WoW Battle for Azeroth 8.0.1 Part 2 Review (More Endgame & Systems) - Duration: 5:57.
This is the follow up review to the World of Warcraft's Battle for Azeroth's second
half, which was released a few weeks after the initial launch.
First up Warfronts - These are Large scale PVE battles between Horde and Alliance, where
you can personally gather materials, contribute to the building of your base, and heroically
lead troops into battle.
You can really tell Warfronts are lovingly inspired by old classic Warcraft RTS games,
through familiar unit types and buildings.
While in concept Warfronts sound like a good idea, they're a bit underwhelming.
They feel incredibly grindy with very little room for strategy, you'll find yourself constructing
the same buildings in the same order, and generally the entire system is a bit brain
dead easy.
Yet there is a great satisfaction in Warfronts when you finally siege the enemy faction's
base, bringing down their gates and storming their boss.
Your faction must slowly and painstakingly earn access to the Warfront by handing in
resources and crafted items over several days.
Once the window of battle is over, you'll take over the zone, unlocking generic quests,
rare monsters, and a special Warfront World Raid Boss that hands out very powerful loot.
It's then the other factions turn to do repeat all these steps in an endless automated loop
where faction performance doesn't really mean anything.
In it's current state, Warfronts are quite a casual and relaxing system for earning some
decent gear, brilliant for gearing up alternative characters if that's your thing.
It would be really nice to see a more challenging mode or even PVP option, something akin to
the legendary older Alterac Valley battleground as Warfronts would be perfect for large scale
PVP.
Next up is the latest raid, Uldir, with 8 bosses, this is an ancient titan based underground
facility that has been sealed away from void and old god research that has gone terribly
wrong.
Alliance are given absolutely no context to the story here, you'll only know what's going
on if you played a horde character through Battle for Azeroth.
None the less, Uldir is a pretty great raid, thankfully it's more open, allowing guilds
to tackle a lot of bosses in the order of their choosing.
Visually quite impressive, Uldir really has the atmosphere of a mysterious abandoned and
sealed ancient facility.
A lot of bosses encounters in Uldir have a focus on mobility and co-ordination, a bit
more than normal.
There's a lot of unique new models for bosses which helps make the raiding experience even
more special.
And overall Uldir is a solid starting raid for Battle for Azeroth.
Initially in part 1 of this review it was stated that the Azerite Armor system seemed
much friendlier for players playing multiple specialisations, especially when compared
to artifact weapons from the previous expansion.
But after doing some more endgame, I've drastically changed my opinion.
The Azerite armor is a bad system, you're expected to carry around multiple azerite
armor pieces for different encounter types, situations or specialisations.
Which all seems like a very unfriendly system and backwards design on what Blizzard have
been working towards for a long time.
You're constantly thrown too many azerite pieces in your face, most of which are completely
useless.
Getting regular pieces of gear is more exciting as it has a chance of titanforging and being
an actual upgrade.
Class armor Tier sets with interesting perks and set bonuses were removed for this azerite
system.
Also the Traits within azerite armor are incredibly unbalanced.
- I personally built into making my Death Knights ghouls explode on death through all
of my azeroth pieces as it seemed pretty effective.
Only for Blizzard to nerf that specific trait multiple times as it hadn't been balanced
and was bugged, resulting in the build I had been working towards being rendered frustratingly
useless.
This leads into...
Class balance.
While it wasn't entirely apparent whilst leveling up, there's a pretty big discrepancy between
the balance of classes.
Frankly when it comes to class balance, it feels like Battle for Azeroth is still in
a beta, with classes constantly being tweaked and re-balanced, with them being rushed or
not properly tested.
One personal annoyance is microtransaction based content, in a subscription based game
with full price expansion packs.
There's a serious lack of new and interesting mounts, especially on the alliance side with
most reputations rewarding slightly edited horses.
Yet, Blizzard ties a new unique mount and pet behind money within 1 month of the expansion's
launch.
I think this fantastic mount, and would have been an incredible reward for something challenging
in game.
But the player's will have to put up with recoloured horses as Blizzard's greed for
money is more important to them.
World of Warcraft has always had some randomness or luck based elements with being an RPG.
