    Nether disruptor building timing - Can punish your raiding guild by RNG

    Want the extra rolls in Mythic/Heroic NH?

    Is your guild raiding Farm bosses on Wednesday reset day?

    Well if the Nether disruptor is built on a Thursday in the middle of the night, the chances of you being able to actually use the chance of return seals on meaningful stuff is likely very low, unless you can convince your whole guild to change their organisation to only begin raiding at the time the disruptor is built. (like starting the raid week on a sunday)

    Thats not an option for many raiding guilds, where at least 20 people have to agree on the same specific time spaces.

    Yeah, you might just say, too bad "boohoo" dirty raiders. But honestly how is this not a problematic design. Sure the RNG timing might favor your schedule, but it might also simply be a wasted building that you actually looked forward to. I dont really care if this is a 1st world luxury problem or not important unless you are the famous 0,0001%. It is simply annoying from the very principle of how its implemented.

    In other news, I stubbed my toe this morning and this has to be Blizzard's fault.

    I mean its a chance to get your coin back... its pretty shitty. I did every M0 and every LFR and every N and H EN/ToV/NH and got like 13 tomes with mage tower. I probably won't get 1 coin back during the nether so w/e fuck that thing.

    It doesn't punish your guild, you just didn't get to profit from it this time. Next time it might be built on a tuesday and everything is okay. As long as it isn't up 100% of the time some people won't be able to benefit from it. So your point is that all buildings should always be up for your convenience or else it's "problematic design" or will your next topic be how it is "problematic design" that you bonus rolled twice and didn't get one back so rng "punished" you?

    Punishing I would think is taking something away you had before.
    This is offering a bonus.

    Not unlike the frequent misuse of the term "forced".

    Do I agree that it is poor design which will favour some raiders over others ?
    Yes, but I don't think saying it "punishes" you is even close to being true.

    LOL at people acting like it is a simple bonus. It is designed to be something you work towards in order to benefit your character. It's like if you kill a raid boss but oops, you killed it on Wednesday and only people who kill it on Thursday get loot this week. Before any of you fanboys say a chance at a free roll isn't as important as boss drops, I'm not saying it is, but that is how this system is working. It is stupid.

    A. what raid group has a 3 day gap between raids? let alone a wensday, dont like 80% of groups do tues and thurs or friday?
    B. Its the communities fault for not listening to blizz and all rushing for the mage tower thinking it would give a rep bonus, and that everyone could get the skin
    C. This will be best used in M+ As really we dont know the % chance yet to get back the token...
    D. omfg they are giving us a bonsu, but it isnt super op, fuck you blizz

    If you have to spend 4 fucking weeks to get a bonus you should be able to fucking get to benefit from it. You fanboys are insufferable.

    But you didn't spend "4 fucking weeks" to get it.

    You're assuming everyone is playing in NA.
    EU raids on reset day; Wednesday. Most guilds raid on Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday think.

    Exactly, 100% correct.

    Sheesh, some people need to wake up and stop feeling so entitled!

    Hm, there are more than enough coins that you can get in addition to the "free" 3 in Dalaran every week... why would something as meh as "has a chance to refund a spent coin" be detrimental to your raid?

    And your blind, completely misinformed hatred over literally fucking nothing is...what? Super fucking productive? Groundbreaking and original?

    ...you know what? Now that I think about it, I doubt anybody has ever -- since the beginning of time -- been upset with a game developer over the way they do things. Man, it sure must be nice to be one of the few rebellious WoW players to stand up against our oppressive Blizzard overlords. I hope you wear your badge of honor proudly because it's heroes like you who help keep us safe!

    so if it popped midnight wensday, then they get thursday, to use bonus rolls, and the second raid is usally when people use the most bonus rolls

    first day= farm and abit of progression= bosses you allready have tons of loot from
    second day= maybe some minor farm, mostly progression, meaning bosses you need loot from
    third day= hard progression, the boss you have not downed before and hope to down

    Guilds are still doing farmraids?

    Shouldn't they either be progressing almost exclusively (since additional gear isn't needed at this point) or be done with progress in which case it doesn´t matter anymore?

    OP have problems with understand what "punish" is. Lol.
    That's not an issue. Bonus is provided - your guild choose to not use it.
