    its purely the people that cause the hate, it breeds bad players. its the participation trophy of raiding essentially. on Maiden (just as an example) in a 30 person lfr 20 of them can die in the first minute and the rest will kill the boss before berserk, those players that died now get a...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    but with the release date it doesn't make sense since most of its gated. you'll have 2 normal and 2 heroic clears before the first piece becomes available. I think the first piece is off high command, so should be out in the lfr this week. LFR is fine, if you dont play seriously or just want...

    probably just a blanket 5% damage reduction. until the execute phase on most fights if affli warlocks aren't top they are doing something wrong.

    after doing a full clear of heroic, then a partial clear on my alts i think some of my initial thoughts that Bear > all is a little flawed very few of the fights cater to Bears this tier, a few fights are actually unfriendly to bears like dogs/coven/varithmas. Bears and Monks will have the...

    cleared up to Aggramar before we called it last night. - Varithmas is annoying on heroic and the first fight i died on. DK's/Warriors/Bears have a very large advantage in this fight since they have a cooldown for every misery (spell reflect and AMS completely negate the debuff), as a BrM i...

    yes but it does this at a pretty high dps deficient losing a lego and dying to a stiff breeze. so bringing a bear is > in every situation. even a feral is probably better at this point.

    yea it gimps the WW but its cool that everybody moves faster, but then youre bringing a windwalker which suffers the same downfall as all other monk specs in that it brings absolutely no raid utility that other classes dont do better. WW is mid tier dps with no redeeming abilities that makes...

    I think the directors stated that we wouldn't see warlock until Gotg3 but that could be old news.

    i doubt he'll get all the earth stones, i'd say 3 at best. The time stone *may* be the only thing that can stop him. We don't have Adam Warlock and his other foils so without using the stones against him at some point i don't see how any hero we've introduced will be able to take him on even as...

    Method is probably going double bear on a few and bear/monk on the later fights. garothi - doesn't matter, probably druid/druid dogs - Druid/DK high command - doesn't matter portal keeper - Druid/DK eonar - Druid/Druid (stampeding roar is too strong) imoner - Druid/Druid (stampeding roar...

    i guess some BrM's are saying some of the fights are bugged and are not interacting with stagger correctly (varithmas) where they are taking double the damage they should be. I cannot confirm/deny but lol if its true.

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    Trailer just dropped on Marvel's facebook. looks like Thanos has 2 stones (tesseract and the one from Thor2) and possibly the one from vision. With Thanos attacking Wakanda its probably a pretty good guess the 5th stone is there.

    Initial reviews of Antorus are solid, a bit too much cleave on the fights but most things are manageable. cleared normal on my Rogue and Monk, then we went back to start heroic - one shot the first 3, we'll pick it up there tomorrow. the fights seem interesting, i did notice the damage on...

    i absolutely love tanking on Monk, i dont really have any issues with the recent changes pre-ToS other than several why? questions. most things were fine and just were reworked for no reason, looking at you Blackout strike. things like the max stagger cap is fine (lol at them originally setting...

    thats awesome, it looks like everyone died at the exact right time to give the DK about 20-30seconds of interrupted dps. at the spot the last folks died was right before visions, so he had about 8 seconds of cast time to dps, then there is a bursting dreadflame, followed by a 6-7 second tear...

    I think sub rogue is one of the more fun rotations in the game, its complex and requires you to not screw up but has great results when you pull it off. Most Tanks dont have set rotations (except BrM) since you are using resources to juggle either dps or survivability. warriors have to choose...

    We don't really know how to get the Lego yet it could be just as rare as the heroic guldan mount or it could be a 100% drop. Most tanks will want to wear the Lego over the tank trinket.

    the legos for WW are correct there, the way the 4p bonus interacts with the helm is better than the other options. the jury is still out on ascension.

    Really happy we got the KJ kill...we had 5 of our most mechanically sound dps leave the guild last week, luckily we have a pretty deep bench atm. we recruited a few folks and brought in a few backups. to be honest im really surprised we got the kill, our warlock backup only had 40ish pulls...

    Shadow priest wrecks shit in pvp and on cleave fights (most boss fights) but holy shit is it soul sucking having to do any world quests on them. The world pvp changes are pretty funny, with BrM burst i can 1v4 if they are grouped up and not die (did it last night). for those that dont know why...

    for tanks i would say EN : Druid/Warrior Trial: Druid/Warrior NH: Druid/Monk ToS: Druid/Monk/DK Warrior isn't scaling well so they had a massive drop off in NH, they are still fine for ToS heroic/mythic you just lose a lot of raid utility by not going with a Druid (roar) or a DK (leech) Monk...

    Incorrect, druid has been best tank all expansion. Monk is a close second right after EN. Druid has too much going for it atm easiest to heal and either 1st or 2nd best raid utility.

    Murder on the Orient Express (2017)

    yea i loved everything up to the last 30 minutes or so. cinematography was great, the small amount of humor was good. i felt like the cast could have done a bit more considering the star power they were working with, but overall acting was above average. I am not familiar with Agatha Christie's...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yea thats pretty accurate, most bosses have a shitty ability that ends the raid. Goroth - if you dont soak a meteor its a wipe DI - probably the only one that doesn't Harjatan - just a dps check, if you go to 4 icy phases the raid is usually dead sisters - its completely possible to screw...

    Im really hoping that they stepped it up for Antorus and there is actually a progression in difficulty instead of easy bosses surrounded by dick punch bosses followed by easy bosses. The soaks on almost every boss is a big part of it, but i cant really put my finger on the exact reason tomb...

    yea it goes out quite a bit, but you prioritize it for a few specific knockbacks. the 2nd tank add in phase 2 is the one we usually use movement abilities (blink, goblin boots, disengage) because right after you all get pulled into the tank dispell a bursting dreadflame goes off and it can 1...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Nah its not that it allows people to make a mistake, it allows people to ignore the knockback competely if you trigger the rocket jump right after the orb hits you dont move at all. there are some nasty overlaps that turn into bursting dreadflame, and focused dreadflames right after orbs. if you...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    blink is way more powerful than rocket jump or BE silence (in a raid). You could cheese so many mechanics with blink. In NH Trilliax beam, elisande circles, in tomb mistress tornados, sisters lunar thing, KJ knockback. in all of those goblin boots only made the KJ Knockback trivial, if you look...

    yep ive been getting all my alts through balance of power so i can be a laser bear on my druid. finding an EN group is pretty easy even if you are world quest geared at 880 since that is the level that EN Mythic is tuned for, getting into normal shouldn't be a problem. usually 1 run is enough...
