www.cynicalbrit... - Blue Plz! The longest running and rantiest WoW podcast around. This will be the ast Cataclysm beta video, since the beta has ended. This is part 2 of this dungeon plus an explanation at the end about future content.
Love your videos (the warlock break down one helped me a TON after 4.0) and I'm looking forward to all the new videos you'll be putting out! I also agree that Throne of Tides is THE prettiest dungeon in the game, and the content looks really fun. Your videos have actually made me excited about Cataclysm. Thank you again for all the hard work you put into these videos!
Thanks Total for doing all the neat Beta stuff, I look forward to all the new videos coming out as Cataclysm is released and rages on. I'm also glad to hear we share the same way of learning by going off sound cues and running head first into a boss fight and going from there. People seem to look at me like an idiot when I say that's my preferred way of a learning an encounter.
TotalBiscuit, you have been the light of my entertainment for the past half year. I greatly appreciate the work you have put into your videos and showing how simply awesome Cataclysm is from the lowest content to the most challenging of instances. Thank you.
Some people talk about high quality videos (720p etc.) And watch them for the sake of it. I subscribed after watching your first Uldum video(That was about 45min) and then i discovered that high quality isn't just about the resolution, you've taken wow commentary to a new level! Keep it up!!
Can't wait for future videos, these have definitely helped me. Been playing WoW for years but i was never very good at it, not good enough at least. But since I've started watching these videos its helped me to improve my raiding, and now I'm one of the top DPS in my raid group. thanks for all the great video's TB!
i love just how dedicated you are constantly putting out content, and good content at that! even when its not scheduled! so i would like to say a collective thank you from all your subscribers :) thank you
I'm excited for Azeroth daily and seeing you playing through the game, I'm planning on playing all the way through as well, your vids definitely reinvigorated my interest in WoW!
Glad to see you're doing more WoW commentary :) I think it'd be a great idea to do primary questlines and things like that. I certainly agree that people enjoy watching people play games that they too play.
Idk about running head first into an encounter to learn, rather watch failures first so i can see what kills you and why it kills you. All personal preference though. Tyvm for the Cataclysm Beta video's TB, been a pleasure watching them.
@athlavard Well, The most important Addon you want is Deadly Boss Mods. It keeps track on the boss you are fighting's attacks and tell you when to move or so. You can skip everybody else but if you want you can get other addons such: Recount, Recount is a damage meter useful to see your parties and yours DPS, as well as healing done and other things. Omen Threat Meter. It gives and overview of your's and others aggro on your target. Bartender, You can move around your action bars and such.
Thank you Mr. TB, your video's have given me hours of entertainment in the lead up to cataclysm, and they've given me an awesome insight into what to expect. Maybe off topic, but where is your name taken from? I've read it in "Carpe Jugulum" by Terry Pratchett, but he tends to parody things.
dear total. long time youtuber and long time wow player, ( played since it first came out) thank you for your videos leading up to cata been great watching them can't wait for more strong supporter of everything you have put out keep it up i'm not going anywhere. thank you and look forward to much more.
Great job on all of your videos TB, but I would like to know what has happened to the fail shark if you get the chance. That video was hilarious and I want to see if Blizz fixed or changed that boss.
Great set of vies, I do have a fire Mage question to pose. Why frost fire bolt? Is that purely a mana based decision or is the dot better than it was with new specialisation ? Cheers!
Dang, this is kind of depressing, being the end of the Beta. But, just two more weeks and Cata hits and Shattering is already underway. So, in a way nothing has really changed. Still, I'm very grateful for the work you've done, TB.
I keep flopping back in forth between cancelling my subscription and continuing. They made tanking and healing fun again, and the instances COULD be cool. If I can find myself a good guild I might get back to raiding too. Thanks for sharing everything you experienced through the beta, with awesomely hilarious commentary.
@TotalHalibut Do you know if the reward from Glory of the Icecrown raider is still available in cata? I know the achieve will be but idk about the reward :) ty in advance. Keep up the good work, love the show
@84Mtac thanks man, I've looked at it on live but also heard that fb basically was better dps... But with cat a mana use on fire mages 1k less per cast sounds either fairly important if not required... What do you think?
TB I love your vids...and will definitely continue to watch anything that you put out, WoW, StarCraft, whatever...Keep up the good work! And thank you for the mage and warlock vids, they have helped me out extensively since I am mainly a hunter player, and had no idea what I was doing when I rolled those alts...
