you can and should be purging as an enhance. If you’re not doing so it’s not because raiding doesn’t require you to “use all your tools.” It’s because someone else was picking up your slack… Which is pretty much all of raiding in most guilds. You’ve got a bunch of people slacking who don’t know their rotations, don’t know when to do more than hit their one dps key… and a handful of people pushing orange parses despite terrible kill times while covering interrupts, dispels etc…
idk at the end of the day the guy trash talked for a full year in the AV thread and in TBC his logs got leaked and he cant even do the hunter rotation right in phase 5.
After playing a hunter all of tbc there is 0 chance you shouldnt know your rotation by the end of the xpac. Everything else aside, there is 0 excuse for that.
As a resto generally sure. But if they weren’t purging or you didn’t have an enhance you should still be aware enough to purge pyro, fiends, MC etc. You shouldn’t just not have purge on your bar, even as a resto.
there are a few strats to not deal with blooms
i admit the stacking strat while smoother overall has some nasty damage spikes when blooms come out
if your healers are on top of it is ok if not is just asking for trouble
find out exactly why are people dying
there is ALOT of stuff that can kill you
all of them are avoidable
and keep dragon buffs on as many people as possible
the rest depends on the strat you run
I like how he keeps saying my logs were “leaked” i havent tried to hide them, i revealed my character on multiple occassions simply from being asked to do so.
Ive also admitted im not trying to parse and dont focus on big D meters.
My raid actually needs the dps now and are getting the mechanics down (mostly) so i am going to actually put some effort in, instead of mostly just spamming steady shot. And that effort includes training muscle memory for the dps rotation.
