Hate: That Blizzard managed to fuck up what could've been a fantastic daily quest in Thrusting Hodir's Spear. As far as I can tell, attempting to do it properly leads only to your own death.
Unless it's bugged it shouldn't.
It's a two phase fight. The first phase is the thrust, grip, dodge, mega thrust portion, and this one you can get dropped and die from falling damage on.
The second phase is "open jaws" and "fatal thrust." If you succeed at this portion you ride the corpse down and shouldn't take any falling damage.
This is, of course, unless blizzard managed to break that portion of the quest.
Sad: Our other tank won the tanky mace off Marrowgar. However, that led to...
HAPPY: NEVERENDING WINTER!
Happy: I browbeat our DK into fitting Desecration back into his Unholy spec so that he could use his DK on Saurfang instead of switching to his Mage. It just so happened this week that Saurfang dropped Ramaladni's Blade of Culling.

My point was that if you actually spend time dodging the claws (and only mega thrust after a dodge) in the first part, you take too long to bring the wyrm's health down, and eventually you lose your grip so fast that you're forced off, no matter how high your health is. The proven (for me) method is to use the mega thrust whenever it's off cooldown, and alternate grip and thrust so that you do as much damage as possible without falling off. You end up doing damage quickly enough that you have enough time to build up 10-20 stacks of open jaws in the second phase.
Blizzard need to lower the rate that your grip's loosening speeds up, so that dodging claws and putting in effort reducing your damage taken is actually worthwhile.
That's pretty much how you do it cork, don't believe the strats on wowwiki, it's a great way to give yourself a repair bill. As long as you can dodge when you get clawed at, it doesn't really matter when you mega-impale.
However, Hate: putricide to 2% 3-4 times and we are missing it because some silly goose always manages to not move from maleable goo at the last second, dies, and bumps him up a few %.

It's been a while since I did it, but what I do is spam grip to around 90, spam normal attacks and then spam grip to keep it high, dodge when it attacks, and do the mega thrust right after it does it's own attack.
I also open up right away with a mega thrust after it picks me up since it's not likely to attack right away.
I bought 800 Relics of Ulduar from the AH for 200 gold so that I never had to do that quest. I think my strategy was the best.
If you are drowning in Triumph badges, you can purchase Sons of Hodir Commendations. I believe it took me about 40-ish to hit Exalted. Much easier IMO.

Wait, I missed this, how is Putricide going up in health? That should only be happening if one of the tanks die or somebody cleanses the disease from them.

Hmmm, I'm not sure how his health went up though. None of the tanks died or reached more than 5 stacks?

I've only done this quest once, but I had no trouble doing it the "normal" way, with dodging the claws. The wyrm got me to 5% health but that's only because I managed to miss the killing blow like five times even with a 70%+ chance to hit. I think I entered phase 2 with about 90% health.
The 10 relics of ulduar turn-in gives 650 rep now instead of the 250 it used to, so that route is incredibly fast and cheap (at least on my server a stack of 200 relics was only 40g). Since they made the shoulder enchants BOA, reduced the amounts of relics needed to go to exalted, and added the triumph badge rep item it has driven the demand and price down on the relics to dirt cheap.

Log on my shaman for the daily and get H PoS. Check out everyone's gear and it looks pretty good. So we get rolling and the druid tank starts chain pulling. I'm ok with this except they start pulling the the next mobs when the ones we are on are still at 75% health. This leads me to...
Hate: Forgemaster Garfrost not dropping sarronite, I think someone bugged it by being on the steps. I kept everyone alive though.
Hate: I sit down to drink and the tank runs off and continues to chain pull with no healer. I try to get to him, but he keeps running away from me. We wipe and run back.
Some dps die on Ick and he starts in on how bad they are. Then he starts in on me for being a bad healer. The dps whisper me to see if we should kick him, but at this point I just wanted to get it done. Well we didn't have to kick him because he DC'd.
Happy: The tank that came in had less than 30k hp and I was able to keep him up without a hitch. He even let himself get beat down when Tyrannus goes crazy. I'm not sure how the tank got in there, I guess if off set was amazing, because his tank gear was crap.

