    The lack of CC I understand because people are lazy but not SS the healer? That is just a bad player.

    I had this happen to me my first time healing heroic GB. I was stopping for mana every other pull, popping shadowfiend every time it was up, and people were still nearly dying. The tank only mocked me when I repeatedly requested cc. The dps were more than willing to do the cc, but before I could mark anything the tank would just charge in and if anything got cc'd he'd break it.

    That reminded me to see when rank 23 would be possible since that's when the daily cap goes away, meaning rank 25 would be that day or the next day. April 4th is the day hundreds of guilds will poopsock so as to get to rank 25 first.

    It pisses me off that guild xp cap bugs set my guild backs weeks from the max level. Everyone was very active when the bug was still occurring, now most only log in for raids twice a week (myself included for the most part). We'd be several levels higher had our cap actually been resetting.

    One that wouldn't be getting healed on the next pull(after whispering the dps to stand back and do nothing).

    I had a tank do this to me in Lost City. The group was myself as a resto shaman, a rogue from my guild, a pug mage / lock / warrior tank.

    The warrior tank just charged and thunderclapped every group. The rogue from my guild would sprint ahead to try sap in time, but rarely got a chance. I threw out hex's but they would break pretty quickly, so I saved it more for when an add went loose.

    The mage and lock didn't bother.

    I asked, if it would be possible for people to cc stuff, but I got zero replies.

    My gear is ok; not amazing or anything, mostly 346 but with a few 333. It's not like this run went quicker; if anything, it went slower because the group had to wait for me to drink after every second pull.

    Wiped once on the 2nd to last boss, at which point the warlock (not a great loss, poor dps, didn't give out Healthstones, didn't SS me) faked a dc. Warrior didn't run back after the wipe (I'd used my ank on the croc boss), which only added to how much of a goose he was.

    Happy: No raid last night so we worked on the heroic 5 man achievements. Cleared out all of the Heroic DM achievements and all but one of the heroic BRC achievements (too bad hunter pets count for that stupid achievement off the last guy). It's funny how using a shaman can cheat the Vigorous Vancleef Vindicator achievement :P

    Particularly over by Rustberg docks. I can get through half a water walking potion just fishing around there.

    Except for Tank. He can be a bit of a pest.

    I'm feeling some vindication about having hoarded *all* my water walking potions from right back when I used to do the TBC fishing dailies on a regular basis. I've got tons. Even more of the sharpened hooks, but it's somewhat harder to find a use for them when I have the magic fishing hat.

    You'd be hard pressed to convince any of us to go back. That fight is way too RNG for me. Plus those tornadoes seem to pick you up even if you're out of the way, just 'cause they know you hate that fight.

    Ah - I thought there was more too it than that.

    My wife plays an Ice Mage, and really likes blowing stuff up (er, I guess I meant "freezing it and shattering it," or something). She has an unfortunate tendency to cone-of-cold things just as they die, however. :D

    Yeah, I hate that mobs dying to a knockback means you can't loot bug that came with 4.0.6. It worked fine before, I wonder what they did to break it. What I usually do is try to move far enough away such that the corpse will reload from the sever when I return. If that doesn't work and I really want the loot for whatever reason, I relog.

    Is that what's happening? I'd seen a few corpses that I was "too far away" from but didn't realize what was going on.

    Would /reloadui or whatever the command is fix it?

    What the issue is amounts to the server setting the corpse position right where the mob died. So if you kill with a knockback, the server-body is on the ground where it was standing before the knockback and the client-body is where it ends up after the knockback (likewise, if you knockback and it dies in midair to a dot or something, the corpse ends up on the ground right below where it was in its movement arc). The only way to fix it is to force your client to request data from the server by relogging or moving far enough away so that the area is moved out of memory, a reloadui won't do it. When using the lootarang to get around the issue, to the server it looks like you're using it to loot something you're right next to even though you're using it on something that looks far away to you.
