No Reason Why The Slime Cat Shouldn't Be In LFR

Because it is.

It is.

I understand that. What you can’t see to comprehend is that they move achievements over early. It’s still part of the fated patch that’s on ptr. You can’t get season 4 achievements in season 3. The achievements were not active and still subject to change.

You literally just destroyed your own argument.

Since it’s not active it’s still subject to change :man_facepalming:t3:

So… you’re accusing me of not reading your posts but I’ve explained at least 3 times that it’s a bit more than that.

No I didn’t you absolute spanner.

The PTR is for testing, anything on the PTR is subject to change. We know this. If all of this had happened on the PTR, and NONE of it crossed over into the live game, then it would be understandable. There would still be salty players, not not nearly as many, because all of this happened on the PTR and by the time the content moved over to the live game as part of a patch, the content had changed.

If it had actually happened like you imagined it did, then most of the outrage wouldn’t be here.

But it didn’t happen like you imagined it did. Patch 9.2.5 launched in May, at that point it was no longer on the PTR. It was part of the live game. The S4 achievements that came with it are also part of the live game.

The rug pulling happened while the achievements were part of the live game.
The stealth-fix to the achievements one day before the season was due to start happened on the live game.

Now go back to your corner.

Second person I’ve slapped on ignore since I cleared my ignore list. God I hate people who just don’t understand basics and insist that their imaginary version of events are real.

Yet there was still no official statement saying LFR awarded the slimecat.

If it’s not active it’s not live.

Yes it would. Bad players and people on GD get outraged over everything.

Stop trying to look smart. You’re bad at it.

shia lebouf actually exists, crazy man

I think we’re mixed up here, I’m not saying that slime cat shouldn’t be available to LFR players at all. It absolutely should, I was saying that there is a difference between Normal and LFR to some players.

That Soar nerf lol, not the nerf itself but the reason given is

SUPER STUPID

Wait what did he just say? You nerfed a racial because of how it affects the efficiency of travel doing

OLD CONTENT?!?

Am I in real life right now?

clearing old raids for transmog, pet battling

WHAT?!

This can’t be real life.
Screw the nerf itself, the reasoning blows my mind

Soaring to the next pet battle faster is the new “cost a raid tier” and “don’t you have phones”, right?

I think that one might be the dumbest one yet.

pet battles is a thing?

Who says they have to complete the raid in one shot? They can knock out 3 or four bosses three days a week and complete the raid.

And I highly disagree with your take on the skill issue because the biggest time waster Ive experienced this season on normal is bad players either not knowing their class or doing horrible DPS. Most of them either dip out after a wipe or two or have to be kicked because they refuse to follow instructions. LFRs are easy because most mechanics are turned off and its nothing more than a tank and spank. You can carry bad players in a LFR, but not in normal.

wait u could do it faster with old soar? dangit

i agree lfr has persisted because it fills a population niche, they kinda pooped on that niche

Opinions are always valid. However valid an opinion is does not mean it is a useful opinion. I agree Blizzard sorta pulled the rug out from under the LFR players. To that I can only say AND? Blizzard has decided it does not belong in LFR for whatever reason so that is how it has ended up. Based on blue posts responding to this concern it is pretty obvious they have a 0.01% chance of overturning their decision. They made it, justified it, and have backed off ZERO. You can keep fighting the ‘good’ fight if you wish but it is falling on deaf ears.

Nobody is saying they have to, they are probably feeling they should.

My fear was that since these are old raids that raiders are probably tired of, it would get harder and harder to get into raids as the heroic and mythic people have their rewards and there would be no reason to continue.

Agreed, I thought the official ‘reason’ was stupid. Although I do understand it to a point. Take ZM rares for example. If I decide to go back there and clear the rares for transmog, it’s going to be super annoying for me on my epic flying mount if a group of Dracthyr players just soar across the map and not only get to the rare, but completely murder it, before I get close.

Which means I gotta camp that spot and wait. Which may take a while if it’s not a rare that spawns on a regular basis.

Post-nerf they can still get there pretty quickly, but I might be able to get a tag in before the rare dies at least, because they’re still moving fast, but not over twice as fast as I can move.

Hopefully they revert the nerf after they get an idea as to whether or not Dragonriding is going to be a piece of evergreen content (which I hope it will, and that it becomes available for every mount).

As far as the soar nerf goes what I think they should do is revert the nerf to soar and make a video on Youtube of a regular character on fastest flying mount possible and a dragon then have a race see who can go from the top of EK down to the bottom and see who wins.

I know the flying mount will win all the time because the dragon will need to stop and regain air to soar.

And I’m linking the IA post to show that in this case, they didn’t.

a soar race is a good idea

Highly highly disagree. Everyone can have an opinion but that doesn’t mean it’s valid.

You have to prove that your opinion is informed enough to count as anything more than wild guessing.

Valid to whom? To the person having said opinion I am sure it is very valid.
