I did Gnomer last night, it was awful even tho i made mage water for no one else.
There is a strike rn we need to spread awareness. I made a macro
NO I CAN NOT GIVE YOU WATER! Sorry there is a mage water strike right now because we are forced to generate 2 at a time that only regenerate under half our mana! Buy your own, i’m not spending 5 minutes on each person making them water.
I have a macro for water and portals that swap on spare pants w/ icy veins to save .5 sec on each cast… it saves about 2.5 seconds for a full mana bar of water but that only gives me 18 water and i sit down to drink 2 full waters so i can do it again…
I’ll never have sympathy for Mages making water after maining a Warlock making Healthstones and summoning in Classic and Mages saying it was the same as making water.
Personal grudge aside, they really should do something, make a table or something.
When I was at that level with water in p1 I just gave pug groups the 1 tier lower water for the same reason. If they want the good stuff they can buy it from the vendor.
its miserable now.
This is a social game and mages are socially pressured to prepare water for the group.
This is not something we can do at the moment while everyone else got QOL runes for this situation we did not.
Not that I don’t recognize the issue, but…why not just prepare water ahead of time? While your warlock is getting themselves to the raid in order to start summoning people, why don’t you start stocking up on water while waiting for a summon? Win/win for everyone
