Cataclysm Beta - Build 12759

2010-08-14T01:48:00.001-05:00

A new beta build has been deployed on the servers. Expect the complete list of changes soon!

Okay, Heads We Keep the Changes, Tails We Re-evaluate

2010-07-15T01:25:00.000-05:00

Despite my post the other day, another interesting Blue Quote showed up today:

I'm going to regret saying this, but the paladin trees are the most changed in the game. There are only a few of the current beta talents that survived the, um, cleansing.

What does this mean? That, well, basically everything I posted the other day has been changed or slated for the next Beta build.

It is good to know though that they are actively working on talent trees.

~Ron

2010-07-14T00:56:00.000-05:00

First! Lemme say that, at the time of posting this, nothing is considered finalized (or even official)- it is all data mined from my buddy Bibi over at MMO-C.

Anyhow, to what you came to see! I'll list each talent, what each one does, and my personal option on it. I'll also include the other 2 Tiers from Prot and Holy, since those will also be accessible.

Ret Tree
Tier 1

Imp Judgements (Decreases the cooldown on your Judgement ability by 1/2 sec): I don't see this going anywhere, its a good damage increase and TPS increase, useful to all 3 specs.
Heart of the Crusader (Increased chance to crit against the enemy by 1/2/3% when Judgement debuff is active): Placeholder- this debuff is going away.
Crusade (Increases the Damage and Healing of CS, Holy Shock, and HotR by 15%. Increased 15% damage on Hum/UnD/Dmn/Ele/Drg): I can see this being reworked or gutted, as 15% is a hefty amount, and it will make it hard for us to be balanced on specific fights- Anything that is Mechanical or that is a Beast.

Tier 2:

EfaE (10% on damage taken to cast Judgement on the target): Big improvement over the current version, and procing off of all Damaging attacks makes it interesting for Tanking- ~~However, is it simply Judgement damage, or the debuff? Which Judgement debuff? Will the Judgement debuff still be on our intended target?~~
Righteous Vengeance (Deals an additional 10/2030% damage of your CS/DS/Judge/HotR crits over 8 sec)- Same on what it is on Live, except Prot will beable to pick it up for more TPS- The wording does scare me, as it still only lists 3 attacks for Ret.
Pursuit of Justice (7/15% non-stacking Movement Speed increase): Its a shame that it is the same thing, without any additional benefits- Moreso when the SAME 15% movement speed can be picked up by all Melee classes, save Warriors.

Tier 3

Judgements of the Wise (Unchanged): Would still like for some passive mana benefit, incase Judgements are 100% absorbed.
The Art of War (Reduces cast time on next Holy Light/Exorcism by 50/100%): Unchanged, in the sense that Holy Light will be the new Flash of Light.
Seals of Retribution (SoRet) (All damaging seals cause an additional 15% weapon damage as Holy. SoR hits 2 additional targets): Basically makes SoR the new SoC, and adding a small damage modifier to it- So almost unchanged. It is really sad that an 11pt "new exciting talent" is a passive ability.

Tier 4

Swift Retribution (Increases Melee/Ranged attack speed by 7/14/20%): Fold of buffs for 10m guilds/raids- Nice for single use, justifiable for PvP, but changes nothing for PvE.
Sanctified Retribution (Seriously, RENAME SOME GODDAMN TALENTS): Placeholder for 21pt ability? Same as on Live, but for 3 points?
Sanctified Wrath (Reduces AW cooldown by 60 sec. Increases HoW Crit chance by 25/50%. Allows use of HoW as if the target had 20% HP): Decent for PvP, and depending on how HoW is in terms of damage, maybe decent for PvE. Some nice potential for synergy with that currently useless Glyph of Avenging Wrath.

Tier 5

Conviction (On Crit, gives 1/2/3% increased Holy and Physical damage, stacks 3 times): A renamed Vengeance (probably to prevent confusion with the Tank ability, Vengeance); Boring and Obsolete.
Sanctity of Battle (Increases Exorcism damage by 10/20%, reduces cooldown by 2/4 sec): Instead of boosting CS damage, now reduces Exorcism cooldown. A big let down for PvE unless the damage on Exorcism is modified.
Divine Ret: NYI, so no info here.

Other trees:

Holy
Tier 1

Sanctified Light: (Increased Crit chance of HS and Judgement by 5/10/15%): Nice damage boost for both spells

Tier 2

Judgements of the Pure (On Judgement cast, gains 3/6/9% Attack and Cast speed): Potential to go down the Holy tree- However, we'd have to give up 15% Seal/Judge damage.

