Nope just laughing at the ridiculous nature of your posts tbh. You have a gift with derailing hunter talk with absolute nonsense. I saw misinformation I corrected it and then you doubled down which seems to be the go to response. It has been explained to you so many times with math and reasoning and yet you still pretend you know better. When does it end…
That doesn’t refute it that you’re laughing nervously. You’re laughing to protect and defend that McWeaksauce ego of yours that would get reamed upon first contact with the enemy. Because you never really knew what hard really was, and unless you go Classic like I am presently, you wouldn’t. You were carried to your successes, but not by me. I’d tell it like it is: if you can’t pull your weight in anything, you’re out. Simple as, and you pull an attitude, /gkick. The outer community is that harsh and harsher.
It’s easier to laugh at me because you don’t know what to do about people like me. That’s what people do in real life all the time. I’m an existential house fly to you. I exist by my own power and wits. You exist on sponsorship.
*And by “the enemy”, there’s two: the non-Hunter community and Blizzard. You think I’m the bad guy now, but non-Hunters and Blizzard will gladly put us all in our place as they are doing. This is the Thin Green Line; us vs. not-us. Unfortunately, Rogues are included in the not-us category. How are you going to handle Rogues taking your spot after 10.1.7 and 10.2, if you’re nervously laughing at me after all the real talk I’ve given on everything? Or forbid it in PvP should you dare, how will you handle Rogues just outright deleting Hunter with their new stuff?
It would make more sense to me if you did a FOTM Rogue reroll, quite frankly. Or Warlock more presently…
Another case of you projecting your fantasy in the forums.
Source?
Implying that classic requires pulling your weight more than retail is laughable.
No you exist on narcissism and delusion
Again source?
You’ve just further proved my point. Rather than actually being able to have a sensible discussion about hunter you go on these wild rambles that carry no weight and are just complete nonsense.
Says the one who virtually never leaves his computer, to someone more unprivileged than him that he is expected to interact with RL people publicly and privately. Shhhhhhhhocking that some WoW players like me do exist. Trust me, I know your type as one of the privileged “couch class”.
Imagine that: having a couch classman tell me I live in and project fantasy, when WoW and anything else PC is the only validation you probably have for whatever you are.
I know I don’t have as much as some others, but I got it where it counts and matters the most. My WoW thing is truly the LEAST of all my trophies. Simple as. If anything, you’re looking at the smallest aspect of me as a person.
I blocked him, he’s absolute peak narcissistic personality disorder. Ive met people like this IRL, there is NOTHING that will convince them of anything resembling reality because they “know” to their core that they are better, smarter, more intelligent, more educated and better in every way than literally anyone else.
Dude literally sees people as two groups:
Group a is people who are beneath him and too stupid to understand his genius and group b are people who are beneath him but smart enough to worship him and his superiority.
There is no group C, everyone is one of those 2 things. In his world in all scenarios he is the most knowledgeable and superior being. Anything said to the contrary of this puts you in Group a. Any and all evidence that he is wrong is actually evidence he is right and you are just in group a.
You know that if blocking really works the way it is supposed to, it would not allow me to see what you wrote. That would get rid of a LOT of this DRAMA if the system set it up to where it negates all posts. That would be beneficial for me.
And didn’t I say earlier that you were okay in my book? You would still be. I just think you struggle with things like history. I talk more about recent history and that snapped it: the straw that broke the camel’s back. You had me convinced for a moment that you thought, “Dang, I didn’t know he’d know how 10.0 was played. Was he even in the forums earlier this year?”
But you also have an ego too that can’t handle adversity and opposition, whether benign or otherwise. Due to that ego you wouldn’t accept the L.
Funny that the problem people I deal with have ego issues.
The funny thing is that I don’t doubt this. If you live in the big cities, and especially in some parts of the United States, you see people like that all the time. I’m not surprised. But I live in a smaller pop density and a certain place where people like that are much less common.
I don’t put people in groups. The only thing I stressed is that it only gets harder after you’re finished with me continuing a contrary course. When someone hands your butt to you in PvP, or when your raid leader tells you you don’t have a slot anymore because you foolishly thought you knew better than someone who spent enough hours in the class/spec, am I responsible for your L? Or did I not try to SHARE and CONTRIBUTE things I learned from my own L’s?
But if you’re just going to pad your ego here about me, I might as well tell you that not many other people besides me will put up with me. It’s a safe space quite too small.
I mean you don’t know anything about me this just screams projection. Pretty funny coming from someone with far more hours in wow and posts on the forums.