But it feels like Gambling mechanics have been very much creeping into the past few
expansions.
There's a little bit less randomness in Battle for Azeroth but one system has survived, Titanforging.
It's possible to get best gear in the game from nearly any content, just based entirely
on luck with titanforging.
It was brilliant in old RPGs when you could get a +1 version of item but through Titanforging,
as far as I've seen, equipment can be anywhere from 5 to 70 item levels higher for the ultimate
slot machine experience.
WoW also reeks of pay to win, with some of the very best and most powerful gear in the
game being sold through the auction house for gold, gold can be purchased from Blizzard
for real life money.
Whilst part 2 of this review is much more negative, the initial levelling experience
is great, character development is some of the best ever, I love Allied races, and Mythic
+ dungeons are fantastic smaller group based content.
Patch 8.1 is looking to be pretty good, and there might be improvements or updates to
some of the weaker systems.
What I'm really hoping for is for World of Warcraft Classic to be incredibly successful
to the point where it positively effects the design choices of modern day Warcraft.
After all that, the Battle for Azeroth score must be adjusted.
I'll continue to update this score through the life of Battle for Azeroth and it's content
patches.

A USGS guide for finding and interpreting high-water marks - Duration: 16:43.
(calm music)
- Imagine you're a flood detective on the scene,
reconstructing what happened after a flood.
The goal is to recreate the flow that occurred
and your main form of evidence is high-water marks.
The evidence isn't always apparent
so you should always take a second to stop,
look up and visualize the flood.
This will allow you to step back
and gain perspective regarding the clues in front of you.
And while you could find yourself in any one
of many possible flood and measurement scenarios,
it is most important to understand the nature
of the system in front of you,
and to record the best data possible.
Regardless of the circumstances.
The USGS Flood Response Team,
and their high-water mark mapping efforts,
are integral to our nation's disaster recovery.
Expertise in high-water mark hunting equips you,
the hydrographer, with the knowledge and tools necessary
for verifying stream gage records and supplying
valuable data for flood characterization and modeling.
The water surface profiles that the high-water marks
imply are our main interest.
These are used to verify hydraulic model analysis
at targeted reaches of rivers, streams and floodplains.
These hydraulic models are then used
for the construction of flood inundation maps
which provide crucial information on decision making
for land-use management, emergency response,
flood insurance rate determination,
and a myriad of flood mitigation efforts.
While field experience is the best training
for high-water mark hunting,
this video and the Techniques and Methods Manual
are designed to supplement actual investigations,
and accelerate the process of learning the art
of identifying high-water marks
and the science of evaluating high-water mark usefulness.
In this video, we only briefly discuss
the different types of high-water marks.
However, the Techniques and Methods Manual
that you can find on the video description
provides excellent in depth and detailed examples
of the different types of high-water marks
along with the nuances and shortcomings.
Be sure to familiarize yourself with these descriptions
as found in the manual.
When searching for high-water marks in the field,
you'll commonly come across wash lines,
cut lines, debris lines, and seed lines.
The first step is always to stop, look up,
and visualize the flood.
This will help you to understand
and visualize what kind of flow occurred at your location.
As the type of evidence left behind in its quality
will differ between tranquil and rapid flow events.
However, be aware that both scenarios
can be present at the same site.
It is up to you, the hydrographer,
to locate the best high-water mark evidence.
Tranquil water high-water marks.
High water marks left behind by tranquil water
have a smooth trend.
Typically, with much smaller uncertainties
than those left behind by rapid flow.
For this reason, tranquil water high-water marks,
if available,
may be more useful that rapid water high-water marks.
Even in swift moving floods,
tranquil areas can frequently dot the stream edge
where changes in channel geometry or large flow obstructions
have created regions of ineffective flow.
Rapid water high-water marks.
In higher velocity stream reeaches,
water often transports higher sediment loads and debris.
Leaving behind high-water marks
that are characteristic of high energy flows.
Rapid water high-water marks often come
with greater uncertainty,
because of wave action and run-up on flow obstructions.
However, rapid water high-water marks
may represent the best available evidence
for many flood peaks,
and ultimately form an important class of high-water marks.
