Alliance filth! Kill him! KILL HIM!! :winkold: Jokes. I'm ignorant of all things pally. If you dont do much damage, do you have something similar to taunt to hold aggro? And doesnt your aggro drop if you bubble?
-
Regular reader here.... .... but also a player and an occasional poster. That level 1 is priceless, Rev. I did some PvP with a pug in Halaa a couple of days ago and noticed a level 28 on the alliance side. He was one-shotted by someone before I could even get close. Easiest token ever.
-
Done the dung quest in Nagrand yet? Much like any other quest in wow - you run around picking shit up.... ... only it's literal for this quest.
-
Who, me?
-
Shhh... ... dont tell ED. :winkold:
-
Oh it applies to every class, some classes are just overpopulated. Heh heh... Try telling that to a non-resto spec'd shaman and keeping a straight face.
-
Now that I cant argue with. I like Lee, I think he has great talent and is a real asset. But Merson was better. Perhaps that's it then. They have their flaws, but maybe Hendries are more in his personality whereas Merson had some personal struggles. Still, I'd like to see Hendrie get his chance under MON.
-
Neither would I, PB. Merson played many games for England, Lee played 1. There is a reason for that. The similarities are just with their role on the pitch, and their poor behaviour off the field. Interesting how many have opposite views on them. And that is the only point I am trying to make.
-
I dont remember Hendrie having a drinking problem I dont remember Hendrie having a gambling problem I dont remember Hendrie ever stop running or go missing like Merson would. I dont remember Merson celebrating a goal like Hendrie did. The point I was making was simply this: Both players were flawed. And both had some real talent that - when on song - was a joy to behold. However, one is regarded as a "legend" in his 3 villa seasons. The other - despite 10 years of service - is a favourite with the boo boys.
-
I wouldn't be so harsh on yourself, Blandy. Most of what you write is not only right but well thought out and well presented. I - like most posters here, I suspect - not only enjoy your posts and game reviews but look forward to them. Sorry if this comes across as pissing in your pocket - it's not meant that way. As for Hendrie - is there any news of his staying or going yet?
-
Would it be fair to say that this is how it starts because people are still learning? And because it's very easy to die just by aggroing 2 mobs? Conversely, by Level 70, would it be fair to assume that they know their class/role (more or less) and so it could change to a different proportion other than 0.3333?
-
Those of you who like to see the Villa knock the ball around in a creative, dangerous manner will look back on some of our better performances under JG and DOL and see the name Hendrie on the team sheet. When coupled with players who like to push the ball around and move intelligently - particularly Angel, Solano and Barry - Hendrie was in his element and would cause opposition defence all sorts of headaches with his dummies, turns and lay offs. He could also shoot from a distance and scored some spectacular goals. I would like to see him get his chance under MON - especially as Davis has been out of sorts and Petrov struggling to find his feet. However, people seem to judge him by his off the pitch behaviour and the fact that he was NOT the "ball-winner" type of midfielder.... ... while conveniently forgetting that this mirrored Merson's behaviour and playing style - who remains a firm fan favourite.

Confirmation that Blizzard didn't think too hard about the shaman class in BC: Level 61 Totem Level 70 Epic equivalent Uhuh. And more windfury problems. Casting windfury 4 on both your main and offhand means you cannot proc the off hand for 3 seconds after the main hand. Why? Because that was their fix for stopping windfury proccing windfury, apparently. However, cast windfury 4 on your main and windfury 3 on your offhand, and you can. Whats more, the proc will stack it's attack power if you get both at once - meaning a massive burst - and there are many reports that the main hand swings 4 times instead of 2, since it cant tell which weapon proc'd windfury. Awesome stuff.
-
Ah, Elemental Mastery. I do miss that. But have made up my mind to stay full DPS since I hate just healing in end game/instances. 0/41/11 at level 62, with a view to going 0/42/19 at 70.
-
Heya Juju Shammies feel much the same way. We get owned in PVP and our talent trees outside of resto are limited and largely hopeless. We now have Pallies on the Horde side, which do a better job at buffing, tanking and healing and now deal decent DPS. Add to that the limited gear for pure DPS shammies (be that melee or casting) and there is no point inviting one to a raid. But the hope is that, by level 70, some of these problems will be addressed. I'm not ready to give up just yet.
-
Too true. Managed to off heal in the ramparts as an Enhance shammy with zero healing gear while the main healer was a feral druid. It can be done.... ... but a priest - of any build - would've done it better.
-
Heh heh... Wait till he gets Ghost Wolf: a 40% speed increase compared to aspect of the cheetah's 30%. Nerf! *e-peen alert* Got my highest Windfury crit ever yesterday. A clothie in the Ramparts for 1k normal then 1.5k wf. Damn thing dropped so I didn't get my third swing :cry:
-
Nope. Tried it but the executable fails. Bummer. As for BC - played for 1 hour, did 2 quests and already swapped out my epic Skyfury Helm for some quest green.
-
Nicely said, PB. However, I would not call The General's comments about European cups and the like "ill-advised". The last thing I wanted from a takeover was someone with the same "ambition" as Ellis: Survival and scrape Europe every now and again. I want to see them aiming high. And I want to see that immediately - not in 5 years time. Granted, it may not happen for years - but the ambition must be there from the beginning, or it will never happen.
-
Diamonds? Ouch. Pretty sure you could use them for sockets come BC. As for the epic stuff - I have a few I wont ever use sitting in my bank too. I will shard them... ... but probably not till I've levelled a bit and can confirm they are truly useless. (Read: No balls here either).
-
Anybody tried out the AV/AB bug? Basically, you can cap the flag from a distance - which means Far Sight or Eagle Eye can be used. Problem is, you need to be at the perfect height on the flag, or it wont work - and the alliance are on the lookout for people trying the hack. I haven't succeeded, but a guildie managed to claim an AV bunker by bouncing Far Sight off the inside wall.
-
Exactly.
-
Nope. Damn resto shammies! You are almost as annoying as a pally! :winkold:
-
Your right, Rev. I've got totems down which buffs my crit and AP and provide a little bit of healing. Shock and storm strike when possible and keep lightning shield up. Offhand enchanted with Frostbrand or Flametongue to add additional magic damage. Warstomp heal, PvP bubble trinket heal and pot if necessary. All this while running in circles around the warrior. Even then, it's touch and go. Standing toe to toe sees me down with only 20% hp damage to the warrior.
-
Which always made me wonder why Mana spring doesn't do the same. Ok, it's not healing, but couldn't it work off your existing mana regen? Not when you are dual wielding. It's a close fight, but execute usually wins it for the warriors. Had that happen in AB the other day, so I popped and frost shocked the last 3% of the warrior's health and then bandaged. He then chased me around for the rest of the game
