  1. Oh my…With each passing day Shadowlands smell more and more like a cat poop mixed with the sauerkraut and baby vomit, which was left to bake on the sun for several weeks.

    Or was it baby poop and cat vomit?

    Meh… details…

  2. that mythic + re farm you are talking about is one of the reasons I am against mythic + being a gearing thing instead of a challenge thing for looks and stuff through the xpanision. I miss knowing yoru bis and getting something new every patch. I have not liked that the dungeons upgrade ilvl every patch its one of the things that killed proffessions and the AH this past xpac they need to end that and go back to wod and before how gearing works to be honest.

  3. Your take on the Vault is severely misguided and I've never been more disappointed in your extremely casual viewpoint on the subject. Let the players that want to complete all 9 activities get 9 choices if they so choose. If YOU only want to do 5 or 6, then that is your CHOICE. You even talk about player agency in this video and yet are giving hypocritical responses to it in the Vault segment. I normally love your videos and hit them all with the Like button, but not this time T&E.

  4. You are so wrong on the interpretation of chests wowhead data mined it it is worst case need 15 keys to get three choices and it choses from the range of keys ie if you do a 15 and a 2 it picks from anywhere from 15-2

  5. I have some unpopular opinions and first is I disagree that it should be the top 3 keys. the choice imo is meant to be a reward for doing that content. at this time I expect it to be 1, 5, 10.(latest datamined numbers) but also I prefer it that way personally. so you aren't forced to grind lower content for speed efficiency. I agree it's probably better to have a cap tho but I also disagree that it should only give dungeons items.

  6. I don't like that covenants, soulbinds, etc are not easily changed. One minute I my be doing 2's, next RBG's, next mythic+ or raid, this means I am going to have to choose what areas I want to feel gimped in…

  7. The Great Vault is actually a wonderful idea, all we need is Non-BfA style Mythic Raids and Dungeons to make sure it stays wonderful. The Conduit System just needs to be a reflection of our old talent trees. Not too hard to make sure these stay great.

  8. havent played since panda, yesterday i played retail and today also a bit…its just…frustrating, you dont know where to lvl, how to get there, the stuff that lvls with you can be upgraded i learned after doing 2 lvls…the prices are insane to buy more than 2 upgrades for lvl 100. Its so much catching up to do. blizz demands a lot from returning players and its just not fun at all.

    I liked the Pyro Mage a lot, Outlaw rogue is …okay at best, Demo warlock completely ass, they totally destroyed my favorite build in all of wow for a new class…wich i dont want to play.

    Blizz demands too much for returning players, the dungeons feel like, time equals lvl up, nothing more nothing less.
    No challange no chatting no fun.

    Finding groups takes a lot of time, my servers went all from full to middle or low, yet i still experienced a lot of lag even just for writing text in chat.

    Im gonna make the most out of the month i ordered it, then wait for burning crussade…because classic is only fun as melee.(open world PvP)

  9. I really feel like they will just leave this in place for about half the expansion and then remove it. I feel as if this is their way of making the game more about learning things slowly and experiencing things instead of everyone just trying to blow through everything.

  10. I’m just excited that they’re taking out rep exp to unlock the allied races. I preordered the bfa expansion and just recently unlocked one allied race. Not everyone has the time and day to just go on there and grind rep exp to get something out of an expansion. So excited to just complete the quest line for that race and unlock it.

  11. once a week conduit swap is stupid. If you have one setup you need to raid and another you prefer for other activities, you can never swap… you wont be able to swap back in time for your next raid. RIP. Also I dont agree with Evitel about the Vault system. She says if you kill 10 raid bosses youre bound to have gotten some good loot during your raid. Ok… but you complete 15 M+ keys during a week, 4 out of 5 people in the group are going to get loot from each run, so you could already have gotten 15 pieces of gear during the week to unlock that vault slot as well. Raids should offer raid gear, + should offer dungeon gear, pvp should offer PvP gear. If you want more chance at raid gear, then raid.

  12. Why… just why… all these new fucking systems and gimmicks man! why not just bring depth back to the game! Classic is an infinitely more enjoyable leveling experience! Why not try to make the retail game more like Wrath or BC, you know, back when you had 13 million subs…. and not 1…. These corporate morons will drive the game into the ground, we dont want gimmicks, we want gameplay.
