Twinking apocalypse

[Twinkzruz]

I get excited every time a new piece of gear comes out tbh. Running an instance with a group of twinks would take no time at all, most classes can easily solo DM and with 5 in a group the mobs would fall like leaves. Instance runs would take no more than twice as long as a good booster imo.

Wait, you expect 5 twinks doing the same instance you are to que at the same time? You think your runs will be all twinks? : / I would like to bet that at most you would get ONE other twink in your group, because of the large ammount of non-twinks q'n for instances, hoping to get a twink to carry them through the instance.

i also think its just your taste that is taking a hit, and you just saw it !

gratz on opening your eyes =8-D

I didn't make this thread on my ideas, i made them on Bloggers of TI from near the beginning of the blog, almost when Drayner was just posting his personal twinking things.



This idea of the 'Never-ending wheel' has been here longer than i have.



Im not talking about just this only patch. I'm talking about what blizzard has set up. They will be adding better and better gear just like EG, meaning that if twinks want to have a chance they have to get better gear.

maybe if ur spr srs or if you're a hunter that backpeddals

i seriously love the twink never ending wheel... at least people have a choice and a goal to work for, as i said not everyone plays twinks to stay the same everyday. i love to get twinks done, i think the road to making the twink is better then playing the results. thats how i see it, but you are making it look like the wheel is a bad thing because all you want is for your twink once done to stay like that forever and just own people around the gulch.



at least thats what i understand, though its one way of playing the game... its not mine !

Still everyone takes this out of context for reasons unknown, and not with this post, but with others.



To address this one, im talking about the FUTURE, of what will most likely happen.



Say you lose game time, and you cant play for 5 months. You come back, and your undergeared by almost 30%.



You will get slaughtered and maimed and destroyed without a standings chance.

I didn't say this, this post wasn't to make anything out to be a bad thing, did i say the Never-ending wheel was bad?



I was just saying it was here.



FFS.

It seems you're under the assumption that gear is = to skill.



It's okay folks, he's doesn't know any better.



Edit: If you're going to call it a "Twinking APOCALYPSE" then actually mean that twinks are dying. Don't call it an APOCALYPSE and then say that the "never ending wheel" isn't a bad thing.

Apocalypse is the revelation of the end of age.



And this is the end for the way twinks were, meaning a completely different act of the way twinks work.



And no i don't fucking think that gear = skill, what the hell does skill have to do with my posts?



lvl 8o's can run around in outdated gear also, but they dont because they know that Skill+GEAR > Skill



And your attempted lash to insult me was just pathetic on your own part. "It's okay folks, he's doesn't know any better."

so when it happens, then bitch about it



until then it's just a conspiracy

30% eh



we'll see

Twinkzruz, even if we take the future, what is needed to gain your gears is not like it is for PVP at end game. you wont be needing to get owned every BG just to gain your gear. your gear will still be able to be gotten without even fighting for it. well except for the AGM which at this point should of been removed as well as the lucky fishing hat.



you are ssuming that we'll have to be getting our asses handed to us before we get gear and nowhere do i even see that we have to, to get geared. play some 80 PVP and see for yourself how you have to grind BG to get what you want and that is a grind you'll die often to win some gears. twinks dont have to do that and as long as that isn't touched... twinks will not be like end game wheels.



exemple...

my friend hasn't played his twinks for like 1 year, now we've started playing twinks again and when he asked about what he needed more, i told him... not much just a few runs of WC for pants and a few runs of DM will get what you need.



that was when 3.1 launched.

see after 1 single year of not playing his twink, he actually didn't lose much.

now if we add the new system that is coming, yes we'll have to adjust and go get a few more gears, but none of them are being gotten by the BGs and as such our twinks wont have to fight to get them.



as such, your theory becomes just that, a theory !

i completely agree with droid here, its just a theory / conspiracy and nothing real !

nah they should be handed out if anything, i love my chardevs too much to throw away that much stam ^^

 

[Crilicilyn]

hmm... skill>gear. Being outgeared was never a problem before i finished my rogue. In fact i think outgearing other ppl has made me a bit worse skill wise since i dont need to try that hard. Its just like doing arenas w/out a chest piece and OH to get better.

 

[ArthurianKnight]

Kore, thats what i'm saying...

many says the wheel is bad, yet the AGM is part of the wheel itself and i dont see them bragging about it.

to me the AGM was always out of reach, farthest i got was 7 trinkets.

had friends helping me back then... but then again they stopped playing since then !



but i just think that blizz made a mistake, they got rid of fishing boots, but not the lucky fishing hat or the AGM and i really wonder why they kept those up ? people would say that blizz do not care for us, but its clearly not the case for the fishing boots were removed and only twinks were using them. so i wonder what they had in mind by deciding to keep AGM and lucky fishing hat.



i dont think the wheel they ar eputting us into is bad, i just think its good to have to work at least a bit to get things. otherwise there is no fun in making a twink !





EDIT:

oh and cril, yeah i know, my hunter was like that before, not entirely geared yet i was skillfull... now i just need to step up my game because agm and lucky fishing hat does a great difference...

Well also think about it, Fishing hat might be a great item but you cant put BC enchants on it. I dont think Blizz should have taken the boots away but at the same time You gotta remember thats suppose to be a lvl 35 item that lvl 19s can use thus we put alot better enchants on it. Fishing hat and AGM are a different story, they wont take the AGM away for the fact that AGM is a achievement now and 80s cause enough problems for us to get it. and well the fishing hat is great but also at the same time they dont want to take everything away from us. but I for one wouldnt be surprised to see them take that aswell.

 

[Kore nametooshort]

I would be happy to see hat go, but i have less greivances against AGM since its not as random as fishing hat to get, just takes alot of patience and alot of caffene for those 3am, 6am chests.

You still jumped the gun on what my thread was NOT about.



I didn't say twinks would have to gain gear by pvp, or by getting owned in BG's.



I referenced what twinks will be to what EG Raiding is now. I didn't say EG pvp. At all.



I'm getting sick of the thrashing of ignorant mother fuckers trying to get their long posts in on my threads, because they think they know what they are talking about.

 

[Khaos]

then stop posting if you dont want people sending there long and thought out posts, I understand the somewhat annoyance of people getting off the subject, but to be mad at someone for posting a message at a thread that doesnt even have a main setting anymore. just cause you put ffs delete this thread, doesnt mean people do not wish to still discuss the matter.

 

[wupyo]

I may be the only one it seems... but I completely understand.



Twinking was a way to avoid having to continually gear if you chose to roll more than one class, and at the same time avoid being blizzards pveing puppet everytime they want to come out with a patch. Its unfortunate that they are so embarrased by thier lack of content and ability to draw players to endgame, and now they feel they have to force us. Sad really.

I'm sorry but your topic was very dumb and provoked by the movie "2012". Next time come up with some valid points instead of nerd raging for five pages.
