[WoW] Thinking on coming back, how much has it changed? - Page 17

Watch tree of life tho in the arena.

Presarc · 06-05-2008, 12:36 PM

Tree of life is good in arena if you are druid/warlock and you are facing a druid/warlock without tree of life.

You will literally never lose. It's extremely difficult (luck chain lewl) for a warlock to kill a ToL druid with at least a decent amount of healing (and if the druid is in PvE gear it's impossible).

WarderX · 06-05-2008, 12:41 PM

Or you can just pillar hump and take 0 damage

Zest · 06-05-2008, 12:44 PM

You can beat trees as Dreamstate, but double DPS teams will rape you.

Presarc · 06-05-2008, 12:48 PM

We only went Dreamstate when all we were seeing was warrior/druid. We'd feign focus on druid then run a train on the warrior.

Even better though was in 3v3, as Warrior/Warlock/Druid. The counter-comp (initially) was Warrior/Rogue/Druid, because double melee sits on warlock = gg. Warrior has dick in hand all game because root/cyclone etc, our druid is forced to spam heals and even with 500 resil and 14k health warlock gets his butt plugged. We'd feign focus on rogue usually and all 3 switch to Druid at same time and god I loved that, owning the counter-comp at 2200 because the Druid didn't see it coming and gets death coiled charged cycloned at 30% through his hots owned.

Going into tree form with a warlock within 30 yards is about as smart as shifting into travel form with a paladin in melee range.

Until you realize that banish is the exact same spell in pvp as cyclone is (and on the same DR), and when a druid is your partner its as good as jumping around doing nothing, considering he regens mana through both.

GG.

Only advantage Banish has is the longer base duration, but it won't matter anyway after you trinket the first.

Zest · 06-05-2008, 04:21 PM

Warlock/Druid mirror matches aren't really won with CC either

I'd just like to add the official WoW forums are still a big steaming pile of shit.

edit - I'm not just talking about the actual posters, but the forum itself. it sucks

Brikker · 06-06-2008, 10:46 AM

This is probably the wrong place to ask since it seems to be the "coming back" thread, but:

I'm a well-past 2200+ buffed healing resto shaman with a ~1200ish dmg Shadow Priest girlfriend, both Alliance. We're currently in a "casual" raiding guild on Skywall and are starting to really get sick of the environment. The guilds generally suck, and while the people in our guild are very nice, we don't enjoy wiping to Hyjal trash over and over.

We're looking for a BT/Hyjal advanced or farming guild and don't mind switching servers to do it. Being FoH, most of you fools know wtf you're doing so I thought I'd ask around if anyone is Ally and raiding and is looking for Resto Shamans w/ Spriest in tow. We're both great players, love raiding, listen well, and do our homework, etc etc.

All we like to do is raid, and win.

WoW Forums -> Guild Recruitment - Alliance

Yes, non-retarded guilds check it.

Most good guilds avoid package deals though. Causes nothing but problems.

The Ancient · 06-06-2008, 11:24 AM

Oh wow, when did they break it down between Horde and Alliance?

Sabyn · 06-06-2008, 09:45 PM

Aight, I've been back into wow for a month or so now, and I am reconsidering my line. With WoTLK happening soon, does it make any sense for me to play a 70 rogue with pretty crappy gear in hopes to gear up passably to get some decent arena experience (2000+) or some raiding beyond Kara/ZA/SSC? Or would it be kinda pointless, since by the time I am there the expansion will be two weeks away and all the gear will be moot? Just continuing getting my shaman to 70, and maybe mess with another alt seems like a safer bet, since I assume that almost all lvl 74s will be about equal come WoTLK time.

Yeah, so is it too late in the content cycle to really catch up? Hope this isn't coming across too burnt out.
