Remember when Heigan was at or near the peak of raid participation and awareness? That was actually somewhat fun because most retards would figure it out eventually.

Ironically the random 3 people getting ported to the room with the eye stalks between Heigan and Loatheb (which they removed from the encounter for Wrath Naxx) probably killed the most people. But in the end it always felt like there was 5-10 of us having to slow kill Heigan the last couple %.

I still have no idea how people were so f'n retarded with that encounter. But it's the price you pay cause Retard Johnny was f'n hilarious at least.

I'm genuinely surprised this 100% increased rep buff counts towards paragon rep and doesn't just stop at exalted. The way they worded it made it seem like it stopped at exalted.

So if any of you nerds still looking for mounts you won't get from legion now is the time. 3k rep per emissary.

DH really is idiot proof, and playing without double jump makes me feel like I'm back in gym class in highschool again being the only white kid and picked last for basketball

like yeah it's doable but why bother

DH is idiot proof and also really fun to play.

I don't like the tanking reliance on the soul scraps or w/e they're called because you can get absolutely fucked by encounters in narrow halls or with weird geometry where they get placed right next to you and repositioning eats them all so you can't use them on your skills.

I will say on the topic of healing DH tanks.. they're my least favorite. I never know when they're actually in danger or not lol they're just full hp or 10% hp and there is no inbetween.

But admittedly I haven't ran with that many dh tanks lately.

It's the contrast that made me shy away from the class. I'd be doing Priest or Shaman things and then then mess around on a Demon Hunter and have to put it right back down. "Yeah, if I get used to this I'm never going to be able to play anything else."

Levitate and Angelic Feather are like Playboy versus the premium PornHub subscription that is the Demon Hunter.

Yeah, and our general level of squishiness outside of meta and the 4-6 seconds of downtime between our demon spikes was really dumb. If spikes were down, I was asking for snares so I could kite for a bit.

I stopped playing before the raid after Uldir came out and they had buffed warriors, but my DK tank was leaps and bounds better at everything than my DH except mobility. But grip was so broken for breaking uninterruptible mechanics and getting mobs out of affix shit.

The thing about Vengeance is Sigils are broken AF. So if they ever give Vengeance a real tanking kit they will be as broken as DKs were. Maybe even more so.

An AE 6 second blanket silence on a 1 minute CD (I think you can even lower it more than that? been a while) is just lulzy. And then you can follow it up with a horrify AE.

Almost as good as OG WotLK DnD.

BrM is so much fun to tank with in raids but for m+ i really enjoy the DH. both vengeance builds are fun feed/gluttony and fracture/SB, gluttony with VoP gives you some crazy meta uptime.

them adding demonic to vengeance and fel devastation baseline looks really fun im shadowlands. i may end up mainswapping if WW doesnt get a few more tweaks.

changing how touch of death works was a step in the right direction.

Scarlet Crusade seems to be ramping up again for prepatch stuff, with quite a lot of interesting possible outcomes

20 jobless euro fags needing to play the game at an absolutely professional level

That's hilarious. The best clans in World of Tanks are all from countries with liberal unemployment benefits. They get free rent and do digital panhandling on Twitch for beer and Cheetos money. These people are going to be in for a rude shock when they are pushing 40 and have no viewers left and no job skills.

The funny thing is they all think they are elite hot shit, but the reality is pretty grim.

Granted, most high end streamers are around 20-28 right now. So another 20 years and the landscape will have dramatically changed again. In 2000, I dont know if they existed or not, but I sure as hell didnt know about any "streamers." I dont think my internet or PC could have handled streaming a game back then, but maybe there was? People are either going to move with or without the change in trends. I am hoping, that in 20 years - we have a standard, strong contender for virtual reality. In which case, I am going to give zero fucks about a streamer like usual and while my wife is off drinking wine with her wino's - Ill be fucking some dumb slut on OnlyFans for pennies.

Heh, my government passed a law a few months ago, basically it allows revenue fraud services (like the IRS in US) to watch social media for tax fraud. Almost everyone was like "heh who cares, no one's dumb enough to go on facebook and tell they cheat their taxes".

Well, some started to sweat hardcore because as I learned it's an established trend here to get unemployment / social welfare benefits while living off donations. There's also a lot of shady business going on between the curtains, like this one for example.

The obvious problem here is, minus the top 1-5% than can be considered as legit entrepreneurs, a lot of them aren't really doing anything than playing videogames 24/7 and whenever donations or social benefits will go dry they'll be out for a job in a post-Covid pandemic economy where people without job skills or experience will have little to no value. And they have visibility, they're in their rooms with IKEA furniture stacked with goodies from companies, showing gullible people this an okay lifestyle, just get subs and endorsements bro.

During SWG back in 2004, my friends and I ranged from 14 to 25 years old and fifteen years after almost 95% of us have stable jobs, families etc because even when we woke up everyday at 5 to farm the fucking rares mob spawns after server reset, spending the rest of the day dancing in cantinas and scheming guild warfare, we all knew this wasn't gonna last. What's gonna happen fifteen years from now?
