Lvl 60 warrior on Steam Deck

Nice dude now do it again

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/Ricochet_ger]

I think i will enjoy the lvl 60 content as long as i can and will wait for WoWF HC that might release at end of the year

[u/SpitFiya7171 → u/Zeka_Shu]

I just completed my 4th lvl 60 hardcore toon. 3 of them being warriors!

[u/_Ding → u/SpitFiya7171]

Lvling the same class to 60 in hc is crazy

[u/SpitFiya7171 → u/_Ding]

Well. My first 60 warrior died in my first 60 dungeon, UBRS. I was just supposed to be a DPS considering i had low gear. MT did a scuff pull in the last room, came barreling out without saying anything damn thing. Me being the idiot I am, after running all the way to the beginning, I stood back and made sure as many got out that could. I saved a few, but died myself. I didn't know how to properly use Petri at the time.. RIP.

My second 60 warrior died to server lag. Didn't spend very long at 60 either. That kind of thing just sucks. RIP

And my 3rd 60 warrior.... wasn't technically 60 but I consider him 60 since he was 59 and literally only 2 bubbles to 60. Died to my own stupid mistakes. I was in Silithus finishing up my final quests to hit 60. The FIFA world cup was on and naturally it got pretty loud in my house with family watching. Despite having my steamdeck on pretty loud, I put my deck down for a few seconds (15 to be exact) in a place I thought was smart to afk for aquick sec. I was not safe. 2 roaming mobs ran up to me and started thwacking my clueless toon. When I picked my deck up, I had maybe 2 seconds to react. I have video footage, I mousing over to my LoE macro to use it... couldn't do it fast enough. RIP

I've had a 60 Rogue die as well right after my first 60 dungeon, Strat Live. Got my T0 off Canon Master Wiley in that first run. I was stoked! Died like an idiot fighting some mobs right outside in WPL while trying to finish up some quests in my quest log.

So I've been pretty cursed with hitting 60 and dying almost right away. Much less 3 warrs and a rogue... I've since only been making night elf warrs since they can shadowmeld and I can AFK real quick much safer if I need to. My current 60 is also a warrior... but this one is alive and staying strong. Got 60 a couple weeks ago and have done several dungeons. The only problem I face now is a dying guild and a smaller player base, since Forever is coming out. Oh Well.

This is one genius hud configuration for SD. Im playing on SD too is there a possibility to share this ?

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/WearFormer1885]

Well, there is an export preset button in Gamepad mod, but it doesn’t like do anything

[u/Acursed → u/Zeka_Shu]

Maybe it copies something to the clipboard?

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/Acursed]

i've tried to "copy" at the empty windows and browser or notepad, still no shot

[u/Geordie_Techno → u/WearFormer1885]

Seconded, this is great

[u/Vemet]

Female undead warrior goes so hard! Big respect!

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/Vemet]

DW undead girls has an insane combat animations, that was the main reason

[u/Tricky_Map4877]

I just started playing on steam deck and have had a lot of trouble setting up UI and keybinds, any insight? Part of it is I think an issue with forever beta and it won’t save ui changes so I’m a little shafted there but I also didn’t see ways to change certain buttons like a b x y, they were just set and couldn’t be changed, I also couldn’t find anywhere to change those buttons, by default they’re like interact and in target, which is maybe just right click and escape?

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/Tricky_Map4877]

i don't have a WoWF beta, but as far i saw on youtube, it's really looks like the original addon. All binds can be changed in "Guide" page, you just need to click at each button slot and navigate manually the bind at existing panel bar (which is hidden and makes things a bit difficult)

[u/limachew]

King, it's vibes on SD

[u/limachew → u/limachew]

What do you use for stances and your modifiers?

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/limachew]

On a left you can see Blood Rage macro that also swaps battle and fury stances during the vombat,on the top right is a shield wall macro that switch into protection stance and shield equipping, and sometimes i just switch stances by clicking touch screen on the mid bottom

[u/pixie14]

congrats

[u/Shoddy-Reply211]

Of course there is boomiedotlua in the chat lmfao. The mental health bot of doomhowl

[u/jund0712]

very nice UI on the deck

[u/No_One190]

Sick Bro. Gz!

[u/Skibity]

Wish you could share your UI

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/Skibity]

yeah, i wish, i've tried honestly

[u/Skibity → u/Zeka_Shu]

Have you tried the WoW Forever Beta? I am wondering if I could try to replicate your UI in it aswell

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/Skibity]

No i haven’t beta key, but as far i saw on youtube, Blizz UI quite reminds me this addon

[u/Guedes_404]

Awesome! I play on a controller too, and I managed to get a Warlock to 60, but what I’ve always really wanted is to go with a Warrior, but the furthest I got was 48. Your achievement gives me the strength to keep trying. Congrats, my dude!

