Encrypted Text: Breaking down tier 12

May 18th 2011 3:08PM (WoW)
Completely agree re: the current climate of rogue DPS. It infuriates me that I can play my class very well and still be consistently pwned in the meters by undergeared hunters who admittedly barely know their class.

I bring little to no utility to the raid. All of that utility is theoretically given up because I have the potential to do extremely high DPS. That's how it's supposed to work in theory. Otherwise, why would I even play a rogue? Why would anyone want me on their raid team if that's not true? Good question. Unfortunately there's no answer, as certain classes with a ton of utility consistently out DPS us on almost every fight. And you can tell me I suck all you want, but the World of Logs averages across the servers don't lie.

So you win, Blizzard. I've played a rogue since beta and I'm currently gearing up a hunter to replace me. It's clear from my 80+ abilities that you either want me to (1) PvP; or (2) become a terrible 25 second avoidance off-tank anyway.

@pickupdoctor I didn't realize there were so many whiny PS3 fanboys on Joystiq. Do you guys cry and write angry emails every time the guys joke about the PS3 connection on the podcast?

@HairyToeKnuckles That's a pretty good idea. Kind of weird that it would work since both the PC and the PS3 are on the same network, but I'll give it a shot.

@mmmfishtacos Not really. If you listen to the podcast or, you know, use the internet, you probably know that it's an ongoing joke that the PS3 connection is awful, often taking an hour to download relatively small patches across the board.

Completely agree. I was a hardcore raider in the original EQ and after redownloading it for nostalgic reasons a few months back, I was baffled by the insane clunkiness.

And sure, you can tell yourself that the spell slot restrictions are "strategic," but the fact of the matter is that most people don't have the patience for that type of arbitrary restriction anymore, including me. If the game needs restrictions like that, the devs are doing something wrong.
