A Counter-Intuitive Idea For Tanks in LFR, Rohan, Blessing of Kings, 10/16/13.

Rohan notes that there’s room for bad healers or DPS in LFR but not tanks. He speculates that increasing the number of tanks (while keeping encounters tuned for two) would make tanking more forgiving and possibly yield more people queuing as tanks. It’s a great idea.

An Alternate Explanation for Gender Bias in Healing and Tanking, Rohan, Blessing of Kings, 10/8/13.

Here’s another fantastic piece by Rohan. He provides an alternate explanation on gender bias in which he speculates that women prefer to stay at range while men prefer melee. It’s interesting.

Thoughts on Garrosh Hellscream, Rohan, Blessing of Kings, 8/14/13.

Why do the orcs want to kill Garrosh? Why do players hate Garrosh but like Sylvanas? Rohan thinks that in lore, the orcs in general aren’t turning on Garrosh. As players, we like Sylvanas because she’s “all cool and calculating” while Garrosh “is a thug.” Players are more likely to identify with Sylvanas.

Flexible Raids, another requirement

Posted by Peter (Devee) on June 7, 2013

Posted in: Game Mechanics, Mists of Pandaria, Raiding, World of Warcraft. Tagged: blessing of kings, flexible raid, LFR, rohan, warcraft, world of warcraft, wow. 1 Comment

When Rohan at Blessing of Kings posted about variable group sizes in WoW, I thought it was a great idea that would likely never be implemented. I was wrong.

Blizzard just announced Flexible Raids. Flexible Raids is a new raid difficulty for 10-25 players. Loot works like LFR, and you can participate cross-realm, but there is no matchmaking service. The difficulty scales with the number of people in the group, and item level of gear will be between LFR and normal mode. In addition, Flexible Raids are on their own lockout.

What does this mean?

You’re no longer obligated to run either 10-man or 25-man raids. Guilds now have the flexibility to run with however many people they want.

Except that’s not quite true.

Let’s say a 25-man guild doesn’t have enough people to raid on a particular raid night. Yes, they could run a Flexible Raid. However, would it be better to run the flex as a whole group or send 10 people into normal mode where they’ll get better gear? Maybe it has to do with how many people are available. If there’s between 20 and 25, maybe they should try to run two normal modes. I don’t know; I’m not in a 25-man guild.

What about 10-man guilds? There are two scenarios to consider. First, what if there aren’t enough people to raid? Well, if we’re under 10 people, the Flexible Raid isn’t going to help. If we have more than 10 people, why would we want to get worse gear? Wouldn’t we rather the 10 more regular raiders have a chance at better gear in normal mode?

I think this is going to become another obligation. Blizzard says I’m not obligated to run LFR, but I still need a lot of gear from it even though I’m in a 10-man guild. While I don’t always do LFR, I try to run it every week. If the flex raid is going to drop better gear, shouldn’t I be doing it too? I suppose this could bond a different set of people. If 10 core guild raiders were online and wanted to raid, we could raid normal. If I wanted to do LFR, I could just queue. The flex raid would give me a reason to make friends with a wider community. Right now, I don’t interact with WoW players outside of my guild very often. There have been guilds in the past that PUG’d me regularly, but currently I’m not in touch with anyone. With flex raids feeling required but lacking a matchmaking service, I could see reaching out to other bloggers, for example, to add Battletag friends. But I have to be honest. Most weeks I don’t valor cap or complete LFR. What makes me think I have time to schedule a flex raid?

This seems really odd to me. I’d be ecstatic if they had followed Rohan’s idea of 7 to 13 people. Blizzard’s implementation won’t really help my guild and will likely feel like a burden I can’t fulfill. It’s an interesting first iteration of the scaling feature regardless. Even if I don’t have time to schedule anything, maybe a guildie will occasionally ask me to join a flex raid, but I don’t see it happening lately. It’s hard to judge a feature without experiencing it, but it seems to me that Blizzard took an interesting idea and executed it poorly.

Cynwise looks at how battleground scaling has only made balance worse in the lower-level brackets.

