Hoist the Sails, a Plunderstorm Has Arrived!

This new event killed the game for me. It killed the already dead PvP. Now the queue times are even longer.

Anyon eelse having the double-loadingscreen thing when you die?
It kinda annoys one when just trying to do quest → die, tactic.

simply not true. it will happen. but not today

Spot on !!

rep gains are way too low…

would love to grab some nice transmogs and mounts but for a limited time even this will consume all my playtime to even get all the stuff…

Reached renown 40, got a few wins under my belt, my conclucion review of this event is:
Predatory FOMO Garbage, terribly RNG fest and zoomer-focused style gameplay. 0/10

lucky you. i m 15…

What strategy did you follow for this?

Honestly? Bash my head against the wall of RNG and BS-pixels.
I can’t say I did anything besides just playing the game and learn what spells did what + learn the map + learn where elites are.

Thanks, seems to be more or less what I’m doing as well.
At renown 12 now in 4 hours played, so hope to see the end soon of this.

I enjoy PvP. I enjoy farming things. That being said, this is probably one of the WORST “events” ever put into this game in my opinion. I can’t have fun doing this crap cause I feel like I’m being forced to do it due to the limited time. I played it for like an hour, can’t even imagine doing another… yeah, YOU eat your s-!+, Blizz.

I keep trying to play some games at different hours but i’m just too bad at it idk, it’s so often that i die like a few seconds in and not getting any progress at all that it’s really draining to keep doing

Could’ve made the first minute pve so people can at least do the quest and then turn pvp on or something, that’d make the whole experience less painful x)

Play it safe, avoid fights… swoop in when 2 people are fighting each other when they’re both low. 101 for BR games.

Have to say though… this ‘active’ approach to melee attacks [not tab targeting] sucks when the enemy player is so laggy they’re warping all over the place making it incredibly difficult hitting them…

Oh yes, I can’t hit at all on laggy targets, it’s really annoying.

I like the idea, but forced pvp makes this game mode unenjoyable. Add only pve mode next time or info that the rewards will become available to buy in trading posts during the coming year :open_mouth:

I must admit Blizzard has surprised me. After the Hearstone Anniversary Event, they already made the worst possible event possible, and there couldn’t be anything worse.

Oh, boy. I was so wrong!

This should teach us that when they work hard no matter if they already reached the bottom of *** they are capable of digging the ground and reaching a new bottom.

This should be a warning. They will work hard to dig a new bottom in War Within that would make us remember this event as something good compared with what we will receive next. There is no limit to how low they will get.

On the plus side, Blunderstorm gave me the impetus to go ahead and cancel my susbscription. I was naively hoping for something new, and not more forced PVP, which I will never play.

Haven’t played it, probably never will

I did watch a little bit of the video to see who the blonde girls was, then checked out her insta. Not sure if the game will surpass her semi naked cosplay outfits I’m afraid.

Hats off to the nerdling that’s doing the hiring, good way to keep the young lads interested. Wish my manager did soft core por n.

Finally won with a Poking build [ice shard thingy, arcane orb, fae form, repel]… just keeping my distance, eventually hit level 10 in the final part with the remaining at 7-8. Wasn’t ideal at the very end since the electric storm collapsed all the way to the last bit of space but still won leaving the last two to fight it out and i killing the last fella to claim my win. :stuck_out_tongue:
