PROGRESSING TO NEW HEIGHTS! | Project Ascension S9 | ALL RANDOM Classless WoW | Ep.2

Mcdoubles back again with a brand new video and today we're back for our second video of Season 9, continuing off from our day 1 experience, where we end up with a god tier tank build and tank it to new heights in the brand new Manastorm gamemode.
Is this build worth taking to the highest echelons of the Manastorm, or do we take what we've earned and create something newer, stronger, and even more powerful for the next video?

Loving you videos man. You've gotten me into so many different servers and you've helped my mindset last year when I lost my dad. You are a great creator and I hope everything keeps going up for you. - Giulli

[@Norf331]

Stay strong brother. There's this nonsense that says time heals all wounds... No, it doesn't, but there are situations in which it's okay to cry. Don't hold back your feelings but don't forget to live your life the way it's best for you, your father would definitely have wanted it that way.

[@johnveritas8904]

a little bit tip from me, if you use level 1 cards prio to the wildcard thing, you'll get guaranteed that skills! So you dont have to re-roll untill you get what you want. After obtaining level 1 skills just replace obtained skill cards and profit! :)

[@rr3915]

that's actually makes it a lot less tedious , haven't prestiged yet so I'm gonna try

[@christucker9566]

I’ve been doing this, but I wouldn’t be sharing the tip, Dutch will be a fun gremlin and take it away

[@johnveritas8904]

@@christucker9566 actually he was the one who created this. It was 2 days ago server got an update called "level 1 skill cards" that was the beginning of this. So they already know.

[@frankmaster3]

Congrats on 60k, thanks for putting out content on the new season ive ben craving some videos from anywhere. Adventure Mode Solo is my bread and buttter this time around its actually challenging if you dont cheese it with turn in and talking quests xD

[@noahimua1289]

Congrats on 60k subs McDoubles! Your community loves you lots dude

[@peculiarcruelty]

Finally Mcdoubles droped a new video. Merry Christmas and happy New year man. The amount of absolutely not viable for my build stuff I'm getting is unbelievable. Cruella

[@reesalas]

[@Moffenson]

[@EntropysSmile]

Merry Christmas mate ! love the vids. Glad to hear you are rocking out making a game. Get that bag and chase your Dream! Have a great one !

[@Babblyy_belphyy]

manastorms are definitely my favorite part. Your vids are always a lot of fun to watch, gives me "older cousin" vibes lmao - Elphybelphy

[@cheebahjones420]

Always love the content McDubs.

[@Voided96]

Priestslayer - Great video as always. Loved your videos as always!

[@ZereTheTank]

Congrats on breaking 60k! Still struggling in the 60s for my manastorms, but I also just keep prestiging to try and get a decent 2h parry build going. Zerefin!

[@alexisbaquine7635]

Merry Christmas Mcdoubles! Hope you will remain as motivated as you were this year and keep doing what you like and (obviously) provide us with good content!

[@CurtisKlajch]

Your videos always are amazing. From the editing to the content. You're amazing man. Keep it up!! - Agetank

[@roshimushin]

Thanks for your videos. They make playing ascension much easier to understand. -Roshimushin

[@Kronosxviii1]

I advise using the pasted macro while in manastorms, as it will tag the common npc vendor that placed within dungeons and greedy demons with raid markers making it easier to find them. /targetexact Finkle Einhorn /script SetRaidTargetIcon("target",6) /targetexact Greedy Demon /script SetRaidTargetIcon("target",2)

[@GoonTownUSA]

amazing video my man

[@Co7ton]

Congratulations Mcdoubles I've been here for awhile happy for you

[@RalphEvangelista]

Big grats on 60k! Been trying to find the urge to play and boy has season 9 ignited the fire. GG's mcdubs! -Mkihailov

[@Gobs-zx2mt]

I actually would not have even known about the manastorms without your videos, they are super fun and ive been spending tons of time on them. Would love to see you do some Agility duel wieldy type build. Love the vids man! - Daveric

[@luperkalel1884]

Great seeing your vids again. I’m enjoying the new season, is a bit hard with trying to easily figure out what is the “best” way to run a melee spec etc. but early enough in the season to just muck around. Agemman

[@AlexInoue]

