    I remember watching the Ny'alotha WF race and you got to see various PoVs from players in Limit and everyones UI looked super advanced and then it would switch to Trill and it looked like the guy had only installed like, DBM and AngryAssigments like 5 minutes before the raid started lol

    Strongly agree, although, they should make strong abilities and other impactful procs more telegraphed and clear in game first. Like it is very easy to see and hear The Hunt being pressed or Combustion being used, but so many other things that kill you in PVP are just small debuffs that get lost in the clutter of a million pets on your screen.

  • @HierophanticRose
    @HierophanticRose 7 месяцев назад

    Banning addons on competitive would be a great tactic, as most of the "tips and tricks" trickle from the competitive side, often misapplied. So, without Addons on competitive (I would even say dont allow 3rd party overlays during structured PvP at all) parts, they would lose their appeal and "FOMO" "you need this" approach. This does a great thing in that it lets non-competitive add ons remain, and regulates the client side without needing direct coded regulation, which is easy to circumvent in any case.
