catch-22

[Xaosync]

List some of your "Damned if you do, damned if you don't" F2P situations.

Catch-22 (logic) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My most recents:

I chose Hogger's Shiny on my Ret-adin for my Stamina set because A: It's one of the only rings that scale to 7 stamina, and B: Everyone complains about the Eye-Patch users, so I figured I'd humor myself with horde restrictions while boosting my Stamina set. Now everyone on my team bitches about how I'm a "newbie" for using Goggles until I get fishing hat lol. Even people on horde side PM me on this site going "Erm... Goggles?".

Alliance wins about 1 out of 6 pugs lately, last game I played before the maintenance, we had cap last and it was 1:1. Priest FC with a Resto Druid felt unbeatable, we could NOT 4v2 them, and they ended up out sustaining our FC and we lost at the last minute. It was shameful and frustrating. We couldn't attack the druid because he'd just run/root and the priest was free to heal him and we couldn't attack the priest because they'd just reset the fight with psychic scream while the druid rooted/healed. It was a shitty way to lose the one match Alliance stood to win last night.

I chose riot stick for silly top end on my warrior Oxygen in cata. Now with the changes fury is bleh and staves are not good for arms as you lose 25% damage. Along with this it's rather difficult to cap in MoP compared to cata without eyepatch

So true, Alliance majority of the time loose. The only time they win is if Horde is completely Spanish and Alliance have a ton of Hunters/Druids. Horde on EU just seem to have a better standard of playing. When Alliance are winning most of the time they graveyard camp. Its got to a point that I cant even get through one BG as Alliance... just TOO painful.

Of course you are a noob, all Alliance pro's use Rifle Commander's Propatch! I would suggest deleting char and starting again. You MUST use the 'Propatch' to obtain the magical powers of the Alliance. Some say this power of mystical wonder has drawn from Canashot himself.

You could just CC the priest and let the EFC run free and kill him. But you're Alliance and CC means attack sheep. And Interrupt means spam Scatter Shot at every opportunity available.

Yeah, I'm sure my teams lose more often because we lack the power of the patch. It's my responsibility to wear an eyepatch, otherwise you just cause confusion among the ranks.

When you are fcing and no one comes D to help ya out so you go to tun roof since there's a few people after ya. They eventually stumble into the enemy base after a few mins in mid somehow and return the flag. God forbid if your ass isn't planted on the capspot exactly when its returned (granted usually I try to foresee when a return is about to happen)

Teammates that don't help D and aren't prompt O have no right yelling in chat lol, one of the reasons I like brazilian players because they always seem happy :x

Healing in a battleground and having to choose between yourself and a team-mate; i.e. a situation where only a quick LoH will save somebody and the other person will die. I generally choose to save those who have a fighting chance (well geared, another healer, FC, at least over ~1700 health) when faced with that decision, and bear the abuse of the baddies who I've watched die, usually along the lines of:

"You all suck." "Heals suck." "You are shit at healing noob." "Learn to play." Most recently, a 24 ret paladin who said "Give me some fucking heals before I afk." He clearly had never made it to the page in his spell book with Flash of Light on it ..

Off topic: Hope to catch you around on VeCo sometime Xao !

I think they're enjoying themselves because this is all still a game to them. Don't they know that f2p twinking in WoW is srsbsns?

Would like but capped, dang, increase like-cap please [MENTION=10336]Yde[/MENTION] DDDDDDDDDdD::::::::::::::::::::::

More of a dictionary catch 22, as apposed to what you are describing in the op.

Its bothered me for a while, but its the fact that Mail users can't transmog their heirloom Chest's or Shoulders.

Its a catch 22, because even if you had a piece of mail gear you wanted to mog that was your level, you can't because the heirloom gear counts as plate. And if you want to transmogrify your heirloom to look like another heirloom, which is the same type as the other item... you cant because you cant equip plate.

Gotta love it.

I'm not head admin. :< I got shot down on my petition to increase it a long time ago, and had to argue my hardest recently to stop plans to get rid of the like system completely. D: Increase not happening.

I wish I could whine about being a moderator on TI, it is constant catch-22s with both options of any decision sucking. :<



Hmm I'm trying to think about actual annoying choices in-game, but no choice in-game is really that regrettable to me. The closest would be getting mildly irritated at some illogical ranting or stupid racist remarks against people speaking another language in chat. I don't like people trying to put others down.

Oh, I guess a mild catch-22 there would be speaking up against the rage person in BG chat. They will in most cases not change their tune at all, and you'll maybe feel like having wasted time typing, but I usually do it anyway. ^^



The transmog dilemma, while giving us few choices, is indeed really annoying. >_<

I love transmog, and i'm very OCD about it. Shoulders are my main issue with transmog.

I once spent a week soloing RFC, think i did about 200+ solo runs of it for barbaric cloth gloves, instead of mystics gloves. to most people barely any difference at all, however i cant live without my tmog looking perfect.

Statistics - Community - World of Warcraft

Total 5-player dungeons entered - 404

Creatures killed - 30,723

Majority of them are for transmog, sometimes i am actually more addicted to tmog than i am to pvp.

like that time when i had my magefist gloves obsession, i spent a day farming balboa (20 elite giant in azshara, 4k hp) for them, he had highest drop rate and instant respawn pretty much. (30 sec respawn)

i racked up over 1000 kills of that guy, and all i got was a few greens and some rock. -.-


GIVE ME MORE TMOG SHOULDERS BLIZZAAAAAAAAAARD. caps to show my emotions on the subject.
