What boss are you struggling on? I literally found none of the dungeons difficult at all until halfway through Spellplague caverns, but after doing a few attempts we found we could aggro only the bosses spawned adds and not the whole room, it became easy after that, and no we weren't geared.
THIS.. so many new MMO's I have gone to, big example GW2 (and neverwinter) have all tried to revolutionise something they thought was a problem when in fact it is a major attention grabber at max level "Progression" ... as much HAMSTER as they give this said term there is a tonne of people who love it. I quit WoW after 7…
Both player and environment scale though, Environment being scaled first and then gear continually scaling the player up equally or past the environment. Example a new dungeon comes out the bosses are all hard (jokes its Neverwinter... cough nevemind i'll continue) the players have a hard time due to the previous gear they…
There is nothing wrong with Elitism, run with your friends if you can't get into a "Add-geon" ... see what I did there. But seriously, there is no Elitism in this game because there is no core mechanics for the dungeons that require skill, kill adds - attack boss, kill adds - attack boss.
Actually Wildstar is one of the few upcoming MMO's i've seen that have said they want a focus on End/Elder game before they even release it. Looks really really well done, especially with 20 or so staff being developers on Vanilla WoW
Same thing happened to me man, no exploits at all, just playing the AH, especially trading AD for Zen, opening boxes and selling rinse repeat. 13k GS GWF, and I have nothing to do except login and do a daily prayer if I can be bother, what really sucks is that about 8 or so RL mates and I all were really keen and have just…
Not good enough to waste an At-Will slot or have to try and reslot one and wait for the CD before using it. Name a boss where you single target... exactly
Sure Strike is still completely useless unless you're Sentinel spec and you're trying to gain threat on 1 target. It's horrible because there is never a situation where we need it, name one dungeon where you're single targeting during boss fights.. exactly.
What I would of liked to see in this patch was an Upgrade to the Destroyers last tier Skill, it really needs an increase in Determination to Damage done buffed, as it is near on useless.
Agree with this 100%, personally I'd love to be on skype with all my mates and see a spear from a wall 1 hit KO and ragdoll him 20 metres across a room, would be hilarious, and since we're all Aussie 0 fcuks given. Either that or just remove them.
Wow what... I played WoW since vanilla, and in terms of PVE Vanilla/Burning Crusade were the pinnacle. Wotlk was fun don't get me wrong but that is the expansion where Blizzard said "Wait a second... casual players are finding Hard Mode raiding HARD!! We better nerf everything to existence and make it so that the hardcore…
You're comparing a class made for AoE against a single target. Sure Strike is still bad, maybe the new patch will make it semi decent for a GWF that might be a viable tank option now. Wicked Strike and Weapon Master Strike will always outperform in dungeons for us because our role is AoE and not single target.
The traps don't have to be a major part of the dungeon or an area where you NEED to get through lots of traps, the way they have them placed now is great because there isn't any dungeon that requires you to intentionally get hit. Thats why introducing a 1 hit KO would still be a good idea, doesn't stop progression of any…
Agree, 1 hit to kill traps would make dungeons more dungeony(sic). Actually give you that sense of being in a dungeon with traps and dangers etc, plus it would make for some good laughs on Skype/mumble/vent/TS
1) No one know yet exactly what the dungeon will be yet/how you can get into it AND IF you even need to be part of the PVP EXAMPLE: WOTLK PVE Raid boss in the opposing PVP area (Forget the name "Wintersomething"). You would both fight for the right to open the dungeon area for the time until the next battle (3-4 hours) so…
I leveled extremely easy with Destroyer, TakeDown/Restoring Strike/Flourish and a cleric healer are a must. Had no real problems at all until the late 50's where mobs do quite a bit of damage (Mount Hotenow and Whispering Caverns suck) WMS/RS or WMS/WS are a must for leveling IMO
Should of stopped reading at Sure Strike (The worst At-will in history) Your stat priorities are literally backwards by the way: Arp(2200)>Recovery(3500)>Crit(3500)>Power Power is near on useless, you gain MUCH more from maxing your ARP and Recovery for the decreased cooldowns/increased action point gain (25% on both) and…
People have tested this with positive results dude "Armor Penetration Armor Penetration Tooltip = 35.7*ArmorPenetration^1.88/(LevelConstant+ArmorPenetration^1.88) Targets Mitigation % = Mitigation-(ArmorPenetrationTooltip*(1+StatBonus)) ...where the level constant for level 60 is between 1,224,109 and 1,225,473. Your % of…
Yeah but referring back to the point that people are noticing that even after 2200 on mobs they are having increasing damage values which suggests that Armour penetration can actually go into the negative values.
Check out Trickshaws guide, we have reason to believe that it actually can go negative, resulting in a flat Damage increase Check Trickshaws thread man, you can dig it up somewhere in here, from what it seems 2200 isn't the hard cap either since the Diminishing returns are extremely extremely small. Basically resulting in…
Arp is applied AFTER defence reduction. Example. If a mob has 20% DR and you stack 3 Student of the Swords (45% defence reduction) the mob is now on 11% DR, So a 9% increase in dps. If you additionally have 20% armour penetration it is a flat 1%/1% increase in damage. Just saying this off the top of my head, Trickshaw has…
One of the most powerful tanking tools for a GWF is Unstoppable hands down since it is based on an additive 50%, hence if you were a base 30% DR and you pop Unstoppable it is 80% DR. Adding health drastically reduces the uptime of Unstoppable since Determination is built of a % of health taken per hit. The higher your…
Can someone please explain how you sprint Cancel? Do you literally just cast sprint after you've clicked so the attack animation is stopped but you still hit with WMS? Seems a bit of an exploit/buggy
