just out of reach 30 favorite map to quest in howling fjord that place just screams scandinavia and i have grieg s peer gynt suite running through my head when i m there posted by redbeard at 10 56 am no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels the wow life sunday june 27 2010 don t be that pally i ve heard stories from various websites and people i ve pugged with about a peculiar breed of ret spec paladin the retardin apparently this breed like the huntard and others of his ilk has an overinflated sense of ego coupled with a lack of understanding of how to play the class when you throw in tendencies to tell everyone else how to play their class you ve got the makings of a real ass that can give huntards and boomkin a run for their money having played wow for less than a year i ve not found that many retardins out there using the lfd tool probably cassandri s speculation over at hots and dots about how the tool matches people up is correct after all since i rarely see another paladin in the pugs i ve been in all that changed yesterday in tomakan s run through razorfen kraul i ve been in kraul a couple of times but that s only at l80 working on loremaster like i commented to souldat while i was in the run it s sure different when you re not steamrolling through here and you ve got competing egos to deal with the setting started with a warrior tank myself as healer and paladin hunter and mage as the dps almost from the get go the ret spec pally started on the tank use challenging shout tank use challenging shout let him go the hunter said he s doing okay he s l26 after the first boss the tank had pretty much had enough i m leaving he said oh the poor baby didn t get the helm no my friend is on and i get more xp with him and he dropped that s okay the pally said i can tank while we wait for a new one normally you d think that a four man group would slow down a bit to recover some more in between pulls but the pally kept going i was doing okay keeping my mana up by judging wisdom until the pseudo tank spoke up you re interfering with my buff he said you judge light and i ll judge wisdom i bit back what i really wanted to say and instead said just as long as you let me drink from time to time for the record he did stop to let me and the mage drink once we kind of limped along until we got to the area where the mobs can use silence the first couple of mobs were okay but the third mob was massive and nasty the first time i got silenced i stepped back getting out of their range but the pseudo tank was at the far end of the mob so i couldn t heal him without going back into range and on that second round of silencing the pseudo tank bit it i then became the target of his ire way to go standing in melee with mobs that can silence you he sniped i ignored him why don t you learn to stand out of range i ground my teeth and let him simmer with this guy it was like mud wrestling with a pig and i wanted to spend my energy on finishing off the mob which we did besides with the profanity filter on my barbs wouldn t have quite the same sting will you stop your whining the hunter demanded we survived but i lost my buffs and you don t know the cost of repairing heirloom gear if the retardin had actually paid attention and inspected everyone in the group he d have realized that we all had heirloom gear on before sending that little zinger out oh be quiet the hunter said we re almost at the end anyway we got to the last boss and naturally i couldn t heal the retardin because he ran inside and didn t pull the boss back out to where we all could reach her i ran inside and slapped naaru on him before i could get silenced or stunned and then we finished the boss off instance finished the retardin vanished why am i not surprised i asked nobody in particular moral of the story don t be an ass the instance went fine for the most part but the antics of one guy didn t make for a fun time yes i could have done some more smack talk in the instance but it would have done me no good believe it or not we were queued the entire run when we went 4 man but no tank appeared if i d harassed the retardin enough to where he dropped we d have been waiting a looong time to finish that instance also a corollary silence does not indicate assent sometimes it does when people ask if we re ready before a boss fight but other times people might actually be running the instance rather than talking smack when i m dps i can talk smack all i want but when i m healer or tank my first responsibility is to the team and i m least interested in responding to an overblown windbag trying to tell me what i can or can t do when he drove one pugger out already i ve never stopped healing someone in an instance before but don t tempt me into letting you be the first buddy posted by redbeard at 2 31 pm 22 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels paladins pugs friday june 25 2010 something odd is happening alliance actually won a wintergrasp this week and in less than 5 minutes to boot after which i received my three marks from the battle and turned them in along with another 37 and got some fancy new pvp shoulders on my warrior the night after that the alliance were back to business as usual and i had a spectacular losing streak of battle grounds but gained enough honor to purchase the wrathful cloak so hooray for losing matches with the quickness i did get the chance to get a bit of excitement though tenacity x8 makes blaaaaaaade stoooooorm a lot of fun i had 76 000 health and could drop an enemy player in 4 hits a lot less than that if they had no resilience i figured i d try to get one battleground in tonight and wsg was what came up holy crap was i astonished to see 5 other players pretty well outfitted in pvp gear and not a single heirloom weapon to be seen anywhere it was pretty much a steamroll in favor of the alliance it s interesting to see the various battlegrounds now from two perspectives the horde truly does seem intimidating and the alliance has no flippin clue what they re doing i cannot tell you the number of times i ve seen half the team go straight for the flag in eye of the storm or the entire team sans 1 person at the stables go to the mine in arathi it s an odd feeling to just look at battlegrounds as a way to farm honor instead of actually playing the game and trying to win at points when the team is just so bad i don t even feel like trying because it would be a suicide mission to do so i have to admit i ve given up and just stayed at a spawn point for a while until the match ends come to think of it i used to laugh about the crazy suicidal allinace i m a hero i ll kill you all with one fell swoop of my gurgle flop overly dramatic death animation who knew they re not suicidal they were just the only poor bastard on the team who actually was trying and now it s me i m wondering if the attitudes of the players has changed a bit with all of the instant gratification we re seeing oh crap the horde took three flags ok that just means it ll be over quicker honest to goodness i have seen alliance players justify their lack of effort as the horde has 20 minute queues and we can get in battlegrounds instantly which coming from the horde as i did i know is completely untrue it totally depends on the server battlegroup and to further the topic blizzard