This.
To find success as DPS, I have had to really step up my game. Really be on the ball with interrupts, stuns and even swapping pets on certain fights for the dispel effect Imps have.
There is so much passive damage going out, healers really can’t do much about the damage that is preventable.
ilvl 620 club represent.
I have no idea why they added an extra +20 ilvls to content that’s only designed for pros or people who could be pros with zero way for anyone else to access it - it gives 95 (at least)% of people nothing to realistically go for.
i think you (locks) and hunters have some %hp in the tree or something. you guys usually have more hp.
i compensate by taking less damage i like being the one with the least damage taken at the end of the run.
??
But you get gilded crests in 8
Mythic track from vault at 10
Both of which get you the extra +20 ilvls
One easily done in 605 ilvl
The other in 615 ilvl
Both of which are below your current ilvl
“Just Do +10s or Mythic Raid.”
K bud.
I miss Legion M+.
It wasn’t overdesigned.
Whether people will admit it or not we are all in the same boat this season. I’ve achieved all of my same goals but I certainly worked more to do so.
It’s just a result of the key squish compounded by a horribly designed list of dungeons/affixes for the season. This, to me, is a test/hump season. We will get through it and they will inevitably reassess M+ again going forward. If we’re lucky it won’t involve nerfing rewards from other content to make M+ appear more reasonable.
I will say, Warforging/Titanforging is one of those things where I’ll admit… I thought I didn’t like it, turns out I did.
It kept me showing up for Heroic raids even when I had BiS, hoping for a semi realistic shot at an upgrade. It wasn’t a high shot, but it was enough and it made me look forward to seeing what ever boss dropped even near the end of the season.
Once I got AOTC this season, I had nothing really left to achieve.
I’d throw that in with actual daily quests. People begged and pleaded to be given less in both cases. Wild to be completely honest.
This season is overtuned.
I took one healer into one dungeon after I hit 80, and immediately parked him. I won’t even try to heal right now.
Yeah, made a post about item level cap but in general totally agree. They aren’t trying to get new players at all, just trying to appease some whales and top .05 percent of player base.
Quite achievable for mythic track gear.
If you can get 3 dps to sustain 800k damage OVERALL, you can time 10s
But we had the key squish in DF with considerably worse affixes that gave no benefit to the group and it was easier.
Now we have a single affix to deal with that gives a massive buff for 20-30 seconds and yet we’re all struggling
I thought M+ was bad before the key squish. I on-boarded to M+ in S1 of DF and thought it was already giving the middle finger to new players.
Now…holy yikes. If I hadn’t become a part of it in DF I would never think of it now.
We had that key squish on repeat dungeons that everyone knew like the back of their hand with bullion BiS raid gear, like rings and trinkets to carry us. If everyone could skip over to a vendor to buy their unlimited track Ansurek trinket it would be different this season.
I’ve gone over this with ya bud. DF S4 was so much easier than TWW S1.
Yes?
Okey dokey bud.
45k posts. Clearly you are objective on this matter and do a whole lot of things other than WoW or WoW related activities (and maybe Work)
I think the expansion is “TWW” (The War Within)
“WWI” is World War 1.
To be quite honest Kennie is a font of useful information but very out of touch. He’s good people though imo. Just doing his flex thing which I’m accustomed to.
I know Kennie. No hate.
But sometimes you have to remind some people they’re in so deep they can’t see the forest from the trees.
Bro idk if it was scaling getting me or what. But I got wrecked leveling a healer in classic content for the 20th. People would be getting smashed and my heals felt like they didnt even heal. I wont dare step in a keystone or even pvp as a healer.
That job is way to stressful for its own worth now. I use to be a top 200 healer in TBC-Mist. I stopped. And coming back this stuff is hard work now. And without addons or weakaura’s? Good luck. You need a addon to even get invited to a group for M+ and blizzard dosnt see an issue with it.
