    Pre-Raid Gear

    Definitely cool functionality, and I like their sorting algorithm, as well as the "playstyle customization" stuff in terms of "too poor for crafted items" and "too lazy for rep gear." I have a little bit of philosophical hesitation about the "single-item optimization" that results from this...

    iLevels crib sheet

    I'd still argue that's better than dealing with BoP chaos orbs. IMO, crafting should be an alternative to dungeon drops. Instead, as an LW you need to run heroics to get both BoP gear and BoP orbs. I liked the BC option of there being BoP crafted armor pieces that were expensive but didn't...

    Stat Weightings - Resto Druid

    Interesting! I haven't played enough to know the story for me, but you're definitely not alone in that. Would you take spirit and haste and avoid crit and mastery generally, or do you take crit but avoid mastery? Right now I'm in a mode where I always reforge crit into spirit or haste, but...

    Stat Weightings - Resto Druid

    Yeah, it's no doubt controversial, and your diagnosis is right on where it's useful. EJ says that if you're raid healing, you'll get that mechanic less, and so mastery is worth less. If you're tank healing, you'll get that mechanic more, and so mastery is worth more. Presumably mastery is...

    iLevels crib sheet

    Since everything boils down to iLevels which fall into a relatively orderly structure, thought I'd put this together. Not quite time for a Gilgadoc .. but we're getting there. I'm including PvP items in the list ... I *think* a decent rule of thumb is to subtract ~25 iLevels to get its...

    Stat Weightings - Resto Druid

    I've been a big fan of using the Wowhead stat weightings and the Pawn add-on to evaluate gear in-game. Pawn is especially cool now as it is has a reforging advisor, it'll point out upgrades or if there isn't an upgrade, point out which quest rewards has the best vendor value, etc. However...

    Archaeology

    It is definitely excruciatingly boring to do. In a way that's disconcertingly jarring compared to how un-grindy Bliz has made so many other activities in the game. However, having built up other professions over years, I'm sure that messes with my perspective. Leveling fishing from 1 to 525...

    Leatherworking

    I think we're up to 2 max LW folks in the guild (Shadra & Gilga) with 3 more at 500+ (McFierce, Samboe, Avish) with a few more just behind that. Since you get get to 525 without actually having a ton of recipes (especially since buying the recipes costs the very same mats you need to level) ...

    how to heroics?

    From what I've heard and read, the "difficulty" isn't solvable by gear, but by skill/teamwork. WotLK heroics could be facerolled by any decently geared group. Tank pulls all mobs, dps AOE down the mobs, healer makes and eats a sandwich. /rinse /repeat. Cata heroics go back to hard classic...

    WTB Meatclysm Screenies

    "A ginger?" Seriously? You couldn't have picked red, or auburn, or even orange? Ginger? Maybe it's just a holiday season thing and the word was stuck in your head. Maybe it was Goodwone's terrible video (where somehow I was the only one to not have my head fully stick in my 'afro') that had...

    @healer types

    ^this Although I blame it less on being "different" and more on there being a learning curve to getting my right hand to unlearn left=select, right-menu and instead have it be lots of different things. I'm conditioned to do a combination WASD and then stretch up to the function keys. When...

    @Meatclysm 2010 peeps

    Gilga, Druid, heal (or DPS in a pinch) will be there. QFT. I have nothing left to contribute to this thread.

    Rebuilt my UI. Looking for advice.

    So, I just tried teh Tukui. Reaction: If I wanna play WoW, I wanna play WoW ... not EVE. It is very slick, very integrated, very polished, I'll grant. But to me ... just a radically different feel to the game.

    Getting to 85 quickly

    QFT. It starts out like any WoW advice post ... but then when you start to get into the content of what it's saying, it's utterly and completely bonkers. Frapsing yourself on the beta, watching, reviewing, adjusting techniques, recording again ... good golly.

    MMO-Champion on Hardware

    (Redeemed invasion, Redeemed invasion!) I did a ton of research prior to speccing out an Alienware M17X, specifically built for WoW. Research said that: 1) While WoW has been tweaked over the years to allow some multi-core, multi-thread use, the program is basically one giant thread, one...

    Meatclysm Mission Beach

    deets! I just sent a PM with details on next week logistics to everyone who's expressed vague interest in Meatlcysm but not subsequently said they were a no-go. If you might come and didn't get the PM ... PM me and I'll get info to you pronto, and my apologies for my omission.
