What a clusterfuck. After Dora DC'd, she won the roll from the second boss (probably lost the loot), it made her pass the second item, which you won the roll on but you were offline so I doubt you got it either. We looted the last boss, there was a ring and something else no one could use I don't think.
Pretty easy instance for dropping that many epics.
That was a regular instance, right? Not heroic?
We should just farm the absolute FUCK out of it tonight. It was quick and easy... I have a feeling they are going to make them blue drops or maybe 1 epic drop instead of 2 each boss... or make if much harder than it was last night. We knew nothing of the instance.. and we blew right through it.

It was regular. Heroic drops higher item level epics. Regular drops are only level 200. I don't think they will change it. They want people to catch up gearwise or to gear up alts.

I used an iPhone application that did the same thing... then I quit WoW while I moved and renovated my new house. It was a BITCH to get that account back since my authenticator wasn't helping.. so after about 3-4 emails with billing, I had to fax a copy of my ID along with a letter stating I was who I was and that I wanted my account turned back on. 4 days later, I got it.
Alot of people in my guild are starting to farm it too. Every few runs you can turn the stone shards --> honor --> epic gems too, their gonna nerf it I imagine its just to easy.

and just as an example, from the 5 man, for a tank, you can pick up a weapon, a trinket, head and shoulders (from heroic), a ring and neck (heroic), and feet, hands, waist, and legs. Then, two pieces of tier 8.5 from gear, one of which is chest, I believe. So you're missing a shield, another trinket, another ring, wrists......and that's it? Yep.

However, it took forever after they dismounted because a retard never took his lance off, which I didn't discover til we'd wiped on the second boss because the idiot DK forgot he was on heroic and pulled a second group of adds.
We come back, down the second boss and the DK fucking rolls on the tank helm and wins it. I bitch, he tells me that he only runs it for tank gear and to ask the other dk. Yeah, well perhaps you should have told me that before you got me saved to the instance you fucking retarded douchebag.

Nah and heres why, DKs routinely do over 10k dps on trash in 3.1 and no one gives a shit, reason : No one gives a shit what dps people do on trash. The only thing that changed is that there will be a few more hot streak procs and that wont bump mages dps high enough to bring down the nerf bat. Hell it wont even put us within 500 dps of rogues on patchwerk fights. Theres plenty of parses out there from the ptr showing rogues and feral druids still miles ahead of mages on single target dps. Although that always tends to even out as new gear is aquired because mages scale far better to stat increase then rogues and druids.
Hahaha. I was right. Nerfed less than 24 hours after the patch went live.

So far, they've only run AV.. and tokens are capped at 100. For great honor, you need a token from all 6 to turn in.
The concept for winning AV is pretty easy. All rogues/druids ride north then stealth across the bridge and cap the towers/first aid. Groups 1-5 kills Balinda, then backtrack and retake towers/GY outside Galv. Groups 6,7 and 8 are assigned a specific tower to destroy, then they all head to Vann and kill him, while 10 in groups 1-5 recall and defend base. Generally, the game lasts about 10-12 minutes and we get anywhere from 1700 to 2000 honor.
I suppose, I would just start queueing up solo for AB and Warsong and buying the mounts and tabards.

I feel sorry for people who only play WoW for the mini-accomplishments and are annoyed by things like having to delete old gear.
Maybe PB enjoys battlegrounds and thinkg having 800 resil will help him get S7 gear?
Maybe I'm bitter because my arena-friend is essentially quitting WoW because he doesn't feel like he's accomplishing anything new (we'll never get glad; gear is just a grind, etc). I'm pissed because I arena for fun -- the gear is an added bonus. Sure, it feels nice to upgrade gear. But mostly because that means I faceroll that much harder.
I really do feel bad for people who are psychologically addicted to a game they don't even play for fun. It's NOT about the grind. The grind is the shit you have to put up with for the fun of the game. That's my approach, at least.

