Holy bolt pally for GM 4v4s. Why waste a token? it's not like killing baal is difficult.

Besides I play classic and we do chaos runs instead. Playing WW barb in chaos can be a death sentence with iron maiden. So you're really just a BO bitch instead. The hdin does most of the work.

A contribution feature would be pointless.


Bro do u live under a stone? they patched out iron maiden from CS like 8 years ago. What the fuck have u been smoking all these years dude

Assuming it measured your contribution and not just your damage, I'd be open minded about it. Oak sage is another example of a meaningful contribution but no damage.


Ya there could be multiple ways ofc. I would love to have it not just for contribution measurement but also my own progress check

If there was dps or something its a good scale for people to understand how strong your zon is or your sorc is.

This is where the harm comes in. It happened in WoW bigtime obviously, thanks to the proliferation of damage meter addons.

Once players start getting in the habit of checking their damage, they start caring about maximizing it. Then they start conflating their power of their character with the damage they deal. Then more players become more interested in trying to maximize their personal damage rather than about playing their class well or maximizing their contribution. Having personal damage displayed on screen has the effect of sucking players brains into that text box and away from the actual game. Hearing the damage dealers talk about how much damage they are doing discourages players from wanting to play the support classes that carry the group because they want to get in on the fun too.

What if these leechers actually contributed and results in faster runs?

I fucking hate baal leechers with passion.

Let there be some sort of contribution chart which indicates how much damage youve done or how much healing and tanking youve done. Etc.

Discuss.


Contribution chart lmao. You've really never heard of a damage meter? Go play an mmo pleb
