    if NA/EU gap would be that big of a deal then Echo would move to US already

    Funny, they actually thought about this. But they don't wanna give up their life.

    Trans atlantic latency is real.

    And if you mean physically, there's plenty reasons to not consider it.

    there is bunch of EU players in top NA guilds already, and Max just said that painsmith is literally the first boss that EU ping was an a bit of an issue for them

    so at least until now it wasnt a problem

    Having a handful of players on your team vs a full roster isn't comparable. Often the situation will present itself as a minor issue that can be corrected by other people on a more local connection, and there's times where you simply have to work around certain people not taking on certain roles, especially when there's a flare up on the latency.

    Painsmith is the latter dialled up to 11.

    It is 100% true and irrefutable. Sunwell was timegated.

    I mean, didn't the timegate only kick in after Felmyst? So that's more than one boss a week in week 1.

    Regardless, timegating was a terrible mechanic, every time it reared its ugly head. The content itself is significantly easier than modern raiding.

    Being time-gated does not equal being difficult, which is what I was referring to. I'm starting to suspect you're just trolling so w/e

    Why do people here so willingly and greedily take bait? Seriously this forum is almost impressively bad at detecting sarcasm or when people are blatantly baiting for reactions or epic memes, I've never seen anything quite like it.

    What's up with Imexile? Did he just join Limit to be a backup?

    Nah, people on private servers buff Sunwell and still slam their dicks on it. Sunwell isn't hard or timegated.

    Dude, Echo just went to sleep and Blizzard nerfed Painsmith. You were right, Blizzard wants Limit to win. Damn.

    I mean it's world first topic. It's quite normal to see all old cliche things being posted on that topic. Bozelprogress was one of things that started in this topic. I just can't remember how long ago it was. Quite a while I guess.

    No, they just announced the nerfs. They have been in effect since the beginning of the day.

    At least quote what you're responding to. Blizz obviously is watching this thread and me especially as I have pointed out their push for Echo.

    Yes, this is what I mean. Look how hard they are pushing Limit? It's crazy.

    No. They pushed for Echo last night with the late Dormazain nerfs so that Limit got no time on Painsmith. I called them out and they saw that and want to make it fair.

    I have followed the world first race professionally since Molten Core. I know how this works.

    Yeah true. Most of the bosses are too easy. The only hard boss in Castle Nathria was Stone Legion Generals. Even Denathrius as a last boss was easy. It was basically dodge, and soak. WoW 101. I enjoy harder fights like Stone Legion Generals, and Mekkatorque. Oh KJ and Uunat as well.
