Regarding caster balance; a lot of fights in ST require movement, snd potentially a lot of it. Makes it hard as a caster when you have to spam a 3sec cast but have to move constantly, or have mechanics that move you. That’s definitely a factor this phase. Gnomer did have fights with movement but they seemed less frequent so to say so it didn’t feel too bad.
Get big on your own content until you have enough of an audience to farm content from smaller content creators, then you are too big to fail and you don't have to invest much time into your own content, so you can pump out a greater volume of content, which allows you to grow your audience more, etc.
There is no time for a hard raid. With seasonnal content you HAVE to make it easy if the next phase is in 2months and a half. Aligning game designe for the 5 % of players is not a good idea.
Rough start PHASE 3, but loving it!! BUT not that im that tryhard, but i want it more difficult... Classic wow is suppose to be hard and rewarding at the same time
SoD lore is unexplored vanilla lore. im ok with this as long as the in game content doesnt suffer for it. but even if it does it opens doors in the future for expanded sod content
Think about wow sod as diablo4. People are playing to hang with the boys and see some loot. Maybe drink a couple beers and see character improvement. Yeah the hardcore people max characters in 24 to 48 hours. The bulk of the people work and get 10 hours a week and maybe get a night a week to raid. Stop the hard raid junk. Seasonal server like 5 more months left with 4 plus tiers of 60 content. Maybe new level 60 raids. Lets make it fun not a sweat fest. Classic plus can be well designed and slowly rolled out. Make mistakes fix them but keep it fun. Most mmo players are casuals to hit higher subscriber counts. Retail has already cornered all the hardcore subs. The growth is coming from the casuals. You want better things across wow accept some casual modes to fund your hardcore modes
i think it was all Kotick fucking everything up. since they gave him the boot HIT AFTER HIT AFTER HIT (in public opinion) microsoft im pretty sure is letting the reigns go and letting the devs go wild. If true, huge.
They seriously need to hurry up and give gathering professions SOMETHING..... how are we in p3 and gathering has seen 0 benefit/bonus, like are the conjured gathering nodes in incursions meant to be "the new gathering content"? Gathering feels so terrible to have on a main character.
@@theformuoli6397 that's my entire point, unless you play alts to gather on, you're at a massive disadvantage by not taking the crafting epics, alchemy and enchanting also print gold compared to gathering. some examples of what I'd like to see for gathering professions: -a node somewhere easy to access, like rapidly spawning outside the raid, or 1 of each node early into the raid that doesn't despawn, that you can hit once per X min, that gives you a buff in ST/nightmare locations (like crafted epics). - maybe you need to craft an epic pickaxe/skinning knife/herb bag(that you don't need equipped), the tools could explain the buffing method in their tooltip, or maybe even have a chance to yield more resources from nodes.
Would be nice if Blizzard allowed me to interact with the game’s trade economy and use the Auction House. 20 year old game and they can’t come up with a solution to the bots that doesn’t punish players.
Incursions/WO farming is the most braindead content Blizz has ever put in. People keep saying it gives retail vibes but those people literally havnt played retail since cata because I’ve never played a more mind numbing version of the game lmao
Want to buff mm hunter ? Make Ap give spell power. Wouldn't change the rotation that is very fun now , wouldn't break the pvp and everyone would be happy since traps damage are not a breaking point in pvp
just make BRD to another lvl 50 raid dungeon, then u have more time to create good lvl 60 content. All loot in BRD is lvl 50 then and u can farm it in this phase.
as far as the nerf on ST, I agree with you the nerf was needed for SoD.... HOWEVER I do think it could have waited the 2 more days til reset..... go ahead and announce the nerfs in a blue post but hold off the 2-3 days til reset... what are your thought staysafe? would this be a fair middle ground? I personally think it is.... And I am not saying they should make a habit of over tuning raids and then nerfing.... but it did come out overtuned... but it WAS killable... they should have allowed the guilds who were trying to get that 1st kill the rest of the reset :/
They should just have a way to run these raids prenerfed with no loot or lockout. Throw in a reward title or meme trinket. So both the peeps who wants a challenge and those who want bragging rights are satisfied.
I've BEEN saying for months Frost Mages with FFB pump harder than people realise. If you are stacking Fire Mages using Frostfire Bolt (which they should) they get an exta 5% crit on their FFBs from the Frost Mages Winter's chill debuff if you bring one. But the Frost Mage is now just stright up beating the Fire Mages now???
Day one raids consisted of mages, priests, hunters shamans and locks, mate. What the hell are you talking about casters. Range of engagement is a huge and underrated utility. If mages, rogues and warriors would deal the exact same dps, no one would chose warrior and rogue over the mage.
my class is unplayable. resto shaman. you will help your raid more dpsing in resto spec than you will actually healing. you just cannot keep up with the raw output of the priest in this phase
@Alejandro_87 they're not the best. But their WG Is performing how you want healing rain to. Druid was above me on healing. I was 480k druid was 520 I belive. The 3 priests were high 700ks
you cant nerf warriors, we are awful. without windfury/WS we dont get enough fury to do any damage, its actually trash and i mean god awful, we fall off a cliff without a windfury or WS. Id prefer to just buff warrior so it doesnt need it and just remove windfury/WS from the game..so its actually fun to play. Warriors are reliant on buffs/consumes to do any damage. Warrior is damage=more damage, its dreadful and unfun
The game is fine. It's the sweaty push push. Where the raid is everything. Having to pay gold in phase 1 in order to raid. Phase 2 had armor checks, log checks, or no raid for you. Phase 3 had ranged hunters benched. Either go melee hunter or no raid for you. That's why the nerf. However, mindset didn't get nerfed.
alliance cried so hard that they are getting a shamanistic rage equivalent and landed shamanistic rage a nerf in one fell swoop, even Dispersion will take a hit as a result. those are some powerful tears, imagine what they could achieve if they put that energy into being good at the game. don't think the running joke of you stealing all our shit is lost on us. this is like the 6th _KEY_ ability blizzard takes from shaman and gives to the alliance with no tradeoff.
Tbh they already lost me. The vertical progression is so extreme, and when you couple that w/ seasonal content, it just feels like the game just doesn't respect your time or its own content. Who doesn't like consistent big updates, but at the same time, such short seasons seem to inherently conflict w/ the traditional nature of MMOs.
Honestly it’s trash right now. Nothing to do, people obsessed with world buffs and unaffordable consums. Forced to farm incursions or swipe. Bloated economy. Just disgusting right now
"the casters have had enough" they have been on top for the entire time except for the last 2 weeks lol. Sure, they will eventually need help but not being top DPS for once isn't a problem in and of itself.
unpopular opinion but S3 is the worst one yet. Incursions are awful and dungeons have just turned into WO spams. Class balance is at an all time bad with casters not even being able to play. idk. All the more power to you if you are enjoying SOD. But season 3 for me is a flop. Oh and god forbid Shamans have 1 bad spec. Enhance is currently god mode
Incursions/WO farm is absolute brainrot content 😂 people comparing it to retail content are also brainrot. WoWs never had this bad of a content loop in general. Even Choreghast had more variety than this shit. You just run in a circle and circle jerk with your team. Lmao phase completely killed the vibe by making all the content so mind numbingly braindead
wow didnt hear you asking for melee buffs last phase, like at all, ever. warriors rogues and hunters deserve top spot till we can AoE and heal like you guys. sorry, not sorry. you only ever look at dps, casters buff, debuff, aoe, heal, etc. rogues and warriors just zug. you cant have EVERYTHING.

