Horde players have been putting low level priests with homunculi since day one in Ratchet and Booty Bay.
For those unaware, if you cast homunculi on an enemy player, the guards aggro said player and every other enemy player in a 5 yard radius. Your priest get killed too, but compared to their armour repairs, your pants only cost like 10 copper to repair each time it becomes red of durability.
So since day 1, Horde players have been abusing this funny little bug to grief Alliance players in Ratchet and Booty Bay since day 1. Two low level priests have been doing it nonstop in Booty Bay since the dawn of phase 2.
I guess the devs wouldn’t figure out that Alliance players wouldn’t bother as the track to booty bay is far more gruesome for a low level Alliance than it is for a Horde, because all they have to do is swim over to Ratchet and take the ship to booty bay.
But there’s a catch, during the STV event you can ressurect at the spirit near booty bay, so all you had to do was corpse run to there during the event and voila, you can join in on the fun of griefing other players.
It took Blizzard 2 days when I decided to fight fire with fire, have a low level priest stationed in Booty Bay. Two days, 2 days!!! It got fixed, Homunculi are disabled in Booty Bay. A whole phase of Horde non stop using it to grief Alliance players, two days!!!
Meanwhile Horde can still lure Ada Gelhardt to Grom’gol base camp, since she can’t die, she’s just going to fight the guards till reset day, making it unable for Paladins to get their rune of Martyrdom. This bug still hasn’t been fixed till this day and it’s an easy way for Horde to level up their weapon skills.
So funny how something that negatively affects Horde players gets instantly fixed =).
I still had my fun for two days. It was so good to recognise certain Horde players griefing and ganking other low levels and people would contact me to kill them out of revenge. Sometimes you could wipe half a raid of Horde going into Gnomeregan.
Alliance gets negatively affected by something? We’re supposed to deal with it. Horde however, are so precious and must be safeguarded and protected at all costs =). So much for the “edgy” faction.
I got killed by a 41 dwarf priest as lvl 50 warrior, he put homunculi and dots on me and I could never get close for a charge or any gap closer, could not lose combat to mount and close the gap, could not kill the homunculi in time even with sweeping strikes because of lack of rage as I still got the Gnomeregan 2h axe on it.
Not sure why you complain, as far as I see it, the alliance is still “abusing” that spell in other ways. At times they were on ratchet bank roof, other times on top of walls in STV.
And speaking of PvP fairness, the alliance always had the upper hand there, even in BGs where maps are made to benefit alliance. Ashenvale, Alterac Valley and so on. WSG and AB are also made to benefit alliance since at this point we got no means to remove bubbles off paladins and in BGs with 5+ paladins that bubble, the tide changes in alliance favor.
At the same time I didn’t see horde complaining about having to run for days to make the sleeping/cozy bag quest, and when reaching the Loch Modan water Dam getting trolled by alliance priest mind controlling and throwing them down over and over.
Horde players start doing it, Alliance players pick up on it and start doing it in retaliation. It’s the exact same story with the room right above the Booty Bay inn. Horde players always find new creative ways to grief, so don’t complain if Alliance players start doing it in return.
You literally have shamans being good at all 3 roles at once while paladins can’t even heal themselves without using half their mana bar. Nice instant cast heals that barely cost any mana by the way. What an actual joke thinking bubble is superior to that.
Skill issue, sure. I am sure you have played warrior a lot to speak about that.
I understand your need to QQ about it, but your frustration is not funded. You live in a different, parallel universe, won’t even entertain the other 2 delusional points since most likely the only reason you play alliance in the first place is to have all those perks over the people playing horde.
I have played almost every single class at 60 throughout my time playing classic, I even had warrior as my PvP main in TBC, so yes I have played it a lot, especially in PvP.
You are the one complaining about things not based in reality, and I gave the counterarguments to it, can’t be more simple.
You give no counterarguments because you have none, just delusion. What perks? Not having orc stun resist? Berserk? Will of the Forsaken to get out of most CC’s? A non interruptible AoE stun? Not having shamans, the class that’s currently good at everything at once? You literally have all the racials that are more beneficial for PvP, and the exclusive class that’s better than the Alliance one, if you can’t see that you are either being delusional or disingenuous. The reason I don’t play horde is quite simple, it’s because I don’t like being on the side of the evil, ugly beast races with players who are either griefers or mouth breathers like you.
Just said I played them at 60 as well, but mained it in TBC for pvp, that means I played it in classic as an alt, can you not read? Oh what am I saying, you’re a warrior main, that’s too high of an expectation. Also the SoD excuse is a poor one, warriors are still pumping if you aren’t bad.
Except I did, just because I don’t main a warrior in Sod doesn’t mean I havent tried it. Not very hard to come that conclusion. When I talk about warriors doing well, I’m talking about competent ones, not people like you. Keep saying your nonsense dismissal instead of actually coming up with a good point though, unless you want to prove to me that you actually do have a brain.
Why you so mad ?