Diablo 3, the Auction House, and Efficiency, Rohan, Blessing of Kings, 3/2/13.

Rohan discusses the dangers of increasing efficiency too much. He also claims that there shouldn’t be shortcuts a game’s “central fun.” It’s a great idea. It also reminds me of some tweets I saw by Bennett (@bfod) who said “well, until they charged me money to skip over it, I wasn’t thinking of playing the game as being ‘grind’” and “since they’re charging money to skip it, I know it is grind. Even the developers think of it as grind. Playing it is a penalty.” He goes on to say “here’s how it works-if you pay to play more, you’re seeing play as being valuable. If you pay to play less, you’re thinking of it as a grind” (2/27/13).

A break from dailies, Arioch, clearcasting, 10/24/12.

Arioch recounts The Boon of A’dal, the quest in Icecrown about a dying crusader and the help of A’dal. It’s a great quest, and I liked reading Arioch’s response.

A Disconnect on Valor Gear, Rohan, Blessing of Kings, 10/21/12.

Rohan wonders if Blizzard views Valor gear as completely optional because the best route for PvE is from dungeons and raids while players don’t trust RNG and feel faction Valor gear is required. Interesting idea.

EVE Online player loses tiny ship worth over $6,000, Brendan Drain, Massively, 10/22/12.

This is why you don’t transport a huge amount of valuable goods in a small, ill-armed ship.

Guild Wars 2 writer laments racial lopsidedness, Justin Olivette, Massively, 10/16/12.

Humans are the most common GW2 race followed by norn (big humans). This makes me really sad, because some of the races are pretty interesting. I can’t believe more people don’t want to be charr or sylvari!

Questgiver PSA, Typhoon Andrew, TyphoonAndrew’s – Eye of the Storm, 10/12/12.

Please, everybody give this quick post a read!

The Monster Power System allows players to increase the power of monsters in order to increase some stats and drops.

“Guide Dog” player and sightless guild-mate honored with in-game items, Olivia Grace, WoW Insider, 9/26/12.

Back in January, WoW Insider reported on British soldier Ben Shaw (Hexu) who was blinded by shrapnel in Iraq. He continued raiding in WoW thanks to his friend Owen (Davidian) who guides him in the game. Blizzard has now honored them with in-game items. Hexu’s Amplifying Helm with flavor text, “A man with a friend is never without vision,” and Davidian’s All-Seeing Eyes with flavor text, “Sharp enough to see for two men.” Such an amazing story!

Blizzard releases The Story of Warcraft, Anne Stickney, WoW Insider, 9/21/12.

Anne reports on Blizzard’s new The Story of Warcraft, an online account of the past history of the Warcraft series. It looks terrific, but I haven’t had a chance to read it yet.

Catch Up Mechanics, Rohan, Blessing of Kings, 9/20/12.

Matticus thinks that in-combat resurrection spells should be removed from the game, but Rohan disagrees. He feels that they allow people to catch up after making mistakes and is important. Without them, raid groups would be forced to call wipes after one error.

Getting started with your legendary in Mists, Anne Stickney, WoW Insider, 9/25/12.

If you’re interested in legendaries, you might want to give this a read.

Warlocks, Trash Your Keybinds, Cynwise, Cynwise’s Warcraft Manual, 8/28/12.

This is actually good advice for every class in my opinion. A new expansion is a time to rethink how you play.

F2P, Subscriptions, Raiding, and Community, Rohan, Blessing of Kings, 8/27/12.

Rohan makes some good observations about the current subscription policy for TOR. By making the game F2P but requiring raiders to subscribe, raid leaders can be assured that their raiders are actually committed to the game.

5.0.x and Mists of Pandaria: Holy and Discipline Priest Info, Matticus, World of Matticus, 8/27/12.

Matticus gives a great guide for healing priests in MoP.

What do I know about other classes and specs?, TyphoonAndrew, TyphoonAndrew’s – Eye of the Storm, 8/28/12.

TyphoonAndrew uses humor to show exactly what he knows about other classes. I feel the same way often.
