Haha man, this is brilliant, I’m saving this comment down for rainy days when I need a good laugh 😂
Isklar1993
They fixed that now

I think the same thing that always happens will happen - they will come back near the end and boost each other after someone has the resil in their guild / party

I think Details / the damage meter has an option to show you “avoidable damage taken” you want to review that at least at the end of the dungeon / between pulls to understand what you were taking and aim to reduce that
You also want to look at where it got hairy and whether you could have used a defensive before the big aoe damage
Also worth asking the healer what he noticed at the end of the dungeon in terms of your defensive usage
Think as well about whether you were ever pulling threat and making it hard for the tank to group and consider whether you waited enough
Also on the Details damage meter, look at your interrupts and aim to have that as high as possible and compare it to others etc your stuns aren’t on there but just be conscious of those as well
Then you want to look at logs and compare your APM to others, and if your melee, look at your melee uptime; how often were you stood too far away to hit the mobs and get that passive damage or procs

lol, like all the best jokes; it’s funny because it’s true 😂
Isklar1993
If you’re new; don’t get convinced to play Hunter aha
Isklar1993
I think you just have to play
There’s GREAT videos on what comes up in a dungeon and how you should think about handling it and you’ll fairly quickly notice the patterns of “these are my combos / options for this TYPE of event”
But you’ll fly through early keys, then you will hit a wall and be holding cooldowns for scary events, and you’ll over hold them and people will die, then the Cd management will click and you’ll progress further; then you will hit another wall of “okay, I can’t just send on CD, I have to plan for this event”.
Then you’ll hit a break even of being with bad players that screw your plan by taking avoidable damage and that’s a whole different story
Then you break ahead of “the pack” into keys were people are good
It’s a hard journey of having to do much more research than dps imo but really only playing it and learning as you go is all you can do!
Don’t be afraid to not let your dps put you in a too high a key before your ready I suppose, because it’s hard to learn when there’s zero margin for error
Edit: doing TW is ‘valuable’ in a sense but I don’t think anything will be truely threatening and overall much less useful for you to learn how to “properly” play - imo TW is a brute force experience that doesn’t really reflect actual gameplay
You’re certainly going to have an easier time learning with good players / friends - I do think that that is a good way to learn and not get demotivated if that’s possible for you

Not advocating one way or the other - but the appealing thing about wow is its diverse and you can enjoy it in so many ways - and there’s no “right” way
Isklar1993
I do agree - not sure why they do a cinematic with cool undead and then we have twister bois with clipping back shit
Isklar1993
Yes and EVERY definition / example of it being used in a sentence in the MW doesn’t even agree with its own definition - clearly a victim of retroactively having jt updated because people are easily offended - but every other dictionary has it defined how we all use the word: no one has ever said “the Assassin pussyfooted into the room” or “the sounders pussyfooted into position”

Don’t know where you got that from but that’s not remotely correct
Pussy footing would not be used to describe something being stealthy, and is virtually exclusively a disapproving phrase
Isklar1993
Marginally better than mine
Starts the same… zero words spoken
I say hi, no response… I ask if people are having a nice day
“No” was the reply
“Oh no, how come?”
“Because you won’t stfu”
Good times had by all
😂😂

I always dpsing of healing as thought in reverse

“Forever will be different this time; it won’t be toxic” …
Isklar1993
Everyone always says this but I genuinely think it’s just because that’s what everyone says lol
Isklar1993
Yea that’s what I thought when looking at the specs, there’s just no way I can see it playing it well at all; especially in group content haha
Isklar1993
As someone that hates Mac, I’d consider myself unbiased in saying that Mac isn’t nearly as limiting as it used to be and almost everything relevant is compatible
That said, it won’t cope well for WoW forever, you’ll probably be able to quest and everything okay - probably will be a better choice if you plan to use it mostly for other stuff like movies and work but for wow it’ll be a struggling for even storage I think
Edit: others who have it seem to think it’s fine on classic though to be fair https://www.reddit.com/r/classicwow/s/vLaei9Bbcy
Isklar1993
I mean, you can watch a YouTube video playthrough of all of them and read wowhead for what everything does, it normally talks about bosses and dangerous mobs first
Isklar1993
I think it’s possible with something like this and playing on low graphics settings
Or
Wow is CPU heavy so focus on that
Isklar1993
I’d change that as well I think, I think my biggest limiter is the Ram
I have DDR4 and the price of DDR5 means I almost may as well buy a new Pc completely, so I don’t know if I buy a Razen 7 x3D and motherboard for maybe 400-500gbp or just call it a day
Isklar1993
I used to be able to run the settings so much higher though but since the last two expansions it’s go progressively worse :/
So I’m keen to upgrade something - sounds like AMD isn’t the way though - so I’ll stick to looking at i9 - I think my ram is DDR4 though so I guess ultra is actually out of the question in general
It’s funny how our brains work - I’ve not seen one person say “if you have 3 reds you need to find 1 red”
