I get that we’re all in a hurry to get things done, but take a sec before the boss before pulling. I can’t imagine anyone but the tank enjoying this style of play. Take trash out of heroics or put an artificial pause that stops bosses becoming active unless the active trash is down. If someone told me to play this game for the first time and this was my first experience, I’d never come back.
The only reason I’m doing the 5 a week quest is for the gear on my alts, but it’s so bad in 8 out of 10 runs, that I’m done with it. I’d rather see the trash removed at this point.
Like…why wouldn’t you? Especially if the tank is well geared as most cases of this that happen they are. Its quick, efficient, and easy as all get out.
You wanna stop and take in the views when you’re doing a dungeon or do you wanna get in, do what you gotta do and get out?
Why wouldn’t you try to be as quick and efficient as possible. Thats just silly.
As for new players, I’d wager its the opposite, if i was new i’d be like, wow look what these dudes can do with gear and skill, someday i’ll do that too. Idk any single pug that has ever hated being quick and painless in a run lol. IF they do they’re probably just super casual caseys
I literally just gear up in nothing but speed enchanted gear and other boosts to just keep up and barrel to each boss. Dont even bother attacking it is just nuts.
Not at all. But if I want to run like a maniac, I’ll run M+. Heroics have turned into this zerg-fest that requires DPS and healers to not stop for even a split second. Why would I want to do that for an hour+ to get 5 heroics done when it is BARELY faster than setting a pace?
I can do 160k dps on 6 targets. (Cleave training dummies) My ilvl is 424. Not even close to the best.
In a Heroic Ruby Sanctum last night, with the tanking pulling all the mobs too the boss I was doing almost 200k dps. They werent coming anywhere near killing anybody either. We did the entire thing in like 10 minutes. It was awesome.
If you get into a group that can pull this off let them go for it. Its the fastest/easiest dungeon run you’re gonna get.
WHY WOULDNT YOU? If you gotta do 5 and you get 5 tanks who pull like this and the group can handle it you’ll probably be done in under 30 minutes depending on the dungeon lol, IF THAT.
Running my 5 heroics for the 415 off-spec piece and reputation as fast as I can. My prot set and gear can easily survive tanking 30 mobs with the boss while doing more dps than everyone else combined. Just sit back and enjoy the carry.
This tank is strong, confident, and powerful. Boss, I tell you, I’d hate to see you and Michelle Obama arm wrestle, but I wouldn’t be able take my eyes off of it, either.
I’m talking about the intensity of M+ where you are locked in for the timer. I run heroics for the extra gear lately and to relax from M+ on alts and its a stress fest for me.
the same way some dps want to see what is the biggest possible output
and healers not minding groups taking big mechs to the face to push their output (see magmorax)
tanks also sometimes want to push their capabilities to the max to see how much is too much, and if our hp aint going less than 50%, you bet your **** we will keep pulling, we want to see how far we can go with our own tanking ‘output’, sometimes were also just trying to beat out last runs time, if I did it in 8 minutes, I will try for 7. Any person with an ounce of competitiveness or will to always do better should understand.
There aren’t nearly enough people who would actually do these dungeons on their own merits, so Blizzard tries to bribe the rest of the playerbase into carrying people, instead.
The people there have nothing to gain, except by completing the dungeon (and therefore acquiring the bribe) as quickly as possible.
This always happens when everyone way outgears heroics. Especially if there’s a weekly or whatever to do, I always appreciated when it can get done as fast as possible. Nothing new! (and I haven’t even bothered doing heroics this time around)
