      Why doesn't the guild alchemist make them for you? =x

      I'm stingy as hell and I still make flasks for my guild for free.

      ps - since our two hunters got new weapons from Uld25 and our rogue also got two new weapons from Uld25 we think we're good enough to get XT into hard mode tonight so here's hoping.

        I'd love to get XT into hard mode, but I dont think that's going to happen anytime soon. That 2 handed sword looks very nice.

        You shouldn't talk down to people you don't know anything about, acting like you know more and then try to show them up in the forum. That's how you get absolutely no where.

          I logged on today and all flasks are selling for 11ish gold.

            Man, that'd be nice, flasks sell for 40 to 50 gold on my server.

              One of the things my guild does that actually annoys me quite a bit is that virtually EVERYTHING goes into the guild bank. All BoEs (unless they're a massive upgrade), pretty much all crafted stuff, enchanting dust, etc. These are then "bought" from the guild bank by having an officer withdraw them and give them to you, after which you deposit a given price into the bank. For most things, it's half market price. In the case of flasks, that's 10-20 gold depending on the day.

              Of course you're still free to put your own things up on the AH or whatever, but the convention is that any intra-guild transactions are done through the bank.

                I've been making flasks for my guild for a while now. I farm most of my mats but keeping enough spare frost lotus just sucks. Probably going to have to borrow money from the guild to buy some off the AH, it's going for about 400g a stack :<

                  We did it. Guess what dropped?

                  This epic two-handed sword has an item level of 35. It is looted from XT-002 Deconstructor. In the Two-Handed Swords category. Added in World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King.


                  =D

                  Hard mode is like 500 times harder than regular mode.

                  In regular, you can just burn his heart low and chain phases together. After he's at 75%, he won't even be able to attack anymore.

                  In Hard, not only can you no longer do double damage during a burn phase, he does a crap-ton more damage to the tank and even more to the entire raid during Tantrums. Then the Light Bombs and Gravity Bombs are much more deadly. Light Bombs spawn adds that do 10,000 damage on hit and 800 raid damage every 3 seconds. Gravity Bombs make void zones when they drop. Then there's the enrage timer to worry about and he has more health.

                  I knew it would be hard but it was a real eye-opener as to how hard Hard Modes really are.

                    Re: World of Warcraft

                    Me and a few (read: 3 not counting myself) guildies decided to 4 man as far into Kara as we could. Setup was 72 Prot Pally (myself), 70 Holy Priest, 70 Shad Priest, and a 78 Arms War.

                    Wiped once or twice on Morose, same thing on Maiden. And then the Opera. 3 options. Big Bad Wolf, no problem. Romeo and Juliet, no problem. Oz, big problem. What do we get?

                    Oz of course. Called it quits after that wipe.

                    Warrior got his mongoose enchant, I got the pretty good tanking watch from morose, as well as the somewhat-decent-once-socketed gloves from Maiden, and the priests both walked away with some nice loot too.

                    Its pretty sad when you can do that, in under 90 minutes, in mostly Northrend blues and greens. Fun, but sad.

                      You do realize Kara was an entry-level raid. You could go there with quest reward blues from BC.

                      Go 4-man the Sunwell.

                        I'd be willing to say most players at 80 STILL couldn't do Sunwell.

                          Re: World of Warcraft

                          I have proof of that. We went with a pug of naxx-25 geared 80s and lost.

                          Most people say the limiting factor is Brutallus, but he was an easy tank and spank. Guess he was nerfed to hell. We had serious problems on Felmyst due to the lack of any priests (seriously, 25 people and no priests. It's always the damn priests. Blizzard needs to stop making dungeons require priests). We invited some <80 priest alts in and won. We did the gauntlet but lost to the twins from too many stupid people doing too many stupid things.

                          And I think we were lucky to even finish the first boss.

                            The biggest problem with people trying to do BC raids now is that they are almost universally full of level 71-75 people who spent no time at 70 end-game wearing nothing but northrend greens and a couple blues thinking "Oh yeah, we're over level 70, this will be so easy" and don't think they even need to pay attention to fight mechanics.

                              BC was good times. Sometimes I break out my full T6 set and hop on my ZA Bear looking like a badass.

                                Even with level 80s, BC raids can be difficult to finish because a lot of it is coordination and knowing what goes on during a fight. Gear is important too, but having it is just simply not enough.