Glad you had a better time this time around! I've been doing well with a DPS character going backstab with all the energy regeneration (fun 1-button build!), which got me up to 100 while leveling to 60 ^_^ -Zecia

[@troelsjakobsen8282]

Gligg - Haven’t been able to play much lately but I’ll be trying to beat that 110 of yours! Good video, keep it up! 💪

[@mihailnikolov5535]

Your tank build is what I wanted to try the other day, but RNG fucked me so bad. Now, I managed to scrape together a Swashbuckling pirate build. It's still very rough, but it gets the job done. Can't wait to see what you manage to put together in the next one! Also, still pretty excited for CoA, even if it comes out this time next year. I'm glad you're doing your best.

[@RuhuttaDwarf]

Had to comment, only a minute and a half into the video and that Lord of the Rings music is chef's kiss bro. Love it!

[@Darkstorm299]

Grats on the 60k sub milestone. Here's to more! - Darkstrom

[@timallen3674]

Always love seeing the new content, really excited to see how the fire build holds up! ~Nallia

[@winterwood1]

Playing a Stormstrike build and got this Wind Strike ability that pairs with it so well. I'm just questing but I'm one shoting right now its a blast. Talents have been a 50/50 good/bad so far. -Newtrollhere

[@ChrisSmith-jr2gc]

Great video again. This season is a struggle, it’s been fun but still hard to build something viable. Still hoping for the best! Tweezes

[@CosmicCleric]

Really enjoy the vids! Hope you and yours have a great Happy Holiday! - Torias

[@doyoknothewaekappa8456]

Pretty much only doing manastorms been super addicted to it and im glad ur also enjoyin it keep up the grind! - Payam

[@AV-wn7xz]

Congratulations on 60k subs!

[@warofpaladin]

Loving the videos again man!! brought me back since playing in season 5.... - Galbotoricks

Looking forward to some serious playtime over the holidays! Finally! -Sodapopinski

[@DukeRevenger]

Glad to see you enjoy it, Easyhealing ❤ at solo 216+ now, keep it up

[@Porterhouse117]

I'm glad to see more content from you, I would even love if you started branching out, and did other stuff. I'm also having a ton of fun on season 9, feels very fresh. -Urteil

[@slobrat3556]

grats on 60k subs dude, lets get you to 100k! :D

[@goalz7345]

Feel like a lot of your deaths are from not noticing the insane amount of aoe affixes like the lightning, shrooms ect but hey the fun of manastorms. Love the vid as always congrats on subs you deserve them and more can't wait for the next. Adelania

[@holo7669]

Merry Christmas McDoub! And Enjoy the Manastorm at your own pace, pretty much doing your first build and got up to 126 rn, probably gonna reroll and see how it goes from there, think you can imagine that anything that's about 250 called "high" people still trying builds and all that, but yeah having a little bit a fun myself with this season! -Cilysa

[@okfine1883]

Love the videos, seeing you pop up always makes my day. Maybe try a build around Shadow Bolt Waste. From my experience it basically twos shots mobs. Or maybe try a something with Arcane Bullet. I think you'd enjoy some one or two shot abilities. Keep up the content. - Jakeob

[@joshuawells-rb8ef]

Merry Christmas McDoubles!!!🎉🎉 Sorcha

[@grompy4635]

Merry christmas! keep up the great content and keep having fun making videos- Shamk

[@flamejailer4637]

Keep uo the good work. Glad to see their taking on feedback for the manastorms its such a cool system. -Luthia

[@nitewolfe87]

Love your vids been playing bear tank the mana storms are great addition to the game can't get enough of them -Tailplay

[@TheToeKnee216]

Great video, hope you have a merry Christmas. - NotOffensive

[@thade842]

[@Starkmens]

Grats on 60k! Peath and blethings and love you long time friend. The lootbot in the shop is totally worth it. -Zulf

[@mtwone6026]

Congrats on 60k subs!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@friezerburn467]

Glad to see people are having fun with this mechanic. I'll have to see how far I can get. My goal is probably 120ish solo. Might even do a HC manastorm only challenge thing where I can't leave and only use stuff from the storm. -Friezerburn

[@tobiasviby]

We came for your content and we stay through a drought! Don't worry about pushing out rushed content, rather do what you find interesting and I'm certain we subs will support you all the way. - Linen

[@ianmacdonald4944]

Just hit 120 Solo manastorms on a dps build! Dont see myself progressing further without some seriously nice rerolls though. Love your vids dude!

