But sure, keep saying you are good when you couldn’t do the basic challenges…
Raiding is a matter of having the time, and WoW PvP is a matter of having the right friends. They take skill, of course… but not a true measure of personal skill. Regardless… I’ve still done them… and MORE.
Except Priest has just about as many actual active spells as DH. The rest are CDs or utility.
CoH isn’t the same as PoH… PoH is a massive emergency group heal while CoH is a light spread rotation heal that is efficient and designed to keep a group topped while not burning a large amount of cast time. In the past when PoH was spammable due to low mana cost it was literally 99.9% of the Priest’s cast. And Holy Nova is a light heal while providing strong burst damage and granting heal procs. It’s good to have that option in large AOE pulls. You can’t combine them.
Flash heal is a weak emergency heal while Heal is a massive efficient heal. They had these combined in Wrath and it was too broken to have a single heal do it all… That’s why basically every class has a heal and a faster heal.
Holy Priest has shield and renew, but you really don’t use shield. You can almost remove it from your bars.
Purify and Dispel Magic can be macro’d into the spam ability. They changed it up a bit because of the multi specs and uses now + the CD on purify vs purge, but it used to all be one spell. It’s more balanced as 2 spells, but again you can macro it to one button.
PoM is another highly efficient rotational spell that does loads of heals. It’s an active button that feels good + gets you procs. It rewards you for using its short CD.
Above is literally your entire rotation. The rest of the spells in your toolkit like Hymn, Holy Words, Symbol of Hope, fade etc are all CDs in our toolkit. They all serve unique purposes that help make our spec viable.
Sure we can dumb all of the classes down to 5 buttons and make it like heroes of the storm, but that wouldn’t be fun or compelling gameplay. It’d removed fun stuff like Mind Soothe and Shackle Undead. It’d remove AOE vs single target rotations. Just look how boring Holy has become with Flash Concentration. It’s basically a 1 button spam while keeping a stack up.
the game is bad now, I play other stuff instead. I have a career and a family that mean more to me. And a million others. I did those things when I was a teen / in college.
I play WoW cassualy at my own time now… if I even feel like it. Yet I still know how to use all the useless keybinds they throw at us… I just find it’s garbage design when compared to most other games I’ve played.
No no no… I DO play the game. I just don’t make it the center of my life like you do.
I mean, all you do is work and play WoW, and your self-esteem is tied to your WoW achievements. That’s unhealthy. You need therapy.
Do you lack the self awareness to realize YOU tried to do this first? Or are you being intentionally obtuse? You tried to start an epeen mesuring contest… just to make your voice louder… but you didn’t even have leverage to keep it up, and then to be able to continue, you tried to brag about your poor work-life balance.
No its that using a full tool kit isn’t necessary for content that almost the entire player base actually does.
As for the turn evil example that is completely different spell effect so no its not a similar end result. One is a 6 second stun that contributes to stun drs and the other is a 45 second fear that causes a mob to run away. They are not similar at all.
I dont want to have less spells and have them with multiple effects like hoj or hoj but on undead. I would rather have the full array of options available to me. I dont want to use bubble if I cast it on myself or bop if its on someone else. I want the options to choose between them in each scenario.
No one. what I am saying is that I dont want a game without lots of options or I would play a game without lots of options. Which I dont. Because I dont want to.
Right now I have gaps on a lot of my classes bars but for curiosity sake how many buttons would you reduce us all down to if you had full control to do whatever you like?
This user’s public profile is hidden.
Yep that checks out lol
Mage tower gear scaled down to ilvl 50… lol
Oh the classic “someone is better than me at a game therefore they must no life it”. nice
They just said you haven’t done anything in game to show that you do hard challenges. If that is upsetting you then I think you are projecting pretty hard with all this.
That is not what I’m saying. I’m saying you don’t need to overbloat the keyboard to have a broad set of tools. One button could do multiple things, and then it would be player choice how to best use each button in the best possible way.
regardless, you do touch on something important. Having to make difficult choices adds depth to the gameplay. Having a button for everything and classes that can do it all simplifies the class selection process and decreases depth. That’s basic game theory.
Which is false. Our achievements track it…
And I said he hasn’t done the MT challenges, which is true. Again, trying to go for the ad hominem and failing because I can do it too… but with facts.
yet people were buying socket gear to be able to complete it…
