    You're wasting your time; they'll just vote kick you for being a 'bad healer.'

    My favorite part about the suit is the one tendril thinger that doesn't match the others at all.

    I just rolled up a DK to play frost spec for the first time since WotLK launched. Gonna see if I like it now.

    Has the rotation for endgame DK been improved? I tried it out on my guy but it just didn't cut it. I was under DPSing most of the time.

    And then Unholy happened.

    I wouldn't know, because I got bored of my DK in Outland as frost spec.

    DKs are actually among my least favorite classes. I was on board with them at first, but then I realized how much cooler shaman and warriors are.

    Yeah, Warriors are pretty ballin'

    And as a Tank I usually wait for the healers to get mana back when they are at 1/4th of the bar. Unless it's a simple pull that I know we can handle. (Stuns are amazing)

    They can, but it is exceptionally brutal and unforgiving. When my guild started out with a few guys who were mostly just barely geared enough for it, we died a lot. Butt the new mechanics were just so fun and interesting it was worth it to figure out how to make it work.

    Heroic Atramedes should be easy as fuck. The only real difference in the fight is the 250k hp adds, which in Cata is nothing. It really just requires your raid members to play smarter than regular, not harder.

    We actually used to wipe more on Normal Atra vs Heroic since we went from the [run amok] strat to [alternate between two camps in an organized manner].

    Also, totally random on Chim; A Hunter pet can intervene the first Double Strike during the feud phase, quite handy if you don't have Paladins for LoH. We've always used 2 1/2 tanks on 25 for him, 2 real tanks for Double Strike and a Frost DK or Ret Pally main tank.

    Yeah, the air phase is really stupid easy if you do it right. We set a strat of "Pre fight, pick a spot. That's your spot." The idea is wait for a modulation blast to hit your spot. Slliiiiddeeee to the left. Wait. Modulation Blast. Slllliiiiddeee to the right...

    We avoided heroic atramades at first... our normal kills were sloppy and doing it in heroic mode surely must be harder!

    After a few kills Heroic Atramedes has wiped us less than any boss in the entire tier except maybe normal mode ODS.

    New holy priest four piece set is nice. RIP 75 second cooldown reduction on shadow fiend for holy priests though ;)

    That shaman model is bad. The warlock one isn't terrible, it just isn't anything to write home about.

    Paladin seems to be the best so far but druid could be cool. Priest is pretty good as always.

    Warrior reminds me of Emperor Zurg from Toy Story 2.

    From the mmo champ forums:
    Spiderlock, Spiderlock,
    Does whatever a Spiderlock can
    Shoots some fire, any size,
    Catches imps just like flies
    Look Out!
    Here comes the Spiderlock.

    Is he strong?
    Listen bud,
    He's got voidwalker blood.
    Can dot stuff up and spread?
    Take a look, flying bogies overhead
    Hey, there
    There goes the Spiderlock.

    In the thill of night
    At the scene of a raid
    Like a streak of fire
    He casts just in time.

    Spiderlock, Spiderlock
    Friendly neighborhood Spiderlock
    Dots and flames
    He's ignited
    PHAT PURPZ is his reward.

    To him, life is a great big summoning stone
    Whenever there's a meet up
    You'll find the Spiderlock.

    My 30 second review of the T12 armors:

    Druid: This is what it would look like if troll armor design mated with a radioactive treestump and had offspring.

    Warlocks: The next Spiderman costume design...if he were starring in Lord of the Rings.

    Shaman: This just in! Fire still hot! You did keep The Fire Extinguisher right? http://www.wowhead.com/item=41755

    Paladins: We forgot the armor. Have some nice looking pajamas instead.

    Warriors: The helm nicely portrays my feelings of rage. See? This is my angry face! So angry! At least it's not pajamas.

    Mages: You're on fire! Ok actually the shaman are on fire. The phoenix motif will have to suffice. I know! Feathers on a non-druid armor set! Crazy stuff.

    Death Knights: I'm Batman.

    Rogues: Congrats on your Ravenholdt themed armor. No, we couldn't come up with anything better.

    Priests: Shut up. I am NOT wearing a toilet bowl on my head.

    Death Knights: I'm Batman.

    Hunters: No one cares! Oh by the way, Nick Fury, agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. at your service.

    Yeah, it's really not that bad at all. Both my Shaman and Mage have pugged their way from 346 ->353+. To be honest, I've had much worse luck in groups with raid geared players since they expect to steamroll everything, where the bluer groups use cc and such.

    Not a fan, myself. The fire's a gimme; like I said, Org's gonna be a dangerous place come 4.2. The rest has the T1 vibe, but the colors are dull in comparison. Also, that helmet tells me that if I still played, my helmet graphic would be off for the next 4 months.

    Well, it's always off anyways. Blizzard sucks at hats.

    wat

    I dunno, from my perspective it seems like something you really have to try for. But I haven't PvP'd since vanilla so I dunno how the flow of combat goes in Arenas / BGs.

    ... Actually, that's a half-lie. I did PvP in TBC when Quel'Danas was a thing, but that wasn't necessarily by choice (not that I hated it).