We ran some WSG with the premades this morning. So much easier this way.
I guess they basically run whichever BG they have enough people for. WSG can be a pain in a pug.
I feel sorry for people who only play WoW for the mini-accomplishments and are annoyed by things like having to delete old gear.
Maybe PB enjoys battlegrounds and thinkg having 800 resil will help him get S7 gear?
Maybe I'm bitter because my arena-friend is essentially quitting WoW because he doesn't feel like he's accomplishing anything new (we'll never get glad; gear is just a grind, etc). I'm pissed because I arena for fun -- the gear is an added bonus. Sure, it feels nice to upgrade gear. But mostly because that means I faceroll that much harder.
I really do feel bad for people who are psychologically addicted to a game they don't even play for fun. It's NOT about the grind. The grind is the shit you have to put up with for the fun of the game. That's my approach, at least.
I like bgs....all of them. I deleted a full set of hateful myself and didnt mind. PB was just like I dont use marks for gay shit I only use it for things that give me solid gear upgrades....well seriously at this point in the season if thats your approach just stop trying. It will cost you the same amount of honor in two weeks to get a real gear set then its costing you right now to get outdated hateful shit that wont even give you a real chance in arena.
I like getting titles and mounts and achievements too so what. I play one character and I play the game to relax after work, if my arena partner isnt on and theres no raid I do achievements and I think its fun I dont get how thats any more a waste of time then grinding hateful gear and my point is at this junction(season 7 inc) its probarbly more of a waste of a time in the long run to buy the gear then just buy "gay mounts and tabards" at least you wont be deleting the mounts and tabards in a matter of days.

LOL 1000 res from hateful. Your a funny dude pb. Anyway think of me when your deleting all that shit in 3 weeks.
I don't get it.
Sorry.. I play the game because I enjoy playing the game. I'll never have the best pvp gear available because quite frankly, I don't have the time to put into it. I'll also never have the best pve gear for that same reason.
1000 resilience makes it less likely that someone will come over and 2-3 shot me with their gear.. it'll take 5-6 now. I'm fine with that.. as it's the only thing I was looking for.. a chance to have fun in BGs.
I'll continue to have fun in a guild with friends and improve my gear. I don't see how that's funny to you. This wasn't meant to be a "OMG MY GEAR R BETT3R THEN YOURS!", but it's clear that's what you've turned this into.
You might want to try having this discussion with Tamral.. since he's probably the only one besides you that takes a game like World of Warcraft so seriously.

No its that you wont get 1000 res from honor grinding hateful. You will get like 700 max with honor rewards right now and you will be able to get direct WG and honor upgrades in 8 days for the same amount your spending now for the lower tier gear.

I don't believe I've ever stated that my reason for increasing my pvp gear was so I could get a real chance in arena. I haven't played in an arena since level 70 was the cap.

Unless the tabard is useful, ie gives reputation during heroics, then it's used to do nothing more than make you look prettier. Hey, have at it Cupcake.. that's just not my style.
In 2 weeks, I'll not only have all the pvp gear I need, but I'll also have banked plenty of honor to purchase 2 pieces when S7 is released.
I think I'll be ok.

I think this is the part where you're missing it. I could be wrong, but I don't think he has a "final goal" - he just wants to play. Getting new gear increases his chances of living longer while he plays, but it's the battles and the squashing Alliance players (and mind-controlling them off the ledge at Naxx) that he enjoys. That sort of thing isn't a final goal - it's wasting time and relaxing.

It's not that difficult to understand:
I need resilience gear to play BGs, because I enjoy playing them. Currently, there are no rewards for 100 AV tokens, so yea, I guess I'm "counting" them. They sit in my currency tab and since there's a 100 cap in place, they will continue to sit there.
This all started with me saying we're doing AV premades, and you being wrong in saying you can do something with those tokens. I pointed out that you can't do shit with them, unless you do other BGs.
And since when is being emo and metrosexual a sign that you are a homosexual? If that was the case, Anticor would have been sucking dick years ago.

WTF?
I've been playing WoW since it was released. I'm pretty secure in knowing I enjoy the game. I currently have 3 level 80's... again, pretty secure in knowing I spend way too much time playing.
And the xRealm "Pay to play" is a donation of $5 for 2 months. I think I'll be ok. And a 10 minute game of someone telling 39 other people what to do is far more relaxing than a 20 minute grind of people going all over the place and not winning.

Youl be able to buy furious set gear with emblems from heroics and furious off set gear without an arena rating or with an absurdly low one (under 1300) for honor. So hateful and deadly will be pretty much tossed by most people except PB who will continue preforming for AV, buying hateful gear, actively avoiding mounts/tabards/achievements and looking down on anyone who thinks their cool.
BTW you are still wrong you can get a mount and a tabard for just AV emblems(60 and 40) while your inside AV. It is a reward for AV whether you choose to buy it or not.

Your priest doesnt have the achieve for frostwolf howler which is 50 emblems from AV, and its the only mount you get from AV alone. If you already have the other wolf that means you did exactly what I suggested and collected 30 emblems from AV, AB, WSG and got a vanity mount earlier.

Since im honor capped I would prolly get more bg mounts if I hit 30/30/30 again for whatever reason. Umm yah I will keep doing it.