[@Gibs6051]

Marry Christmas and congrats on 60k!!! - Elurria

[@redeyes33]

Awesome vid man. I am grinding hard trying to get a fun build together. I mostly do pvp and got 2 different vanishes and 2 different blinks that I can use within a few seconds of each other which has been the most fun Ive had on ascension. Been playing since season 4 - Orion

[@EvilChickenize]

Merry christmas McD

[@JakubRandula]

You are the reason i am playing Ascension :-) Love your vids - Kubator

[@rr3915]

Currently at 50 smth lvl, don't remember precisely. At first glance interesting dynamic with LRE splitted into standalone talents and abilites, gives more combinations and synergy, but unfortunatelly I'm so far got a semi-working build with few abilities for couple ways to redirect into different build if I will roll something more fitting. Now I'm thinking that it will be better to prestige and start with a blank slate since I've got a slew of cards than flush down the drain 10s of thousands of AP to roll a Tracking humanoids, resoucefullness as a melee dps with no intent to play hunter based build or Shield of Righteousness without Righteous Fury Happy to see a new video, been waiting for new content since despite rough rng I kinda like this season. Merry Christmas! - Kriegshetzer

[@Vortexzz1]

Spyera is my in game name. New to Ascension! Merry Christmas Mcdoubles!

[@brandonncomito2903]

Congrats on 60k Bro!

[@user-ps6cw9uy9j]

I hope the server goes well, it has been really fun. Everything about this season has been amazing! Have a good day! - Tauriel

[@hjjjhful]

The fact that it took this long for you to get a playable build is insane, and actually unacceptable this is some blizzard level of time investment.

[@christofferringgaard1766]

Great video! Love the manastorm content keep it up🙌 The “random” spikes of damage in manastorm are actually not random. The higher you get in manastorm the more mobs have affixes that do different things. You can see them when you click on the mobs. Some of them proc on the death of the mob such as the bone storm and the lightning strike, some of them are just passive abilities like the mushroom spawning affix or the cleave attack. All of the “sudden spikes in damage” were because of these mechanics such as the lightning strike. So a tip for reaching higher levels in manastorm is to pay attention to the affixes and make sure not to overpull because overlaps in affixes can quickly get out of hand. Sometimes a level also has an affix for example the meteor or frost path that occasionally occurs throughout the level. You can see the level affix on your debuffs tab. And I completely agree with you that a DPS build is nice since the bosses take forever. And later on some of them have stacking enrage mechanics which just makes DPS more important. Hope this helps🙌 IGN - Darush

[@darthsteve10]

Hey man, love the videos and super happy you're still going for season 9. Have you been into BGs much atm? There's the scorched earth talent that's currently just peaking in all the bgs im in atm. It's insane, thought you'd like to know :) have a good one!!

[@revin2362]

Been having an absolute blast with Manastorms. Its especially good becuase sometimes you want to be able to progress your character's gear, but you don't want to have to go group up and just want to relax and do some solo shit, so this gives an option for that. - Tsiana

[@Scantraxxxx]

Love the content as usual! - Vaelkyrion

[@Chocoboel]

Love your work Mcdoubles. keep up the great work - ingame RogueBeast

[@OnceUponALurch]

First ascension creator I found. Love the builds and videos. In game : Eremial

[@awideman5981]

xD for Willemduece on Elune :) enjoying adventure mode. Definitely leaning toward shaman or paladin builds for survivability, but the randomness is actually refreshing. Was tired of always running warden, MFB, elementalist, eldritch etc.

[@dreadsiege3665]

Longtime fan! "Dreadsiege" in game been enjoying the new season alot, just need a few tweaks to RNG weights to make the game give spells and talents a tad closer to what you already have, Looking forward to the next!

