And the point that you miss, every time on demand because you lack any actual response to it, is that this is still an mmo, communication and strategy are still a thing, these difficulties are designed with that in mind, and we have seen time and time again that even with nerfed and reduced mechanics that random groups have trouble doing the content they are in the group to do.
Your entire argument is you want the group to exist via queue and that is the end all be all. You fail to understand that the queue exists specifically to access the content that requires that same group. That groupâs purpose is to do the content. Without any care for composition, as we see with random bgs, you very much get comps that just fail, but now couple it with mechanics tuned for communication and team work but scratch that from the group as well because it is, once again, a random queue based group.
Your entire idea exists specifically to fail, which is why it will never be implemented.
But I guess Iâm the fool, because I keep expecting a player who puts an agi enchant on his caster staff while half and half hybrid specâd with the sole intention of windfury bonking people to death in arena, then calling people who beats him cheaters, to understand the basic fundamentals of this game.
He left riot last year so itâd of had to of been ~2 years ago, I donât know why heâd consider WoW to be one of his biggest failures but thereâs surely more to the story.
Much like you, they are allowed to express what theyâd like. If you donât like people expressing their opinions on the forums, donât come to read them.

We can see what youâre doing just based off of your gear and talents. Stats all do specific things. We can see what youâre trying to do based off of what your character stats are. We know what abilities a level 80 shaman has and we know what talents you run.
Youâre a half ele half enhancement for your arena build. You run a caster staff with an agi enchant. You have split your stats with your gear as well, specializing in nothing. You have yet to break 1700 as your peak for LKC.
You can pretend that itâs 05 and we have no idea how this game works, but that doesnât change reality, which is that itâs 2024 and this is a rerelease and we know how the game works.
I literally explained my reasoning, again. Itâs right there. Read it.
I keep saying it because your only response is ânoooooo youâre wrong blizzard shill and I wonât actually argue against your points other than just stomping my foot like a manchild and saying Iâm right.â
Present an actual argument against it and itâll go away. Until then, Iâll just keep reiterating that we already see random groups struggling, and always have struggled since their introduction.
There is a reason why LFR is the lowest difficulty raid tier, and has a stacking buff for wiping.
Letâs flip it, and talk about mythic. Why do you think mythic is server locked (at least till some kills are done). I can argue a couple of points. Itâs where the esports scene is (one of them), because itâs the hardest raid tier. Itâs the culmination of the story for the current patch. Itâs the bosses in their full mechanic form. It has titles and prestige associated with it. These are fights that take the objectively best players many hours and attempts to get done, and that involves intense strategy and planning, then wiping and redoing the strategy and planning more. Teamwork and communication are at the absolute forefront of this design.
And you want a queue based system to plop you in with 19 randoms (mythic is 20 man, insert your raid size and minus 1 for yourself for whatever difficulty you want to talk about) and just âgo do the raidâ.
You very well could have played since 04, but all that does is prove to me youâre an old wrinkled man who pathetically has never learned a core fundamental to the game heâs played his entire life.
Calling me a blizzard shill is not an argument btw. If I had any power or say in regards to blizzard I would have permaâd you by now.
For the same reason you need to find a group manually for Mythic Dungeons in Retail?
Like Iâve said elsewhere, I donât really care about it one way or another; it was good for seeing story bits I otherwise wouldnât have due to not being a raiderâŠbut its loss wouldnât deprive me of anything in Classic since the storyâs already known.
âŠWait, what?
After reading more, I see now. Still, what? O.o
Hence why I specifically mentioned FFXIV excluding the most recent raid tier in Duty Finder; if somethingâs new, a bunch of randos with varying degrees of communication and access to Discord are going to fail hard when even the best players geared towards doing that exact type of content have a rough time at best.
âWeâ is the authoritative PvE elite that sit atop of their high perches looking down at the rest of the population because you completed content that only your circle of demographics have access to.
Thereâs not knowing how the game works and playing the game your way. If I have to explain this to you, then itâs just a demonstration of your ignoranceâŠ
Purposeful ignorance because I know you know better that, but you need to spin my truth-telling in every negative fashion that you can because the things I speak of, put your ilk and the company to shame. Thatâs what makes you a gas-lighter; and, a liar.
I can break down anything you say and explain exactly how youâre being a condescending, nerd feces, ignoramus, gas-lighter; but, itâs just going to go in one ear and out the other, so I donât bother.
Goes to my point of purposeful ignorance. ^^ This statement is an example that itâs the prerogative of the PvE elite like you to determine what random groups of casuals are capable or not capable of.
Itâs the small group of liaison to the devs like you (I know you deny it, I canât prove it, but my intuition tells me youâre one of them) whose ideas are listened to, that then determine policy for the rest of the game.
Thatâs why classic era wonât introduce lvl boosts, tokens, an expanded in-game cash shop, etc.
The classic Andys wonât permit these things in era and they hold enough sway over the devs to keep it so.
Exactly for what? For no reason, Iâm sure.
Iâve already eaten a few reprimands; reported by nerd degenerates like you undoubtedly.
But with it being group content you alone canât speak for everyone.
You may know what to do within any given raid but to ask a random group of 24 people to also know that information, work together to beat the encounters and just be a cohesive group in general is asking a lot for what is the hardest PvE content in the game.
This doesnât mean anything, this is like someone older than me say something wrong but when I try to correct them they say âIâm older than you so I know more than youâ.
And you think that randoms would just tolerate it, that they wouldnât just leave as soon as something goes wrong because they can just queue back up?
Because it makes the game less sociable in a game where you should be sociable? Seeking a guild, asking players in LFG to do X, Y and Z is what makes an MMO community great.
Are those people the top raiding guilds or what? Who are they specifically
Personally Iâve only reported you once and that was when you threatened abuse towards me. You can call me what you want but leave derogatory talk and threats out of these forums.
I remember it being that if you saw me in a BG youâd verbally abuse me so yeah, I reported you for that.
By the way, if you reiterate that youâll still do it I will report you.
