WoW: This warrior plays better with a gamepad than most with a keyboard

The warrior DesMephisto also rocks with the gamepad in WoW. He has achieved a tough achievement that many others fail at.

Hand on heart. World of Warcraft with a PS4 controller or an Xbox gamepad is somehow not the best choice. But there are always some players who prove that it can be better than just “acceptable”.

Who is that? DesMephisto has been gaining more and more attention in recent years. On one hand, he loves the warrior class above all and has several dozen warriors – one for each race and both genders. On the other hand, he collects money for good causes and entertains many people with his streams. The streams are always cheerful and full of good mood.

Even Blizzard has honored him and dedicated an item to him.

What has he achieved? Mephisto has now revealed on Twitter that he completed the achievement “Keystone Master” in Shadowlands. This achievement requires players to complete all dungeons at the Mythic+15 difficulty level within the time limit. The achievement rewards a nice mount and is one of the usual prestige achievements of a season.

Anyone who thinks “So what? Many have achieved that …” is right and wrong at the same time. Because DesMephisto did not control his warrior with the keyboard, but with a gamepad.

How did he do it? Since Shadowlands, WoW supports controller input on its own, but with some addons, the experience can be even better. Many buttons need to be double mapped, such as using modifiers like the shoulder buttons.

DesMephisto explained that some things were more challenging with the gamepad. Quickly getting out of harmful area effects is more cumbersome, as you often need to turn the character a bit with the sticks – with the mouse, that would be a single, jerky motion.

However, it was relatively easy to stay close to mobs and use the sticks to align your position behind them. With a bit of practice, it was said to be even easier than with mouse and keyboard.

What do you think of this achievement? Cool thing and impressive? Or not particularly special and easy to replicate?

Right now, DesMephisto is busy gathering Anima – if you want to do that too, we have a guide for efficient Anima farming.
