That doesn't make them OP, due to them going away when you died, in OG Vanilla.

The section on stat weights on gear made me think a full on history of stats video would be super cool. What all the stats were in each expansion, exactly what they did, and how they were changed between patches / expansions and why, and when / if they were removed and why.

From season of mastery i learned how OP flask of titans was too. Being able to use a flask which gives 1200 hp when you only have 2600 hp is fking insane.

Season doesnt do any justice. Used to need herbalism enchant to even pick up black lotus. SoM is just blizz trying to recreate harder difficulties like private servers had done.

The souls in Torghast was one of the nicest touches/references to older material the dev team has utilized, imo. That was pretty damn cool to see in game.

"I'm attacking the darkness" was popularised long before youtube machinima videos became a thing. It's from a sketch by Dead Alewives, and it was broadcast on the Dr. Demento radio show. We used to quote stuff from the sketch back when we were playing Eye of the Beholder on Amiga. Perhaps the Summoner machinima RE-popularised it, but it was well known among RPG gamers and geeks long before that.

Damn dude one of the things I love about your channel and this series specifically is things like the armor stat distributions. I’ve played this game since cata and honestly never thought about the chest and neck etc having so much more stats than the bracers and boots. You manage to learn something new even after all these years with this channel. Keep it up man!

Never played D&D before, but I'd attack the darkness just to be safe (and because fighting is fun)

9:14 This reminds me of my level 53 hardcore protection paladin, that died to King Mukla. I figured that, worst case, I could just run away, as I've always done; paladins tend to get away with things. Not King Mukla though, the guy hit for a fourth of my health bar despite my abundant armor and stamina. I still have the paladin as a ghost, may he rest in peace

RIP your paladin brother. Never got interested in hardcore characters but as a hunter I always loved soloing hard quests and my guy Mukla took some really strategical kiting patterns, potions, traps on cool down and like 4 tries to do at lvl48-51ish. Runback to the island sucks btw

I just got into DnD with some friends. And today I learned that one of my favourite WoW content creators has a DnD Channel. Feels like finding the Holy Grail.

"I attack the darkness" As a DM who ran a nigthstalker-type wendigo against fireball-loving sorcer and Mage in my group, that is a very sensible term.

your videos bring me joy in troubled times, thanks for every video you post :)) I started in tbc (mostly played on privat servers) because I didn't have the money for the sub^^

I really appreciate there is no clickbait in this video. Love it, thanks!

"I'm attacking the darkness" was from a sketch group called Dead Alewives. Dan Harmon was in it if i remember right

Imo it was, but flasks were very good boost in first 2 seasons on almost every expansion. Later they become quite weak. Same example as orc racial ability.

The Vanilla flasks also had a quirk in translation: in the German version, their names didn't translated to "flask of XY" but rather to "flask [filled] with XY". Those two are the same in English, but not in German. It was fixed in BC.

11:30 i think you meant kael'thas blood elf ^^ but i understand they are both KT so swapping them can happen =).

Was the Text at 6:45 a subliminal Message or an error in Editing ? :D

11:31 "Including Kelthuzad's blood elves" I chuckled.

Arguably Flask of distilled wisdom was more insane during classic, mainly because you could use it as a mana pot by removing it and reusing to regain mana mid fight without cooldown. Very expensive but doable.

Petri flasks were also like that. You could use them to remove things like flame buffet on firemaw, shadow stacks on 4H, shadow damage on loatheb if you timed before shadow went off, i think you see where im going lol. I even used it to get DMF by waiting for BG queue, ressing, popping petri, then having 1 full minute to choose your buff.

Just a FYI the team that made the game Summoner did not create the audio clip, that was done by the Deal Ale Wives. Summoner just animated their characters and spliced in the audio.

Good God, Hiru, just how many channels do you have? I assume you just create content like a neversleeping erupting volcano. Good job.

I recognized a fellow D&D DM the moment you mentioned "murder hobos" :D

If Hearthstone added Duel Links as it's new mode instead of Mercenaries, which channel would you put the videos about it in?

I never played wow but I have always loved Hiru's video. I can't recommend folks who play wow but never played DnD to check out his DnD channel enough. It is really fun and informative even if you don't play :)

I actually randomly did this King Kong quest chain. I did it very recently while I was in booty bay on sunday

But bard is a class in the game. You see it in Twilight highlands with the dwarf that aids you in the battle during a marriage using bard-related spells and effects.

I knew it! It was definitely hiremaredx's voice in the D&D logs, I wasn't crazy!

Wrong Kael hehehehehe Such a good vid, as usual

I'm glad you mentioned King Mukla, but a sort of funny little thing was that he was able to be rooted. So, my level 46 druid literally stood there for 15 minutes and Entangling Roots'd him to death

wow that was convenient!

Given how Hiru has a bunch of channels, I request a pathfinder channel

Thanks

isnt Alonsus Faol who gave arthas his mace and not gavinrad the dire?

Yeah the spellpower flask in Classic was like a 25% damage buff in full Naxx BiS, while the spellpower flask in Wrath was roughly a 4% damage buff in full ICC BiS. Incredibly overpowered, but also very hard to get (especially with a rampant botting issue) and insanely expensive to buy.

You should have mentioned that classic flasks where so powerful, that holy paladins where using them in wotlk...

Flask of free movement was the most op. 30sec immunity to stuns, slow, immobilizer.

Been playing WoW for almost 20 years and I have never even heard of a vanilla flask where can I find it and what does it do?

Flasks were op for casters, yet casters still did less DPS than warriors and rogues who lacked any kind of DPS flask, curious.
