Failing at Hyjal still possible

Posted 11-05-2008 at 11:49 AM by Thist
I joined a Hyjal pug thinking that 25 people in mostly purples could not fail. I was so terribly wrong.

Imagine all the things you hate about bad puggers - the naked guy, the guy in greys with a Stoppable Force, the guy hiding behind buildings, healers who never heal, dps that isn't doing any dps, at least five people making genital jokes, a leader trying to explain some impossibly complex and odd loot laws, tons of afks, only about half the people on vent, etc. I'm surprised we...

Stage of the invasion event your server is at?

Posted 11-04-2008 at 10:46 AM by Thist
On Arthas: the apothecary has set up outside aldor bank and gives you one quest to deliver a sample to your home city. Ziggurats are still around and the zombie circles.

I know some servers are more advanced, and I don't want to miss anything, so whats next?

Random stuff - new job and warrior changes

Posted 11-02-2008 at 03:34 PM by Thist
I have a new job :-) Pays a bit less, but the people are great and I am really excited about it. I do also get pre-IPO stock options, which may work out really well, but can never really say for sure.

I have been trying out a new warrior spec, and I am not that impressed at the moment. My threat is good now and it is easier to keep it high, but the damage pallies does is amazing and they are about on par with threat, and the threat druids can churn out against a single target is...

Arthas (the server), I hate you.

Posted 10-22-2008 at 12:12 PM by Thist
Server most often down.
Server most often to have instances down.
Server in worst battlegroup.
Laggiest server.
Server with longest queue times.
Server with bgs and arena most often down.
UGH!!!

Arthas was down for as long as 8 hours at a time over the last week, and went down most evenings around raid time. It is getting ridiculous.

Anyone know of a good pvp server with a medium population, nice horde people, and without a...

Truly dismal DPS

Posted 09-02-2008 at 12:23 PM by Thist
Last night I was rather dismayed at my guilds DPS on Archimonde. We kept wiping until the raid was called. It is a fight where DPS is less important than dying, but we usually chip away at his health at a decent rate.

Some attempts I was 6th or 7th in dps, and:
-prot spec
-dps gear is mostly season 3/badge
-keeping commanding shout up, no battle shout in group
-keeping demo shout up
-no windfury
-stamina food
-my battle elixir: Juju...
