A good day...

Posted 05-12-2008 at 06:12 AM by Melenkurion
It seems that the tanking blues are over. After several unsuccessful attempts in recruiting healers and reliable CC, I decided to make a move for greener pastures. Yes, I quit my guild. Not that I was overly attached to it, but I enjoyed the camaraderie and good-humored proding that always ensued. Now I found me another guild... a new guild, one that has the fire for raiding and the patience to deal with my strong mood swings.

Anyway, I went back to Kara. And Let me tell you, if all...

Giving up on expertise

Here's an oddity for you: Last night I got [item]Frayed Tether of the Drowned[/item]. I thought "It's weird this is the only item with defense and hit rating..." So I checked Wowdb to see. [item]Mark of C'thun[/item] has Defense and hit rating, which is cool, it also has dodge, but it's kinda old world...

Fortunately, the mark has a BC counterpart: [item]Pendant of Titans[/item].

Field testing in heroics last night, I noticed almost no difference in threat...

Tethered to defense rating.

We had a pretty successful joint raid tonight. Two new bosses down for my old guild: FLK and Fathom Lord.

I didn't do much tanking, I got to cat while the three warriors tanked trash... then we got to the bosses and I was pushed up front to tank. Kinda backwards I figure, but hey, I'm not going to complain. first time tanking FLK, and I manage an epic fail: Faerie Fire Feral double resisted on pull, and I couldn't reach FLK. He ran over and started eating people and... wipe....

Elemental damage

I don't know why, but elemental damage is something I find immensely interesting. I find myself often championing a non-generalized approach to things. It's an open mind that allows one to see the true value in things, and the possibilities of seldom-explored dimensions of existing knowledge. And that's the most pretentious sentence, I suspect, that I've ever written. However, it's true. I quietly cheer to myself whenever I inspect a hunter to find leather gear which exceeds any mail he's come...

Speed Racer was the most visually stunning movie I have seen since I first laid my eyes upon The Matrix. Within five minutes your eyes will be tantalized like never before. I won't say much more, but I will say that the movie holds its own without the stunning visuals. This movie blew my senses and surprised the fuck out of me. I never, EVER, saw a flick of this quality coming. The Wachowski's have done it again, and done it well.

I give this movie one of my strongest possible recommendations...
