Random Complaint Thread

That's why running with people that actually follow points is much better.

Don't need a point system.. just need ldr's to be non-retarded

Just reading this complaint thread makes me happy that I'm not the only person feeling this way about Blizzard.

I expect 4.2 sometime between late fall/early winter.

Considering how many groups there are in this game (every 10-man is a locked and bound guild in themselves) finding dedicated leaders is not a reasonable expectation. On top of that, gear is fleeting. Every 6 months gear is out paced with new content. It isn't very reasonable to expect a leader that can get a rag-tag, ever-changing raid group together for fights that also keeps track of every member's gear when they are currently fighting just to keep raids going, especially when the next patch will replace it anyways. Yes, the rep should not get the gear, but to bar them from roll means to lose them half the time, meanwhile to give it to the dedicated member is to give them a reason to take a break sooner...

Fucking Atramedes... tonight it targeted me in the air phase after our Rogue hit a gong. Next attempt I stopped Searing Flames after one tick like normal. The next Modulation put 3 people at 97 sound. The fuck is wrong with this fight?

[Correction]

Atramedes is full of buggy mechanics. If you're taking damage while someone hits a gong it doesn't reset your sound sometimes. The fight is fucking riddled with crap like that lol.

Anyone know of a good method to get "Fire, Walk with Me" in twin peaks as a death knight? Speed pots+Parachute+ goblin jump and PoF over the water and I still arrive 2-3 seconds short each time w/o any interference from alliance. I thought to use rocket boots, but didn't know they had nerfed it so you cant carry a flag with them on now...which sucks.

[Kaylia]

Did you try grabbing the speed boost before picking the flag. That one doesnt last long, but it should give you a 10sec sprint at least.

Yeah, it only gives like a 1 second more lead though after I run out the opposite door. It's annoying that the speed boots pop near the bases, though I guess that's how they pop in WSG too so yeah.

According to wowhead, there's a bug with it too that even if you do the achievement, you wont get credit because it takes 2-4 seconds to even realize you capped the flag or something, no clue if that's true or not.

Why are we given the option to skip a cutscene...when if we do it just fucks up the entire quest for us. Who the hell thought of this. If you do the quest to ride with Sylvanas in Silverpine and say to yourself "fuck it, ive done this quest 10 times on alts, I dont need to listen to her story AGAIN" and skip the cutscene, it despawns Sylvanas, all the npcs at Sepulcher INCLUDING THE FLIGHTMASTER and then forces you to run back to the start of the quest...where Sylvanas is no longer at till you abandon the quest and start over again.

That's some real good work there, don't get me wrong the cinematics are nice but after the 10th time I don't want to see them and there shouldnt be an option to skip them if this is the case.

[Siniroth]

You might be running into a glitch, I've had a few times where skipping cutscene didn't proceed quest on random quests, but have skipped the same cutscenes perfectly fine with no issues. Albeit not that quest specifically, but others definitely it seemed hit and miss.

You've seen this happen first hand? because other than that period when it was bugged, I've never had issues with the fight (personally), I just blame morons that cant move from rings tbh.

I've seen people die to devastation on landing and literally 10~ seconds after a gong though.

Any quest that shows something happening, like the hillsbrad bombs going off, Wrathgate etc don't bug. Any quest that shows YOU moving in the CS or being taken to a new place will always bug out and result and you having to start the quest over again.

Sometimes when someone says a fight is buggy it's because they've killed it ten times and still see random mechanics not work properly e.g. gongs not resetting sound, beams spawning in the wrong place.

It's not always because people are morons and don't understand the fight.

Just a tip.

I can vouch for it happening first hand. Last night, as I mentioned, I hit a gong to stop Searing Flame. I wasn't standing in anything, and there were no rings to avoid between the time he was stunned and the time the next Modulation came out. After that Modulation I was one of three people that jumped instantly to 97 sound. Can I say 100% that the other people weren't standing in fire? No, but I can guarantee that I wasn't standing in anything and still ended up with 97 sound 5 seconds after hitting a gong.

[Meresgi]

I've noticed a bug with my sound gauge where after a gong for Searing Flame, my sound doesn't go down at all. Anyone else been seeing this in the past month or so? it doesn't happen all the time and I dodge sound rings like a black man dodges child support payments so it's not the rings.

[aurik]

It's just a buggy fight. Blizzard QA is terrible.

Late fall/early Winter of 2012.

but don't worry guys! 7 whole raid bosses that will give everyone a least 2 months of content if that!

[SamanosukeShiva]

LMFAO
you spin me baby right round

[Correction]

well that's one way to get Last Man Standing.

[Gulkeeva]

died laughing seeing that haha
