Increasing number of players using 3rd party tools

[Izscha]

SE has banned people who have posted on youtube videos of 3rd party tools. But it's rare and far between. But if it gets bad enough where it is a clear advantage they will lock down the code.

If a timer goes off to avoid something they have said that crosses the line.
If it is up to put icons in a different place they don't care.

Sadly SE has taken a stance of DADT, Which will sadly blow up in their face at some point.





I very much disagree.
When I had more time. I was doing all EX content as it was current. Never used 3rd party tools.
All the console players that clear it do it without using 3rd party tools.
Just people some people aren't good enough to play without cheating or they need the crunch doesn't mean everyone does.
At one point my raid group had one person who used act, There was also one player who really needed help on how to play he want from bottom DPS just above me as a Warrior. to 2nd DPS by the info the 2 of them worked out.
But I as a warrior knew my job 95%, and my BRD my main DPS I was good with. my WHM I was happy with my over cure numbers/DPS But act didn't help me get there I already was.

Extremes aren't high end content but i do understand where you're coming from to some it might be.
You clearly dont need to play good to do those hence the clear rate and the number of groups doing it in party finder.
But you can't take extremes as exemple when i talk about playing right / be good, those dont need that at all.
I'm not judging you or anything but let's face it extremes aren't hard, at all and that's the first step to do raiding stuff later if you want and think those are easy.
It's a difficulty spike for most ppl because they're not used to have to respect mecanics with dungeons / raid 24 as the only real content before max level, even under gear you can fail mecanics and still be alive no big deal, extremes aren't so soft about it.
And sorry to doubt it, but you cant see by yourself how good you are or not only because you do pass extremes, when i use the word good is ppl that do mecanics right 95 % of the time ( fails do happen no one is perfect ) and do have a good dps at the same time, our difference must be mostly about the definition of good and i'm probably in the wrong here because i judge ppl's skill around content that i do, which is content most ppl dont bother to even try.
Once again i'm not saying that what you do is bad and you're a terrible player, just that we dont do the same stuff and our definition of things aren't the same.
