Small steps forward, big turns back

Posted 06-09-2009 at 02:24 PM by Machus

I think that over the years Blizzard fixed a huge number of small issues about the game while making big conceptual mistakes about its direction.

In the classic game, leveling was fun, and the game looked big and interesting. The world had its own life and players were very free to enjoy it as they wished. The whole game appeared like it would last forever, and only get bigger. Raiding suited a wide range of abilities. Some things wrong with the classic game were as follows:

Warrior Ability Retrospective #3 - Thunder Clap

Thunder Clap - 20 rage - 6 second cooldown

Currently, this is the warrior's frontload AoE ability. Perfect for the initial burst aggro on a group of mobs, and has a place in an AoE threat rotation. Talented thunder clap makes it 2x as effective and cheaper to boot - a...

Team Tanking

Posted 06-09-2009 at 01:38 PM by Gerronimo (Swipe and Maul)

Da Bear RETURNS! Well actually I never quite left, I just never spent the time to blog about things. I wasn't receiving a lot of feedback so I just stopped for a while. After reading back through some of my previous entries I realize I should be doing this for myself, not for any potential audience.

So here I am. Back to blogging.


So many things have happened...

My little guild of friends has really blossomed, and I'm quite proud. I'm now GM...

My wife.....the Champion

Posted 06-09-2009 at 07:19 AM by Exiled

I wanted to leave the guild but my wife had made a few friends with some of the other guildies.

Apparently, they were full of praise for her healing and my tanking.

So, we agreed to stay and see how things went.

As she now had the Naxx achievement, all she needed was H Occulus.

Our only previous attempt was regular, which was a total disaster and we agreed never to return.

However, she wanted the title. More just to show off...

It was meant to be a wipefest

Posted 06-09-2009 at 01:36 AM by Shortypop

Two blogs in as many days - aren't you lucky! But in all seriousness I couldn't let last night slip by without writing about it.

With the help of one offspec and one alt we headed towards Mimi and before you accuse me of pessimism between 5-10 of the group had never seen the fight and after all it's Mimi - with four phases, countless ways to kill yourself in oneshot and not forgetting the complete pandemonium that Phase 4 is!

An hour later and the wipefest prediction...
