Tanking stats patch 3.0+?2010-03-29 00:00:00I'm still trying to get a clear grasp of what the new changes in 3.0 mean for druid tanking. I'm hoping I can sort of think out loud here and make sure I'm correct. <br />Pre-patch, we needed our Defense to be at least 415, or have a combination of Defense and Resilience to get us to 5.6 to avoid crits. It was easy enough to just run: <br />/script <br />and see if you were over the thresh-hold or not. <br />Now with 3.0, I think my understanding is that 415 no longer means anything since with talents, we can get 6 crit reduction eliminating our need to get the extra 2.6 crit reduction (or 65 additional Defense). Now, we just need to be at 350 Defense and any Defense over that incr...
TBC pets2010-03-20 00:00:00get to taming a dragon.
And even the sporebat are cool looking. I鈥檝e tried to warm up to the ravagers, but I still see them as bulldogs of the insect kingdom.
So my plans for BC pets are thus:

The Beast Within2010-03-11 00:00:00WarcraftHunter wrote:ok thnx guess it isnt a waste for a talent point It is quite a bit more than merely not a waste of a Talent point. If you've invested up through Bestial Wrath, taking your BM build to TBW is a no brainer. <br />18 seconds each 2 minutes of: <br />20 Reduced mana cost for all of your abilities <br />10 additional damage <br />Immunity to all CC effects <br />Does the mob cast an AOE fear? You'll stand and shoot while the rest of the group is running around. Does the mob randomly sheep members of the group? You're immune to that effect. <br />I'm not sure where people get the impression that TBW causes the player to lose control of the Hunter. I've seen more than one poster with this impression, but a read of the Talent description does not even hint at suc...
Ranged Weapon Upgrade (lvl 50-60)2010-03-06 00:00:00since you're at 57 working toward the 59 PVP bow isn't a bad option. Or, you could jump to Outland once you hit 58 and there is a nice crossbow Quest reward in Thrall that is obtainable at 58, Everyone! This is my first posting, so here goes... <br />First of all, I've been a spectator on these forums for several months now and I just want to say that the quality of the information here is MUCH better than many other forums I've visited, even with the umm... entertaining off...
3.1 Info Incoming2010-02-25 00:00:001. Is ammo SERIOUSLY that big of a problem? (On a side note: /2 WTB 20 slot bag, PST!) <br />2. Cool. Wonder if they'll only be accessible by BM Hunters, or if other Hunters can still use them. <br />3. Seems nice, I wonder if the passive bonus will make SV Hunters want to max it out. Assuming it restores back mana to the Hunter, I don't see the bonus being all that gamebreaking. <br />4. Looks like a tremendous buff to MM. I wonder if they'll stack. (IE: You can have a bleed from Chimera, Aimed, and Steady Shot up all at the same time. Or even multiple Steadies!?) <br />5. This sounds really nice. From what I'm thinking, you'll want to fire off an ES, run in and...

And, even if it does, it would be MINOR and require high gear levels. Plus, I like Frost Strike, whh hits like a trk, over Deathoil.
And remember that Rime will ...
65 warrior and i just bought therystal forged2010-02-09 00:00:00currently using honed void axe on my lvl 65 warrior and i just bought therystal forged war axe for 50g is it worth using till i get my glads wep, iv seen a few lvl 69's in pvp running around with it. <br />Yes it is, unless you wanna spend a ton on Singingrystal Axe. I still use therystalforged on my 70 war as I dided to get a few pies of other honor gear before getting my sword. Another option would be to save arena points and just get the S2 sword and save your honor points for armor. <br />i like the sound of that. i have 8k honor atm at lvl 65 and im getting about 3k a day so should take t...
lkboxes Rogue lkboxes are in there for2010-02-06 00:00:00Pkpket is in there for the rogue lkboxes. Rogue lkboxes are in there for 1) lkpking skill prte and 2) free poison mats.<br />Poison mats, and used to be blinding powder (now repled by dirt). I guess they added Spinesever for a little flavor after phasing out reagent for Blind. <br />There are various ways to get you into pkpketing, there are some mros around that youan use that will automatally pkpket mobs before you use your opener from stealth. I found these to be really unreliable sie they had a habit of...
Death and in-game taxes2009-09-09 00:00:00Death comes for us all.<br />It is a fact of life, and one that cannot be argued or avoided. Everything that lives, eventually dies, and while that undeniable truth may seem macabre or sad; it poises a question that we will all eventually need answered:<br />hat happens to my in game items when I go to that big LAN Party in the sky?/p><br />Let face it we invest a lot in these games.<br />Our online lives bring us wealth and riches in the form of entertainment,...
Talent Calculator Update: Mage, Paladin, Shaman2009-08-27 00:00:00The official Wrath of the Lich King talent calculators have been updated!<br /><br />While most of the changes are tooltip clarifications and new icons for the placeholders, there are a few bigger changes as well: Enhancement Shaman's Maelstrom Weapon now makes any spell instant cast when stacked to 5, not just Lightning Bolt, Chain Lightning or Lava Burst. New tooltip: When you critically hit with a melee weapon, you reduce the cast time of your next spell by 4/8/12/16/20%. Stacks up to 5 times. Lasts 15 seconds.