Protection
Tier 1

Seals of the Pure (5/10/15% Increased Seal and Judgement damage): With SoC removed, this talent is the same as live, but for 3 pts instead of 5.
Imp HoJ (10/20 sec reduced cooldown): Nice to have higher in the tree for all PvP specs- Would be REALLY nice for HoJ to have a base cooldown of 30 seconds and a stun of 3 seconds off the GCD, to be used as an interrupt for Ret and Prot.

Tier 2

Judgements of the Just (Same as Live): Still lackluster "benefit" for Seal of Lol- Nice to have since Vindication is out of reach now.
Guardian's favor: Same as on Live.
Sacred Oath (4/7/10% increased damage when using a 1 hander, 10/20/30% Sacred Shield absorption): While the damage boost is no good, Sacred Shield might be better for PvP a bit now.

~Ron

We Know What We're Doing.... Sorta.

2010-07-11T02:02:00.001-05:00

So it appears that they reversed the decision to make Divine Storm available at level 10. Personally, I think that it is fine as long as Seal of Command is baseline, because that should be enough AE ability until level 51 when Divine Storm will most likely become available through talents (as the 21 point ability).

In addition, Ghostcrawler also comment on how Divine Storm will not be given the "Meteor Strike" treatment- Divine Storm will be only used for AE purposes. With the information given so far, we will (most likely) try to skip over Divine Storm if it is not mandatory (depending on what else we have for talents).

~Ron

New Talent changes planned for Cataclysm

2010-07-08T00:53:00.003-05:00

New changes are coming soon (tm)! Before I begin with anything, please read the following:

http://blue.mmo-champion.com/t/25626290449/cataclysm-class-amp-mastery-systems-update/

Did you read that yet? In all it's entirety? Good.

Here is a quick rundown of what we can expect for things to come

At level 10, you choose a Specialization (Lets choose, hmm, I don't know, Retribution)
Once you place your first talent point, you gain passive abilities and "standard" abilities that your spec needs to be viable. Going with our randomly picked example above, we'd gain both increased Melee Damage, increased Melee Crit Chance, and Divine Storm- ALL at level 10, in addition to our bonus from the first talent point.
Talent points will be gained every even level, and new spells will be gained every odd level (roughly).
Once you choose a Specialization at level 10, you CANNOT spec in any "off tree"- This means no talent points in either Protection or Holy- until level 70 (or, until you gain your level 31 ability).
Most trees have 38-42 total talents.
Mastery will be a level 75 (or 77, etc.) trainable ability- This is where the "third bonus" of today's trees come into play. I'll assume you get a slight passive bonus, as the Mastery stat does not appear on gear until later.
You will have a total of 41 points available to spent at level 85, with a minimum build of 0/0/31 in this example.
Duel specs will work just like they work on live.
All of these changes are included in the Beta Build, and are ready to go! Yay!

In addition, 2 good Blue quotes by none other than GC popped up, when asked abotu Rets with the new Talent system:

Ret Paladins should feel like Arms warriors who trade off some of their mobility for healing and defenses, and do more Holy damage instead of bleed damage

Final ret talent is more likely to be "Adds 2% additional stats to your blessing of kings"
No, it will be Repentance.

Or maybe Lacerate (the Survival hunter one).

(No it won't.)

From these 2 posts, we can infer that:

We may or may not get a gap closer or snare.
We may keep some of our defenses, possibly Cleanse or Divine Protection.
There will be 3 more "interesting" talents for Ret (since 2 of them, Crusader Strike and Divine Storm, are "baseline" to the spec).

All in All, things look pretty good so far. It will be a very interesting an exciting week once these changes are shown. Stay tuned for more news soon, as well as a complete Talent point breakdown!

NDA is lifted!

2010-07-01T01:00:00.002-05:00

"Our focus with Cataclysm has been to build on the knowledge we've gained through the previous expansions to deliver the best, most compelling World of Warcraft content for our players to date," said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. "Gathering focused feedback during the beta test will go a long way in helping us reach that goal when we launch Cataclysm later this year", says Blizzard as they release the statement saying that the NDA has been lifted.

Quickly looking over the Paladin Spells/Tree, the following can be found:

Seal of Corruption/Vengeance:

Fills the Paladin with holy power, causing all single-target attacks to apply Blood Corruption[Holy Vengeance], which deals [ 13% of AP + 6.5% of Spell Power ] additional Holy damage over 15 sec.

