Random Complaint Thread

[brisk]

PM sent because my complaint is not having enough on for raids. We want to finish our mace before starting Heroic ToC but can't when no one shows up for Yogg 3 Lights.

Level difference miss rates in PvP. Just missed a paladin 5 levels above me twice with fear so he killed the FC and returned the flag instead of me saving my FC.

Solution.

Only run with friends.

Sorry to hear that though.

[Guitarman]

Find better friends, idk

[Plow]

I had a friend during Brewfest that not only wouldn't go after he got his mount (didn't matter, I can solo Brewfest boss too), the fucker wouldn't even take the 20 seconds to join group and drop his teleporter for me.

Gearscore can be so fucking STUPID!

NO! Your lame addon that lists you as 5k gearscore when you're wearing blues still is NOT correct!

NO! Having 2856 gearscore means dick if you don't care about threat, don't Misdirect and stand in fucking fire!

Gearscore = indication of a player's skill! Not synonymous with "OMFG AWESOME TALENTED PLAYER!"

-.-

Frost mages in arena. Honestly, what do these guys not have?

Mage tools:
Snares
Roots
Pets with roots/snares
Immunity
CC without a cooldown
Stun
-50% magical duration
Interrupt/silence
-20% healing reduction
Multiple debuffs with 40% dispel protection making it a waste of mana to dispel
Spellsteal
Blink

The fact that they can polymorph you and get far enough away to drink for 1/4 of their mana alone is retarded, then they also have EVERY ABILITY in the game in some form.

And yes, I was doing 2v2's which Blizzard doesn't care about anymore as dps/healer with a dps that doesn't have MS (prot pally) but I'm not complaining that I couldn't DPS the team down, I'm complaining that I HAD NO CHANCE IN HELL OF DOING ANYTHING THE ENTIRE MATCH. I have 30s cooldown on HoJ, they have 15s Blink. I have a 25s cooldown on freedom, by the time I catch up to the mage they've spellstolen is off me and re-snared/nova'd me. My only snare lasts 5s because of mage armor, my DoT lasts 7s, even if my druid roots them (without getting counterspelled) to get a blink off, by the time I get to them to stun the 3s duration on stun (because of mage armor!) is basically over and they can nova me. Winter's chill should be prioritized as the last thing to be removed or something, because eating 4 stacks of winter's chill instead of the single frost nova while winter's chill gets applied by fucking ice lance is retarded.

Having to reinstall WoW!

Having to reinstall WoW!

I had to do this three days ago.

Complaint: Melee who don't know how to avoid Icehowl's Whirl. NOT HARD MOTHERFUCKERS AND THE ENRAGE TIMER IS TIGHT AS IT IS WITHOUT YOU NOT KNOWING HOW TO MAXIMIZE TIME ON TARGET!

[Meph]

I dont know how to avoid his whirl Ive done it a few times unintentionally, so how do you do it?

[Norellicus]

Angle yourself in such a way that you don't get knocked back more than a yard or two. You can't actually avoid it, it's instant. You just prevent the knockback so you aren't spending 3 seconds running to target.

[Maxxthepenguin]

attn heroic 25 faction champions

FUCK YOU

You can avoid it entirely. His hitbox is big enough that you can melee him from > 15 yards away. Maintaining that position requires about a second of tapping strafe but that's infinitely better than spending 3 seconds running back to him 6 times during the fight.

[Norellicus]

o.O

I'll have to try that...we always just put everybody parallel to the wall in such a way that melee could still stand behind him and wouldn't get knocked outside the hitbox.

[Correction]

Yeah maybe this isn't as common knowledge as I suspected. I gotta learn to speak up in my PUGs, it's hilarious watching everyone but me getting whirled away during P3 beasts. "I call 'em GRAVITY BOOTS!"

There is also the possibility that this is a bug and Blizz never intended for Whirl to be avoided, because otherwise then the only sources of raid damage on Icehowl would be crash and breath, but really it's the first boss in the instance so who knows?

What I do know for sure is it will absolutely prevent Melee from getting gibbed by an unlucky whirl + crash. I've had that combo hit me a few times on PUGs where raid healing gets sloppy and they don't top folks off after a breath.
