As a reply to the original post...

I had a healer last night that basically came out and said

"If you play this like you all have in Wrath we are all going to die, learn to CC and mark targets"

Seems like a good disclaimer.

I play both DPS and a tank. As a tank I make it a point to tell people I am not going balls to the walls like I use to in Wrath. I know by now which areas will wipe if I do things incorrectly. Healers appreciate this, DPS seems to be taking a while to catch on.

So far I haven't seen anyone blame the healers. I must be lucky in that regard.

I love this thread, even if for no other reason than exposing me to the term "mouth-breather."


I find it both potently descriptive and hilarious.

Oh we're good. I just hadn't come across that particular term before, and the image it projects is just so strikingly... accurate; I had to comment on it.

LOL internet memes that have staying power do indeed have that characteristic of being strikingly accurate - as this one indeed does.

Another one is "Neckbeard". Best reference is Kevin Smith's character in "Live Free or Die Hard". Now that was a neckbeard!

It's not any fun. Their whole Cataclysm concept for healing revolves around casing a 2.2+ second heal 90 to 95 percent of the time. The dynamic feel of WoW is gone.



That's the key. The mechanics just aren't fun right now.
