Thats a thoughtful comment and i really appreciate it. I think you are right.
It just annoyes me that 90% of the internet consists of memes nowadays. Reddit is memes and fluff only. This forum is pretty much the same. There are 2000 comments on a highelf or vulpera post and noone seems to care about the core system that actually made this game what it is.
And if someone says something about these things, the memers try to make you sound stupid.
Tiktok tells a lot about our times/generation/degenerates.
It blows my mind how some people like the OP cannot stop being delusional about blizz being able to deliver normal gameplay. When everyone have experienced for years they cannot execute that properly.
Why are some people so delusional.
I really canât understand itâŚ
That said, i do agree with OP about memeâs. They suck and should just be removed in general. They are exactly whats wrong with humans on the internet in definition.
I dont mind posting on a low level char if it adds something to a discussion. Posting a meme/gif doenst add any value.
It would made a big difference if you are saying: "I dont like borrowed power, but⌠" or whatever
Thats something I can reply to.
Its called hope =)
But I know what you mean. It definitly is delusional if you are still hoping but I wont give up yet. Like many big people of the community. They write feedback and try to communicate their opinion with blizzard.
I would say, thats not the point. But of course its something different if you are playing yourself.
For now Im mainly talking about dps meters and how the damage sources are split up. And thats something you can meassure. Damage sources look like the beginning of the corruption system. where your main damage source was a passive procâŚ
I know that damage was more even split between abilities in the past. It definitly got worse over time. With corruptions they totally shot over the top when it comes to damage distribution.
Thats my reaction to your rude reaction. Actions have consequenses. Your post wasnt nice. So you get a appropriate response. Im a nice person, but I stand up for myself if someone is not nice
the issue is, damage break downs dont depict the Rotation or priority list of a class.
Its for example saying a Arms warriors biggest damage comes from its bleeds, while systematically is actually false. as Its using ur skill properly which produces that bleed damage to begin with.
I feel frost mage is likely a class which we can expect this more from however⌠as in PvE wise it has always been that way for that specc.
I can still enjoy the game and have fun. Its still the best mmorpg on the market. I just wish they would tweak certain things that are a problem for some time now. And I know Im not the only one who thinks that way. There are many dedicated community members who try to improve the game because they love it.
And the more people who express their concerns, the higher the chance they will eventually listen and become aware.
Many things have improved over the years because people were talking about it.
If there werent so many people complaining about RNG and the chest of disapointment, we would still have the exact same system in shadowlands.
But people stood up and told them, the system sucks. So they changed it. Its took a long time for them to realized, but it happend.
So iâve gone back to top rankings in MoP (a Time where people proclaim it was Super skilled etc etc)
to a ST Fight (Sha of Pride) to look at the damage break down⌠the main spell was still between 25% and 35% of the overall Damage done while most other abilities are 10% or lowerâŚ
World of Logs⌠holds all the orginal Parses from Waaay back :P⌠u can go through every expansion⌠its the same. DPS Breakdowns always will Make it look 1 button centric, mainly because Damage breakdowns dont exactly display method just a List of abilities.
considering this games foundation was on Frost mages Spamming ice bolt non stop⌠i dunno what u expect.
Try to spam only one ability and tell me how it works out.
even for arcane mage
Not to mention, that fine - sure my top damage ability is âwhack him with a rubber⌠hammerâ, this is most likely due to my spec being akin to managing gears in order to empower Cooldowns and manage my survivability and movement, not due to me having only the said hammer.
I like arcane for what it is, as the rotation is deceptively simple.
But if you want to crank out the big booms and keep on doing them, you need a lot of insight. Something I currently lack and get myself oom within 40 secs.
Spend 5 minutes alone with a dummy and youâll get that âburn 100%-0, evocation, hover at around 70% until CDs are ready, then burn againâ. Only thing you really need apart from correct sequence of CD activation is watching your mana bar & charges. And NOT using the proc when CDs are on, because itâs worse than filler, which I find The Dumbest Spec Feature of the Expansion.
I meant that part in which Arcane Blast deals like 90% or more of your output because Missiles canât kill a fly, Barrage is conserve-only wet noodle, and all damage buffs went into Blast. This is very bad design because 1 button rotations are not fun and caster should never find waiting 3 seconds better than casting a spell. Which currently is the case.
