    Hey, Hey Death Knights? don't go saying you're good to tank if you're not willing to spec into some talents that help with it and don't have any Tanking Gear. I'd be more then willing to taking you on a DPS slot.

    You know how you tried to tank heroic Violet Hold and the Naxx geared healer I brought couldn't keep you alive? that was your fault. we would've been more than Okay just having you throw dps at mob, so we would've known to look for a proper tank who can handle it.

    I mean, a little wiggle room is okay, but if said DK ninja'd cloth from clothies because of the damn misconception of "WELL DK'S NEED SPELLPOWER!" (No, they don't, Spellpower only effects god-damn Death Coil.) but really, this goes the same to Warriors and Pallies that roll on Leather, NEW RULE: If you are wearing a piece that isn't mail or better, PLEASE don't say "I'm good to tank guys seriously."

    Goddammit, my Dk is only 60 and I figured that shit out just looking at the damn gear from the starting zone, and looking at my abilities and talents.

    you don't step into a heroic without tank gear at the very least, and if your healer isn't overgeared, tank spec too.
    while im sure it can be done, its not what you do

    If I wanted to press 1 button and top meters I would have rolled a mage. The fact that Hunters had 2 specs completely annihilated and the the red-headed stepchild of the 3 becoming the new, and only, viable spec is stupid.

    FFFFFFF: People who don't know how to follow directions. We wiped about 4 times in under 10 seconds and 4 horsemen on 10man naxx. The resto druid that was supposed to tank bleamaux kept not standing in range. No matter how many times we explained.

    So I went and tanked her. We had a shaky battle, but in the end we one-shotted them. Thank god I tried out arcane tonight, with buffs and no resist gear I was at 270 shadow resist, blameaux was lucky to hit me for over 1500.

    I've attempted flat out removing all three of the folders (WTF/Cache/Interface), and found that the instant disconnection still happens. highly unlikely to be an addon issue. Currently running the repair tool. I've attempted logging on to characters in northrend, shattrath, and orgrimmar so I'm pretty sure it's not a "loading into crowded capital" issue. Thank you for the suggestion.

    Yes, but you said that you can't do competitive dps as a hunter, which is not true.
    If I wanted to press 1 button and top meters I would have rolled a mage. The fact that Hunters had 2 specs completely annihilated and the the red-headed stepchild of the 3 becoming the new, and only, viable spec is stupid.
    Two things: First yes, it does kinda suck that there is only one viable spec, but this is the case for other classes too (e.g. rogue, mage) Second, why does it matter if survival used to be bad?

    We finally finished that naxx10. We started at 7pm, ended at 2am. That's what we get for bringing new guildies and trying to help them get geared and learn the instance.

    At any rate, I upgraded from crappy blue shoulders to a pair of epic which I'm happy about. Finishing out the night gave me enough hero emblems to buy my trinket which also pleases me greatly.

    And above all, Arcane spec shined like a beacon, I had great dps all night.

    The basic test fight, Patchwerk, is my lovely proof:
    http://wowwebstats.com/13534dja2ymrw?s=137917-153291&m

    Also, I got the tanking sword from Gothik, because we had no warriors or pallies in the raid. It makes me look sexy.

    Happy: For the second night in a row, I did Naxx 25. It started as a pug and my guild sort of came in and saved it from itself. We'd only done 10-man before this.

    Hate: [Inevitable Defeat] dropped, and the resto druid got it. (in fairness, he specced resto just to run naxx for that mace, and we agreed he could roll on feral stuff. I just hate him for winning.)

    Hope: We cleared Arachnid and Plague with half the group being puggers. This gives me hope for our future guild runs as I know we'll be much better than that.

    Happy: Got the shoulders off Patchwork on Wednesday 10 man Naxx which were a pretty decent upgrade. I am torn between the ugly ass titansteel tanking helm since I am a blacksmith and the titansteel is just sitting in my bank but my blacksmithing still needs points or just waiting one more week to see if I get the Thanes or my tier 7 helm.

    Also my warlock dps went up in this patch, still need to find an immolate glyph. Just none on the AH and I get forgetting to ask the guild. In herioc VH on the core hound I broke 3k dps missing tons of buffs. Its nice to not be useless.

    Hate: Missed my second day of Naxx because I had real life stuff, Thane's helm did drop and I guess it went to a pug DK. Pretty shitty I would say. And still no repeling charge Thaddius, bastard needs to drop my trinket damn it. Also the tanking trinket drop in AN today but I was on my Warlock. Every time I am in there on my warrior the damn robes drop. Why must you taunt me rng! Why?!

    just need to make different rules/damage coefficients/whatever for Arena. Back when BGs were introduced they constantly said PvP isn't designed around 1v1. And now, with Arenas, the entire game is fucked with and modified for 1v1 and 2v2 so that the various Arena brackets are balanced.

    I really don't see how it would be difficult to make abilities work differently in PvE and PvP. Time consuming? Yes, maybe. But so called less successful MMO's do this so I'd say it's more Blizzard being fucking idiotic 'noobs' to the genre still.

    world pvp who cares. You're in the world. But if you are inside a BG or inside an Arena tada add some maths. Reduce dmg and healing by 25%, add higher diminishing returns on stuns/silences/snares etc. I don't know. Or if people like to see their pretty damage numbers, increase health by 25%.
