World Of Warcraft

Well when you complete a zone the other choice pops up with the new zone I believe. You will do em all eventually at you just choose the order.

And then there's still going to be a zone that's designed for max level characters, without the scaling.

Warlords of Draenor has an unusually large number of sandals. That is, the footwear my spellcasting characters have been getting have mostly been sandals. When did this turn into Naruto?

The current tier for female Druids is a bikini top and bare midriff, which I appreciate as a male whilst still finding kind of ridiculous.

In unrelated news, Dark Legacy Comics sums up the feelings of everyone who's sick of the same old song and dance from players.

Weren't the night elf ladies always showing off their waists?

Every now and then we get a full robe or a tunic. It seems to wax and wane.

Male tier◊ is exactly the same as the female tier◊ with the exception of a little Cleavage Window.

Hmm. Well, at least the genders get equal treatment.

Its pretty different for druid tier, look at tiers 1-15◊ Druid tiers are almost all completely covered.

I have to disagree with Dark Legacy comics on an statistics level.

A lot of people really did quit. And a lot more people who were mostly happy up until this point are finding the Draenor endgame to be a chore, or worse, Quick Farm Content. Doesn't help that the first response to the numerous complaints to the problems involved are: Well people complain all the time so it's irrelevant.

Sure, but the comic isn't really aimed at those people so much as the ones who won't put their money where their mouth is and just quit if they're not enjoying the game.

Obviously there's nothing wrong with quitting if you're not having fun, but if it's just bile filling up gchat, it gets annoying.

Right. The comic is aimed at those players who refuse to quit despite loudly announcing that they hate the game at every opportunity.

Skinner box is hell of a drug.

They'd just end in another one anyway, which would drain more money via microtransactions to boot.

In terms of money paid per hour of play time, WoW is the cheapest game I've ever played for which I've paid anything at all.

Exactly what I'm saying and I'm in pretty much the same boat, yeah.
(Except HOMM 3. Daamn I've spent a LOT of time with it over the years.)

Sadly for me my record goes to Team Fortress 2 followed by Dark Souls.

Also someone slap me the next time I think that Tanking for Archimonde Pugs is a good idea. Mannoroth is fairly easy to know, but Archimonde is terrible when people want to cheese doomfire.

I must say, the measly few dungeons I did (stuff like Stratholme) made me hate the people who play DPS in this game because they keep fucking pulling the adds. Isn't that my job as a tank? A close second is Healers That Don't.

Most of the dungeons in the game are way too easy, so you can go ahead and pull several packs to aoe all at once.

Of course the DP Sers that decide to do it themselves rather than ask you to are idiots.

And then we have hunters that use their wide area abilities to pull everything in a hallway, without putting a Misdirect on the tank.

... I should really find a decent guild to level with because levelling with PUGs feels and sounds like hell.

Huh, really? Levelling pugs didn't bother me so much. Just warn the healer and then rush ahead like a freight train.

I got a couple bad healers, so now I'm all careful. Maybe I should level a healer next and see what the fuss is about.

If you were moving ahead slowly, they probably afked out on you out of boredom. The leveling dungeons are just THAT EASY.
(OR they were in DPS spec and were too busy pewpewing.)

So I've got the same advice for you I'd tell to those DPS: talk to your party. Just say "Hey healer, do you mind if I pick up the speed and grab a couple packs at a time?". If they give a goahead, then you go and do it. The run will be faster and everybody will be happier.

Also watch their mana bar, if it doesn't go down, you don't pause, you just go and pull the next mob.

I'll keep that in mind.
What I also need to do is to figure how to position TellMeWhen's icons so I'll be able to look at them and my character at the same time.

Alpha Build 21063

Mass ress for every healer!

According to the patch notes, rogues get flight form, but can't use Crimson Vial in it, and Multilate no longer generates combo points. Huh?
