What's new

All things World of Warcraft

I didn't see the link about Metzen. That is somewhat hopeful.

I am just sick and tired of being treated like trash in online games. I usually try harder than I even should to do well and find myself being underappreciated and let down. Maybe that's a personal problem, though. Just trying to gauge myself...

If it feels like work, I shouldn't play, though. That's the bottom line.
Are you in a guild?
 
Hey I found an ok semi-casual raiding guild on Ghostlands.. it's goin on, I got some free time right now so I have been binging wow pretty hard. Just thankful for what I have and where I'm at

My guild is basically dead now. 2 months ago, there would be an average of 10-15 people on all the time. Now for weeks it's just me. I would leave, but I am just milking the guild repairs now lol.
 
I read in the other thread about your low DPS. If it helps, make sure to read up on your class and spec on a site like Icy Veins or Wowhead. They can help with your talent's trees for your spec and rotations as well. I don't go to hardcore into simulation craft like others, but they are a good starting point to help out.
 
With the last patch, Blizzard introduced new Follower Dungeons. This allows you to run dungeons using Ai players. I feel like this takes away from part of the game. Some people love it and say it takes the toxic players out of the game. To me that is just part of the game. The mistakes. I like to know that I am playing with real live people. These are optional of course, and they are a good way to test out being a tank/healer etc. But it's just one example of how Ai is even invading the games that we play on a whole new level.

 
I always love trying out a new spec. Been playing Demonology on my Warlock all afternoon. Starting to get the rotation down now.
 
Well, I finally got the Shackled Ur'zul mount has finally come to an end. I AM FREE! I have been farming this mount weekly for a year plus, maybe longer weekly. Last night after reset, I was like I am not really in the mood, I will do my weekly run later this week, but thought I might as well get it out of the way. Low and behold it drops. What a relief. I always liked this one since it was one of the scarier/messed up mounts in the game.

Ouch, checking Twitter this morning cut even some of the bigger guys at Blizzard out (or they are leaving on their own due to this). I always wondered if Microsoft was going to come in and start cleaning house, and it looks like they are. I don't know if this will be a positive thing or negative thing for the WoW community.
 
@jthock It's been fun running with you the last few nights. I have a hard time doing mythics. It's not that I can't handle it, it's the attitude of the people not allowing you in since your score is not high enough. It's like how can my score be high enough when you don't let me in to run them to raise my score. So I guess I just try to avoid them. I really wish Blizzard would make it like a heroic dungeon where they pair you with random people. This way someone couldn't turn you down. But nonetheless it's been fun lately.

Also, what do you use for you UI and addons? Do you run ElvUi or just the stock UI?
 
Well @jthock I have been busting my butt yesterday. I thought I might as well go for the Mythic title. I think you have to get a score rating of 1500 you told me. I managed in one day raise it to 899 so far. So over halfway there in a day.

On a side note. I spent about 3 hours solid Friday night with a wipe every 5 minutes trying to get the mage tower look for my warlock. I finally completed it. I am pretty proud of that.
 
I managed to get my score up to about 1100 in one day, I don't quite understand how the whole point system works. I guess the higher you run the more the points build up. I also think you need to stay above 10 to get points built up. Overall, it was a great weekend. Got my mount, mage tower outfit, and getting close to Season 3 title.
 
@nodle hey man, very nice. I had a little meltdown yesterday because of people joining M+, messing it up (seemingly on purpose) then leaving the party. It really felt like blizzard had it programmed - to do it on purpose... with the way it played out

I made it so you had to have 1000+ mythic rating, which means you absolutely have to know the fights over the past few months, anyone who has that rating who is playing and has an ilvl over 450 knows how to do it. I also picked 460 ilvl minimum and filled the party. The DPS failed on atol'dazar totems then everyone left after 1 wipe. It was odd feeling and creepy... made me feel bad. Didn't even wanna keep trying.

I have done tons of mythics but sometimes I think they pull that crap on purpose.. it's just too perfect of a 'storm' to be real.

Anyway, I'm glad you got your progress done.. that shackled urzul mount is sick. I have also read that Blizzard has a new president and is moving out people in their corporation. I think they just get stagnant like most other companies. They reach a level of comfortability and don't treat the job like it's more worthwhile than bagging groceries, when in reality that would be a lot of peoples' dream job. I'm always happy to see change in corporations, though. It usually can't get any worse unless they are gonna liquidate the company.

Other than that, I got the emerald dream title by doing all the questline, leveled my priest up that you saw, got his ilvl up for weekly LFR or whatever.. and i'm kinda coasting because of the stupidity in higher level mythic+ stuff.. but you're right, you just have to complete harder keys at a reasonable time to improve your rating. It just happens naturally as you play them, pretty much. I wasn't even trying to grind it and got the title.

Again, I"m kinda just in a mode where I will do some mythics once in a while if the vibe is somewhat good, try to farm a few mounts (i have been trying to get the karazhan one, ashes of al'ar from outlands, onyxia from ony) and got some random mounts that I showed you. Weekly there are a few toys I have been trying to get too. Just feeling like 15 bucks a month isn't really worth the level of service or experience I get when I play anymore. If they brought the price down to $5 a month that might be worth it. Sorry wall of text, rambling

I still like the game when I have low expectations of it, but it has felt weird lately... inconsistent and I still have the lurking suspicion that someone who works there is purposely toying with me.. I guess I should just let it go at that point lol.
 
Mythics can be hit or miss. You have to know all the trash packs and bosses. The affix’s as well. When I first joined one I didn’t know about having to fear or stun some of the things. I have gotten better. You can tell within the first few mobs if it’s going to go well or not. Some teams work well together, others do not, and like you said some people bail and ruin the keys.
