Re: World of Warcraft

Woot, we got the two new raid bosses down finally. All the time it took was just to get a day where we could have 10 people signed on at once.

Northrend Beasts took 3 shots, since we had problems with the worm debuffs. Icehowl and Gormok were both one-shots. Jaraxxus was also a one-shot. DBM was extremely vocal during that and made most of us go deaf with all the noise.

Re: World of Warcraft

Am I the only one dreading people making more dots jokes during ony raids? Someone help me think of something witty to say back to them so I don't rage.

Re: World of Warcraft

Yeah sorry about my previous post about the new raid. I was under the impression that the people we were running with that night were geared and decent players. They weren't. I ran some stuff with them later and boy did they suck. Even in Heroics, they couldn't keep up.

We have since removed one of them from the guild for being a greedy ass and the other we just kind've ignore until she can get better, but we don't think she will. How do you manage to pull 1,000 DPS on Hodir as a Moonkin in purps? She's even worse as a healer, which is why we told her to switch to her offspec in the first place. Sigh...

The tanks from that night are both offtanks. One of them has changed his offspec since as he no longer wants to tank ever again, and the other is primarily a DPSer.

Our Raid/Guild leader finally buckled down and got stricter on who we take to raids, even if it means we can't raid. We know what'll happen if we take those kinds of people anyway.

Looking forward to the new boss next unlock. It'll put me at 25 Triumph emblems so I can buy my new relic, and they drop my dagger~

Re: World of Warcraft

Druid alt finally hit 80. Did 68-72 in Borean, 72-75 in Fjord, 75-77 in Dragonblight (skipping almost every quest--just did what was necessary for Wrathgate and a few extra), then 77-80 in Sholazar. My gear sucks royally since I skipped everything. With no enchants, no professions, no gems, no real major blue items to speak of, I did 2k DPS on a training dummy just practicing the rotation for feral dps.

The only concern I have now is which character to play. I suppose I'll grind heroics on the druid since our guild no longer raids every night and the shaman won't be used much. I was just grinding out battlegrounds on him anyway, so it might be fun to go through everything all over again.

Oh also my druid did AV so much in leveling to 80 that her mailbox was overflowing with AV marks. The EXP really is that good.

I just remembered I have like, $100 credit at Gamestop. I guess I'll buy another card.

Re: World of Warcraft

Good thing I didn't remember I used all that credit up a few months ago until I got to Gamestop.

Re: World of Warcraft

Horde Champions, VERY irritating.

Our set of six was

Disc priest
Resto shaman
Rogue
Ret Pally
Warlock
Boomkin

Which was also our kill order. We had to like, spam CC on the pull, traps, roots, fear the minion, throw stuns, pop heroism and everything we had to burn the first healer down ASAP, and then it became "How many people are alive when the second healer dies" Once it was "everybody" we finished everyone in order fairly easily after that, but even being down 1 or 2 bodies once both healers were out, it was still pretty tough.

That's what we get for being on a PvE server, where everyone's PvP skills are much less honed than they could be.

Re: World of Warcraft

Leveling through battlegrounds is amazing. When your faction has a 5-6 winning streak and does each win in 10 minutes, you have no reason not to abuse it. Not to mention, there are quests in the battlegrounds that give you huge amounts of experience and are very simple to do.

Re: World of Warcraft

Blizzard trademarked "Cataclysm" (supposedly). That really doesn't mean a whole lot. It could be a new battle.net feature or any other number of things. Speculating on new professions and game content at this point is absurd.
