| Posted: 04 Jul 2018 01:24 PM PDT Il gladly throw 800 of my gems at you for one of the alterac mounts, but you can put me in a dress and call me nancy before i spend 2k gems on a bundle for a single mount or skin i want, only to get a ton of other colors for the skin/mount that i will never use. Them being gems only is enough and not a problem at all, but why do we need to buy every damn blaze skin at once instead of selling them seperatly? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 04 Jul 2018 04:36 PM PDT I needed about 20k exp for a level up, so i decided to go for a training level Ai match, and among the tips in the tutorial was the fact that turrets work of an ammunion system >.< XD [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 04 Jul 2018 10:54 AM PDT I not asking for a rework just some change for his weaker talents. It's already 9 months since his release, until now only has received changes for his talents in one patch and didn't mattered.. Edit: Balancead = Decent WR , Pickarate in pro play and HL. Don't feel oppressive to play against. (My opinion of balancead hero..) [link] [comments]  | ||
| After playing a lot of Sgt. Hammer I just realized something Posted: 04 Jul 2018 09:24 PM PDT She has a hammer on her tool belt, and she waves it around when she is capturing in siege mode. I have her lvl 45 right now and never ever realized this . [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 04 Jul 2018 09:14 PM PDT ...because you "didn't have a way to clearly communicate it".. and then you kept talents which give temporary armor... but don't show it in the game, only in the talent description, if they happen to give only physical or spell armor, and the enemy must search through talents picked tab screen to know you have it?

| Missed opportunity: all Azmodan's Globe talents should be named after the seven deadly sins Posted: 04 Jul 2018 12:20 AM PDT When it comes to Azmo's dunk talents, we have:
You may start seeing a pattern, that is realised by the level 20 talent:
And then...
So there are four talents named after some of the seven deadly sins. And then there are three remaining talents that are not named after the remaining sins. If i can do the math right, there are total of seven globe talents, only some of which are named after the seven deadly sins. Referentially unplayable. [link] [comments]  | ||
| I'v been thinking about Tracer and what makes her not that fun to fight against. Posted: 04 Jul 2018 07:24 PM PDT Now i won't say it the exact problem, but i see most of the issue is her walk down killing, as she is able to sustain damage to her targets and it is even more effective on character who lack a mobility option. Yes, she can be CC to death by certain characters, but they might not be there and wont be a option. So i have been thinking of taking a page out of Smite mechanics and apply an attack move speed penalty. To sum it up Tracer would have a self slow active when she is attacking, kinda like D.Va in mech form where she has a 15% move penalty. I can't be for sure how much it should be I don't have the tools to try the theory. If this did happen, lets say a 10% penalty while attacking, i see a few thing that might happen. Users would have to use blink charges to secure kill more often for they will be out of range every so often, which can create opening to kill her more often the more she uses blink charges to keep up with a target. It could make her less attractive to pick, so some things will need to be compensated for it. I'm not sure I lack the tools to actually test it to see if it will help or not. [link] [comments]  | ||

| TIL that Dehakas Isolation does not reduce the vision of the Abathur clone Posted: 04 Jul 2018 12:05 PM PDT pretty much the title. I dont know if it is a bug or not. Technically the Isolation does not hit Abathur. It hits the Clone. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 04 Jul 2018 03:11 PM PDT List of heroes without a pink skin: *Abathur *Alarak *Alexstrasza *Ana *Artanis *Arthas *Azmodan *Blaze *Butcher *Cassia *Chen *Cho *Deckard Cain *ETC *Falstad *Fenix *Garrosh *Gazlowe *Genji *Greymane *Gul'dan *Hanzo *Illidan *Jaina *Johanna *Junkrat *Kael'thas *Kel'thuzad *Kharazim *Leoric *Lost Vikings *Maiev *Malfurion *Malthael *Medivh *Nazeebo *Ragnaros *Raynor *Rehgar *Rexxar *Samuro *Sgt Hammer *Sonya *Stiches *Sylvanas *Tassadar *Thrall *Tychus *Tyrael *Uther *Varian *Xul *Zagara *Zarya *Zeratul *Zul'jin There are lots of reds and purple skins, is it so much to ask that a couple more buttons get clicked when making tints? It's one more thing to throw into bundles for higher gem price, one more thing to take spots in lootboxes, some of us will happily burn shards on them.. And come on, tell me Lil' Ragnaros ouldn't be PERFECT in pink. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Can I change Yrel's abilities from "double press" to "press and release"? Posted: 04 Jul 2018 07:21 PM PDT She feels so clunky. Want to get an ability off quick (as with most of them the charge isn't useful), no can do. Just mashing buttons till it happens. Feels it would be much easier to press and release (or just to press once). I know there's a lot of interesting ability settings was wondering if this was on there! [link] [comments]  | ||

