Watching Max "Close Off" When He Realized Its Not RACE TO BEST ADDONS anymore

[Aurrora]

That's fair, I suppose I should have clarified I mean on this forum.
By the looks of it it's the certain extremely casual posters thinking it's just the addons preventing them from raiding on CE level.
Same with the rotation helper thing. Certain extremely casual individuals acting like this is the thing that will elevate them to CE level.

CE level raider here and yes, the discrepancy between having someone in your guild that can write an addon to trivialize a mechanic and those that don't is a serious issue. WoD's Mythic Archimonde is an example of where the addon arms race got out of hand leading to api restrictions.

But for these people not having a person to write an addon for them is the least of their issues.
We're talking about people who aren't raiding but think they would be playing on CE level if it wasn't for addons.
They aren't one boss short because they don't have a guy to make them an addon, they have never stepped into a mythic raid.

What do you mean they "write" it?
Even most HoF guilds just take the addon packs echo/liquid/method/northern sky etc. release after the race.

Exactly what I said, write it. We had one of our guild members trying to code an addon for wrought chaos during Archimonde progression before it had been released.

Progressing the last mythic boss at the same time with Echo and Liquid is even further from being an issue to the people we're talking about...

I am repeating my question.
Why do people who can't mythic raid even with addons care so much about this?

No amount of addons will allow me to raid above group finder normals/HCs so I don't bother with sims or addons.
The place I think it's truly a big problem is PvP, way more than PvE. Addons aren't just a barrier to "be better" they are a hard requirement for even entry level arena play.

Yeah pvp is definitely its own beast and has an actual barrier of entry made of addons.

You intentionally misheard literally the next 1 minute? Please tell me if you dumb on purpose or trolling. Implying you quote things out of context I'm pretty safe to assume here that you also hear only stuff you wanna hear. Seek help and don't be a hallucinoid online.

Now sure how you got confused, but the chain of responses you were responding to here got started by someone claiming they were getting rid of all addons, not just combat ones. So being needlessly aggressive when people correct you that they're not getting rid of cosmetic addons is kind of ridiculous, especially given you then said:

Nothing will happen to cosmetic stuff. Feel free to quote me on that later Im pretty confident on this one. They're appropriating existing popular stuff wa, dbm, damage meters you call it and making it a built-in thing.

[Lahis]

They aren't and they exactly said so...
40:00 exact mark


Now shut up with the made up BS please, it's pathetic.

They explitly siad they want to restrict any combat related activities AddOns can do, but cannot do it before the base UI has reached bare minimum functionality.

So combat AddOns will die, it is just a question of when.

Why are people talking about this like this is whats preventing them from raiding on CE level..?
"Naww it's the type of shoe that's keeping me from competing in 100 meter sprint"

ego defense
some people cant admit they might be at fault no matter what, its like when someone claims all relationships they had ended bcs of the other person, never their fault

I know this will be hard for the race

ah yes, of all the people it will be the best players who will have issue without addons... totaly...