Nobody really knows anything about me but boy howdy, licensed psychiatrists you didn’t know that existed came right out of the woodwork and issued diagnoses. If people are going to make snap judgments at the face value of things, turnabout is fair play. It’s almost as if nobody knew the first thing about narcissism unless by Internet memetics. The Internets, not an actual college or university, taught psychiatry to some here.
That’s why nothing is changing, but given a few years, it’s going to go from narcissism to something else just as the way the Internet works.
But people who have sufficient ego strength are fine with me. At face value, they’re not as likely to throw arguments. The idea is more important than the idea’s carrier, so if my ideas are bad, they won’t get far. I see bad ideas on the forums all the time. Trying to gamble for TShot procs to get the best uptime for TShot while at the same time complaining about high variance is not just a bad idea but a bad idea squared. But I didn’t try to make a diagnosis on the Crit/Haste stackers except that they might have a gambling disorder, but that’s based off what’s prima facie. Now, the thing is that nobody likes a compulsive gambler. In RL societies, people like that can and do get hurt. So even if I’m a true narcissist, I’m a lot safer that someone who has a gambling problem.
This has been proven for too much and for too long to be considered wrong: on-demand damage is a good thing. That’s what Blizzard has actually tried giving us. I remembered early in BFA when Trueshot gave us 40% Haste; it didn’t work, so instead of reconfiguring the Haste effect, Blizzard started taking off cast and recharge times manually by percentages.
MM has always worked the way it did since Legion. That’s not going to change in just one mid-cycle major patch and without it being integral to a major overhaul. Because Blizzard had a chance to make Haste more active for the spec and had many years until now to reprogram it. It’s a fly in my soup at best when other Hunters are not on the same page this way.
I mean its how the talent works and as I showed you the best simming build without said talent is like -24k dps so if you want to suggest that you are truly an idiot.
Its literally just running the best talent build and then min maxing dps with it? If they followed your terrible advice they’d still be running the rng build just doing less damage lmao. Also you are aware this is a video game not actually gambling money in real life?
It got a massive rework in BFA though so this is wrong.
Talents were changed going from 10.0 to 10.1 which changed the build pretty straightforward stuff.
Only one not on the same page is you clearly.
I never talked about skipping out on that talent. I never said not to run it, like people skipped it in 10.0. I was only talking about stat priorities.
But it’s a crappy thought pattern. I used Visions of Perfection since 8.1-8.3 which was a superior TShot uptime system. But I took in the suck skipping the heavy Vers. People clownified me for that too, despite that it was a necessary evil. Most of the time I WPvPed in BFA I had 0-1% Vers.
Funny that when SL came into the picture, VoP was removed completely.
I don’t dispute it being the best. But you just highlighted the problem: RNG. That’s the reason it’s bad, not my “terrible” advice. And while this is not gambling in real life, it’s Skinner box mentality all the same. The focus should be on-demand: I press the button once, I get a piece of bacon, instead of pressing it 1+N times and even on the pretense I may get lucky and get 2, 3, or 5 pieces of bacon.
It’s why I’m quite confident in Blizz. They have throughout the times given MM the on-demand damage treatment though without trying to keep us OP for too long.
So if I’m having a TED talk, it would be about getting MMs to embrace on-demand damage.
I’m not really talking about borrowed powers. I’m talking about the fundamentals. Of course MM played differently, but the secondaries performed the same.
Not as in the full rework we may rightfully get last or not at all, but Blizzard is testing the waters there, not unlike they are seeing if they want to go forward with the neo support class model after a successful report with Augs. But Blizzard may be a car mechanic looking to see if they want to rebuild the MM engine differently for Crit/Haste or calibrate and tune up the Msty/Vers engine.
That can mean only two things if that’s true: that I’m in first place or last place in the race in question. But I know that’s there’s enough MMs who get it and are getting it done(what things they can do). My advice is useless to them, as it’s useless to those who already know.
But it’s the ones who don’t know and actually need help if they’re hardstuck. I’m here for them. Because there’s not many in their shoes. A pleb is best off going to a higher ranking pleb than going to a patrician for these things, since the senior pleb can relate more.
Ok so if I’m using x build it makes sense to sim my gear for that build and follow the sim.
Ok I’m not talking about wpvp tho because it does not matter to me.
Ok but you are running the talent still? You say the focus is on demand damage but thats what cds do swapping your stats is just doing less damage and being a deadweight.
So press your cooldowns 10/10 ted talk.
Go look at legion mm and then bfa mm it was a massive rework and if you think otherwise you are trolling.
Bro they are just stats it ain’t that deep. You just wear what sims best based on tier set/talents/base kit.
Last
If someone wants to get better why would they go to a bad unknowledgeable player instead of a good one that knows what they are talking about?
