In blizzard’s own explanation/example that they used, they claimed that the feature is not designed to be strong enough for a raid leader to ask a player to “turn on OBR and survive”. Currently it is in that point that there is a plethora of players that would see a dps gain by using that feature.
You are ignoring the hassle of actually having to chose talents, to learn a spec, and to manage all the abilities/action bars, when they have no interest in that. They are the main audience for that, since OBR is designed to not be a viable choice for competitive content.
Scripting IS against ToS, and none of those addons can do what OBR is doing. Hekili is just showing you the rotation, and GSE cannot use conditional logic (IF statements). OBR is the only tool allowed by TOS that can use conditional logic to change a button you are pressing.
Btw blizzard has already brought back that functionality for many spells that people are spamming (earthquake, rain of fire), in the form of talents. I do not see the problem with allowing others spells to also be used in the same way.
Well, in this particular situation, gameplay considerations /class identity aside, it "kind of"invalidates the talentchoice of the eleshammy and destrolock… Why choose a talent when you can just macro it for the exact same effect?
Now, ofc that can be addressed simply with new talent choices, and again I would personally love to have them again… but on the other hand, do I really want to be instant spamming my flamestrikes under the boss without even looking at him once again, potentially while running @full speed around him during combustion or exectute?? Not really… kind of takes teh fun out of it for me tbh…
That’s called skill expression, it exists in every competitive game. If you’re not good enough, you simply won’t perform at the same level as those who are.
You can’t just jump into an FPS game and expect to aim with an automated tool without facing any kind of penalty.
You keep dodging the arguments that address these questions and instead repeatedly ask them.
Fine. At the same time, it reduces player enjoyment to a whole lot of other people. Why you having your gameplay improved is the only visible effect, but for others “ruined” is just completely ignored?
Now THAT is an assumption, and the weakest I have seen. WoW has proved from time to time that ALL players gravitate towards the point of least resistance. If the OBR can achieve 98%+ percentile performance, the everybody will use it. It will become mandatory. Just the same as META comps are mandatory.
This has literally been proven wrong at the moment OBR went live.
Guess the only difference for you, as a healer, is that those players get the same m+ score as you with fraction of the effort.
Would you not mind that a player would get +30% m+ score by doing the same content as you?
Agree. All you have to do is look up top dps with GSE on youtube, they have been doing it for years which is why Blizzard have brought it in, to reduce the amount of addons people need to get from outside the game.
There are too many “hitting abilities” that just… hit, I’m tired of having to use 40+ keybinds just because some classes have like 7 abilities that just : Deal Damage.
Moving out of the way of stuff, timing a good interupt(mainly in PVP) is the real skill.
The game is already complicated as it is, no need to keep track of resources + cooldowns + resets on cooldowns+ the enemy’s cooldowns defensives etc.
It’s a good direction for wow at this point considering how overdesigned and far gone it is.
Finally I dont have to use keybinds like Shift+4 like im so freaking pianist.
Just give up on the GCD reduction or make it like 10% and we are good.
Let the people who wanna overprepare with rotations from youtube video guides continue having pride in doing the most mechanical(AI replaceable) part of the game.
hope dies first
I mean I really dont wanna buy a 22 button mouse in order to be able to play the game
I’ve had fun playing warcraft 3 with 3 buttons, im sure i’ll have here fun with 20 buttons
I only pug. That is all i do. My guildies are not really interested in M+ nor raids so i have to get mu kicks somwhere. Its M+.
Ive done M+ in a pugging capacity since M+ started. Only PUG’s.
This week ive questioned whether or not i want to continue doing M+ using pugs only.
Before i did not mind the challenge of just using the public with M+. Randoms, no premades.
But these last weeks have been rough. I stay within my skill level and do stuff i know i can do.
What i am seeing is this and i have no interest in healing for them. Group wants a healer for a 7 and they have not even done 0. Alts, sure. But at the same time they have 0 score and now want a healer for a 7. Ive done groups like this before and they were horrible.
I am not wasting my time anymore. Want a healer? NP. If you are doing a 7 show me you did a 6 and i will heal.
I noticed tonight a very sharp shortage of healers and tanks. And this is during peak EU times. 7:15 pm. Tons of single DPS wanting people. Lots of 2’s and groups with no healers.
I wonder why.
Personally i am fed up with people wantign to do crap they are not capable of doing cos, you know, its only a 7. But they fail at every turn and die wasting my time.
So i did not heal tonight nor do any dungeons. I dont care. And i used to do nothign but dungeons all evening long.
Not a single one tonight. I went and finished off some ahieves instead. Then i went to look at the ques and saw the definite healer/tank shortage.
I’m not surprised you’d like OBR. You can’t even formulate your own post and had to ChatGPT it. The biggest giveaway is its excessive use of dash (—) thinking it causes a pause for the readers to sound more dramatic/take in important highlights.
That aside, I’m genuinely glad OBR is helping people with disabilities, and what not. However it automates far too much and has been seeping into game modes it has no place to be in. I’d not be surprised if it gets hit with a major aura nerf in endgame challenging content.
Except you can absolutly do heroic raid and keystone master with obr and barely anyone will notice. On rogues its even better becouse obr have cda penalty but as Rogue you wait for energi regen anyway so penalty here doesnt exist. If you think obr Is just for casuals to do some low level delvs then no. It many cases it actualy boost their dmg and they were doing high m+ keys before that too.
There are even cases of people using it in PvP arena and wining if you put similar skill level oppoment the one using obr will actualy win becouse he doesnt have to focus on dmg rotation.
Then people are playing their class wrong. If you ( people ) really think this one button feature is a solution…anyways, I don’t know why this feature was added, I thought it was added for people with disabilities, but now unskilled people are using it as well ? People really thinking of themselves as good players using this feature, I am sorry, they are not ! It’s just lazy, boring, and all that.
what we need is a cap on it in 8s and up so it gets deactivated.
or if they decide to burden actually playing people with bots remove the 25% GCD penalty and slap a fat 50% dmg reduction on it. So people that don’t belong skill wise in a key will not get into it.
Yeah, that is super easy to spot. However, as a non-native English speaker, I often use ChatGpt to fix my errors in longer messages. The reception is usually better when grammar and spelling is correct. Otherwise you could be mistaken for a 12 year old who doesn’t know better.
But if somebody has a tip how to make ChatGPT stop using those em dashes… I have told it countless times to stop with that (as in “Never ever use an em dash, I command you!”) but it keeps forgetting. Guess it has been trained with too much American English literature.
Edit: What I tell ChatGPT usually is “Fix the errors and leave as is otherwise. No em dashes!”.
