If this shit goes live in a near future as 30% I'm going to fucking leave the game.

If will be better wasting my money on Habbo or some crappy game. 12 euros for cloths and other crap...

I bet it was Fucking Bobby Kotick that made this shit, I hope he dies with Hemorrhoids

The zone buff is an alright idea, but 30% is a little excessive. I understand that Blizz wants everyone regardless of skill level to see end game content, but 30% is pretty much doing all the hard work for them.

I think that's what annoys hardcore players the most. It's not that the game starts too easy or anything, it's just that Blizz has to dumb everything down after a while so that even Little Johnny the Huntard who has a 15% void zone survivability rate will get to do what the hardcore players worked their butts off to do. I sort of agree with this sentiment--part of the incentive to be hardcore was to do something that not a lot of other people got to do. It was in itself an achievement. Doing the Hard Mode of a fight or downing a fight first without the 30% (or even 5%) buff is still an accomplishment compared to the people who need the 30% to get anything done, but it's not really the same. A hard mode is still the same fight, same content. It's just that the rules slightly change.

Because of this, I think Blizzard should take a look at what they did with Algalon, because I consider that a huge success. It's a Hard-Mode Only boss, which means it's something only the hard-mode/hardcore players will get to see and kill it in its current tier of progression. It's slightly against Blizz's new philosophy of let every average Dick and Jane do what Paragon can do, but it was just such a good bone to throw to the hardcore raiders. Algalon was a fun and exciting fight and if you fought him in T8 you knew that you were a baller. The Average Joes still got to see all of Ulduar's content, but Algalon was reserved for the top tier. I liked that, Blizz should do something like that a lot more often.

I did read it properly, and it reads that not only will haste continue to affect melee white hits, bit it will also affect their resource generation, which means the time between yellow attacks will now be decreased aswell.

Hmm, good point with that. That one word might make a difference. Kind of hoping it'll come through like that, actually.. we'll see.