We can infer that the Seal system is not going anywhere, which is kind of disappointing and is a lackluster mechanic. In any case, the key word here is that all single-target abilities will stack the debuff (which also benefits form haste and crit)- Meaning that currently, instead of taking 15 seconds to build up a 5 stack, it should take about 9 seconds instead (3 Melee hits and 2 Crusader Strikes).

Blessing of Might:

Places a Blessing on the friendly target, increasing attack power by 10% and restoring 1 mana every 5 seconds for 1 hr.

Blessing of Might and Blessing of Wisdom will be combined, however, it looks like the Ap gain is changed to a flat percentage, which is bad news for us overall. 1 hour Blessings are welcomed.

Vindication:

Gives the Paladin's damaging attacks a chance to reduce physical damage done by the target by 10% for 10 sec.

The current Vindication reduces Boss Physical damage by about 10-15% already, and the AP debuff was inconsistent with other AP using classes- This change should help to even the board (without reducing Magical damage dealt by Deathknights, Paladins, or Shamans in the process).

Judgement of Light:

Unleashes the energy of a Seal spell to judge an enemy for 20 sec, granting attacks made against the judged enemy a chance of healing the attacker for 1% of their maximum health.

A slight healing nerf- To be expected with scaled HP pools.

Swift Retribution

Your auras also increase your party and raid's melee and ranged haste by [7%/14%/20%].

More Buff homogenization for 10 man groups.

Crusader Strike:

An instant strike that causes 100% weapon damage. 5% of base mana, 5 yd range, Instant cast, 4 sec cooldown

Crusader Strike damage is increases across the board (this is the baseline version), however still no secondary effect keeps it as a boring 2nd auto attack.

As a whole, I would say that the Paladin class is mostly "incomplete" with it's changes. Hopefully this means news will be out soon!

Until then

~Ron

3.3.5 Releases Today

2010-06-23T01:17:00.000-05:00

Patch 3.3.5 was released earlier on Live servers today.

No new Ret news, but please know this:

Sharpened Twilight Scale, while a Melee DPS trinket and is BiS for us, is MUCH more beneficial in the hands of a Warrior, Deathknight, Rogue, Druid, or Hunter! PuGs, you have been warned!

Peace.

~Ron

More Blues, E3 tomorrow

2010-06-14T11:53:00.000-05:00

A couple of interesting Blue posts have been popping up. While not directed toward the paladin class, we can infer some things from them.

Mental Quickness is something Enhancement and Retribution need in order to be a mana-using spec without mana on gear. In general you won't see stat conversion talents, though warriors and DKs might keep their armor conversions. We'll see.

It looks like we won't be seeing an increased mana pool any time soon. Depending on how specific mechanics work (see JotW absorbs, Mana-drain effects like in Dreamwalker) this could cause an issue later down the road.

We may need additional mana restore mechanics than we have now for Enhancement, but that will take some more testing.

Arguably, Shamans have better mana-resoting mechanics than we do; Alongside point one, we might see something else as well.

There are going to be some hard choices in all the trees. It's not our design intent that you scoop up every single talent in your tree.

Protection and Holy might have some more "interesting" talents in them at some point.

The Whirlwind caused by Bladestorm is a different spell effect. We can adjust it independently.

Could mean that Divine Storm is similar, in a way that it is also a different mechanic.

If you find a build that avoids 51 points in one tree but picks up something really awesome instead, you will still be fully functional.

Most classes have baseline abilities to handle not having additional abilities- A Warlock without Shadowfury or a Warrior without Titan's Grip still have the tools they need to DPS. A Priest can heal fine without Guardian Angel. However, I'm sure that a Paladin tank would be in trouble of being viable without Holy Shield or Hammer of the Righteous, or a DPS without Crusader Strike or Divine Storm (currently).

Hopefully this leads to an expansion of our talented abilities into baseline abilities (like they are already doing with Crusader Strike and Holy Shock).

The Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) also begins tomorrow- Hopefully this will lead to more Alpha (or even Beta!) information on Cataclysm.

~Ron

Beta Release? Soon (TM)

2010-06-08T00:43:00.000-05:00

As the contests for Guild entrys and other Beta-related events going up (and with E3 right around the corner on June 14th), its VERY likely we'll see a new Beta version pushed out! I can say for us all that I'm very excited about this change, and hope to have some fresh info about the class.

Grab your popcorn, and hang on lady, we going for a ride!

