I almost cried when I found this guy. His name is Windle Sparkshine. He walks around Dalaran and lights the street lights. Every time he does, an image of his daughter appears. Her name was Kinddy Sparkshine. She was a victim of Garrosh during Tides of War.

I finally understand why WoD was the worst expansion

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 09:03 AM PDT

I played on Horde and the first zone is nothing but quests around dogs dying ;-;

Fuck those assholes who killed those dogs

I even got a quest to find this pups parents and the father was dead ;-;

Then got a quest where I found someone and her dog was just chilling and some asshole on a flying mount tossed a spear and killed it.

I finally understand the animosity towards WoD

Edit: My shitpost was ruined by people actually hating on WoD ;-;

So who am I meant to be slaying?

Legions been out almost a year now what are the general thoughts of it after WoD

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 09:14 AM PDT

Personally I feel Legion fixed all of my issues with WoD and is as good as MoP, TBC, and Wotlk. The expansion is filled with fanservice and for the most part good intentions. I didn't enjoy the AP grind but other then that everythings been great. Dungeons are fun and raids are some of the best i've seen since playing from vanilla

To the guy who trade me the Resto Shaman hidden appearance last night in EoA. You're a good dude.

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 07:00 AM PDT

I was running heroic EoA (again) last night with the long standing hope of getting my hidden artifact appearance for Sharas'dal. This guy was running as enhance and had it drop for him on the first boss. I asked him if he had it already and he said he didn't so I just said gratz and that was there for it myself. He offered to give it to me and he followed through on his offer!

At the end of the dungeon he said all he needed was a /hug so I obliged. But I wish I had a screenshot with his name so I could at least send him a pet or something that has some value. If you are out there, or maybe in this guy's guild and he mentioned it, please message me!

Spring Blossoms is broken, pls fix!

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 03:43 AM PDT

On yesterdays Mythic sisters progression I realized an issue with the restoration druids talent "Spring Blossoms".

TLDR: Spring Blossoms is the factor that determines which target gets healed by Efflorescence. So if a target has the SB HoT, but is not at full health, it CANNOT be healed by Efflo because of the HoT.

For those unfamiliar with it - Spring Blossoms makes your Efflorescence leave a small HoT on the targets it heals. That means that on every tick of Efflorescence, 3 targets will be affected by the Spring Blossoms HoT. Since it has a duration of only 6 seconds, its usually not possible to get SB rolling on the entire Raid. This however changes if you use Flourish as your lv 100 talent (which is your default choice in 99% of the raids). Flourish extends the duration of all active HoTs by 6 seconds and thus allowing you to get SB rolling on the entire raid.

And this is where the problem begins. Due to the mechanic of SB, Efflorescence always tries to heal targets that are not already affected by SB to maximize the HoT uptime. Since all of our raiders are affected by SB, Efflorescence starts to heal all kinds of pets, demons and other summoned creatures, because those are the only targets where the SB HoT is not present. This leads to alot of misplaced healing, especially during phases where you want to maximize your healing with Flourish. Proof can be found in this log:

https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/compare/gWr9Pp2yBTqdh8QC/gWr9Pp2yBTqdh8QC#fight=26,26&source=4,3&type=healing&ability=81269

On the left (Neroky) is my healing without the SB talent, which leads to Efflorescence only healing raid members, because they are not at 100% life. On the right side however (Dschadscha) you can see that his Efflorescence heals alot of useless pets and other stuff (mostly overhealing them, since they are full health anyways). This is due to the fact that he uses Flourish to extend existing SB HoTs on the raid, leading to everyone beeing affected by it. That results in Efflorescence healing the pets.

This log is especially good to show this issue since we both used Efflo 16 times, and we both used Swiftmend 20 times (Druids use swiftmend to empower Efflorescence with their 4pc), but my Efflorescence heals almost double the amount of his, while mine is doing 31% overhealing and his is doing 60% overhealing.

So please Blizzard, fix the Spring Blossoms talent in a way that it doesn't affect pets and summoned creatures anymore but instead just refreshes the HoT on raid members, because in its current state its not just useless, its effectively lowering your healing!

WOULD PLEASE SOMEONE BE SO KIND AND POST THAT ON US FORUMS, SINCE I ONLY PLAY ON EU?

Edit: Added a TLDR

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 08:10 AM PDT

If you look at the launcher and read beyond the standard message, it mentions that authentication servers are going to be affected between 7:00am and 10:00am PST.
