Looks like this thread is done, if it wasn’t already. Just you two trolling each other at this point lol

There’s a lot more offices being shut down too, this is all part of the bigger plan to have more Blizzard employees working closely with Activision to further ensure that they have a hold over whatever is happening.

Activison is 100% responsible for all the shady monetization we have had for the past couple expansions.

The game isn’t a ghost town, it has millions of subs and its the second highest grossing PC game behind only league. Like how are you this delusional? Lol

hur hur, silence peasant before i intervene those cheeks, hur hur intervene op

Don’t tell me about retail while you post on a classic character lmao, legit no one is having fun with this expansion.

The content is almost more trash and generic than your mage’s name.

hur hur intervene op, paladin no have fun with heals, bubbles, and burst dps? hur hur git gud, intervene op hur hur

I don’t know why the idea of WoW as a platform for competitive PvP continues to be entertained. PvP balance has been trainwreck of one form or another for the overwhelming majority of the game’s existence — the only thing that changes are the specs that are broken, and that will likely continue to be true until the servers shut down. This is doubly-true in arenas where even minute differences in performance can determine games.

What are you on about? AWC gets more views than any PvE event.

PvPers are far more important than PvEers.

hur hur intervene op, your self entitlement is over 9000, hur hur intervene op

I’m the one trolling? Says the guy hiding his profile and only reading 1 sentence of a 2 sentence post.

Except it’s not just the healers. A pally healer+rogue versus a pally healer+warrior, all else equal, will ALWAYS lose to the warrior.

What? I don’t even DO LFR, even on new toons it’s not worth the time investment for the gear. You really will reach for anything won’t you?

yea dude that what im getting at, blizz needs to fix that somehow. Maybe a mini rework for the arms spec. Like dude we agree on the same thing, that’s why i credit my healers way more than myself.

I’m not talking about popularity of arenas or importance of PvP vs. that of PvE.

I’m saying that WoW is bad at competitive PvP because the classes and specs are almost impossible to balance, particularly in small-form PvP where there aren’t enough team members to pad out gaps in class/spec capabilities. For balanced competitive small form PvP you need a game with a dramatically reduced scope so everything can be tuned around PvP specifically without damaging other parts of the game.

In other words, I think PvP has its place in WoW but it works a lot better outside of a small form ranked environment where class/spec balance isn’t nearly as critical.

let me back track on that a bit, it also depends on the skill level of that said rogue, i’ve lost to pally rogue combos before or ret pal/h pal before/ or monk/ hpal. Thats not gonna always be a definite thing to win versus them.

PVP in this game wouldn’t exist without PVERs, because the game wouldn’t exist. Views are meaningless. If we’re going with that as the threshold i guess Blizzard has to do whatever Baldy says from now on since he’s stolen enough content to get tons of views.

“all else being equal.” Skill level is part of all. That rogue was better than you.

this is because youre garbage at arms warr

It is true though.

yes, i know but that doesnt mean other comps cant win as well versus a warrior and healer, no warrior/ healer combo has a perfect record, they all have losses.

hur hur intervene op, me garbage, me use intervene to heal to full health, hur hur intervene op.

see maybe if you used intervene on your healer, you wouldn’t die to a trashcan ret/rogue team. like how do you even lose to that? were you just afk?
