Patch 4.0.1 (Rant)

SerenesSerenes Member UncommonPosts: 351

Okay, I turn on my computer I had already downloaded the patch with the Background Downloader I'm excited about to hit up some 4.0.1. I click my Launcher it starts to apply the patch then bam "Cannot Find World Of Warcraft. Please Make sure the game is installed Correctly" Okay thats never happaned before so I look on google it says this is a common problem just fix your registery keys I fix them and the patch applies! Then the launcher kicks up again and says "Downloading Streaming Patch" I thought okay please tell me blizzard is not stupid enough to stream a game... Turns out they are. It took it 3 Hours just to let me play then a 10min Loading screen in to Dalaran. Okay that was just all the Tech Issues with the new patch on Server everything seemed to run smooth.

 

So, here I am on my Rogue 6.4k GS I was around 11k on Dummies no buffs Pre Patch. I was prepared to loose 1k maybe gain 1k.... I can now barly pull 7k on the Dummy I thought it was my spec I go around asking and Appreantly rogues got punched in the face hardcore well combat rogues. Also this goes before the DPS thing my gems.... I was ArP spam like any other combat rogue pre patch.... They turned all my Gems into Crit gems which is the worse stat.... the WORSE Stat I could use. Fine Whatever my rogue is screwed in the A.

 

I switch on over to my Warrior... this went downhill before I even looked at anything my stats were wacky my Rage was bad. My gems were crit gems.... so my warrior is fucked also... fine whatever.

 

The only good thing was my priest is now retardedly OP... My Druid is about the same... Maybe alittle worse....

 

My Warlock friend has also been complaining about hes DPS he says he has lost about 1k... What have they done just went and fucked up all the classes.

 

Hunter is the only class that I have seen that pulls more DPS and they are bitching about not having mana....

 

Agh the stat change could have waited untill Cata when my gear was going to be crap anyways.. I'm done ranting.

    People keep forgetting that Blizzard them selves said that class' will be unbalanced till 85. Rogues, Cat's and Warrior's relied on Armor Pen. So of course they are ganna get hit the worst. I bear tank, logged on to tank a heroic and omg different. Bear's complaining up to wazzoo but you can see at lv 81 we get another bear ability. It will be balanced again, sheesh...

    Ghostcrawler has stated that hotfixes are rolling in and more will follow. Warriors, cats, ret pallies and rogues have had damage buffed up; casters have been given a round of nerfs. Here.

       Not sure what your warlock friend's problem is but I am pulling more DPS than ever on my warlock. Give it time it will balance out. I have been playing the beta. Level 85 BGs are what you would normally expect.

    My DK was blood before the patch, it relied heavy on ArP, I was pullin around 9k dps. After the patch I"m pulling like 4.5k because the spec is completely strange. But I think of it in a different way I guess, there isn't a point in getting mad, you just gotta learn how to dps using the newer specs. Newer rotations that you make yourself. It just makes it fun again.

    You have a strange sense of self censorship :)

     

    Someone mentioned that they did some hotfixes . . or that they are coming. . would they not know the impact of what they had done?  I am not currently playing WoW. . but as mad as you might be . . and you might decide to quit the game. . someone else will come along to fill your spot.  That someone might be 8 1/2 , but its still $15.  Remember, hard core gamers cost the company more. . they use more server time and they demand more content for the same $15 a month.  They want the kids that play a few hours a week.

    Wa min God! Se æx on min heafod is!

    Then, please do us all a favor and unsub. Perhaps the community will finally improve without certain "spoiled" folks chatting in my trade channel everyday.

    Now EVERYBODY has the SAME tree till what? 56 or something? That should really make for great PVP'ing lol.

    These ASS HOLES, (Blizzard) signed their own death warrent with any serious gamers but WOW the 10 yr olds r crazy over them!

    (note to staff) how can we remind these children to pay that pesky monthly bill?

     

    Age has nothing to do with the game changes. Their goal is accessibility to as many people as possible, which means appealing to children, teenagers, and adults alike. Your volley of age-based insults only serves to make you seem more immature than the ones you're bashing.

    Yeah, the ArP classes got hit pretty hard by the change. Most folks should regem / reforge for the changes as well. My ret pally got a tremendous buff by the Hotfixes rolled last night. I got a 27k HoW today (*hopes Blizz does not notice*).