Rules of thumb when finding high-water marks:
One.
Because high-water marks can be highly perishable,
time is of the essence.
Once the flood has passed and it is safe to do so,
visit the site as soon as possible
to flag the high-water marks.
They can then be surveyed later.
Two.
If possible, avoid swift water areas
which can cause varying amounts of pile-up.
The flow velocity causes marks to be higher
on the upstream side of objects
and lower on the downstream side.
Low velocity areas which are usually areas
away from the main channel and near the waters edge
or close to the ground,
tend to have better quality marks.
Three.
Avoid high water marks on small bushes and trees
in areas with substantial flow.
Vegetation may get bent down during a flood
and stand back up after the flood
creating an artificially high-water surface.
Four.
Fences or window screens are usually good sources
for high-water marks.
Although, these sources should still be verified
by other high-water marks in the surrounding area.
Five.
Building interiors and man-made enclosures
like utility boxes will sometimes act as Stilling Wells.
Capturing good quality high-water marks.
However, field personnel should still try to verify
that the inside and outside water levels have equalized
before taking a measurement.
Six.
More high-water marks are always better than fewer
especially if the marks are poor, the slope is steep,
or the high-water marks are being used in the determination
of a flood profile.
To further illustrate these points,
let's go into the field with USGS data chief, Chris Smith.
- Okay, we're out today looking for high-water marks.
We just had a flood,
that came down here about a week ago.
Some vegetation's now grown up around our high-water marks
that we're looking for.
You gotta look around
and see where you're going to start
and so what you want to do is stop,
look up, look around, look at the big picture.
You want to see is there any evidence
so that you can then get initial depth of this flow
over this floodplain.
And here, this is where I would start.
We have debris stuck in this grass,
so we know that the flow here was, at least,
six to eight inches deep.
So I'll start here and then I'll go up-slope,
up on the bank to see where the high-water marks
are deposited.
So let's go upstream a little bit.
Let's see if we can find additional evidence.
Now, I'm starting to pick up
this heavy debris in these areas,
and that's a good clue.
That's a good clue that the water
got up at least this high,
but whether or not this is the crest,
what we want to do is find additional evidence.
Either really fine debris
and, in this case,
we've got really
fine debris right in here.
This may be the peak here,
but I don't see...
It could be a little bit higher.
I'm not going to mark this one yet.
What I'm going to do is look for additional high-water marks
in this area.
If this is the best one, I'll come back and mark it.
So let's go upstream.
I can see, again, heavy debris here.
We're seeing it here, again.
We're four inches deep here.
I'm going to move up-slope.
I'm seeing really heavy debris here
and, now, this is kind of what I'm looking for.
I'm looking for this really fine debris
and I can see here,
I can see a color change between the soil and this.
This would, to me,
is really the one I want to mark in this area,
because it
it has the evidence that...
Because the color, because the really fine debris,
I really feel confident that this is the...
this is the height of the water.
So I would consider this an excellent high-water mark.
Well, let's go ahead and look upstream,
cause
typically we want to find a water surface profile
from high-water marks.
Sometimes, every five feet,
sometimes every 10 feet,
every 20 feet
Depending on how big the flow was,
and how wide the river is.
In this case,
we're going to go up probably about every 10 feet
and see if we can find high-water marks.
Again, this is
this is a beautiful area to pick high-water marks.
This is one of the easiest ones I've seen.
The heavy debris,
the really fine debris
that changed in texture
of soil and the interface
with the really small debris.
It's just, again,
this would be an excellent mark
and if I can get this nail in the ground.
(laughs)
I'm going to put it there.
A person can always put the rod right next to it.
This is such a good debris line.
So I'll move upstream another ten feet.
Now, this is getting a little bit harder.
It's been a week after the flow event.
The grass is starting to grow
and, so, it's a little bit more difficult
to find this debris line,
but let me step back.
And we can look at
kind of the line that I'm creating
with these high-water marks.
And let me use that as a guide,
and then I can come back
and I can stay on that line
and then find evidence from that.
And I'm seeing that right in here.
Again, I have that really fine debris.
And I feel like this one
I wouldn't consider it excellent.
