Is that why people are trash-talking you guys in trade constantly now?

Trade has been "SPIKE FLAIL ARE NINJAS DON'T RUN WITH THEM" for like 2-3 days straight now.

I was able to complete Noblegarden in a few hours yesterday. I probably collected close to 250 eggs and everything but the flower dropped for me. Finding some of the female chars for "shake your bunny maker" took a while. Other than that it was an easy and fast way to get a new title.

Downed Mimiron last night and we took a pic w/ everybody as bunny. General Vax's trash was pretty tough, only tried the boss 2 times before raid ended.

I hate ppl like that. I'm not a big achievement guy or someone who will camp out to get teh time lost proto drake, but I was very happy when my first Oracle egg hatched and it was the Green Proto. I'm in guild chat extremely happy when this guy sort of kills my buzz by listing all of his mounts.

All the world is a stage. It's just too bad we have to watch these douchebags too.

Grats on the proto. I've hatched about 100 eggs so far and only 1 was a green proto mount - so it's pretty damn rare [it's about as significant as fishing up the pet crab, pet mouse from the sewers, etc]. 50 mounts? Pfft.. you can easily BUY your way to 50 mounts - so that's really nothing special. Just curious - what did the rest of your guild say?

Every guild seems to have 1 or more self-proclaimed attentionwhorebraggingasshole that has to link every single epic, mount, or achievement they get.

We got to Yogg on 10 man this weekend. That's a fun fight! We're on Mimiron on 25 man, so we aren't too far behind there. With a little luck, and less tards, we might kill Yogg on 10 and 25 next reset.

on a side-note, I'm thinking about changing my character's name... tired of Darde, no one even knows how to pronounce it. what do you think about Kingsfall for a NE rogue, after the best-in-game dagger from 40-man KT? really wanted Gressil, but it's already taken by some level 18 troll rogue ><

edit: ooh, there's no Iblis on my server either.

No one has ever pronounced my rogue's name (Darro) properly. They pronounce it Dare-o instead of Dar-oh. I think I need to change my warlock's name (Quirdan) though... I think you can guess why.

Your GM needs to learn to not download teh pornz and "hackers" (these script kiddies don't deserve to be called hackers) ought to be a tad bid nicer .

was not his comp

Finally got yogg down tonight Server 2nd. Not too bad!

Hey quick question guys:

I have a DK tank in Detheroc and recently the guild disbanded - I ended up seeing only up to Auriaya.

I am considering either quitting or transferring servers because the guilds that I am in don't match what times I would like to raid.

How do some of you feel about server transfer?

I don't have friends in any other servers which may or may not matter (initially i'm sure it will be a different story)

What advice do you have about transferring?

Anything in particular I should look out for and research before going?

Finally here are 2 examples of guilds I am considering: input would be appreciated

Anyone having a issue with talent points? On my 31 pally i seem to get my talents bugged all the time. I have to get the reset by the GM. Whats causing this?

 

[Doc Savage Fan]

Affliction Warlock Question - Should Life Tap be part on my rotation? I have the glyph and saw something that said you only should only LT prior to 1st cast and just as you need it during the fight. I've included in my rotation but now am wondering if I'm gimping mt dps.

The hotfix/server reset was supposed to fix the talent point issues, but I'm still having some still.

That's why I don't play on PCs that I don't trust . You can be an awesome PC user, but god knows what they do and have on their PC. Although an authenticator would still help solve that problem.

maintenance till 2+ pm again today... kinda sucks having tuesdays off, I was hoping to finish my noblegarden stuff real quickly in the early AM before going out to run errands. now I'll be signing on as all the east coast kids are getting home from school.

 

[Jax Omen]

Spent all of last night fighting Mimiron. 4 hours of wipes and no boss down.

Phase four is just insane. People start dropping like flies.



We'd probably have it down if our guild could understand basic geometry though. When he fires his rotating laser death cone, for some reason our retarded ranged classes run AWAY from him while trying to circle out of the lasers, and, of course, get instagibbed. No matter how many times we tell them that running TOWARDS him while circling him will get them out of the hazard zone faster, they never listen. That or they run into mines -_-

Our tanks are also REALLY bad at repositioning him on phase four, and I don't know why, because for the tanks it should be the same as tanking phase 1, i'd think.

Lifetap as you need mana. Try to time it so that your lifetap is just before a big refresh of all your dots such that you give a bonus to everything from the glyph. The time used for casting a lifetap to keep it up 100% is better used in the casting of another spell. Time used to cast 2 lifetaps can be used to cast 1 shadowbolt, that one shadowbolt can do a lot more damage.

I think you need to give them a good ol' fashioned MS Paint diagram .

 

[lupi]

Ah yeah, I think today is supposed to be that mini patch day which is why the lob down time. I'm sure they'll make it up by finding something that got screwed up and extending it longer.

 

[Jax Omen]

Aikouka, I just posted this on my guild forums, whaddya, think of my mspaint wonder skillz?

Laser Barrage:

What is happening: (I apologize for the terrible MS Paint, the green dot is the raider, the center is Mimiron doing Laser Barrage

What SHOULD be happening:

Basic geometry. Learns it.

(the image tags work on the guild forums, so the images are inline in the post >_>)

if we don't take Ignis down tonight I'm going to go fucking mental.

we're pushed down to server 11th because we don't have any achievements (missing ignis, auryia, and mimiron) even though we've downed more bosses than guilds currently ranked higher than us and got many of the server-first 10-man kills.

I'm not sure if you said that backwards or not.

You can make a pretty good case for either, I think. It definitely looks like it could rhyme with "harrow," "barrow," (as in wheel) or "Farrow" (as in Mia), but I can just as easily see how it would be pronounced "dar-oh".

No good indicators either way, honestly.

i automatically went with "dahr-oh" due to the double r's. i know in names all the rules are out the window, but its an old habit for me. i know a woman named colleen that insists its pronounced "coh-lean" instead of "call-lean". whatever.


i just started playing again after a 2 month break. pretty fun, my shaman is now almost 71 lol.

most ranking sights dont use 10 man acheivements for anything

wowprogress is 25 mans and guildox (i really like this one) seperated out 10 mans and 25 mans into 2 cats


also Yogg vid is up

yeah... totally annoying that wowprogress is by achievement-only, though. we're out ranked by guilds that have cleared 4 bosses while we've cleared 8

 

[Anubis]

you cna sort wowprogress by kills or acheivements
