Nothing is really siming bad thus far other than the stuff i listed above. 2/3 hunters that are in the raid crew are playing bm and the other mm for raids. Hunter is very much a "which style do you prefer" thing. | ||

Me and scip have probably played about 60+ hours so far, and we're not even through all the bosses. We're playing expert mode, mediumcore and have banned looking anything up about the game. Feels like a nice balance | ||

Hunter is very much a "which style do you prefer" thing. The discussion going around Hunter forums at the moment is that raid mechanics prefer MM because they can switch easier (no pet transition/pathing/etc), which I could totally understand as a thing. But honestly I prefer BM to the current MM rotation, which I find a bit annoying. Edit: and that MM cleave rotation is exactly the same as their single target rotation, while BM is a different rotation and can suffer if the targets are too spread out. | ||

Geeks who drink. 8 rounds of 8 questions with 2 rounds being worth 16 points, as well as a joker that you can use to double the points of that specific round. There was a 16 point round last night that was song and artist, but the song had to begin and end with the same letter, and the answers were in alphabetical order. Jokered that round and got 30 points ezgame. Its usually on Wednesday nights at this " nerd" bar near my place. Its really just a bar with a nerd owner but hey you know whatever brings people in to sell booze. Edit: Trivia night? Is probably the most common expression people hear for this stuff. | ||

What were the questions like? All the pub quiz things I've been to have all felt targeted at either a super niche audience, (like LoL quizzes at an "esports bar") or general knowledge ones aimed at a generation about 20 years older than me :p | ||

All the pub quiz things I've been to have all felt targeted at either a super niche audience, (like LoL quizzes at an "esports bar") or general knowledge ones aimed at a generation about 20 years older than me :p Depends on the quiz. There are themed quiz's (harry potter is a popular one) but last night was "tribute" night so many of the round themes were more general knowledge stuff. Warm up round last night was "Oh what's that smell" where every answer was a different kind of flower (scientific or common name) with questions like "sitting Indian style with both feet touching your thighs would be what yoga pose?" | ||

I much prefer playing BM but everyone says MM is better. And I agree the mechanics are, but how big is the actual dps difference between the two? Sims are mostly useless at the moment. For Simulationcraft in particular each spec effectively has its own isolated team, who work on an entirely volunteer basis. So when looking at their latest chart you have to consider:
So basically until more time has elapsed you're better off just ignoring sims and testing things for yourself on target dummies to see what's doing more damage for you. Edit: Here's a telling quote from a fellow Elitist Jerk who's knee deep in Warrior theorycraft: The main warrior theorycrafters agree that in a Sim, Arms is always going to looks like the best DPS. However when it comes to the actual encounters they are mostly in agreement that Fury is going to be a top tier DPS. That chart is basically what your best DPS would look like if you stood in place and hit the same target for xxx seconds and maintained a near perfect rotation without having to move or do anything else. From my understanding that doesn't match one boss in the first raid tier. | ||

Things that aren't competitive (save among ourselves) are good to contrast with the aforementioned two, and I can't dedicate enough time to MMOs so those always fail for us.  If your gaming group is local co op able, overcooked and crawl are absolutely fantastic. | ||

Funny you bring up PoE, new season in D3 too and I've been poking at that too, prob won't last beyond a week or 2 tops, but. It's fun. Anything particularly shiny out of the new PoE patch? | ||

And as such, as I have an addictive personality in regards to games and things, I have made it very clear to myself that it will never be an option. Cancer is in every single game, OW included. My play experiences with LoL thus far have been overwhelmingly positive since I've been playing with friends.