I like the lore, its fun to learn more later when people dissect the diologue
i love how every content creator now uses others content to make their own content..
Lmaoooo they don't want to work real jobs
However I respect this guy outside of this

so this means you're leaving UA-cam and will stop hate watching right? right?
yeah i mean all the big creators are doing. Cheap and ez way to pump out vidoes @@mcfarvo
The ST nerfs were 100% needed. SoD was already turning into a sweat fest in P2. Go to retail if you want that type of super difficult content.
go back to retail for your free loot.
StaysafeTV and the Comeback Kids are both pretty cool
Good react man, I loved your insight on the subjects of the video
the physical vs caster divide seems intentional considering they're quite clearly deliberatly holding back Greater Firepower Elixir and Wizard Oil

Us Warrior's are very quiet right now! Well, if you exclude the massive amount of gloating and trash talking 😂
Hysteric in defeat, smug in victory, truly the way of the warrior :D
Rough start PHASE 3, but loving it!! BUT not that im that tryhard, but i want it more difficult... Classic wow is suppose to be hard and rewarding at the same time
Sod is still get your world buffs,consumes,pre bis and link your gnomer logs to raid?
every chance i get i tell people dont play wow for the pve.
'Buff the casters!'
Me: *laughs in paladin*, "welcome to the club."
THANK GOD FOR THE BEAR CHANGES!!!
SoD lore is unexplored vanilla lore. im ok with this as long as the in game content doesnt suffer for it. but even if it does it opens doors in the future for expanded sod content

You get gold shut up
To be fair- you don’t really want gathering on a main character anyway
@@williamgillberg3667100% agree gathering are gold busters

Personally I quit SOD. Incursions have just ruined the game in many ways and now I have no desire to play.
Incursions are the worst activity that has ever been in WoW for the time I’ve been playing. They are completely unbearable.

Warrior might be top3 now in raids but im still getting wrecked by most caster classes in pvp 🤣 especially druids and priests
Want to buff mm hunter ? Make Ap give spell power. Wouldn't change the rotation that is very fun now , wouldn't break the pvp and everyone would be happy since traps damage are not a breaking point in pvp
I'm happy that mm hunter is now viable , even if they managed to overtune melee hunter way too much ...
Atleast running mara for the dagger you are also making gold from darkmoon cards as a biproduct
Nlizzard changed because SOMEONES BACK, HES BACK!
why is he the phero in his pfp?
The dagger doesn't exist brother. Good luck on the farm
just make BRD to another lvl 50 raid dungeon, then u have more time to create good lvl 60 content. All loot in BRD is lvl 50 then and u can farm it in this phase.
Phase 2 was a caster phase, why not let melee have some fun too?
I did not have much fun last phase and this one i am having a much better time
without warcraft logs people were able to get pugs hah! but for 20+ person content realistically you need a guild.
Bruh, melee suffered in gnomer. It is melee time to shine
I think they need to ignore the raid stats and focus more on balancing the game for PVP
On behalf of the warriors, its their turn. :P

SOD is a void-inspired fever dream.
Wait a minute... you can't just breifly pass by the fact Frost Mage is the top Mage damage spec

paladins would bitch about them getting 500% dps increase

didnt wee see any gameplay video her eon this channel ? i heard about you and want to look how u play etc but i cant :D
Wow players created gate keeping then when their class isn’t in the meta they cry 😂. Can’t make this up.
20mans killed a lot of casual guilds. i think pop will continue to go down and just hardcore players will play p4
SOD .... it was all a dream
my class is unplayable. resto shaman. you will help your raid more dpsing in resto spec than you will actually healing. you just cannot keep up with the raw output of the priest in this phase