Who have you saved from QQing? Or should I ask: how many MMs did you make quit? How many MMs are still raiding, even right now, because of what you said here? And the same questions are asked me.
Plenty of them may have wimped out into BM spec or out of the class and game altogether, which means you can show them the sims and the maths all you want like you did me but it might not get them to come around.
Because I played MM during the times(BFA) that QQing was the easy and rational decision to make. I was never a FOTM opportunist except for the very Gucci Mad Bombardier SV. This meant I had to be VERY knowledgeable lest I QQ early from not getting it and having fun with it.
It was only ONE patch ago where based on the last tier set system, CRIT provided a “Haste supplement” to the Msty/Vers diet(and you didn’t need a lot of Crit rating thankfully). That’s where I magically lost Wrathlon. I know 10.1’s been out a few weeks, so any MM that had raided previously would have that set starting out. I don’t know how long it would take to actually cobble together the new 4 tier set pieces, though.
So you can’t change people’s minds overnight about this. You may be ahead of the curve in your ivory tower, but not the other 99%. It’s not looking good already for said 99%, though it wasn’t looking good back then when we lost Double Tap and were forced to take garbo talents like Steady Focus to get to TShot.
Short version of this is that it takes time. We’ve talked and argued about something that is still spanking new. We don’t even know what’s really going to happen to MM’s playstyle in the future after Blizz decides to take us out of timeout. But if you ask me, I’m still all about that bass, 'bout that bass, no treble.
I’d imagine random forum posts have very little bearing nor do I care.
Again don’t care
It was actually extremely easy and simple to do damage on so no u didn’t need to be “VERY nowledgeable”
Its actually been almost 3 months and I got a fresh warrior alt last week from ilvl 390 to 441 in 2 weeks with 4 set in the first week. Also again stats are just something that happens as a biproduct of simming yourself on raidbots thats what wow is these days sorry to burst your bubble.
I mean 99% is just a number you’ve pulled out of thin air, the guides, logs and raidbots all disagree with you so I guess you’re just the bottom 1%.
Irrelevant to current mm tho.
No one is please stop pretending to be an expert.
But I care, and that is why I’m here.
Eh, such things can’t be helped. I’m amazed you could get tier sets that fast. Back in SL it took me several weeks to convert M+ pieces as a WPvPer in SL 9.2.5.
It goes off on another tangent: if computers(sims) can just play the game for you, then what is that game? Also ironic that botting is still against the EULA, for all this reliance on 3P resources.
I personally wouldn’t bother with an online game like that, which is why I migrated to WPvP. The human element is too important. Just like the raid instances of old, roles and teamwork was more emphasized than making the raid encounters more complicated.
If you care so much why not get your facts straight first?
Well its used for gearing and how to play optimally then the onus is on you to actually do it.
Because I’ve been doing that for six years in PRACTICE.
Like turning on the TV. You press one button and that’s all you need to worry about.
I mean it doesn’t matter how long you’ve been doing it if you’re wrong though. Things change from patch to patch in wow or sometimes even mid patch when tuning happens.
This isn’t classic we have more than 1 button macros/rotations these days. Pretty terrible analogy.
Well, depending on which class/spec we’re talking about, such still exists in Retail lol. Because again, I immigrated from Warlock. It’s been 6 years so I should be able to speak Hunter quite fluently.
“I know how easy it got back in the old country,” if you get my drift aha.
Because that’s my main beef: class/specs that you can’t really lose if you go through the motions don’t appeal to me. I like MM because not only can you lose but you can lose HARD. And people will laugh at you for even attempting it with an “inferior class”. Much like being a Dark Eldar commander in TT WH40K, tactical blunders and bad luck will eat your lunch. It makes the wins sweeter…
And yet you constantly just plain wrong about so many hunter related things. Maybe thats a sign you should do some reflection.
You know you’ve been talking to someone who achieved world-first distinction with this class? Should I reflect that you don’t deserve the privilege to converse with me at all about Hunter? But that’s not how I ever rolled.
You should be getting me coffee like a good intern because esoterically, that’s where you really belong concerning me.
Now you want to talk about what I can do reflection for? It would be things like that, because to tell you the truth, nothing about you impresses me. That’s for REAL MMs like Cashmeowside and Durostar. You need to get on THEIR level.
You’re not going to easily get me to reflect on how wrong I would be as a Hunter; few actually give me pause based on how good I’ve seen them be. So don’t ever tell me I’m wrong(in the context you used, not saying I don’t make mistakes in judgment or w/e), because the kneejerk response is you’re wrong telling me anything without REAL distinction.