The forgemaster drops sarronite? or is the quest chain for the hilt?
I thought you were talking about my tank since I got into a pit group a few hours ago where they made fun of my crappy sheild and lack of overall health
But then a hate was we continued on to the Hall and THE SHAMAN ROLLS AND WINS THE SHEILD
the words that rolled forth from my mouth at that momment would make a sailor blush

The gear requirements for the ICC heroics are incredibly loose. My warrior tank ended up in a HHoR while he was still in only 2pT9 and while he was still wearing the tanking trinket from the HFP quest.
Unhappy: GS nonsense makes getting in Vault pugs really obnoxious. I'm tired of running heroics and not raiding so I've lost interest in the game. Guess I'll wait for the expac.
Just quit for pretty much the same reason also. I have no interest in playing a video game on a schedule at this point in my life so no interest in joining a guild, and unfortunately my chars are mostly on Korgath where D&T used to be so everyone's a wannabe that thinks they're the hottest shit ever (despite most being pretty bad).
Had my 6.5k dps rogue turned down from vault and then my 36.5k unbuffed warrior tank turned down as well. At that point everyone can choke on a dick because I get tired of people thinking you need to be in full 264 gear to drop PvP trash bosses.
I always quit WoW because I remember it's not the game I hate, it's the people playing it.
edit.. I should point out I don't hate GS, I hate people who use it to keep people out who might actually need more than one piece of gear from a raid. PUGs on Korgath = "LFM for ToC25 DV reserved, 5.2kgs+achieve" and "LFM ICC10 5.5k gs+achieve". Give me a break.
It's absolutely ridiculous. I see the same kinda silliness from pugs advertising in trade. They're asking for people with a GS high enough to not need anything out of the place or else don't seem to realize that anyone with a GS that high that's interested in doing ICC....already is! With their guild. I like checking their GS/Achievements in return. Half the time they don't meet their own requirements and I love calling them out on it.
I got some dude asking for ToC25 "with achieve only".
The motherfucker didn't even have Naxx. So I called him out on it.
"LFM ToC25"
No more achievement needed!
10 minutes later "LFM ToC 25 have achieve."
"I'm still in trade."
And he went quiet for another 10 minutes.
HAPPY: Valithria 25 dow... er, up. We just suddenly gelled and everyone nailed their roles. On top of that, Putricide-10 first guild kill (and that's a oneshot for me, although other tanks have tried before) and Sindragosa-10 eventually down (Frost res so no tank swaps, but my word it was scary towards the end.)
Edit: Incidentally, one of the attempts on Valithria she lost a *ton* of health, I suddenly looked over at her and she was on about 30%. Since we're nowhere near Heroic, what could have caused that?
HOPE: We get some time on LK. We had a few punts at him, he's a fun fight, but I'm currently trying to work out if I should be championing or poo-pooing the people who say that we should be DPSing the big adds in P1. Can the disease do all the work for us?
HATE: And now I have copious free time to do all the research I need... due to being made redundant. Woohoo. More realistically, time to start the toil to find a new job.

Re: Dreamwalker: My guess is the aboms were spraying her and she wasn't being cleansed and/or the blistering zombies were blowing up right on top of her. Of course it could also have been a bad series of blazing skeletons.
The disease should be doing the work for you on LK, in our attempts we normally get 2-3 big guys and just let the disease do it's job. If you find yourself in the position of having to DPS the big guys something went horribly wrong.

Whatever he drops that you hide behind so you don't take 3000 stacks of his aoe, he didn't drop the first one so we were all up to 20 stacks or so.
I didn't make fun of the guy, he asked how he was doing and I told him he was doing fine, even though his HP was low, if I couldn't keep him up I shouldn't have been there either.
Hate: A Good night gone real bad last night. We blast our way through to Festergut in short order then slam to halt on Rotface. I got pretty heated with the RL since he was the Ooze kiter and had some incorrect notions about how to manage those slimes. He's been solid up until this point but honestly he's getting really big on berating the group for its lack of coordination. Lots of the group was getting tired of it, especially since the majority of the fuck ups were on his part for that fight. Him and this silly goose of a hunter seemed to think you had to avoid the slime pools instead of bracing yourself and charing through. Me, my roommate, and his gf are all thinking about apping to another raiding Guild since this is starting to get painful.
Hope: I can talk some sense into the RL and get him to calm the fuck down about this shit.
Yeah, he would try to double back and just soak the hit from the big slime, or one time he tried to edge around the pool and gibbed two of our healers. Its frustrating because he's a pretty good raider, but when he believes he knows the way to do something its incredibly difficult to explain otherwise.
Wow. Getting near that slime for more than a fraction of a second is pretty insta-death. I made that mistake of trying that once (thanks other group trying to sabotage us, "Oh sorry our other tank had rocket boots.").