~Ron

Not so Divine anymore

2010-05-25T13:23:00.003-05:00

An interesting Blue post popped up today, regarding Divine Storm as the 51 Ret talent:

The current plan is for Crusader Strike to be baseline, but for Ret to have talents that add to it, and for Divine Storm to be the 51-point talent.

I am also surprised at the notion that some of you only AE on trash. :)

What their [Blizzard's] intention with this ability is somewhat unknown right now. If Divine Storm is only to used for AE purposes, does that mean we'll never see it used for PvE boss encounters or in a 1v1 in PvP? Of course, this could be part of their elaborate scheme to "Make Retribution harder to play" by having an ability X place a debuff which increases Divine Storm damage on that target by Y amount. Who knows at this point in time.

~Ron

It Goes to 20%!

2010-05-25T12:18:00.005-05:00

The ICC buff has increased to 20%. What does this mean? Well, more facerolling of Arthas and his Goon Squad.

Just wait until Marrowgar hears this- Maybe then he'll stop Brostormin' and we can just Crusader Poke him in the face once and be down with the simple encounter.

~Ron

ICC and beyond

2010-05-19T00:49:00.004-05:00

Big update since my last post.

Since then, I have:

Faction changed to Horde (I have a thing against different-sex gendered characters as my main...)
Joined Squirrel Legion (those bunch of Nut cases!)
Downed 11 of the 12 bosses in 25 man on Normal mode (Damn Valks for Lich King!)
Collected my 1,000 souls (I had to pay Kessy somehow so she would keep healing me)
Completed Unholy Infusion (Piece of Cake. Seriously, it was chocolate)
Completed Blood Infusion (Robert Pattinson, your a bad vampire, and imma not let you finish, bitch!)
Been promoted to an Officer in Squirrel Legion (Lead Tactician, i.e. "Stand in the Fires, they give you Mana!")
Completed Frost infusion (I never wanna hear "Frost Breath" again)
Started Collecting Shadowfrost shards, up to 2/50 (SHINES!)

We're pushing content, and pushing hard. I've made a bunch of new friends, and enjoy raiding again. Chances are high that I'll see my first Legendary item, and that Arthas will lay dead soon!

Oh, and lets not forget about the Cataclysm Beta Opt-ins! I'm looking forward to my ticket, Mr. Wonka....

Expect more updates..... whenever I may feel up to it. :)

~Ron

New Ties, New Beginnings

2010-03-28T15:10:00.005-05:00

Its been a while since my last post again, but things are starting to look really good. I've been busy with a lot of personal stuff at the beginning of February, but no one cares about any of that stuff.

After the dismissal of my old guild, I had to fill out many guild apps to find a new raiding guild- After checking all of the high-end Alliance guilds, I made a desperate move and changed over to the Horde side (on the same server!) and joined Squirrel Legion- outside of seeing them in Dalaran or around Azeroth and Outland back in TBC, I didnt know much about them or about any of the guild members. I do feel like I fit into the guild, as a lot of their personalities do match my own- They're fun to joke around with, yet serious when it comes to raid progression- Something my old guild lacked a lot of.

The good news is that my "Trial period" was finished last Thursday, but since we lacked the numbers to raid that night I'll hopefully be promoted to a full member later tonight. However, we are in the slump that my old guild suffered from- Lack of signups. However, there is promise as whispers of merging with another guild are very possible.

On a positive note, I am half-way on collecting my 1,000 souls and as it turns out, Im probably am going to be second in line for the Infusion quests and, ultimately, collecting Shards for the Legendary- I can't wait!

~Ron

No Drama Drama

2010-02-04T11:26:00.003-06:00

The past week has brought a few exciting things, and some sad things as well. First, the good stuff (so I can build your confidence and fill you with joy and then chop you from your body with the bad news later). Our 10 man team finally got the Firefighter achievement, meaning that I am one step closer to obtaining the 10 man Ulduar drake. The fight was quite complicated, and after going through it I have a new respect for guilds that have done this hard mode on 25 man.

Unfortunately, thats all the good news I have really. The other day I happened to log in to notice that I was unguilded: Our guild master had a furious breakdown and disbanded the guild, due to our poor attendance and lack of enthusiasm for our 25 man raid progression. While it is unforunate that the guild was destroyed (literally, the guild tabs and everything are gone), I will still keep in touch with my guild mates, just like I have with those with the ex-Shadow Wolves and the ex-Azure Knights members.