Glad to hear that you're going to keep the vid's going TB, I will be watching them, It will be handy to see the game form a different perspective. It will also help those who have not been playing long. I highly recomened ya vids to those who want to learn. I rolled a lock after watching ya guide to them. Keep up the good work, Ya fan base, which is growing day by day, Thanks you for the hard work. And we will all see you in cata, and ya vid on the Deathwing kill.
@bleedingmenn I think you have to do a certain amount of damage to the sluggified player in order to get it off. Kind of like Taldaram's vampiric thing in Ahn'Kahet.
@TotalHalibut Great videos for all of Cata so far. I'm wondering if when the expansion actually comes out you'd consider finishing off the raid videos. You're much more entertaining to learn from then those bland guys at tankspot or trying to watch a paragon video. Just a simple request. Keep up the awesome work
Thanks loads for your content, subscribed a while back, looking forward to your future vids, which sound like they'll be just as helpful. I like the sound of your sort of Urban sports for WoW...you should ask for a different challenge each time...like, "kill gamon", or "see how much you can piss of 'x'"...i dunno. Either way, really helpful stuff, so keep on trolling sir!
TB is King! Best thing to happen to WoW fraps and videos ever. Keep up the great work. Keep up the cynicism. Keep up everything you do. Don't change... except that back-pedal thing... n00b
What if your a BM hunter, Unholy DK, Demo Lock here? Does the pet get the buff you get at the neptulon fight? They didnt pre-cata...if they still dont they have a huge disadvantage at fights like this...
TB a good way to get an extra buck without much annoyance to us would be to put an ad at the end of the video since i think you still get payed and we can just click off or pause just before it starts if we dont want to watch
Thanks for the videos that have kept me really excited for cataclysm, not sure if i'm gonna have time to watch your vids any more so goodbye and all the best ;)
A little before 4:34, they had a Druid this entire time? Iv been thinking of ways the Druids can fix all the situations, like with the typoon guys, just use solar beam, plus faire fire helps alot on the had bosses, typoon (druid's) could easily push the ink pool guy into the courner so the dps can be where ever
Woohoooh!!!! I'm so happy that you'll continue making awesome vids like this one TB! I'm a big fan and thanks to you, i'm actually considering rolling a troll mage! Trolls are best horde race imo, i wanted a pure dps class for some time and i wanted to role a horde for a change.... Keep on going m8!
hey tb if you dont already can you do a vid about the type of addons that you should use. At this time I dont use addons but as I play more people keep telling me I need all these different addons which ones should I use?
Love your style and looking forward to watching all of your future content. I even like the StarCraft 2 videos even though I don't even own that game :o
@TotalHalibut I am interested in this new machine of yours as I hope many others are as well. This new setup of yours needs to explained more. We need details!
The problem on my server with going in to a raid and not knowing tactics or not having experienced the fight yet is that the raid will kick you instantly and then add you on their ignore list... How beatiful it is with raiding :P
The boss where you kited him through the door and into the hallway, that will probly be bugged, and that is a BADASS end boss lol. Btw, you a console player or PC? and if console, which 1? xbox here :p
the ideea of having an item (set) you can very easy(what dungeon/raid it comes from) recognise is extremely good but imagine if a particullar instance was heavy on a stat. So let's say that if I was a frost mage and wated alot of haste I would go to Throne of Tides (just an example) it would make item progression more easy and more choice based. Feel free to dissagree though and leave a reply if you want
they coulda put the kealthas swimmy thing and instead of the stacks of shadow damage you could have to kill him before your breath runs out though that would be overpowered for undead
I listen to Stephen Fry on audio book and he's fun and has a great voice but you beat him by far, though I have no idea what you look like. haha. Love your vids and I'm looking forward to see all of your coming videos.
@Wrestlemaniac woot, great to hear that my opinion was met with agreements. But, yah, lets stick to something that actually either cheap, off the shelf, something that NOONE has heard or, any and all combininations of such. also, im more excited to hear about the content he's planning for after the shattering patch, why the hell waste the time on a glorified 8-bit map editor program?
@TotalHalibut I have to say, TB... You are a very ambitious man, and I applaud you. The "Horse Racing style commentary" is awesome, I love it. I learned a ton from your Wipe-a-Thon 3000 videos. Wtf is___ is awesome. I suck at Starcraft 2 is amazing, and very entertaining. I watched you level Hiyoutube and Withkittens even though I have/had the beta. I, and many others, enjoy watching you play and especially commentate them. I appreciate that you are focused on providing quality content. :D
ill be watching azeroth daily :D 6 days a week looking forward to it. P.S I have loved all of your videos. Please keep them up :D Im really looking forward to your new videos.
