    The Flash

    Holy fuck I had no idea that was Tom Felton. Well of COURSE we are meant to think that Malfoy would be the evil Dr. Alchemy...so that means its probably a red herring, although they have never shied away from the blatantly obvious before on these Arrowverse shows.

    The Flash

    Well that was a nice way to put the time travel genie back in the bottle... although I honestly have to wonder why Rip Hunter and crew haven't gotten involved with all this since that is their main thing.

    Virtual Reality

    I'm not quite following why VR has to equate motion-controller. Sure for any title which is first person VR it makes sense to have motion control be in the mix, but it hardly seems necessary. Afterall we've been playing first person games for ages using just a controller or keyboard/mouse so I...

    It does seem odd that with 12 different apparently weekly World Bosses that we'd get Jim two weeks in a row so early in the expansion.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I kind of wonder what the next major iteration on the "raiding" dynamic will be. The first generation (EQ obviously but also DAOC etc.) was all about just getting a ton of people together and capable of taking down a monster. The mechanics were incredibly basic and had to do more with...

    I know they have tried to actively move away from the "smart healing" that reached a peak during the MoP era, but does it seem to anyone else like the few auto-targeted heals are noticeably reduced in effective targeting? I was running some dungeons on my Mistweaver this past weekend and I...

    Westworld

    Could be that whoever is helping him (nascent AI?) doesn't have the means to communicate in any normal way and thus has constructed this ARG as a means to reach out? I mean it seems like a stretch, but internal betrayal / human weakness undermining the system is a cornerstone of Michael...

    It is a bit odd that the "secondary stats" have become primary with Legion. Fire mages stacking Crit, Windwalker monks and Arms Warriors etc. stacking Mastery etc. Before people may have enchanted / gemmed to make sure they were getting the maximum from the secondary stat as appropriate, but...

    Westworld

    I got the feeling he's a corporate spy sent there to uncover exactly what the "real reason" for the Host technology is and his means of accessing said information is via a backdoor set up by someone within the park as an ARG. My bet is on the story editor guy because he seems like a weasel.

    Westworld

    In the original it was a different planet and there we're several other "world's" at the theme Park, which the whole issue spreads to by the third act. They allude to aspects of this in talking about earlier roles for the hosts which aren't all WildWest themed I'm sure that the hidden agenda...

    Hmmmm. I actually started with Thunderbluff on my main and found it rather fun. Then again as a gnome Tauren are fairly exotic so that was a nice change. I'm saving it for last on my Monk.

    I am just levelling my Monk now (holy christ WW is nuts) and its enjoyable but I'm putting some distance between levelling my mage and now doing this and making sure to take it in small doses. This seems to be working well as it has been long enough for some of the sidequests to feel...

    I still do not have, nor have I seen anyone get, a legendary drop. This will be the height of hilarity in ~9 days when my Legends of the Tirisgarde finishes and I can equip a second Legendary before getting a first one.

    I am guessing they are targeting 7.1 to come out sooner rather than later, hence moving up the LFR versions of Emerald Nightmare by a week. They might have, correctly, realized that locking the end of Good Suramaritan behind a Xavius kill meant that loads of people (casuals and alts) would not...

    I have a feeling that mana will be made relevant again come 7.1 since they said they would be continuing the Suramar storyline. On the subject of Withered Training: Am I the only person who killed Dro using Thalyssra's shield? I just ran up to him and let him kick my ass until I "die" the...

    On the subject of healers, I've been futzing with my Monk (Mistweaver) and am still getting used to the changes since Pandaria with Mistweaver as I really had not played him at all during WoD. I'm okay with the "cast something to start soothing mist" part of the situation even though I really...

    I'm at exalted with Nightfallen now and just stuck behind the Xavius step to finish off Good Suramaritan. Since the LFR version of Xavius isn't open for another month I tried joining a Normal raid, but that went poorly. I think part of the problem with the spec guides / sims is that they...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I think the part that bugs people the most about the "In Nightmares" and "Essence of Power" is that it was never advertised as a cosmetic-only reward. The quest itself, which already has a lot of parts, talks nothing about "You need to werk gurl, come on up and we gonna make dat shit ovah" but...

    Well this is SUPER shitty. They decided today, the day that the first wing of LFR opens, to announce that you can't get quest items in LFR. So that means being locked out of both the artifact quest AND flight because you can't complete "Good Suramaritan" without killing Xavius. Apparently...

    I would consider myself a hardcore casual in that I've only run Mythic from the PUG-finder (although one of the Old Skool Talisman guys from 1999 just got his Paladin tank to Mythic-ready status last night) and done the WQs that seemed the most worthwhile / fun and I'm revered with everyone...

    I think this is something that they have never really considered owing to how different specs were really dependent on different gear in the past. Now that we are well into the era where your armor has different stats and even set bonuses based on what spec you are currently in rather than...

    Star Wars Rebels

    good to see that Thrawn is being written as a man who plays the long game. I really do see a broader focus from this and the new series of movies on Balance within the Force as the Jedi and Sith are just too extreme and polarized to be healthy

    I can't imagine that anyone playing a Demon Hunter is truly surprised that they a significant adjustment.

    According to the simulator I am better geared for Arcane than I am Fire... which makes sense given that I have been playing Arcane. At least it means I can't just switch specs and expect a miracle to improve my dps

    I figured that Surrender to Madness was the sort of thing that was only truly useful in either desperation situations as a hail-Mary, or in the hands of someone who could manage to ride the razors edge for a very long time. No idea how you manage to properly balance such a thing unless you...

    'Fires of Heaven' seems to always roll as Warforged/Titanforged. The only times I've gotten it as a blue item was from a WQ-turnin bag. As a result my Fire weapon is a much higher ilevel than my Arcane which doesn't help the "Fire is better" situation at all.

    What are the particular boss fights in EN that would showcase single target or multi-target DPS comparisons? I doubt there is a stitches equivalent, but there might be more refined ways to analyze things even with the small sampling available to date.

    The addition of the Mythic+ puts me in an odd quandary. We had people come back for the expansion, but very few (<15) and thus in the evening it is rare to have more than 3 people online at a time. We will never again be a guild that can raid, but do we try and recruit just to hit a critical...

    I've gotten several hundred k against packs of trash and then against a boss up to 180k+, did 193k on a couple of bosses but in cases where my ramp-up gets ruined by forced movement mechanics it drops to 150k if its a fight that only lasts a minute or two. Its not crazy good, but its also not bad.