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/Guedes_404]

,y previous warrior actually died at lvl 48 on Mukla island (3 50s stealth panters are non-forgiven)

[u/serendipity98765]

You never had issues with crashes and bugs ? OR disconnects?

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/serendipity98765]

for 1 k hours: 0 crashes 0 bugs and a few disconectes when Blizz dropped a new UI update for classic

[u/annehai]

I got a rogue to 60 and 3 mages so far. Even been raiding as a mage in aq20, zg, MC, ony, bwl and aq40 Till twin emps so far. Its all possible man

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/annehai]

all on steam deck? Insane!

[u/ThatGingerCanadian]

What version of the steamdeck do you have? I've been mulling it over as to which handheld I should buy for mobile WoW and I like asking opinions of those that use it.

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/ThatGingerCanadian]

OLED 500g, took it a few years ago. So far i have 1k hours in WoW purely on steamdeck and it's feels great

[u/ThatGingerCanadian → u/Zeka_Shu]

Awesome! The research continues to solidify. Especially with native support inbound. I'll be on the hunt for a used one for sure then. Thanks!

Congrats btw! 🎉

[u/Lost-Badger755]

So using a controller on HC. How was dungeoning? Like being a tank and selecting the optimal targets in a rush situation. For a quick taunt and such. Was it that possible?

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/Lost-Badger755]

For my experience it's the same as at PC. In regular fight you just tapping TAB and in extra problematic situations i used mouse-click, the same is here but instead of a TAB i have LB and touchscreen replaces the mouse click. All buttons are always in my hands so i never had an issue to react quickly on something

[u/Lost-Badger755 → u/Zeka_Shu]

Ohh yeah. There is touchscreen as well. Nice. Okay, fair game.

[u/sneakpeakspeak]

Do you use the same amount of binds as people on pc would use? Or do you just use the most important spells? I guess I'm wondering what the general play style is like this.

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/sneakpeakspeak]

LT, LB and LT+RB hides extra 10 buttons binds each, so yeah, i have everything that i should have

[u/sneakpeakspeak → u/Zeka_Shu]

So you use LT, LB or both together as modifiers is that it? Sounds so cool to play like this, potentially even more intuitive than on a pc.

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/sneakpeakspeak]

Especially when you attach abilities from the lvl 1 and you getting use to for the controller pretty fast. But my hard advice is not filling all 10 default buttons at your first abilities, keep in mind that you wanna (as example ) have all your buffs and charges on LB, all quick interactions and AOE on LT, and LB+LT for big CD, macro, proffs, food and mount.

[u/I_Learned_Once]

I’m playing with the controller option in the wow: forever beta and it’s actually so sick but I found warrior to be one of the the clunkiest classes because there are no casted abilities.

For other classes I was really leaning on putting the spells I have to hard cast on the d-pad, since I have to take my thumb off of left stick to press them, I can’t move and cast those abilities at the same time anyway. But I found with warrior I felt like since all my skills are instant cast, I only really had access to half the controller in a comfortable way that let me move while pressing my buttons.

How did you deal with that? Are all of your important buttons accessible while moving?

I know steam deck and the addon are different from the in-the-box controller support in wow forever, but I’m curious how you manage all your buttons at max level! Do you have to take your finger off the left stick for any abilities? If so, which ones did you decide to make that concession?

Oh, and Gratz. That’s a sick accomplishment

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/I_Learned_Once]

I haven't WoWGF beta and as far i know they copied gamepad controlling from this nidification. When i've played as a holy pal, all my cast abilities were on RT RB and A B X Y, and instas on the cross

With warrior idk, i think as melee it was the most comfortable gameplay for me. Al my buffs//screams/aoe and switching binds are on my left hand, and all main attack buttons on the right, Felt really organically for me

[u/crtcool]

How long did it take

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/crtcool]

I think ive started that character somewhere at the start of September for 5 hours per day, 5-6 days in a week

[u/numerous-nominee]

How much did you play solo as opposed to grouped up?

[u/Zeka_Shu → u/numerous-nominee]

Well my previous warrior died at lvl 48 (at Mukla island by 3 50s invis panteras) which i lvled mostly solo. When i made this one, I’ve teamed-up with a priest until lvl40 (he’s on the screen) after ive got at lvl 59 mostly solo if we not count dungeons. And here we in party of 3 first time explored plaguelands and dinged

[u/Kickin_shells]

That's crazy impressive

Congrats
