"We really enjoy the prebis phase of gearing"

Sweaties get dunked on again.

Spent hours and hours farming 0.5? Get smoked you ain’t using that gear. Put on your fire resist.

BTW, is it even possible to run MC heat level 3 with pure MC gear? Can they even use tier 1?

sweaties cleared the raid wearing 0.5 on heat 3 the day it came out, its so good that you build around it, you don’t take it off

yes, it is possible, all of the bis fr sets wear mostly t1

Hasn’t cleared MC ever in their life lmao

Ill still be using certain pieces of it :slight_smile: glad not all my pre bis stays bis

This perfectly sums up our experience in MC heat 3 clearing through Garr last night.

Oh you got some loot off Ony? Cool, put it in your bag and pull out your auction house green, chump.

Blizzard didn’t expect most guilds to clear 3 each week. It’s more of an achievement run with severe gear constraints.

This is incorrect. To reach the FR requirement on heat 3 that prevents you from getting one shot, not many t0.5 pieces are wearable. The t0.5 chest is good and typically worn with the pre-raid FR gear, but is that one piece worth the gold and time that went into the t0.5 questline? Maybe for some people, for others… probably not so much.

Also the “sweaties” you’re talking about exploited a mob spawn for rep, which is no longer farmable due to a bug fix, to get an item that gives 110 FR on use. 110 FR is huge when it comes to how many gear pieces you have to swap out. The only way they kept this 110 FR buff up is they rotated the use of the item. They were only able to do this because they exploited a spawn before it got nerfed. What this also means is their race in MC can’t really be counted, as the playing field was not the same, since they had access to 110 of free (gear slot wise) FR that no one else has access to. Whoever didn’t rotate the 110 FR on use item and still cleared heat 3 is who you want to look at for the gear required to clear.

A raid mode that drops more loot than the others is not “an achievement mode.” The mode that drops the most or best loot will be farmed. To expect otherwise is to be ignorant of the playerbase, which is not a good sign for a developer, although Blizzard behaves like a small indie company.

That’s offensive to small indie companies.

Blizz congratulated them all the same, so it actually does in fact “count”.

2 librams of res, and the cloak from ubrs, and a fire res trinket, and im still using all of my t.5 thats crazy.

You’re not at 226 resist with all t0.5 unless you have exalted Hydraxian rep.

7 pieces of tier 0.5, you are confidently wrong

again, you are confidently wrong, they have 226 fr without the duke’s domain trinket and it doesn’t give 110 fr on use, it gives 50

wew that is some serious misinformation

https://sod.warcraftlogs.com/reports/AqLX2ryYx9nbV7pd#fight=103&type=summary&source=18 here’s my character from prog, i have 6 piece 0.5 and nearly 300 fr buffed, i could easily wear the entire set and i’m not exalted

you mean like me? :thinking:

https://sod.warcraftlogs.com/reports/6RBYhaHdc17x94J8#fight=69&type=auras&ability=461113

you can quite clearly see that not a single person in their raid had even remotely close to 100% uptime on this duke’s domain trinket and no one died, that’s because they wore enough fr to cover it without the trinket, it was simply extra mitigation which didn’t even matter. People read a wowhead article designed to get clicks and take it like its gospel, they don’t even second guess it, if its written on the internet it must be true

The key item you’re ignoring is the trinket that requires Hydraxian exalted, that no one has except the few people who exploited a hyper spawn. That trinket is 20 static resist plus 50 resist on use. It only lasts 15 seconds but they rotated keeping the buff up. If everyone had access to the trinket, maybe it’d be impressive, but they have access to something no one does because they exploited a hyperspawn.

No one else without that exalted trinket will wear full t0.5 on heat 3.

i’m not ignoring it, i literally explained it precisely

ur ignoring it, infact you are ignoring everything in the post that proves you wrong…

what?, its like you read what i typed, realised u were wrong and then COMPLETELY ignored it and just posted the same thing i replied to originally, what the hell? are you a real person?

What you posted is only viable with fire resist aura. What did the group without a paladin do? Use the trinket?

magic resistance potions on the non paladin group + some others also used it incase they run out of range of their paladin

https://sod.warcraftlogs.com/reports/6RBYhaHdc17x94J8#fight=69&type=auras&ability=11364

the trinket was not relied on at all

You kept Garr from removing the magic resist pots? Or was it attrition.

their garr was only 1:39 long, he only casts dispel every 20 seconds or so, so only 3 people had their magic resist pots removed

https://sod.warcraftlogs.com/reports/6RBYhaHdc17x94J8#fight=44&type=auras&ability=461113

even on a 1:39 fight, they still aren’t really using their trinkets very effectively because they don’t need to, the gear they are passively wearing is already enough to cover their fr, the wowhead post is total bait to make people want to view their hydraxian rep guide, the actual impact of these trinkets is barely anything

I guess it was something to talk about in a fairly boring race, the fancy weakaura they made stood out and some people made a big deal of it. Wouldn’t make very good content for wowhead if the interview with nota just said “wear 226 fr and treat it like som molten core”

Can you apply to wowhead and write their guides for them?

no, glad to see i’ve changed your mind though :+1:
