You're going to run in to your fair share of martians and recently thawed cavemen that's for sure. You picked now to start playing WoW? Why. But it's part of the charm as well.

My fan theory for over a decade was that the real villain of the series is Danny. She was terrible at everything and would eventually land in Westeros and torch the whole continent. The Others are the natural counterbalance and low key the heroes we deserve. I was not expecting Danny to be full...

See, if the dragon had went claw/claw/bite/wing buffet/wing buffet/tail slap that wall would definitely had been toast.

It passes the time just the same. It wasn't just ice breath. It was evil ice breath. That means it had the qualities of Evil and Cold. The Wall was only resistant versus Cold and for your damage reduction to factor in you need to have DR for each keyword. It's been a while but I'm pretty...

Wait until the big reveal where The Night King isn't even the villain but the real villain is the woman he fell for and she's like 100000x more badass and the final confrontation of the show is between Danny and The Other (see, people thought the ice guys were the Others but they aren't there's...

In the books I figure Sam will eventually blow the horn he found while ranging and that brings the wall down. It will not be as cool as the dracoliche.

Burning Affliction 3 on Druids is great. Their highest level dot in Classic is I think level 40 making BA2 exactly as beneficial. It's not really that big of a deal though. One of the selling points of these servers is that you get to stuff a character with more loot than would ever have been...

It's so much easier to just purge all life on the way to Nagafen then to give seventy people a trivial assignment and expect no one to fuck it up.

Summer 2019 so like 7-9 months away. Honestly, it'll be here before you know it once Christmas is over.

I know it isn't Classic but I think they could staple on arenas and have it be a net positive. The PvP folk would really like that shit.

Alright, so like a year ago I installed PoE, played for twenty minutes, didn't have any idea what I was doing, and quit. I'm reinstalling it right now. What do I do?

Step one is to hire a lawyer to write a stern letter. It's not very expensive (relatively) and has a high chance of success. If it doesn't work you're established your claim and a history of the steps you have undertaken to attempt to resolve the issue.

My personal guess is that once he was part of the way through the Winds of Winter he realized there was no way he was going to be able to conclude the series (and have it meet his standards) with just the final two books. He also doesn't want to write more than two books. He then convinced...

Build me 1000 ships! Poof, wood pulled out of Ironborne ass, ships done, beats existing fleet to location, stomps over everyone in every encounter. Any issues I have with the later episodes of the series I blame on them just plain running out of time. They had to unlock fast travel to finish...

I unsubscribed as well. In its current state it felt like the game was playing me more than I was playing it. If a game requires a substantial time investment I'm fine with that but I despise being managed. So much of the game's content revolves around thinly veiled mechanisms designed to get me...

I reread the entire series over the summer and as I had always planned I skipped 100% of Danny's chapters from every book and all of Tirion's chapters in the final book. It made the whole thing a breeze.

It's just like the books!

As significant as the passing of Walt Disney.

Eight or so I think? Some PvP some PvE. I don't think I have the heart to play through vanilla PvP again. I did it once in era to say I climbed that mountain but getting random exploded by max level rogues wasn't compelling game play.

I propose that the primary objective be to get as many folk and related folk onto the same server first. People have their own complicated affiliations making guild planning difficult but if everyone is mostly together that allows maximum options going forward for people to play with and against...

I've only done one run and even with the final bits of exp from the final encounters I didn't even hit 21. Does the game just tend to cap out around there or did you guys get to 21, 22, etc?

I very much hope Classic outpaces whatever internal estimates Blizzard has, even the most optimistic ones, so they have to face up to the indisputable proof that they've been on the wrong track and have been for a while. "Let's just branch off with an entirely new expansion and time line"...

I haven't had a chance to do it but I thought he'd be cool with Demon and Torturer in combination with Fire/Poison damage. Just spew awful flaming death everywhere that you also happen to benefit from.

I've played on and off for a long time but I've hurt myself pretty badly by playing in an unfocused manner. Instead of having a reasonable stable of available characters that I've been assembling for the last decade I've got a sea of abandoned characters from different eras spread across a dozen...

When I played last they didn't each have all the features of the other.

Living on the Edge is pretty good if you have anyone with enough Necromancy. Also related the Necromancy passive won't hurt him either and can heal for a ton if he's set up for dealing damage. edit - if you have an archer a direct shot with a poisoned arrow can do a lot

Look, if you want welfare epics you go jerk off in a Warfront or LFR like God intended.

It's really, really cool but it doesn't feel connected to the second half of the series. I really liked the creepy ending of her funeral where we see her standing there as well but it too just doesn't feel all that connected in tone with what we get in the conclusion.

It's still a long ways off but I'm pretty excited about WoW Classic. I'll be playing but honestly the game itself is kinda whatever. What I'm all giddy about is seeing how the community tackles it. I've played on a number of Everquest progression servers over the years and I can't wait to see...

I know what the problem is. The problem is I'm pugging. If I want to do more than getting my basic weekly chest that's on me to improve my score and seek out like-minded individuals.

As good a mantra for life (and gimmick mmo servers) as any.

I've tried minimizing the timer to just focus on what I'm doing and every time someone dies it pops right back up. HEY DID YOU WANT TO SEE THE TIME NOW LET ME SHOW YOU THE TIME. Being not allowed to keep the fucking thing minimized makes me irrationally angry in a way far beyond people just...

Running into the Grievous affix for the first time I immediately found it to be terribly frustrating for that reason. People weren't willing to give me time to heal stacks and weren't willing to give me time to drink for the privilege of entering fights with five stacks of Grievous and myself...

Raider IO is a website that takes the data from the weekly Mythic+ leaderboards, assigns scores to everything, and then gives each player a composite score based on their performance. You do X dungeon with Y affixes in Z time and you get a score for that dungeon. Add up your score for each...

Retribution Paladins are the price you pay for Paladins.

I try and use it and the tanks just don't cooperate. I'm sure that actual coordinated players try and take advantage of all of their abilities but pugging it has just never worked out for me. It makes me genuinely angry to be somewhere like Atal'Dazer and being forced to fucking ride my...

It drives me crazy to be in a dungeon where I could take advantage of Shackle Undead and no one will let me even in a goddamn Mythic+. I hate that it's just the standard to tank whatever the pack is in its entirety.

Does it play a soft little error sound effect?

Everquest has had a few different "eras" of classic servers over the last ten years or so and yes, at least a couple of them were a mess for at least some part of their life cycle. They've been fairly grounded for a while now though. Most of the real bullocks has been weeded out.

I'm in the same boat. I played a couple days on Phinny when it was released and later Coirnav and they were both beyond what I was willing to tolerate. I did the TLP thing on Sleeper, Ragefire, Lockjaw, and Agnarr and Agnarr is my personal limit. Anything slower than that and I just can't finish it.