I only make fun of you delusions, you make some really funny affirmations and try to make your opinions sound like they are actual facts. Like the fact that “Horde players started doing first” - the proof is your “trust me bro” source. You even went as far as judging my “skill” or lack thereof based on a different game mode that had less than half the skills it does now for every class without discrimination.
Now all I want to say is sorry, but not feeling sorry for making fun of you. I would agree with you on one thing, but we’d both end up being wrong.
That’s right because the Horde is more important overall. Only people still playing alliance these days are out-aged boomers (40+) who are out of touch and not really the target market, sorry to say but that’s just the truth.
But you have given no actual counter argument at any point lol, you just say “ur wrong haha” and nothing else, so you haven’t actually said anything of value here.
The proof is personal experience and seeing it happen over and over again, and if you think that’s not valid, then neither is your personal experience in terms of claiming that warriors suck.
Yes because you died to a level 41 because you “couldn’t close the gap”, so use a speed pot, it’s really not that hard to come to that conclusion. Maybe don’t use that as an argument to claim warriors as a whole are bad either if you don’t want to be judged for your skill, and maybe take some responsibility for your own actions instead of coping and blaming something else.
Brother you have done nothing but show how bad you are at this game while trying to blame everything else except your own lack of skill, it’s actually embarassing lmfao. I would have actually felt bad for you if you weren’t so confidently wrong while being snide about it. Go buy some speed pots and get good, is my final advice to you.
That’s exactly where your delusion kicks in. Is hard to give solid arguments to fictional claims based and backed up by no real, hard evidence. If you would call it your personal opinion I would respect that, but you are trying to claim they are actual facts.
Thanks to that I can make fun of you for it.
So you saw it happening multiple times and just come to the conclusion that it must be the horde that started doing it. That is still an opinion and not a solid fact. It could just as well be fictional, wishful thinking and your need of blaming others. You then come to this forum and complain over unfairness without providing any proof.
Your personal opinion doesn’t make it a fact, especially since you don’t have anyone backing you up.
You see, the reason I’ve mentioned it, is because it shows lack of fairness. The level 40 items grant you hit rating, making it easy to attack a level 50. The amount of damage from DoTs is insane if you have the PvE gear from phase2, if you combine that with the runes from phase3 which are easily accessible by priests at lower level you got yourself a killing machine. (I am playing priest myself so trying to deny it would be futile).
If you’ve played warrior yourself in SoD you would realize how stupid it sounds when you mention swiftness potions, because if you don’t chug healing potions early, or a rage potion = you are dead before you can even land an actual yellow attack, as you hopefully can imagine how much rage you generate off your white dmg being absorbed by priest’s shield or while priest goes into dispersion. That is if you can close the gap at all.
There are hundred of other posts from other warriors complaining about this, about warrior mainly getting useless PvE runes for tanking or obsolete, almost 0 self-healing ones both in last phase as well as in this one.
We are not referring to warrior PvP overall, because in group PvP, backed-up by a healer the warrior can still outpreform others. We are talking strictly about its 1v1 capability.
While priest got increased DoT damage, the warriors got a stance that gives a little 10% when you have a shield equipped.
I am sure you’ve checked the warrior runes list before actually speaking about it, and took into consideration the horrible, almost non existent rage generation in PvP with absorbs, having priests dodge and parry multiple times over that little rage you may have.
All I did was make fun of you for claiming fiction as being facts. You talk about warrior without even knowing the class in the current game mode, you make claims over a certain faction being to blame, without any proof, you claim special treatment towards a faction because you are a frustrated little kid that people are making fun of over the internet.
I can see how many people try to sarcastically agree with your fiction here and that gives me even more conviction knowing you are delusional. It would be like me claiming that alliance started killing people on the shared faction boats and they are granted special treatment, because if the horde is now attacking the alliance they get killed by the guards, maybe there were not guards when alliance doing it!. Hey! You would have to trust me, because it was my personal experience and that makes me right.
When I speak about warrior, I do it not only based on my opinion, but on the runes introduced for it in the game, over the lack of rage, over the lack of balancing in PvP.
Is funny you cannot see the difference between fictional opinions and fact based opinions. I would not come to forums starting to argue over a class I’m not playing in SoD, but used to play in a somewhat balanced TBC or later expansion, I would argue over one of the 5 classes I’m playing, experienced and have knowledge about in its current state, shape or form.
Not sure why I even try to explain it to you, you are free to go back to making yourself to be that fool everyone is laughing at over internet for crying over fictional things while waiting for people to agree with you.
For closing, thank you for the opportunity to practice my English a bit, with it being my 3rd language I would like to apologize for the grammar mistakes, the walls of text are a challenge at times.
As a 41yo i feel offended :D. Pretty sure i am millenial or Xennial in my case. My parents are boomers.
But…i agree. SoD is designed for Zoomers. Phase after phase devs are showing that more and more. I am just waiting for the proper implementation of M+ in p4 for the circle to be complete.
