It spawned so he immediately tagged it instead of waiting in line or partying up, and like 5 people just watched him die to his own selfishness. They could have easily saved him, but he deserved it.

​@@imajhin7186the term has been around since the MUD (multi user dungeon) days in the 80s. It's stands for Mobile Object. It's a thing that moves around in a predetermined space

[@imajhin7186]

@khveli an add is typically 1 enemy we can keep going back and forth I don't mind I've stopped wow back in WoD came back each expack to see what's changed if anything for the better. You literally just proved yourself wrong in saying a mob is defined as a crowd/group meaning more than 1

[@imajhin7186]

@khveli and I doubt last time you played was 7 years ago and you come in to watch said video about wow I don't believe you've been inactive for 7 years lmao

[@WandererTheLost]

Just think about it contextually. A mob is a group of people that is about the mass not the individual and mobs in games are groups of enemies that are not specific enough to be named. I am pretty sure that is how they got named as that was the context to which we called them that. A mob in this conext can be a single enemy as it has a new meaning in the game sense but with an origin related to the base word. That is how language evolves.@@imajhin7186

[@KK-my6hw]

It's a completely different scene when there are no appeals and the mods can't keep resurrecting themselves.

[@ForbiddenFollyFollower]

It would be cool if big guilds had limited resurrections so tanks don't always get screwed when someone messes up.

[@Wolfstigmata]

Yep keeps the spirit of hardcore honest. If you or even someone else messes up and you die, tough cookie time to lvl a new toon lol.

[@ForbiddenFollyFollower]

@@nickhewes6860 I think it depends on how limited the resurrections are, ease of use, and penalties. If you have to farm 20,000 silk cloth every time your tank dies or use some kind of resource system like tokens or something it will feel like a similar consequence to a dead tank except tanks won't feel like suckers when they join your incompetent raid group or prone to flight. Being a purist hurt classic wow the first time, maybe being a little flexible isn't such a bad thing.

[@flamerollerx01]

That death at 11:53 is so good. The guy is super tryhard with his addons, thinks he's a hardcore player, then proceeds to make 3 very stupid decisions in a row. 1: moonfire extra mob and then the one that was running away, ooming so he can't bear form. 2: turns to run, decides to root instead but forgets his back is now facing the mob and gets backstabbed. 3: runs away. All he had to do was not moonfire that extra mob, instead using it on the mob that was running away and low health. Even if he did make the mistake of pulling the second one, had he simply used his health potion and waited for mana to go into bear form, he'd probably have had the hp to kill the second one, or at least get it running and he will have been in bear form long enough to get enough mana to heal up while the mob was running and maybe had enough mana to moonfire dot the rest of it's hp.
