4500+ to 5k+

spronk · 07-03-2009, 09:24 PM

10-man zerg is ~5k, assuming 1 tank 8 dpsers 1 healer (1 dps=kiter at end)

10/25 non-zerg doesn't really have any super hard requirements, just need people who can move out of blue circles, avoid firewalls, heal like crazy, etc. If you can clear naxx25 you can do 3d25, my guild goes in and does it 15-20 man after ulduar some weeks for the drake. you'll want a really geared MT and a couple of good healers.

Does anyone know how to customize DoTimers so it only shows my dots? Been fiddling with it for a while but can't make it work.

Shift Right Click things you don't want it to track I believe.

Can a voidwalker still play tank-mez?

Thanks, but is there a way to make it show only 'my' debuffs? I've gotten rid of everything else, but it'll still show corruption/immo/CoA from other warlocks, which is a little annoying.

nah they nerfed voidwalker tanking across the board a few weeks ago. people were also using it to tank steelbreaker-last in ulduar25.

btw leveling 70-80 the second time around is a lot easier imo, especially if you play only a few hours a day and are lucky/smart about how you play. My priest/druid are 75 now and completed two zones, Howling Fjord and Borean Tundra. I'll hit 76-77 easy with Dragonblight, then probably do the Sholozar quests (might as well start the oracle rep grind early), Hodir stuff, and Icecrown-openers to hit 80. Pretty much would leave all of zuldrak, grizzly hills, and most of storm peaks and icecrown for gold questing at 80 if I wanted.

Leveling always with rest XP, trying to level when our side owns Wintergrasp, and using the shoulder 10% xp boosts really speeds it up a bit. It helps of course too that i was like 74 when doing level 70 quests, still get 20k+ xp and the mobs get 2-3 shot.

See, that just annoys me. They nerf the tanking ability of a pet thats supposed to be a tank, and is superior ONLY when the stars align, the pet master gears for specific things crippling his DPS, specs in a way that cripples his DPS, etc..

And yet, they still feel the need to nerf the pet being great for "put that mob the fuck over there, nobody fucking touch it til were done with these other motherfuckers.

It isn't even suitable for actually killing the mob, just tank mezzing it.

Kind of a tangential question here, but I figure someone here will know. I know someone who plays with an account that isn't in their name. A friend of theirs had it spare and gave it to them to try, and now they play pretty hardcore. My question is when it comes to server transfers or name changes or anything like that is there any chance of an issue popping up due to the names not matching on the account? I'm sure plenty of people have accounts in their ex-boyfriend's name or divorces or whatever and continue on without any problem, and people who buy accounts must not get banned because they manage to use these services all the time. Just want to know if there's any trick to it in case we do want to change servers in the future(friend talked me into playing on a RP server, now we all talking about going to a high pop pvp). We have all the pertinent account information.

Palum · 07-05-2009, 02:03 PM

Not sure if it still works, but it used to be if you merge a WoW account with battle.net, it updates the information on the WoW account with the information attached to the battle.net account, essentially allowing you a one-time reset of account info.

Big W Powah! · 07-05-2009, 05:37 PM

Bah; I choose lock over hunter due to people telling me locks are rareish, and hunters are a dime a dozen; Now I see tons looking for hunters, full on locks, cause it seems opposite.

Is it just me?

spronk · 07-05-2009, 05:57 PM

its server dependent. play a class you like and enjoy, trying to ride the FOTM/what-does-everyone-want game is a bad idea.

I enjoy both. =P

the lock being in higher demand simply pushed it over the top.

Sithro · 07-05-2009, 07:05 PM

Is there a place that would be a good replacement for Zangamarsh? I fucking hate that zone.

Play the class you enjoy the most.

Every guild is always going to go "full on X" where X is whatever class you're playing, and believe me every class is full by one guild or another. What I'm trying to say is not to worry about stuff like that because by the time you're ready to play in a serious guild the population may shift in your favor. Besides, you're playing DPS.. you are a dime a dozen.