is making regional cross battlegrounds meaning all of north america will the thrust into the pool of players waiting to play matches which should speed up the queue times for the horde so all you horde players rejoice you ll be queuing up faster and winning the same amount as always because the alliance just sucks at rational thought and organized fights they d much rather follow the safety of the herd and just defend one node yep we sure got stables here no foul hordie is gonna take my flag yep horses such a shame we can t give them any shoes or any work to do such as hauling ore or even timber around because we d rather just let the horde have the mine lumberyard and blacksmith and we can t feed em either no farm with treatment like that i surprised the horses don t leave maybe that s what we re all there for in fact i think i ll start organizing an equestrian guard squad in the games from now on our battle cry will be hold your horses posted by deftig at 12 33 am 4 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels dk factions pvp warrior tuesday june 22 2010 where the greener is grass wow com did an article recently that talked about when your alt become your main i find myself in this boat my deathknight is pretty well geared and has around 5600 achievement points however i ve been playing my warrior a lot more than my deathknight recently and i ve been wondering if i really just enjoy the warrior class more or is it more enjoyable because it s new to me each class has it s advantages and disadvantages such as the sindgragosa fight we re working on in icc 8 grrrrr the dk is at an obvious advantage here because of anti magic shell ice bound fortitude vampiric blood blood tap there s just so many tools to keep myself up and fighting where as the warrior has a shield wall last stand and enraged regeneration which are nice abilites but not excatcly great for this fight there are fights though that it s the otherway around i am enjoying the charge intercept intervene skills versus the pull method of the deathgrip and i enjoy the dps offspec of the warrior a lot more than i do the dk there s just something enjoyable about the brutality of the warrior either my target dies or i do either way i can and will put up one hell of a fight i get those moments on the dk too but it feels some what artificial like i expect to win most fights and with the warrior i really have to work at it and i also must admit my 2v2 arena team as resto shaman unholy death knight really suffers against teams with a healing limiting mechanic mortal strike or poisons this may get fixed with one of the new spells coming in the expansion for dks though so while we re in the current expansion i m still raiding and keeping my main as my death knight i just don t know about the expansion yet we ve gotten plenty of info on dk changes but a lot of it seems to be rngish but it s too early to tell i suppose if the changes to the dk mechanics make the playstyle feel more warrior like and less rogue like i d be happier if the current systems of using an ability every gcd slowed down a little bit to allow for the proc type abilites it would bring some variation and thought to the rotation which would be nice so i m looking at either going with the pretty same as always warrior with a small change to the rage system or the dk who s getting mostly a complete mechanic overhual talent tree overhaul and more than likely months of rebalancing while they fine tune aka nerf the shit out of the changes they did how about everyone else are any of the class mechanic changes making you leery about your current main how many of you are changing main characters in the coming expansion posted by deftig at 12 56 pm 3 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels cataclysm dk warrior monday june 21 2010 i now know where the wailing comes from last friday i pulled out tomakan and dialed up wailing caverns i knew i wanted to take care of it before it disappeared from my radar and i didn t feel like trooping through the barrens to get to the entrance when i was a much higher level i ve been in wailing caverns exactly twice like most old world instances i get lost pretty darned easily in it i know what we have to do but i don t know where all the bosses are that s what the tank is for right well as soon as we got going the tank admitted he wasn t sure where everything was but he was determined to wander around to find everything i had time to kill and i wanted the achievement so i was fine with that we managed to find the first boss and downed him just in time to discover that our gnome warlock was rolling need on all items what are you doing the priest asked you can t use that axe at all i have a friend who will pay good gold he replied you noob the tank said you can t trade a bind on pickup item on the next item that dropped the lock rolled need again the priest protested and the lock replied with a weak but i could use that okay the tank said everybody rolls need from now on then it s the same as greed the lock didn t like that and began to forge ahead of the group shortly afterward the tank had to drop and he was replaced by another tank this one a gnome warrior he ported in and immediately ran to the next trash mob and pulled at the same time another mob swarmed over the lock and the hunter holy crap cried the priest i d have said something but i was kind of busy spamming heals all over the place i was literally running back and forth between two sets of mobs trying to keep everyone upright i m still not sure how i managed that one that finished the priest and lock were out of mana the tank oblivious to it all bounded forward to the next trash mob wait i shouted too late the tank had already pulled i ended up having to do a bit of dps to cover for the lack of caster support but the mob eventually went down yes the tank asked the casters need to drink oh he said bounding around the entire area what the hell happened back there i whispered to the priest the idiot lock pulled at the same time as the tank she whispered back he needs to stop doing that if he does that again he s gone sure enough the lock ran ahead of the group and pulled the next trash dammit the tank cried i began mashing the vote to kick option but the lock was moving so quickly there wasn t enough time between the next couple of mobs for us to officially hold a vote when it finally stuck the lock immediately dropped group a huge sigh of relief went up from the group when a well behaved gnome mage ported in and we continued our run there was one final misstep where we had to double back and get one final boss but compared to the first twenty minutes the last half an hour was a walk in the park when i was relating the tale to souldat who was on with his warrior at the time he replied a lot of people seem to think they can act exactly the same way as if they re an 80 running an instance i couldn t agree more shadowfang keep by contrast is a straight shot after having gone through there for the first time as a draenei on sunday i wonder why on earth the alliance would even want these worgen in the first place maybe the horde could trade the goblins for the worgen posted by redbeard at 11 37 pm 4 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels gnomes pugs friday june 18 2010 supply demand and the
