1. Roll a Mage.
2. Get to level 26.
3. Start Cone of Colding your little heart out.

Why?

You're training yourself to use Shockwave. I think we can all agree, warriors are going to be using Shockwave, a lot. You may not realize though that using a cone style aoe move isn't necessarily as easy as it sounds.

Practice makes perfect. Hop to it!

1. Rage Winterchill
- don't stand in death and decay
- wear your trinket
- use your trinket

2. Shade of Akama
- hunter traps for adds
- thunderclap, sheep, nuke
- bloodlust when Shade engages

3. Lurker Below
- jump in the water
- split in 3 groups
- tank adds

4. Void Reaver
- spread out
- ranged: run out then in
- melee: run out then in

5. High Astromancer...

When looking at the new abilities, new talents, new items, new instances, etc

Assume the best.

Understand that just because something new would be overpowered, underpowered, boring, overly trivial, etc in the current game means absolutely nothing as to it's impact in the new game.

Do yourself a favour and assume the best. You'll smile more as a result

Is it worth it?

That's what I'm faced with. I have a policy for my blog at TankingTips and that's that I don't ever talk about Patch notes until they are live. By extension I won't be talking about WotLK until it's live either.

So, I guess what I'm saying here, is I sure hope it's still worth talking about stuff other than WotLK. I've stuck to my guns up until this point and it's done me well enough so far. With the expansion likely still many months away, I have to...

As we've all pretty much deduce at this point, blocking is going to be a pretty big deal in the expansion or at least they are trying to make it that way. So, I wish for only 1 change.

Merge Block Rating and Block Value.

It's simply the only reasonable thing to do with so many talents being based on AP and Shield Slam on it's own as the only ability affected by Block Value.

Thoughts?