| Why bundle mounts are not available for shards? Posted: 04 Jul 2018 11:28 AM PDT It is the first time Blizzard is pulling such shit after 2.0 hit. Why can't we purchase them with shards? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Some numbers (and thoughts) on Raynor's new level 1 talents. Posted: 04 Jul 2018 11:51 AM PDT I was pretty excited for the Jimmy rework so I went on PTR to check things out. First, here are the level 1 talents
And this is what I noticed. When the new Raynor talents were revealed I certainly was interested in the quest talent at level 1 (Veteran Marksman) just because it seems more fun and it's like a minigame where you make sure every 4th hit you have you use to poke your enemy. But the truth is it doesn't hold a candle to Ace in the Hole. It's so much frontloaded damage (all damage, not just basic-attacks) and isn't gated behind a quest. Moreover, with his talent at level 7 (Unstable Compound) it attaches a 10% slow to his trait for 3 seconds. Not only does the slow apply before Give 'em Some Pepper does damage, the duration of the slow is just long enough that you can have 100% uptime on a hero even without using Inspire. So the level 7 talent essentially always applies Ace in the Hole to his trait, aside from targets that cannot be slowed like structures or bosses. While obviously there's a lot of utility involved with Exterminator, Veteran Marksman doesn't seem all that pickable to me. Here's what the damage looks like at level 20 hitting the training dummy. I do not have the Bounty Hunter talent (the new "giant killer" at level 16) The damage here is the end result of 4 attacks on the dummy. Three basic attacks and the attack with Give 'Em Some Pepper. Total damage of 4 attacks.
I stopped after that. Without using a spreadsheet, I'm not sure at what point Veteran Marksman would be better than Ace in the Hole across 4 attacks. All I can say is while it does remain to be seen, I'm going to take a wild guess and say 70+ stacks in a regular match is probably very unrealistic. Here's what 4 total auto attacks look like for Raynor with Ace in the Hole and Unstable Compound. Again, no giant killer at 16
Additional things I've noticed:
Is there something I'm missing here? Is there another utility by Veteran Marksman that isn't obvious to me? Otherwise Veteran Marksman or Ace in the Hole (or both) need to be changed to bring them closer together in power. [link] [comments]  | ||

| What is it about picking [[Water Dragon]] that turns people into salt mines? Even in winning games? Posted: 04 Jul 2018 03:58 PM PDT I genuinely want to know if I'm fucking up here. Supports are my favorite, and I love a good Li Li pick to counter lots of aa. I have a decent winrate with her, hardly ever die with her, and most of the time if I'm having no trouble healing by the time we reach 10 and my team seems smart in their positioning, I'll go Water Dragon. Its fun as hell to play, I have greater success/winrate with it, and most importantly I find it comes in handy way more than Jugs. Jugs takes a lot of control away from me because it prevents me from blinding while its active. Dragon allows me to secure kills and get my team out of a bad situation while still backing it up with heals and blinds - I love it. But, I've never had an ability pick on any other hero get me so much grief consistently when I pick it, even when we win most of the time with it. I was just in a very easily winning team, I was keeping everyone alive, and shutting down Raynor consistently, we only had 1 death from a dude who was solo pushing, but as soon as a Dragon came out, I started getting flamed. I tried to explain why I picked it and was just met with "lol whatever noob". We won that game and I was MVP but, like I said, this is a regular occurrence. It happens all the time when I pick it and nobodies even died from lack of heals. I'd like to chalk it up to "bronze-minded noobs don't know what they're talking about," but is there something there that I'm missing? When should I pick jugs without a doubt? When should I never pick dragons? [link] [comments]  |
