omg we're still talking about world buffs?
entering a raid zone or within 100ft of an outdoor world boss dispells any and all buffs, problem solved. you can have as many gay retarded shit buffs you want every time 100 little timmies pick 100 peaceblooms the whole server can get "dildo up the ass" world buff + 2000 to attack and it doesn't matter cus it can never impact raids
boons are just a way to snapshot the cock you are sucking now, tuck it away behind your ear so you can finish sucking it later, they're a gayer solution to the original gay problem and you should be ashamed of yourself for defending them
Boons alleviate many of the problems associated with PVP griefing of collecting buffs, raid logging your character to hold buffs, etc.
This game is 20ish years old. What is this argument even? Just angry people being angry? Nobody likes fucking getting world buffs, nobody ever fucking did. Some don't even like having and using world buffs - I get the disparity and issues on both sides. While you're out here telling me I should be ashamed of myself for defending boons I'm just happy I can play my fucking character after getting buffs, get buffs with less a hassle etc.
I actually enjoy vanilla. Kind of. I have a theory I'm in hell and I'm only really able to play games I played before I was sent to hell but that's for another post. I've been playing this shit for far too long now.
Eat shit for telling me I should be ashamed about a direct fix to a lot of my problems associated with world buffs:
1. I get to play my character before, after, and during getting world buffs. Couldn't do this before boons.
2. I can choose to boon and unboon at any time and save or not save my world buffs on my time. Not possible without boons.
3. Retards like Tinyviolin, if I'm on a pvp server, can only take my songflower as I'm getting it with a small window of possibility, all my other buffs are booned. If I'm killed while getting songflower, all my other buffs are booned and saved. Giant time saver if you're on a PVP server.
4. Selective unbooning and booning on specific bosses increasing strength of the raid for progression purposes. Couldn't do this before boons. You either had buffs or you didn't. Time saver on progression fights, etc. This also works for the inverse purpose.
5. The list goes on. These are all time savers.
If your issue is with world buffs themselves as a feature in Vanilla, why would this ever go away? It didn't even go away in SoM or SoD where they were paying some attention.
You guys just want to hate blizzard because LUL SMALL INDIE Company. It's a fucking video game. You're too angry and retarded to even know what's good for a game and I'm over here humoring you with a response like oh jeez sally If I could just tell them about the boon feature they would just --no. No. You're just people that
actually dont care and just want to complain. You're not into WoW anymore and
you've ascended to gaggle of fucking complainers land.
Blizzard isn't going to remove a core feature of their vanilla experience (world buffs) - instead, they made it easier for people with the boons. They made it more flexible. If you don't like the game because it has wbuffs,
wait until TBC or don't play.
I'd say go to an emu server but I'm pretty sure Turtlewow and all those emu servers in fact have world buffs too, and they DONT have boons so enjoy raid logging, getting griefed, etc.
A mechanic that makes world buffs much easier to collect on multiple fronts is great for me, but I'm not tinyviolin with twenty screens out there dispelling people in Felwood for fun.
Did you know they also let us have no debuff / buff limit and dual spec in anniversary realms too? Did you know boons only cost 1g for anniversary realms?
There are different quality of life improvements at hand here.
