Seriously, people should start listening to what Teapot actually says. His Anet parnership has so much benefit for him that it would be "INSANE" (his words) to drop that unless someone would pay a 6 figure number/month in order to make that worth it (leaving). That being said, if he wants to stream WoW, good for him, i couldn't care less. I've followed teapot for a little while, and his 'opinions', cause that's what they are, opinions, aren't for me. The simple fact that he says "i'm a consumer", "i'm a mercenary", and "i'm competitive" just rubs me the wrong way. If you play a game you actually like, you promote it somehow, even a little bit. If you're 'a mercenary' you play other games and leave the one you apparently don't seem to like that much, behind. And lastly, a true 'competitive' player ? There is but one gamemode here that can be considered that : PvP. You seriously can't consider PvE content or even WvW (which is not solo but groups mostly) competitive. All i see and hear him do is state his opinions and declare those as 'facts', doing PvE content and running around in WvW like some headless chicken hoppin around on his Charr. He dies, he respawns. That's it. I'd much rather watch Mukluk doing content (even non Gw2 related cause he's funny), or Connorconcarne (very friendly bloke) EXPLAIN things to interested players, wether it's raids or build, you name it. Hell, i'd much rather watch some streamer watching paint dry then hear Teapot yapping about WoW and how 'competitive' he is.

Well, i see that ppl here are hoping the dev's read this and implement some changes, but i think that hope is in vain. The ONLY way the current implementation is going to change, is when NO one will play scourge anymore. And , to be honest, i don't think the dev's care about that. So all you healscourges out there, better change your equipment and your builds, because you won't be joining any groups/raids/Fractals as a healer anytime soon. I've said it before and i'll emphasize it again : HSG is a dead fish, and soon it's going to start smelling to high heaven. Bury that crap.

If their implementation goes through, scourge is going to be dead in the water. - subpar healer - nerfed barrier - no dps worth speaking of when using a healscourge. My guess is that most necro's will simply play the pure dps Reaper since no one in their right mind would accept a scourge in their group, no matter the content, since they don't bring anything worthwhile to the table anymore. While Hsg's were awesome for their rezzes and putting up barriers (think fractal carries...for example), they now are made obsolete. There are better sources of alac, better sources of healing and way better sources of dps. Whoever thought this up doesn't know what a scourge is all about or never actually played one. Back to the drawing table boys, cause you messed up. Big time.

The map design is what we've seen before, riddled with mobs everywhere, but no real point to some of the "events" that happen, what seems, at the same time.. The loot isn't worth doing the meta for since you need to either buy keys with karma and research notes (costly at higher tier), or spend resources, like ores and the likes, that you will not earn back. Unless you're into the green unidentified of which i've gotten after 2 meta's nearly 2 stacks. Yay, now i can buy the resources back that i've spend getting keys. The new skins are imo "meh", and that isn't really any loot worth fighting for. And then there's the filter system. Yeh. I'll best refrain from any comment there. I did a map completion and am waiting to finish the storyline. After that it's bye bye map. Until it changes or something is added. edit : And what's with the constant mail on map change ? Djeez.
