I genuinely can’t either. & What makes it worse, and I hate to jump to this comparison given how bad the expansion is outside of class design, is re-learing wrath on low levels feels EXACTLY how I remember. Like, people aren’t dying in 2 hits, even a green gear / quest geared healer makes a huge, noticable difference in the low brackets. (except vs twinks obviously) - like genuinely everything about the low level pvp experience, which I attribute to the new healer experience, is better. It’s slower literally, as nobody has mobility, slower even more still, as none of the spellbooks are fleshed out.
And the numbers aren’t squished, so things make more logical sense. Or at least, I feel that intuitively. VS on the live game you’ll see an resto shaman in any bracket below 50 doing more damage than a Ele.
You heal someone, their health goes up. You get the feeling that you saved their life because a few seconds later after they terminator walk over they swing their axe and the guy dies.
On live, you log in to a level 14 holy priest. you hop into wsg, and as it turns out you’re actually the strongest character in that BG. Holy fire crits 1shot in the 19 bracket.
It just doesn’t represent the game at all. And fundamentally this is bad I think. The early levels of the game should at least echo what happens at max. On a smaller, cuter scale.
To be fair, there’s a lot of selfishness in the community & people just wanting to be carried while they faceroll as well
People who never defend nodes/call incs/respond to inc requests and just want to mash in the middle of the map all game, ignore enemy healers spamming right in front of them/don’t peel for their own healers, joining BGs with absolute minimum gear without forking out a few gold for gear off the AH that just die in 1 shots, etc etc
and when you call them out the response is always “LOL F YOU I WILL PLAY HOW I WANT LOSER” or similar, then call the team “trash” because they are “near top damage” on the damage chart (because they spent all game facerolling in mid instead of helping with objectives)
every gaming community is not just wow . after awhile you just learn to shrug it off because those ppl dont matter . its rare that ill talk back to them . imo overwatch has it worse then wow , wow is nothing compared to overwatch .
I’m at the jaded part of my healer career at this point where i just make an intentional effort to not heal anyone who asks that now. Idec if it causes a loss anymore
I just assume that if i was a superb player i would be rounded by superb players or at least would see the enemy team as skilless.
If thats not the case then its most likely everyone has commited a mistake that cost us the match which tends to be the only objective answer aside very, very rare situations.
All the rest is far from being objective therefore i dont care about people that dwell into offending each other, they are just useless.
I don’t tell ANYONE in real life that I play WoW. And I deny it to people who think I do. And I tell people who know I do that I quit. I can’t imagine telling people out loud how many PvP kills I have between my dozen or so max level characters. Ego, I’m embarrassed I even play.
Honestly with how bursty the game is right now, I have been less expectant of being healed. They have lots to do. Not a fan of being ignored by healers or hybrid classes that do not throw some green stuff on me when the time is right though.
Do they still have that emote, player calls out for healing? Haven’t seen it for a long time.
DoNT YOU TRASH TALK OR TALK 2 ME GOODBYE I DONT AFFILIATE WITH U HACKERS AND U HAVE BEEN REPORTED TO BLIZZ FOR SETTING ME UP TO BE BAN MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE PAST AND LAST WEEK
Haven’t done any bgs at max level but in the bracket 50-59 there’s quite a bit of toxicity happening. Doesn’t help that a few classes can solo a whole team because of wacky scaling which puts people on an extra edge.
eventually toxic players will end up eating their owns words.
and its mebarassing. thats why i never trash talk to people directly lol. cuz it would be embarassing if i called some1 trash then lost to them in a duel/bg/2s/we
its just a game really. some r better than others. like in real life.
just think about how dooooshy those guys are…
that would be like the big guy in the gym going around telling everybody how weak they are etc… yeah sure hes strong and big… but at the end of the day hes a DOOOOSH and nobody likes him
those r the people that r rage whispering u. major dooooosh nozzles
