Haha just reading his other tweets, this guy is fucking clueless, I knew he's terrible, but this is a joke. Wow
He's also starting to get mad it seems, everybody telling him 1shots are stupid and his reply: ITZ NOT A 1SHOT IF YOU DIE IN 2 HITZ

[Nez]

I read wow blue posts for comedic purposes.

Resil will fix this.

Taken out of context. If you read the actual post this was referring to, you would see what he really meant.
Ive basically been reading everything he posted since MoP, and i'm kind of impressed by how he sees things, considering people tend to hate him so much.

He posts hundreds of tweets every day, most of which are absolutely correct. People take the maybe one or two which are not and post them everywhere

When I'm playing my warrior, and I see that I got 3 stacks with all my CDs up, I know I have already won the game if that next heroic strike crits. I absolutely hate this. Doesn't matter which target i choose to attack, it will die. Pop all CDs, heroic leap 80k damage, shockwave 100k damage, heroic strike 250k+ damage. doesn't matter what target.
The thing about this is, it's not the only class doing it. If a mage at any point can get a frostbomb on you (100k+) explode that shit with fireblast (40k+) and then follow it up with a frostfire bolt (70k+) you are pretty much in the same boat, but they can do this way more often. don't forget chaos waves critting for 220k+. this is all with pretty decent gear.

It can go both ways, but playing my healer right now is the worst i've ever played because the damage on absolutely everything is retarded.

not sure where i was going with this, i guess tl;dr all damage on everything is too high.

it doesn't matter whether he is technically right or wrong on one shots. people are getting globaled, and if they're not getting globaled they are getting killed in one CC, which is ridiculous too. of course, the problem with people not dying in one CC now is that healing can be almost as ridiculous as well, topping people off in a global or two as well. it's just terrible design.

Explains how someone got their r1 title by geting accoutns (if u know what i mean)

I am getting 1 shotted by either a mage or warrior, when my life is at 180k (half).
That's not the conventional definition of one-shotted. Many abilities hit for 100k. It's when you get to 400k that no counter.

So according to ghostcrawler, as long as no one can hit for 400k you can always counter the damage......

Pre-disc buff. I was still quite surprised.

Design phase: "we want health pools to slowly drain and fill like buckets of water"

Release phase: "There are no one shots. 2 or 3 shots maybe."


what happened

[Natokni]

I've gemmed full resil and have 65% resil and still die in 1-2 seconds in random charge stuns or DR'd deeps. This game is a joke I'm surprised anyone takes it seriously anymore. I had 3 games in a row where I got 2-3 100k + lances in a row with 65.02% resil during a blanket or deep and just flopped over. Damage in general is just a joke I feel like people are rewarded for mongo trinketing first CC and going all in with offensive cds.


I'm not sure why a stun has to crit over 100k and how a ranged auto attack is doing 23k? I think shadow priests are the most ridiculous at the moment though.

Not sure you've ever done a instant mind blast into 3 orb DP with on use. Its okay though must not see a lot of action on retaliation as it is the most backwater of all backwaters.

[Snipin]

This guy must have the reaction times and awareness of a fucking god. Monitoring enemy warriors TFB procs... COUNTERING CHAOS WAVE.

We clearly all must be doing it wrong, and need to l2p and adapt.

jk 5.06 and 5.1 are a fucking pathetic joke

edit:
it's not even just warriors, locks, and mages either. every single class has the ability to do absolutely ridiculous damage

Like I said a couple of times, the way to get health pools to drain and fill, is to nerf damage and healing across the board by 20 or 30%.

Thats not going to change anything at all. The game HAS to be less burst reliant and more about sustained damage. 200k+ crits with cooldowns up compared to 8k whitehits is not something that should ever be in the game.
Also, I seriously believe that no one at Blizzard plays PvP at decent levels. They are hiding their profiles, not showing you how they actually play the game.
Compare that to League of Legends and Riot: You can lookup pretty much any employee playing their game and most of them have actually decent high ratings (not world best or something, but not the drooling keyboardturning kind of players that i imagine GC to be.) and their game is insanely well balanced.
