The Dawn of Battle

Posted 11-07-2008 at 10:16 PM by Arold
Patch installed. Skills learned. Talents locked in. Mod's updated. Gear assembled. Time to play some Warcraft.

Frist thing I tried out was the daily quests near Doom Lord Kazzak. 3.0 protection is everything the beta and PTR testers said it would be. Warbringer, a talent I was planning to skip at one time, is so amazing that I'm not sure how I ever lived without it. My crew never got anything going that night, so I did 25 dailies and called it an evening.

2/8/51.

I had studied the gear changes on wowhead all week, but really my Gear sets didn't change much on 3.0 day. I decided to keep my T4 tank helm on all the time, mostly because it has the Block Value gem in it. Otherwise things didn't change much: the expertise badge gear for pants, belt, and bracer's all the time. The rest is all Kara or PvP gear, with one for tank and one for dps. Of course, both block value trinkets. I have a King's Defender with mongoose, and also the...

I'm going to try to write on this site once in a while, about my adventures in WoW.

I have five real-life friends that have been hardcore MMO guys forever, basically since EQ was new, I've been in a lot of betas and paid for a month on borrowed accounts here and there but never really got into the genre. Last year, after Vanguard turned out to suck, they decided to give WoW another try, partially because one guy's brother was an incredibly skilled Paladin and could get them in a...

I made a tanking funny!

I've been running H Bot alot recently. I want the tank staff. Dont ask me why, I just do. I dont want to farm the rep for Earthwarden, and we're not going into SSC to kill trash for me, so ya, I want it. It gives me something to do before wrath, and 5 badges, even now, is useful in its acquisition.

I PuGed it yesterday with some folks who, needless to say, outgear me. My druid still has 4 blues in her tank set. We had an elemental shammy in the group. I would be hard pressed to remember...

A little direction

Posted 11-07-2008 at 12:25 PM by Arethius
First time poster, Long time listener.
Feels like I just called a radio station.

First, a little about how I play. I don't tank. I thought I wanted to and I do but I don't have the gear/skill needed to do so. I can decently tank low stuff like the shadows of doom from the scourge invasion. I'm a fury warrior with titan grip so when I do tank, I carry a 2hander and a shield (Greatsword of Forlorn Visions if you're interested I don't know how to item link. Drops from warp splinter...
