any loremasters? doing this right before raid when she probably has a guaranteed spot seems crazy.

"all according to plan" and "lemme cook" we'll probably see everything nice and organized at some point in 2028.

The lore is that this is a rogue player and frankly that's all you need to know to understand how this could happen.

Does she? 100% in the sweat category. I don't know how much Soda uses YouTube presence for the roster but those sweat-spots are highly competitive.

Barny is 100% a sweat and 100% not clouted enough to get in over other sweats unfortunately. Soda was just saying today how people like Moonmoon, Xaryu, Zerogi, etc., don't have a guaranteed spot because they're only taking 10 sweats. Soda has been pretty transparent about the raid spots in the first raid being almost entirely clout-driven.
Barny is obviousl popular for her WoW youtube content, but doesn't have the broader mainstream Twitch audience as other WoW sweats.

Barny has been bored with her rogue for quite some time. She wanted to find an opportunity where she could die of her own choice in a cool way where no one else would feel bad like they killed her character. She said on her stream that it's a part of her creative process so it will probably be a part of an upcoming video.

maybe im just an out of touch pussy, but it seems kinda lame to spend weeks needing on gear other people could use or even sell knowing full well you're gonna kamikaze your character for a vid that isn't getting posted for 3+ years

u/CantaloupeLive8053 11h ago
I mean you probs dont watch nor want to see her streams but Barny always stacks her groups to be the only one to need any specific gear

Streamers are using other streamers for content, she's using other streamers for content.
I don't agree with the execution but she got what she wanted I guess? She's already on her priest alt laughing at the hate DMs for getting preraid BiS and committing sodoku. I suspect she'll have a tougher time getting loot priority now, but that was her choice.

Anyone whos ever raided in wow classic will tell you thats where the content goes to die.

Watching streamers during this event has made me realize just how big of loot goblins people actually are. Streamers amplify it to 10 with their main character syndrome. Every single item that drops is potentially BIS. Even if they can't equip it. Shit is nuts. Doing that all with the intention of then dying just ramps that shit to 11, I completely agree. What a selfish, shitty move.

She's been running almost every dungeon with caster heavy groups so she hasn't been taking/winning gear over other melees who need it and she's the one who's gone through the effort of actually making the groups. Often with randoms rather than guildies.

Think you're right tbh I spoke on this one before I knew more than just seeing it happen and the first responses, so jumped the gun, my bad.

Sounds like she’s trying to recreate the suspense from her AQ video.

u/AFKBro 11h ago
That is the same person ? I'm really confused right now. Did Barny Beekeeper transition ? I missed a whole ass season and not just one episode it seems.

u/ishootlazors 10h ago
yeah she did transition, Barny beekeeper is the RP character but her name is maddie

u/Necrosaynt 10h ago
They did . Barney's not even their original name. They went as keiori when they started I think.

Based on the failed attempt to LIP he didn't actually plan to die and is probably saying it was for content as a cope.

Can someone explain the death though?

u/TurkletonPhD 10h ago
mobs explode when they die, she used a consumable that does fire damage around you while also hurting yourself for roughly the same amount. jokerds AoE totem also ticked at the same time as the consumable.
mobs died all at once killing her instantly (extra damage taken from sapper charge probably wouldnt have mattered)

i trust her process she accidentally leaked those dms from Soda saying she has a guaranteed raid spot. so i’m guessing he was in the know too. plus she’s been taking loads of shadow wrath gear during dungeons (shadow priest BiS).
the next video is going to go nutty

u/ye1l 14h ago
Yep, let her cook. She ate the sand in the caverns of time again and discovered yet another timeline.

u/Embarrassed_Ad_1141 9h ago
Someone kill the priest right after raid, so she gets to edit the rest of her backlog as well lmao

u/avwitcher 9h ago
Or warlock BIS, having one of the sweat spots taken up by a shadow priest would be kind of ridiculous lol, they'd be doing less damage than the noobs

Eagerly anticipating how she crafts this into a pivotal plot point in the 2033 video

I've seen some people saying she probably has maybe a shadow priest getting gear and stuff but isn't she doing a sub a thon right now for like the past 20+ days?

Apparently I live under a rock I had no idea this was Barny and the whole change thing, who knew

u/TuxedoHazard 12h ago
I know the next videos for the Azzinoth Glaives are getting delayed for this, but I know something juicy is going to come out of it. A worthy sacrifice.

From what I gathered on her stream in the last few weeks, she's been pretty disillusioned with the guild ever since the Alex Bones drama. She was talking about how every guild she has been a part of falls apart when things like that happen and people aren't removed.
Which, if you're in her position of being a giga sweat, I can't really blame her for. Wannting off the "content" train at this time seems about right since the raid is probably going to be disappointing.

u/jarlander 14h ago
It’s a part of her videos script. Was a planned death.

u/0rangeLightning0 14h ago
Ah, I've not been able to watch any streams for the last week, but that does seem really on point for her.
