Tanking stuff when you were underlevel for it was probably the most fun I had when I used to play WoW, PvE wise.

Holy CRAP:
Since duroquinone possesses four cones, each molecule essentially has four different settings. Since the central molecule can simultaneously control 16 other duroquinones, mathematically this means a single pulse at the machine can have 4^16 - or nearly 4.3 billion - different outcomes.
In comparison, a normal computer transistor can only carry out just one instruction at once, and only has two settings - 0 and 1. This means a single pulse at it can only have two different outcomes.
Bandyopadhyay added they could expand their device from a two-dimensional ring of 16 duroquinones around the center to a three-dimensional sphere of 1,024 duroquinones. This means it could perform 1,024 instructions at once, for 4^1024 different outcomes - a number larger than a 1 with 1,000 zeroes after it. They would control the molecule at the center of the sphere by manipulating "handles" sticking out from the core.
Because I despise nerd culture for ruining the hobbies I enjoy.
My warrior hit 32 last night. I'm now high enough for SM runs.
Time for lunch!
Major respect for people who enjoy warrioring. I suck at aggro management.
Same to priests.
So many buttons.
Really? In my 20 levels of warrioring experience, it seems like warriors have more buttons than priests. I mean, they have 3 stances. I guess priests can get complicated if you try to mainheal as a shadow priest, but other than that, they're pretty straightforward.

Awesome. My dream of becoming an AI pscyhotherapist is one step closer.

Yes, but you're only ever going to really use one stance for whatever you're planning. And when you change stances the interface automatically changes to the buttons you've assigned to that stance.
Meanwhile priests have multiple ranks of different heals and no benecast to simplify it anymore.

Sure, but very few people use all the different ranks. The thing is, mana efficiency goes up with the rank, and so, unless you're partying with people way below your level, you generally want to use the highest rank and just time your heals to minimize overhealing. The only time I've ever needed non-highest level heals was when I was trying to do the stupid staff quest, because the peasants you're trying to keep alive have like 100HP.

People with appropriate Christmas spirit don't take down their decorations til July.
I'm still using my New Year's avatar. I like it, though, and it's not obnoxiously festive, so I think I might keep it around. At least until I find another image of Haruhi.
Actually, as a priest you use lower rank spells a lot in arena.
The priest on my arena team used to spam rank 1 shadow word pain on the opposite team, and their team kept wasting their time dispelling it, never realizing that it was rank 1.
Good times.

I use three different ranks of Greater Heal. It's good for keeping the tank at high health (To prevent disasters from burst damage) without torching your mana. Also, my mana regen while casting is about 50% and when main healing you're never out of the 5 second rule so it makes my mana go further to use a lower ranked heal. Also, my +Healing is almost 1700 while buffed, so there's that.

Well now I feel silly.
Veeeerrrry silly.
As well you should, n00b!
At the risk of someone coming out and telling me I'm a dumbass, because I'm somewhat oversimplifying, for healing you really just need 5 buttons: big heal, small heal, HoT, shield, and fade. If you want to DPS as non-shadowspec, you have at most 3 options: Smite, Holy Fire, and Holy Nova. Shadowspec has more buttons, particularly after TBC, and styles vary, but still not anywhere near the complexity of tanking and instance, where you have to maintain aggro on multiple targets, and watch for adds.

Dammit Inquisitor, you should be inquisitioning the tough questions.
Like, are black people old?

(you've got your stereotypes wrong) You're meant to excuse him of being a frat bro and everything that comes along with that.
Some.
Ah! That did the trick. Thanks Hacks.
Their archives didn't go back far enough, though.
Seriously, what was the thought process that went in to asking that? That can not be a real question.
Excuse or accuse?
It's always Ragnarok with you!
It's almost like you want Surt to engulf the world in flame.
So many buttons.
I kind of want that.

I thought self quoting was frowned upon on these forums though Preacher.
Yeah, me too.

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIL.
Fuck you too, [chat]ass.
You need three buttons: Intercept, Hamstring, Mortal Strike.
You then roll your face across the keyboard for maximum performance.
For me they allow it, like your mother.

Dammit, ege, you made me ROFL in class :P
And I'm pretty sure that's not the right way to maintank :P Or offtank. I guess it might be good for soloing.

I made this lasagna this weekend, and it is pretty darn good.
