CyberPowerPC - Unleash The Power

Yeah think I will put my raiding on hold when I get my account back as WoTLK could be here soon, so level my lock to 70 and my priest to 70 first. Then if I still got time, farm like there is no tomorrow.

Not usually unless it's MC or some specific encounters, Fire > Ice for DPS.

So how are people progressing with leveling on burning blade? (I'm lvl 17 at mo). Do we have enough people to get a guild up and running? think I should have enough gold to pay for the registration if needed.

Personally I tired of raiding when we got to AQ, my guild was allways PvP untill we were forced into raiding to compete gear wise, and then i gave up when battle groups were introduced due to the massive increase in wait times between matches.

Skullcrusher used to have a pretty much 50/50 horde/ally split and ques times were 1-2mins max. I still long for the old days of hunting horde in the wilds and camping the bulwark :)

If we do get some peeps together tomorrow then we can start getting through some early instances. Be good doing it from a healers' POV rather than DPS for a change.

Same here, never healed hence I picked a Priest for new char (Albeit Shadow, but that's for leveling really). 

I liked the role of a mage in instances tbh. I wait for the sheep symbol to appear and the skull so that I organize my position and then wait for the pull to sheep. After that I fall back and start the chain of bolts until the mobs die or try to save things with cc when things go bad.

Now our guild has a guild conference using vent and we all have Omen threat meter to be safer from wipeouts. The march has begun 

Rarr the weekend is nearly here... All night tonight and all day Sunday..

If you don't sheep at the exact second, it runs up and 12k hits anyone but a tank and wipes raid, one second too early and it evades, one second too late and your raid loses a member or two as it cleaves. :P No pressure or anything like XD I'll manage lol Originally posted by Cyber_Tech Rarr the weekend is nearly here...

Yeah I bet you will :P Our mages screw it up alot, but we always got an OT waiting to pick it up and wait for re-sheep.

I'll try and get on for a bit tonight and sunday - maybe we can try and get a guild set uo.

Suggestions for the name?

Originally posted by Virtualknight I manage to get a spot to sheep on time but there is always someone breaking my sheep with multishot or a loose pet. Some players are just clueless

Mate this isn't like in instances. In instances they say, there is a monster, mark it and say sheep that and you sheep. In this your fighting a boss that if it hits you will 1 hit kill you, every 30 seconds does a twirl of water if it hits you you die in 1 hit, and whirls every 15 seconds which will knock you into water that does 6k hit damage and then 300 damage a second in the water. And then the boss submergers, adds appear on the three islands, two archers on islands and 3 hard hitters in the middle, you have to leave one for another mage, leave the other for a warrior to pick up and select the monster sheep it and keep it sheeped. (May I add this sounds easy, but the monsters can only be targeted once they are on the island and started moving, so if you don't get it the like nano-second right, someone in the raid dies, more than likely two of them)

Alot different to instances mate.

Yeah I'm not saying it's impossible, I'm saying it's nothing like instances. But I doubt you will get up to SSC raiding , expansion will be out before your guild makes it up there I think.

Yeah although nothing you do in this expansion will contribute to raiding at 80, will be ghey at 80 for first few months. Everyone will be full 80 instance blues trying to down the imba hard epic dropping raid bosses like Karazhan when TBC came out at first.

But all the epics you get now, you will replace with green items at like level 71 like what happened with all the epics people got before TBC came out.

Originally posted by VirtualKnight Yeah I realized that by comparing old epics with TBC greens and I was honestly shocked I am trying to decide between mooncloth, spellfire and shadoweave training but I'll probably go for spellfire for a fire dps spec made for raiding. I am even considering the extreme version with Icy veins instead of Arcance concentration. If I ever play PvP like that it will be with a group and I'll mainly be support dps

Yeah spellfire is the best for you, mooncloth is healers gear and shadowweave is frost mage and shadow damage so warlock also. So spellfire is the best for you.

My advice is to go frost spec when you get the patterns learned to make the spellfire/strike stuff. So you can easily farm the primal Fires, as it's difficult as fire mage. Then go fire when you got them all.

I'm interested to see the difference later on (60-70) with my lock Vs Shadow Priest. Wonder which is better PvE/PvP? Be nice to have the comparison from a players view.

I played Affliction though

I wouldn't know like... consistently very high on DPS in raids and PvP... it's all of the instant cast DoTs that bring up your damage. With destruction yes there's great Burst damage but in large scale PvP, Affliction rules ....

Should be interesting then!

Some great Demonology powers as well, insanely hard to kill as well usually.

Got the key to Shadow Labyrinth last night with a group including myself (lvl 64 mage), a lvl 70 warrior, a lvl 67 druid, a level 70 druid and a level 68 hunter. Most mobs were immune or resisted some sort of magic so I had to come up with variations to be efficient. Ended up 2nd in the total damage which is not bad considering my level but I feel that I can improve even more.

oops sorry, wrong forum.

lol XD.

Yeah Shadow Labs is a hard level 70 instance when your just starting out at 70. The 2nd boss is a pain in the ass, anyone who is 70 will tell you the same. Full green group fighting him is funny, always ends in deaths.

Basically every 30 seconds he takes control of everyone in the party and makes you pop all cooldowns and fight each other, so got to keep topped up hp at all times. The time I remember was when our resto druid was ganked by everyone in the group and killed, so when we went out of mind control we had no healer and wiped.

Originally posted by Virtualknight That must have been at least slightly funny though

Oh yeah it was, totally hillarious. But after the like 4 groups I got into where the healers weren't mana efficient enough to heal through that boss (was near start of TBC) it wasn't.

But it's easy with players who got semi-decent blues and know how to play the game lol.

I don't do instances anymore in PuG's I hate them. I only do guild/friend runs, and mostly for shards and reputation. But then again it is funny some times, just not the " swe?" then the entire group starts talking in Swedish and you don't know what is going on.

Happens 9/10 groups you get in on my server, that's why I am glad my guild has a English only in guild chat and ventrilo.

Yeah my last guild had no structure at all. They were raiding at SSC level and TK. And were willing to gear me up fast, but the leader was an obnoxious idiot who only let people raid who sucked up to him. Like they would talk about how they wanted to go meet him etc and everytime he said something everyone would laugh, bah.

I left that for my new guild, all raids planned a week ahead, fill 25 man raids daily easily, everyone is mature. Only 4 English people including me, but my brother is joining soon as Off Tank.

Hardly get any time to play, but 26 BE Shadow Priest. Equipment coming on nicely too. This weekend got Saturday and some of Sunday to play so heres hoping for about level 35 after hardcore instance runs in Razorfen Kraul.

Been 70 for a while. My new guild took me through kara first night of joining got 3 epics from it lol. Done Kara 3 times but not full runs and i got nearly full epics. Did Zul'Aman once and got epic plate healing helm :D