I have since been looking for a new guild: Hopefully, the search will end successfully and I will have a new home, to have fun and make new friends.

~Ron

3rd server, baby

2010-01-24T18:15:00.002-06:00

Went in for the new bosses of ICC on 10 man, and I have to say, both fights were pretty fun. Although both were annoying due to the ramp-up issues with Ret, I really enjoyed the chaotic-ness of the Prince fight. Its cool to go and kill people we have already killed before, although the Kael'thas reference is older and more annoying than the Dramatic Squirrel from Youtube.

The Blood Queen fight was also entertaining, although (again due to ramp up time issues) my DPS was low. I can't wait to get to do this fight in 25 man for when I have to be hit by Blood Mirror for the Shadowmourne quest: I think the strat will be the same as the others, and to use Divine Shield to take 50% less damage, as well as maybe do it while being a Vampire for the extra self-healing.

And just to brag, we found out later that night that we were the 3rd 10 man group on our server to conquer the Crimson Halls, behind Singularity and Drow (both top-end Alliance guilds).

Can't wait for our 25 man team to catch up progression-wise to our 10 man team. Once we move some people around, hopefully we'll be in a good spot.

~Ron

Where I have been

2010-01-12T17:04:00.002-06:00

This past month has been rather busy for myself. Between the holidays, Finals,
picking up extra work hours, and Sorting out financials, I've been quite busy.

Our guild is quickly progressing through the Gated ICC, in both 10 and 25 man. We're working on Prof. Putricide in 10 man and Festergut currently in 25 man. Given the attempts made on Festergut the other night, I feel a kill is very close and we could see his flesh bag lying on the floor soon- Just in time for me to acquire his blood for The Sacred and the Corrupt- Although I do still need 14 more Primordial Saronites, and when each one is valued at 2,300-2,500 gold, it could be a while.

We'll have to see how things play out. Hopefully I'll also have my 2pc T10 soon, and should start to see 24,000 DPS on trash :)

~Ron

Hardmode Mania!!!! (And 3.3)

2009-12-08T17:50:00.002-06:00

And you thought that a Tribute to Insanity was our last stop until ICC? Our 10 man team continues to steamroll the hardest available 10 man content, by one-shotting all the hardmodes in Ulduar 10 man needed for the Proto-Drake, outside of Firefighter and the General/Yogg ones. We also skipped Iron Dwarf, Medium Rare for the time being since it was quite "time consuming" compared to knocking out the other ones.

Also, 3.3 hit live servers today. Nothing much changes in the Ret PvE depot, except for patching issues that are preventing me from even getting to the log-on screen- Looks like another "uninstall/install WoW entirely" night.

~Ron

Preparing for 3.3, Part 2

2009-12-02T11:25:00.005-06:00

Well it is evident that 3.3 is due up on servers by December 8th, 2009. In this patch we see only a few Paladin changes:

Divine Intervention: This ability now also removes Exhaustion or Sated from a target if the recipient is out of combat when the effect ends. In addition, the cooldown on this ability has been reduced from 20 minutes to 10 minutes. Cannot be used in Arenas.
Flash of Light: This spell no longer causes a heal-over-time effect unless the player has the Infusion of Light talent.
Lay on Hands: This ability will place Forbearance on the paladin if used on his or herself. It will not place Forbearance on others.
Talents
- Holy
  - Aura Mastery: This effect of this talent has been reduced in duration to 6 seconds.
- Protection
  - Divine Guardian: This talent no longer increases the amount of damage transferred to the paladin from Divine Sacrifice. Instead it causes all raid and party members to take 10/20% reduced damage while Divine Sacrifice is active. In addition, the duration has been changed to 6 seconds, however the effect does not terminate when Divine Sacrifice is removed before its full duration.
  - Divine Sacrifice: Redesigned. The effect of Divine Sacrifice is now party-only and the maximum damage which can be transferred is now limited to 40% of the paladin’s health multiplied by the number of party members. In addition, the bug which allowed Divine Sacrifice to sometimes persist despite reaching its maximum damage has been fixed. Divine Sacrifice will now cancel as soon as its maximum damage value is exceeded in all cases. Finally, Damage which reduces the paladin’s health below 20% now cancels the effect early.
- Retribution
  - Repentance: This crowd control effect will no longer break early from the damage done by Righteous Vengeance.

The change to RV is nice, since I could actually pick up RV should I ever go back to Ret PvP (since Prot PvP is better nowadays). The big changes, however, are in Divine Sacrifice and Aura Mastery.

