Timewalking Antics

I get it, lots of folks believe that Timewalking dungeons are a joke and something to get through as fast a possible.

But cʻmon you are part of a team in there. Use your head.

So the situation - Im on my Protection Warrior doing some pug runs for a buddy trying to get the last 3 levels to 80. we get Deadmines. From the get go the ret Pally horses up, pops wings and pulls everything to the first boss.
“Okay” i say and casually jog to the scrum whirlwinding a couple of times to get some aggro back and contine as normal. For some reason the Pally seems to think Ret. is a tank spec. Heʻs rushing ahead pulling everything to the next boss and dies a couple of times doing so. IMO: If he thinks he can handle all that, go for it. Im thinking ʻwhy not play prot if you wanna pull and tank everything?" After the final fight he even leaps off the side by himself to go fight Cookie, pulling everything along the way. Im just…“whatever… have fun man” and hit leave instance group.

Fun fun

This is why they’re making TW more difficult.

unless he’s a super geared twink prepared to solo the dungeon, I’d initiate a vote kick

so, not a twink, just a jerk. (yes, him being unable to handle the pulls, causing wipes, makes him a jerk)

Its timewalking - it’s throw away content for fast leveling. Nothing more nothing less.

There are changes coming to it in 11.1.7. We will see how good or bad they are. Personanlly, I think they are horrible changes since it’s old recycled content that you can get via chromie time any time you want… I would rather see it stay as is for fast leveling if I decide I need another alt, or need to boost a friend or two in a few hours.

As far as the ret pally goes. Eh, yeah I would Q as a tank if I were going to just pull the entire zone. Stuff dies so fast even as prot it would not matter if you’re ret or not. Maybe he accidently queued as DPS and not tank? I’ve done that before lol.

I just let them kill themselves and laugh and go on. Paladins eat crayons anyways bro, they aren’t actually sentient. They’re basically the lemmings of classes. The smart ones just bubble hearth

I was leveling my rogue through Deadmines and the paladin tank pulled everything up to the ogre boss. He died, healer died. DPS scrambled and got down the boss.

Repeat this process up to the goblin boss in the forge where he jumped down, no one followed. He died and someone initiated a kick.

Wasn’t me.

Basically what i did, i didnt find it important enough to rush to his defense. When i got there Iʻd try to get aggro back but if he died before i could jog there… well… :person_shrugging:

Intervene - “Do i not exist?”
Not for this guy you dont…

And by “more difficult” its really just “no longer trivial, but still easy”

Moreover we gonna ignore the fact he is a Prot Warrior using Whirlwind at level 77. That should be off your bars at that level.

Did he die though?

If yes, kick the idiot.
If no, he made the run faster which everyone benefits from.

It’s not like players are in there experiencing the awe and wonder of classic dungeons for the first time, classic TW was in the rotation during the anniversary and it’ll be back yet again for Turbulent in ~2 months.

I’ll have you know I prefer pastels… much better texture not as waxy.

The thought of that made my teeth shiver. LOL

Go on follow and go eat. That’s what I do. I come back full and ready to hop in another one so I can go make a coffee

My favorite color of crayon is Salmon.

Has he done all the Delves? First time through on each Delve you get about 82K XP. You get more XP actually doing the Delve so once you’ve done them all you shouldn’t have much further to go to get to level 80.

What? its a cheap and quick AoE for grabbing easy threat? What do i sit there and twiddle my thumbs until thunder whatever comes off of cooldown again?
Folks keep ragging on how TW is so easy and yet have opinions of abilities.
