So what was the point of the siege anyway?
Was it to gain naval superiority? Because if that was the goal couldn't they have just pressed the button and left?It feels like all the Alliance accomplished was putting a more competent leader of the Zandalari throne and freezing Mekkatorque.I mean the whole point of a siege is the idea that you would capture the city you are besieging. But the Alliance was just "Welp killed the king, time to go home." So they gained literally nothing from this.I feel bad for Alliance players. Even when they win they lose. I remember Ion marketing this as the Alliance's fistpump moment but this siege seems to be a total failure.
WHY IN THE HELL ARE THE NEUTAL BLOBS IN SHRINE STILL ABLE TO PROC BURSTING?
Neutral Mobs in shrine still proc bursting, the ones near the casters in beginning and the one near the casters/1st boss encounter. WHY IN THE HELL IS THIS A THING? THE TENTACLES IN BOTH THE "AMBUSH" ROOM AND THE SHRINE LIKE AREA ACROSS THE BRIDGE DOESEN'T PROC BURSTING!Sincerely,A concerned tank.
A few months ago Blizz touted new tech that allowed them to see what pulls in what dungeons were too hard. They implemented many changes that week and nothing since, what gives?
Freehold is still absurdly easy to time and now so is Tol Dagor.KR and Shrine still feel really really hard in comparison.In any given week, if the affixes are too hard to comfortably time KR/Shrine on 12, then we can likely time a 15 FH/TD.Objectively, m+ dungeon balance is a mess. I don’t care about the system as a whole feeling too hard/easy, I just don’t like there are about 3-4 levels of key difficulty between the hardest and easiest dungeons in terms of timing them, especially when certain affix/mechanic combos become impossibly difficult.I’ve spent about 2000+ hours of my life doing keys, I think the easier solution is to just tone back the harder affixes, but one way or another, I think the m+ playerbase deserves better than a single round of hotfixes in 6 months. Or maybe we don’t.
Guildleader kicked everyone
So I recently came came back after 8.0 and wanted to start raiding again. I found a guild advertisement for BoD currently 8/9 HC and decided to apply as healer.With a small conversation and based on old logs I was accepted as trail and asked if I would join the next few raids before reset (thursday and sunday). Appeartly they were recruiting more so It was like 60% core and 40% trail. Fine we managed to get 8/9 fast and had a few attempts Jaina with all wipes in p3. After the brake the RL decided to do mythic instead and oneshot the first boss. For some reason he didnt want to continue and called it.So today was reset day and I was kinda happy to do some farm bosses for loot. Logged it and got kicked from the guild and discord. After some small research I found out everyone got kicked and their ‘core’ moved to a new guild. In trade I saw them recruiting as a 9/9 hc guild looking aiming for cutting edge.Kinda weird experience and wanted to share it with someone.Tl:dr Found a new guild,

Personal Opinion: WoD´s Ashran was a better/more fun Version of Warfronts.
I dont know if you can compare those two, because Warfronts are PvE and Ashran was PvP but still it feels/felt kinda simmilar to play, just Ashran felt more exciting in my opinion, even if some people said Ashran was trash.

Alliance/Horde "Invasions" in BFA
I like them. Some world pvp, some quests, decent rewards, all in all I dig it. Lets port it to Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor as well. If we're fighting lets make it all across the continents!
G.M.O.D. (formerly dropping from Mekkatorque) changed to drop from Jaina on LFR only.

The real etiquette problem in WoW
The way I see it, the real etiquette problem in WoW is the unrealistic expectations people place on PUGs. Everyone always thinks that when they are PUGing that that there is this entitlement that the run will be flawless and anything below that causes some people to legit go crazy. A recent example from last night comes to mind.I joined a fresh normal Battle of Dazar’alor pug and there was this other pug tank who I was speaking with in whispers just coordinating basic tank things and was a generally nice guy but maybe a bit inexperienced. Problem was that he was pulling bosses a few seconds everyone confirmed the ready check instead of using a DBM timer which is bad for obvious reasons. While he had done the same thing in Champions and Grong – there was no problem because we just one shotted the bosses and no one asked him to do otherwise. However he did the same thing on the next boss and we wiped which caused this epic rage from various people of this guild that had organized the PU

Guild members who don’t push keys and want an invite to a high one and get pissed off when declined need to chill.
There’s usually a small group of people per guild that not only raids but push high keys too, I’m part of one in mine. For the last month or so I’ve been pushing keys with 4 good friends in my guild, we play together very well and while we aren’t the best we still strive to get either a higher score or see how far we can push keys per week. Lately though there’s been guild members who get pissed off when we decline them a spot. They’ve never don’t anything past a 9 or 10 and honestly aren’t very aware with mechanics/affixes so we turn them down and they get mad. The main excuse they use is that they’re guildies and it shouldn’t matter and we should still invite them regardless. I personally think that’s a shit excuse. We put in the time to push a key and then they want a free ride. I’ve talked to a few friends in other guilds and it seems to be an issue with theirs too. I know it happened in legion too but it’s been happening a lot more in BFA or maybe I’m wrong idk.Update: I’d like t
Islands are gorgeous. I really wish there were other game modes so I can actually enjoy them.
Islands are beautiful. I want to explore them! Rushing through and constantly fighting mobs just feels annoying. I would rather have a system similar to MoP scenarios but have them take place on islands. Each scenario could provide different objectives such as a mechanic heavy 3 player boss type mob, puzzles, hidden azerite that has to be detected, and just more random enjoyable events. Maybe aside from scenarios there could be just different game modes. Maybe a 10 man battle royale on an island similar to the movie... battle royale. We could have race mounts through the islands and pick up power ups like mario kart 64. We could do pet battles on islands. We could have a bunch of different game modes and scenarios (more scripted), instead of just rushing through and wasting these amazing art assets.
As someone who recently started tanking, why is there so much abuse towards them?
I wish I was overexaggerating here and maybe it's just a niche personal experience but as someone who recently started out with a tank after taking a break from wow this is really astounding. I never did do a lot of m+, just weekly ones mostly with my former warlock main. Now I started tanking with my prot warrior and it's really baffling how incredibly tense and honestly condescending people are.For example, there was only a +2 Siege of Boralus I did today on my prot warrior. Everything goes well, only thing I do is struggle a bit with threat generation on it, but otherwise I'm fine. So since we are really good in time (like a guaranteed +2 key upgrade) I ask them to please mind their positioning when we got to the area with the giants. 2 dps don't, however, and we wipe 2 times because they pulled 2-3 packs. I tell them "please be more careful they hit hard for me^^" and what I get as response by both of them is "well if you could play tank properly thi
Having 3 zones to level in between 110-120 feels very limiting. It'd be cool if we could do what we do in Battle of Dazar'alor and swap faction to "see what transpired", thereby letting us level up on the other continent. At least on alts once we've finished our War Campaign once on our mains.
Earn an achievement when you complete your faction's War Campaign on your main.Unlock the ability to swap faction temporarily on an alt to level up in the enemy zones instead. Probably comes with a long cooldown or a hefty price so you can't just swap between them for double rewards, etc.I imagine this could be done with some NPC, perhaps a spy or chrono mage, transforming you or "sending you back a few days in time to see what happened".
