[PvP] Six Silent Shadows (video)Follow

WCM Link

Featuring Buddhist, Mahiko, Akrios, Unmercy, Bizzlesnaff, and Saeyon.

Pretty much sounds like the ultimate rogue movie; Buddhist and Mahiko are two of the most skilled rogues I've seen (Mahiko ridiculously so), Akrios added to the mix makes pretty much all the "rogue class heroes".

I've been looking forward to this movie since Buddhist plugged it in his Ming must die! 3v3 video (which, if you haven't watched, do so now--hilariously funny if you've payed any attention to the Buddhist/Ming edrama, and definitely shows the potential of the class--and look the the amount of downloads/skill points Buddhist has gotten for it), and I'm hoping it doesn't disappoint.

But with 400GB of raw video going into the editing process and a 1GB final cut, and the video coming from three of the best rogues I know, I don't think it'll disappoint. I'll edit later with my personal feelings after watching it.

Yeah, seriously the best movie I've ever seen.

Hilarious and all the skill that you'd expect from a movie with Akrios/Buddhist/Mahiko/Unmercy.

Yeah, I agree, but you could see some of that in the video.

It also wasn't meant to be a pure "oshi, he just did WHA?" video.

I agree. It was a solid performance from them all. I loved the intermission, too.

The music was pretty cool, and very original.

It makes me want to grab Therion and go into some bgs. I'll hide and watch him die, though. Haha.

If you haven't seen Unmercy, he kinda puts Buddhist and even Mahiko (who I've dueled before on TR and lost to pretty hard; he'd be countering everything I did before I even did it) to shame.

See the trinketed Blind on the mage that he instantly gouges for an example. The swirly ball effect of the trinket was still traveling on the mage as he gouged; ridiculous timing.

As Kavekk said, it's not as technically amazing as Mahiko Trilogy or Unmercy's full videos, but there's still some great footage in there, in among the hilarity.

I'd also like to take the time to say "On a Boat" by The Lonely Island is an amazing song. I was cracking up every time I heard it (I watched the video like 4-5 times yesterday as I was leveling).

Thanks for the tip. I'll have plenty to watch tomorrow, I guess. I really ought to get back into arena... It's just not that easy on a RP server if your standard partner's lost interest in it. Then again, I can't blame him, he currently has 4 different specs and needs to respec easily twice a day. "Dual spec" that, Blizz.

Yeah, pretty much.

I've seen that as well; also equally hilarious.

Provide a description with what addon(s) you want to know about and I'll tell you.

I'm not going to go through the entire movie and tell you what addons they're using in each scene.

I know almost none. :)

The small energy counter in Saeyon part.

In mahiko part the one that tells you what spell the target is casting and how long are they in channeling it. The one in the middle of screen that tells you leave/enter combat, gain CPs, etc.

Unmercy - the one that makes your poison and effect icons under your target bigger and shows how long they're gonna last.

Saeyon's energy counter is probably the new version of EnergyWatch.

Mahiko uses the standard Blizzard UI with castbars enabled and the Focus frame moved to a more central location, probably with FluidFrames.

Unmercy was using XPerl unit frames. There's an option that allows you to increase your debuffs on the target in size to make the easier to see.

I'm pretty sure the defaul UI allows you to move your focus frame around. you'll get a little dropdown menu when clicking it, where you can either clear focus, or lock/unlock it. Allowing to drag it around the screen.

About the video: Very nice made. That's some skilled guys running around :)

I'm guessing it's ScrolingCombatText - SCT.
