Re: World of Warcraft
Funny how I literally just finished writing a paper considering WoW (from a marketing perspective though).
Whether or not one likes these types of changes is really a question of what version of WoW one originally liked. I for one enjoyed BC and WotLK so removing hit/expertise and reforging just seems absolutely ridiculous to me. Having those in the game made it so that you actually had to think about what kind of gear to get and what to do with it instead of just receiving Generic Item X however many times there are item slots. P.S. PvE in a nutshell. |

I also didn't like getting into arguments over which piece of gear was better for which person when it dropped, and having to stop after every boss to have people who got new gear head back to down to get it reforged, gemmed and enchanted before continuing. |

Re: World of Warcraft
Started playing retail the same time Izzy did, though I had to start from level 1. I'm level 77 currently. I don't have any opinions on battlegrounds or pvp yet because I don't want to judge it until I'm level 90.
But the pet battles, and upcoming farmville shit makes this game seem stupid. I also like it to be difficult to obtain gear, and it sounds like its very easy. I'll have a real opinion in a week or two I guess. |

On the topic of raids, LFR killed half the fun of doing raids for me. It became just another weekly chore instead of this epic event that requires loads and loads of planning to work. It was fun for a while but damn ;w; |

Of course this was also a level of srs business that made it so if you didn't have the movement speed buff enchant on your boots, you weren't allowed in the raid. |

Re: World of Warcraft
I was kinda being sarcastic, when I think of movespeed being mandatory in raids, I think of people who can't react fast enough to get out of aoe

Re: World of Warcraft
Whereas I think of getting to where you need to be faster so you can resume your full DPS output faster, especially in fights with a lot of movement. a 25-man raid group getting an extra half second every 15 or 20 seconds adds up to a lot of damage across 6 minutes.

Re: World of Warcraft
I've always been a caster, so it's never been an issue to save instant-casts (or oGCDs that make your spells instant-cast) for heavy movement. I've also briefly played as melee dps and maybe once had problems with disconnects.
I can totally understand using movespeed if you're still learning the fight or if that's the only buff for boots. Not too versed in consumables in WoW |

Re: World of Warcraft
I would assume you would end up doing more damage with a damage enchant on your boots instead of attacking for 1 extra second. So I agree that if you know the script that it shouldn't be an issue to not have a speed increase.

And believe me, 100 crit rating doesn't do NEARLY as much as a move speed increase saving you 10 or 12 seconds in a fight, when your DPS are doing 180,000 damage per second. |

Re: World of Warcraft
Is 100 crit rating all you can get from a boot enchant? That seems less than the crit gems you can get.