I'd consider this good,
because I'm not exactly sure
if we got all the way.
But I think we're within a couple hundredths of a foot.
- [Bruce] Flagging.
Hydrographers use various types of markers
to preserve the elevation of evidence
left by a flood.
Thus, ensuring the record lasts until the high-water marks
can be surveyed even after the evidence has been lost.
If the surveying will be done in the future
or by a different hydrographer,
markers and flagging will aid in locating those marks again.
Typical markers include stakes, nails,
bright colored surveyed flagging tape,
wire flags, USGS marking tabs,
paint/permanent ink markers,
and chiseled marks.
For each high-water mark,
paper or electronic notes should list a unique identifier,
the type of mark, for example, a seed line or debris snag,
the uncertainty of the mark,
the approximate location and any comments
or additional information on observations
about landowners, hazards or nearby landmarks.
In addition to recording high-water mark data,
field crews can save time and resources
by using a surveyor's Total Station or GNSS instruments
to survey and plot high-water marks
during the search visit.
A common USGS short hand standard for uncertainty
is listed in this table.
Water marks within plus or minus 500ths of a foot
are considered excellent.
Within plus or minus a tenth of a foot
are considered good.
Plus or minus two tenths of a foot are fair.
Plus or minus four tenths of a foot are poor.
And more than plus or minus four tenths of a foot
are very poor.
Peak stage verification.
One of the more common scenarios that hydrographers
can find themselves in is collecting high-water marks
for peak stage verification at a stream gaging station.
When verifying records at a stream gage,
you should look in areas with the same topographic features
as at the gage.
By surveying in an area with similar slope,
channel shape and vegetation,
you ensure that you are representing the same conditions
that generated the reading at the gage.
This is crucial, because stream gage records
are held to a plus or minus one 100ths of a foot,
and, therefore, the best quality high-water marks
most representative of the gaging station conditions
are needed to verify stage.
You may want to check the Stilling Well
and crest-stage gage for mud or seed lines.
As two to three high-water marks
will improve the confidence of the gage rating.
Indirect streamflow measurements.
Indirect streamflow measurements use high-water marks
to reconstruct the peak surface water profile
at a location.
Many variables come into play
when taking indirect streamflow measurements.
Streambed slope, channel roughness,
channel variations, reach length,
ideal cross-sections and general efficiency
are all factors that determine
the number and location of data points.
Experience and training is critical
to being able to read the scene.
Therefore, in order to have a solid grasp
of the process of defining the water surface
across a reach,
you should work with an experienced hydrographer
and take advantage of the many papers
that highlight methods for collecting accurate data.
In general,
low-gradient streams in the plains and coastal regions
may only need ten high-water marks per hundred feet.
While high-gradient streams
like those in mountainous regions
can require 20 to 30 marks per hundred feet of reach
to account for the frequently changing water surface.
The actual number of high-water marks required
at any given site will, of course, be site dependent.
Flood inundation studies.
Flood inundation studies are typically concerned
with spatial extent of flooding
in a defined area.
So vertical and horizontal accuracy are important.
But while a location like a small rural stream reach
might only require five to ten high water marks
to adequately define the extent of flooded water surface,
urban areas tend to be much more complex
requiring many more measurements.
In particular, while man-made structures are good
for collecting high-water marks,
because they often act as Stilling Wells.
It is important to check for hydraulic connectivity
to ensure the accuracy of such high-water marks.
Additionally, the distance to ground,
not just the altitude or elevation,
is an important data element to collect in urban areas.
The primary reasons for collecting height above ground are:
One.
Helping surveyors locate the flagged marks.
And two.
Providing preliminary elevation data to emergency managers
which allows their GIS experts to calculate
a rough inundation map from a digital elevation model.
This helps them to get the data out quickly.
By using the principles outlined in this video,
and taking the time to stop, look up,
and visualize the flood,
you're well on your way to honing your skills
to successfully find and interpret high-water marks.
It's now up to you to get into the field
and supplement this knowledge
with real world experience and training.
If you wish to learn more
about identifying and interpreting high-water marks,
be sure to read the Techniques and Methods Manual.
You can find a link to it in the description of this video.
