Okay, first non class stuff:
Cool choreography. Decent acting.
Now thoughts:
If what he is saying is true, I would agree that warlocks get the shaft equipment wise.
Now Problems:
1) The maker lied. He claims that while using his good rogue gear, he uses no bandages and no potions. Watch carefully and you see that he uses both in almost everybattle.
Retracted, despite being an a**hole about it, Rhand is correct. The other points still stand, tho!
2) Several (if not all) the battles were staged. Notice how the maker uses potions and bangages? Notice that almost NONE of his opponents do? Notice that he gets the first shot everytime? EVEN WHEN IN IRONFORGE! When he fights the elf warrior naked, the warrior is wielding a 2 handed axe, he uses evasion and, strangely, the warrior NEVER ONCE USES OVERPOWER! Despite being in Battle Stance almost the entire battle! Only one of the warlocks casts fear. The druid waits until he is damn near dead to cast entangling roots. 2 of the paladins never bubbled. And don't even get me started on the sorry ass rogues he kills. (not to mention, what does killing another rogue prove? Especially the same one over and over again?) And the list goes on...either it's staged or he found the biggest bunch of newbs on the planet to kill.
3) He only shows his best. Everyone who has played a rogue to 60 should have noticed that he uses EVERY MOVE including those with LONG cooldowns in every fight. We only get to see battles with the most topnotch shots.
4) He GANKS. Most of the battles involve him either attacking someone WHILE they are fighting, him vanishing mobs onto his target, the target being clearly labeled AFK, the target is clearly doing something (talking to vendor, trading in IF, etc) and he never once doesn't get the first shot in. (Granted ganking is Easier with a rogue, but a warlock employing the same tactics would #@!& most other people, too. Warlock: invis potion, shadowbolt, fear, exhaustion, corrupt, immolate etc...and the Warlock could be just as 'good')
5) He changes builds to suit the situation. He is obviously a ghost rogue for fighting some people (premeditation, imp sap, preparation, ghostly strike) and clearly combat against others (Coldblood, imp gouge, imp kick).
Final thoughts:
Yes, when a rogue gets the first strike in they are damn effective. Yes, when I get to use ALL my long cooldown move against a target who can't or doesn't I am gonna Own them. Despite being a pretty cool video, this movie gets 2 thumbs down for Hollywood-like unrealism.[ post edited by Savajtreyl ]