Aura Mastery recieved a slight nerf, however I might considering picking it up- The problem is, I am the only one who (besides the Warrior) can toss up Imp Demo shout, and at no cost to boot. The Divine Sacrifice changes would mean that I can could use it every 2 minutes without having to kill myself in the process. However, with the way our Trees are set up, there is no way I can afford to get Divine Guardian without sacrificing personal DPS.

All in all, my spec will probably not chance. Looking at the content for 3.3, I hope to have a Quel’Delar/Shadow's Edge soon. :)

~Ron

Insanely Skilled

2009-12-01T16:28:00.003-06:00

With our cleanup from the previous week, we knew that A Tribute to Insanity was just a week away. On November 29, we managed to takes some names and kick ass with our Server's 13th Anub kill with 50 attempts remaining. Although I did not snag any personal loot, it is still a grand achievement to obtain, and shows just what we are capable with when we focus and work coherently.

Now we just need to repeat this so I can snag my cloak :P

~Ron

Preparing for 3.3, Part 1

2009-11-27T22:29:00.004-06:00

So we all know that 3.3 is due in either this Tuesday or within the next 21 days. So today, I decided to start preparing for 3.3

First and foremost, Transmute: Titanium is loosing its cooldown. This can mean either:

A drop in Titanium/Titansteel Bars, in which case I need less money for Titansteel cooldowns and gear for Alts
A rise in Saronite Ore/Bars, of which I already 200+ of each to re-sell.

Outside of that, the only other preparation I have done besides PTR work is.... well, nothing. :)

I did accomplish somethings, though, including soloing
Thrym, The Hope Ender:

As well as doing over 1,000,000 damage in a battleground:

Until next time!

~Ron

BiS make my Tenticles Wiggle

2009-11-25T14:16:00.003-06:00

Had a wonderful loot night from TotC 25! Last Tuesday, I was able to sweep house with my brand new Justicebringer (it took long enough) as well as the Executioner's Malice neckpiece. Finally, in the Onyxia run (which we somehow managed to wipe twice in?) I picked up a Judgement Crown to replace my helm from TotC 10 man.

In addition, I completed the achievements Chef de Cuisine, Mowed Down, and the requirements for the meta Pilgrim. All in all, I am getting closer to the Tabard of Conquest, which I hope to have within my grasp soon.

As always, here is the dataz.

~Ron

Mad Skills, baby!

2009-11-23T00:10:00.007-06:00

A Tribute to Mad Skill!
We came, we saw, and we kicked some ass! Out of our 50 attempts, we managed to get to Anub on Heroic TotGC 10 man with ALL of our attempts! We did have a bit of trouble, though, on Anub himself- However, I see that fight as being so needy and tedious that there are many factors that can go wrong.

With downing Anub with 47/50 attempts remaining, I can honestly say that we are setting the bar higher for next week to obtain some new cloaks.

Composition for tonight's raid is as follows:

Tanks:
Eibrocan
Vires

DPS:
Ronark
Remmanak
Minicthur
Jam
Toranch

Healers:
Sondog
Moonsinnah
Chuckmurloc

As always, the data can be found here.

And as a side Victory, I'm past 7000 achievement points (yay)!

Until next time,

~Ron

New week, New loots

2009-11-18T14:00:00.002-06:00

Tuesday came and went. Had Justicebringer drop from Faction Champs, but a DK guildie had priority over me. Good news is, that the next weapon that drops I have overall priority over.

Here is the data for the run.

Was also able to get some quick PvP action in and snag both Isle of Conquest All-Star and Demolition Derby (IoC).

Finally, I bought my Pony for my Squire. Hopefully it will make farming things easier in the future.

~Ron

Is it Tuesday yet?

2009-11-16T23:06:00.004-06:00

Restarts are tomorrow, so a quick recap of what my guild's been doing:

- Still on NRB for TotGC : /
- Downed TotCG 10 man with 22 attempts remaining
- Still waiting for that sword from Onyxia :P
- Yogg practice on Ulda 25 man. Here is the data.

~Ron

Tier 11 (or 12) ideas.

2009-11-14T19:02:00.002-06:00

I got around to drawing up some rough sketches of my vision of future tier gear, as well as 2 weapons that I would like to see in Cataclysm. The link to the post with the pictures can be found below:

Here

I hope to have them modeled in Autodesk Maya soon, but that takes a considerable amount of time to do.

~Ron
