Wow... I have to say, the Oculus is really something special. The usual suspects don't have much on it, so I won't throw in a sploiler though I am so dying to. I just have to say - this is really something new.

Nice work Blizzard.

Now, stupid move of stupid moves; I didn't check - there's a quest that has a protection warrior piece as a reward for this dungeon and I didn't pick it up. :/

So I just walked in to the Orgrimmar PVP hut; Hall of Legends or whatnot. The PVP armor dealer in there has like a rogue version of the premade neck and cloak we all get that has 1% hit instead of the .75% crit that you start out with as a warrior.

I just traded most of my premade 75000 honor for 2% hit! Woot! I also have a throwing knife with +hit on it, so I'm up to 4.3 % or so. Nice!

So after the Eternally Folded Blade dropped for me last night, my question now is, of course, is it any better than the premade Savage Gladiator's Slicer I started with?

Only the Eternally Folded Blade can be considered a tanking weapon, of course, based on its overall design - and yet, you're giving up stamina, DPS, attack power and avoidance...

So last night was my third time through Halls of Lightning. We were going to do the "daily heroic", but someone in /Trade was saying that it was down, and heck, I don't know where Utgarde Keep is anyway. Most of my time in the beta is concerned with: 1) dealing with 2fps in Dalaran long enough to repair and get out, and 2) LFG, get to Naxx/CotStrat/Halls and then crash!

So anyway.We had fun at it. Let the DK tank a bit, it was fun to watch. The animation of the hands on...

So the first boss in Naxx was hard enough we could not one shot him in the blue/purp PVP gear we all start with, if you only bring nine people. After our first attempt, Naxx crashed. Doh!

Oh well, it is a beta.

Looking forward to getting back in there.