[@Swagrid123]

keep up the good work buddy, looking forward to a big dps build from u - Offset

[@Tony-ye2rf]

Grats to the 60k! -Nari edit: also you should maybe think about getting Cogsley (Manastorm only Vendor Pet) to stay in Manastorm (800 Bazaar Tokens)

[@tyridentv8522]

Just now started on season 9 but excited to explore! - Tyriden

[@patrickmurray3846]

Oh Mcdoubles, you forget if you are going a tanking build you'll eventrally become "uncritable" so those talents that heal you when you get crit will become 100% worthless.

[@TheTabetin]

You can get 3 lego pala RE talents along with exorcist strike from vendor in lights hope. Probably the easiest dps build u can make after hitting 60. IGN: Paine

[@allviper]

love watching your video every time one pops up.. Elune Viperace

[@Kennell_Racing]

Keep up the videos loving the content! - Kennell

[@juandiego3211]

love u mcdoubles, happy Merry Christmas ❤❤-Myth

[@Mateo.gwq32]

Thanks for the new vids- loving the season and manastorm so far, also looking forward to CoA. Hope you're taking care of yourself while working on it, and Merry Christmas! IGN: Mateo

[@YehorKompaniets]

I'm enjoying playing manastorm's and bg's as half-tank/half-dps with my caster friend. We have a lot of fun exploring new skill combinations). - Pit

[@Justkidding277]

I played WoW at the height of WotLK and then slowly fell off after Cata and beyond. KZbin recommended one of your videos, and I ignored it for a while, but I wish I hadn't. I started playing Ascension a few days ago, and I'm hooked, binging your videos in the background, playing Adventure mode solo, trying out different builds and ideas. I think it might be time for me to jump into Manastorm. I just hope it's not much of a slog without the heirlooms and the like.

[@bpcp3323]

Honestly even tho rng is huge i like season 9 i meen i started playing in season 8 coz of your vids and had hard time gettong into it coz everything was minmaxed so i quited but saw your vid on season 9 and tbh i feel like it gives me more even playground and im in love woth it

[@hakooh675]

Gratz on 60k - Hakooh

[@JSchweizerhof]

@mcdoubles Check the milhouse vendor options, they sell an interrupt potion and even a minor aoe dmg and stun potion with their own separate cooldown.

[@Madjack58270]

Merry Christmas, loving Manastorm solo. RNG on the abilities and talents is rough, but it is WILDCARD.. so cant bitch about it too much. It definitely is a challenge but you gotta just see if it applies to what you got or if you can try to use it to your advantage. Keep the content coming McDubz, btw love the fact that you can do Manastorm in CoA. -Tumbl

[@iFarsight]

i have been watching videos of ascension i think since season 6, but this season really had many nice features and "fixes" so im taking the leap and going to join and play my First ascension! :3 -Neindao

[@walkinshadowful]

I got back into Ascension just because of you, you are the joy in people's eyes! One question tho, how do you manage with the lag in OG/SW these days? It's awful and you can barely stay there without getting an error... ~ Brostix

[@dedoguapo]

Drewsader, Loved the videos. Any chance you can find the best way for talent cards? it seems like they are the hardest thing to get for fun builds.

[@kirbyofdeath77]

Played a little of the new Ascension and like it so far. Good video. - Kongril

[@Lasse183a]

GZ on 60k :D - Hauerfras

[@NostalgiaWhite]

Merry Christmas Mcdoubles and congrats with 60k subs🎄!!! I have a question, what on earth "stupidest person west of Philadelphia duplex". What's it reference to? Jillmourn

[@skord0466]

Hey McDoubles, I am having a blast with the new season. I have made it to 67 solo in manastorm with my paladin type build, I hope you having fun with it to :) - Nokor on Elune

[@Shikyonaito]

Happy holidays to you and yours lad, however I feel like I need to tell you (and everyone, really) that you can leave the Manastorm via the little LFG eye icon on the minimap, right click that and then click "Leave Manastorm" --- yes, it really is that easy XD ~ Marrowfiend

[@cbugyra97]

I feel like this season has me trying new builds I wouldn't normally play or even know exist. -Stayke

[@Siznuk]

Merry Christmas. Yeah those wailing caverns bosses I can't kill even with the interrupt rod. They just heal and don't go oom. - Siznuk

[@dlord813]

Diandora - Marry xmas I don't mind the ability rng, but the talent rng is killing me tbh love your vids keep up the good work