That's pretty much how you do it cork, don't believe the strats on wowwiki, it's a great way to give yourself a repair bill. As long as you can dodge when you get clawed at, it doesn't really matter when you mega-impale.
However, Hate: putricide to 2% 3-4 times and we are missing it because some silly goose always manages to not move from maleable goo at the last second, dies, and bumps him up a few %.
I have had the stupid drake die a few times in a place where when it falls down and you get ejected I fall to my death because the thing stops falling on the side of the cliffs above that smurf lady village.
happy: No new progress last night on 25, but in one night we got the first wing, festergut, rotface, and blood princes down. It took us till halfway through thursday night last week to get there.
Hate: no pally loot (or even much pve loot of use) from VoA.
Hate: A healing ring dropped from gunship which i've never seen, it went to a mage. A healing neck I've never seen dropped from Festergut, went to our healy priest. At least it was a decent upgrade for both of them and they both are good players.
Happy: I may not buy her flowers on valentines day, but I did spend almost 300 frost badges buying saronite for my wife so she could get her Shadow's Edge tonight. Let no one say I don't love her.
Hate: Today she saw her 4th hilt drop and won it (her 3rd.) I still have yet to see one drop.
Happy: she's gonna sell it and pay me back some saronite. Maybe I'll finally get those pally healy legs crafted.

Decide to try Dreamwalker, rather than Putricide or Princes, since it's supposed to be a pretty simple fight.

On my healer, I've had to wait for a tank again many times after a DPS declined. For how many times it has happened I would say it's a mix of tanks leaving, the beloved /ignore, and possibly some behind-the-scenes magic that isn't working as it's described.
If I were queuing up for DPS I'd sure as fuck wouldn't go afk short of losing my finger or something. That's just way too long of a wait to afk and have to do it again.

Hate: That Blizzard managed to fuck up what could've been a fantastic daily quest in Thrusting Hodir's Spear. As far as I can tell, attempting to do it properly leads only to your own death.
Unless it's bugged it shouldn't.
It's a two phase fight. The first phase is the thrust, grip, dodge, mega thrust portion, and this one you can get dropped and die from falling damage on.
The second phase is "open jaws" and "fatal thrust." If you succeed at this portion you ride the corpse down and shouldn't take any falling damage.

My point was that if you actually spend time dodging the claws (and only mega thrust after a dodge) in the first part, you take too long to bring the wyrm's health down, and eventually you lose your grip so fast that you're forced off, no matter how high your health is. The proven (for me) method is to use the mega thrust whenever it's off cooldown, and alternate grip and thrust so that you do as much damage as possible without falling off. You end up doing damage quickly enough that you have enough time to build up 10-20 stacks of open jaws in the second phase.
Blizzard need to lower the rate that your grip's loosening speeds up, so that dodging claws and putting in effort reducing your damage taken is actually worthwhile.
It's been a while since I've done that daily, but I've done it the "intended" way plenty of times.
If I were queuing up for DPS I'd sure as fuck wouldn't go afk short of losing my finger or something. That's just way too long of a wait to afk and have to do it again.
It's easy to forget you queued up at all when you're waiting 15 minutes. It's not like most people spend the entire wait just staring at their screen.

Hope: I can talk some sense into the RL and get him to calm the fuck down about this shit.
Queue up on my lock, get UK with a guild group from another server. I love that, because the chances of failure are so much lower.
Queue up on my paladin next, get HoR. "Shit!" It's a group from a raid guild on my server. "Awesome!"
Which means today I'll get nothing but geese.
I have had the stupid drake die a few times in a place where when it falls down and you get ejected I fall to my death because the thing stops falling on the side of the cliffs above that smurf lady village.
Hate: no pally loot (or even much pve loot of use) from VoA.
Hate: A healing ring dropped from gunship which i've never seen, it went to a mage. A healing neck I've never seen dropped from Festergut, went to our healy priest. At least it was a decent upgrade for both of them and they both are good players.
Happy: I may not buy her flowers on valentines day, but I did spend almost 300 frost badges buying saronite for my wife so she could get her Shadow's Edge tonight. Let no one say I don't love her.
Hate: Today she saw her 4th hilt drop and won it (her 3rd.) I still have yet to see one drop.
Happy: she's gonna sell it and pay me back some saronite. Maybe I'll finally get those pally healy legs crafted.
I'd never realized how much I'd love being a druid till this happened. Much less dying.

You've meet my raiders then?
I am a freaking nerd.
Entertained: Me and another tank both queue together alot and both always queue as Tank/Dps then mercilessly mock the one stuck tanking.
Sounds like most of the crew I run with too.
could = will
It's been a while since I've done that daily, but I've done it the "intended" way plenty of times.
It's easy to forget you queued up at all when you're waiting 15 minutes. It's not like most people spend the entire wait just staring at their screen.
:? You all don't run around Dalaran in circles for hours?
