simongmelin2587: Dont remove monks. Let them be the final boss of the series

namelastname8569: Way too much respect for getting this series together

0mn0mable: The spaghetti code is strong with the monks. It brought the server to its knees!!

SkullFunk47: Nice to see that Blizzard servers are working as intended.

peijrum: its spinning crane kick that fucks servers over

simongmelin2587: Did we consider DH's causing the lag before removing monks

andrewmiller6375: "DH's are winning, we just had to strip the monks of all their abilities"

soulsmith4787: Ring of Peace? So many overlapping player physics calculations may be having a knock-on effect. Particularly DH bouncing off of RoPs with Fel Rush. If it was SCK, then something like Starfall from Druids would've been catastrophic. Unless SCK is just that unoptimized. This is why cleaning up the other entities diminished the impact but didn't completely remove the regular stalls.

CyberLord2150: Billion dollar company by the way

BHK1337: Remember Alterac Vanilla or BC zero lag. 12years later, with better technology it's worse. "Yes, but there's more detail now and more spell blah blah." Okay, but the result remains the same: better technology, better servers and PCs today, but it's even worse. Nice job Blizzard :D

zextthenomad2916: If I were to take a guess. Monks have an ongoing calculator of how much damage they're taking/Dishing out. Specifically Stagger/Touch of Karma.

Pretty sure the server is trying to calculate all the damage coming out by each DH by each monk popping Stagger/Touch of Karma. Then apply misweaver's abilities on that and each monk is basically doing a thousand calculations per second.

KotBlini: monks have a lot of smart targeting stuff maybe thats it?

zoltanvonbozzay9678: It would help if they didn't make jade serpent and eye beam have 10 quadrillion pixels.

Madnacc: Since people in the comments are blaming AddOns for this, why didn't it lag like this during the other battles? Are Monks that much more reliant on AddOns that they use so many more AddOns than others for this to happen? Or are you saying this was just pure coincidence that Rextroy found those specific 40~80 players with all the heavy load AddOns on the server to cause this problem?

mojoblues66: I've said this a dozen times before here on this channel: the add-ons are causing the server lag. Specifically those addons that collect dynamic data about other players, like spell cooldowns, damage numbers, auras, debuffs etc. The server forces a hardcoded range limit of 20-40 metres depending on the type of data, that's why lagging only starts when everybody is close together.

povved161: Why not make it 20v20 to increase performance? Literally not fun to watch

BARBOKVA: It's embarrassing how Blizzard still hasn't fixed spell-lag after all these years and just added workarounds instead.

Raffzyy: How did you decide DH isnt the issue?

AtilonWoW: Wow I did not expect to see his face

ForggeSuperDrink: Love this series! Keep it up!

Walocial: Damn monk pets! This wasn't fair >:(

DougEdberg: just in a few minutes and wondering if this is a reason why they are removing Storm Earth and Fire

betterbuck: Do 40 DKs vs. 40 Blizzard Servers

konstantinmaksimov8816: there should be no healers if another side has no healing spec

happyhippiesurbanfarm: DQ for monks even though we’re not sure it was them? How does this make sense?

andrewmiller6375: This is the content I came here to see. I hate that I had to watch 4 mins of ads just to enjoy your video.

Dayz3O6: Trying testing monks with other class that has already fought, if lag still present that mean it is clearly monk issues.