If you consider this:
I couldn't give two shits about mounts or tabards... I only strive to get better gear or better skills. Let the emos and metrosexuals worry about how pretty they look on whatever mount they get.
The idea for me is to gain as much honor as I can as quickly as I can to get better resilience gear... and doing it by rolling over alliance makes it fun.
lashing out.. perhaps being online isn't the place for you. You took offense to this, and that's where your mistake started. It wasn't directed at you at all... it was my opinion.

I have a ton of epic gems in my bank from JC tips and using multiple prism cool downs as it is and they just dont sell in my experience, probarbly because its so easy to get them with honor heh.

Oh yah I mean what I was trying to convey was that I dont think its worth it to sell them. Like spend hours getting 10k honor and toss a gem up on the AH and get 100-200g for it. I guess its better than just losing it to the cap though.

I feel sorry for people who only play WoW for the mini-accomplishments and are annoyed by things like having to delete old gear.
Maybe PB enjoys battlegrounds and thinkg having 800 resil will help him get S7 gear?
Maybe I'm bitter because my arena-friend is essentially quitting WoW because he doesn't feel like he's accomplishing anything new (we'll never get glad; gear is just a grind, etc). I'm pissed because I arena for fun -- the gear is an added bonus. Sure, it feels nice to upgrade gear. But mostly because that means I faceroll that much harder.
I really do feel bad for people who are psychologically addicted to a game they don't even play for fun. It's NOT about the grind. The grind is the shit you have to put up with for the fun of the game. That's my approach, at least.
This.

No its that you wont get 1000 res from honor grinding hateful. You will get like 700 max with honor rewards right now and you will be able to get direct WG and honor upgrades in 8 days for the same amount your spending now for the lower tier gear.
If you add in trinkets and gems, I'm pretty sure you can get close to 1000 resilience in Hateful gear.
Nieninque
08-20-2009, 03:02 PM
I have over 800 on my druid without really thinking about it too much.
Every full set of hateful provides 240 resil. 290 with the set bonus and has 7 sockets and a meta.
wrist = 38
ring1 = 37
ring2 = 32
belt = 50
boot = 50
medallion of the horde for res = 84
cloak = 37
neck = 37
= 655.
With normal gemming and enchanting and assuming your going to equip a non-resil secondary trinket you will come to around 700-800 after gemming and enchanting. Most people will end up around 700-720 because gemming/enchanting straight resilience is pretty uncommon.

My DK in full hateful, no resilience enchants except the head/shoulders bought with Stone Keeper's Shards (+50 AP and +20 resil on head, +40 AP +15 resil on shoulders), and one resil trinket is sporting 742 resilience. 837 if I throw on a 2nd resilience trinket. Add in resilience enchants and gems and you can break 900 easily, possibly creeping up on 1000. 1k easily if for some reason you dominated in S5 and are still sporting your Hateful/Deadly weapons for whatever reason if you wanted to really stretch what's possible.

Yah I just dont think people gem resil, if you dont your gonna be about 700-800 which is normal for hateful, closer to 700 if you equip a pve trink which most people generally do in my experience. Those wg on demand attack power discs are nice though and I admit I forgot about them. If you want to go loony toons with yellow resil gems you could prolly hit 1000 I just dont think its a reasonable plan to actually do anything. I factored the set bonus in at the beginning btw it is in there.

I was pugging H-ToC with 4 of them, me healing. The terribad tank, who has two pieces of T8.5 conq, and then a bunch of heroic/ToC/naxx 10 epics, can't keep aggro on anything.
Three faction champions come out, the rogue, the shaman, the hunter. He marks the rogue LAST. I'm like, WTF, put hunter last. He doesn't like to go around "chasing her" so much, and I'm like, it doesn't matter, the rogue is more dangerous.
We do it his way. Everyone dies, he blames me. I point to the recount which shows me doing almost 3k HPS, and how the rogue killed everyone because it was FoK everyone, putting poisons on him when I can't poison cleanse, and people were standing in poison (all his retarded g-mates). On top of that, I pulled healing aggro off the hunter because he really doesn't know how to keep aggro on her while tanking the other two, despite the fact that he marked the hunter second.
Still, they blame me.
We come in, we do it my way, we win, tho some of the retard DPS had to run back in due to standing in poison. He's like, man, you don't know how to heal. I was like, your DK buddy over there keeps pulling aggro and I keep on having to heal her. He links the damage taken meter for the last fight, which shows the DK has taken 35% of the damage, and almost 80k damage, IN THE ONE BOSS ENCOUNTER. Then, he proceeds to tell me, that's not much damage, and I should be able to heal both him, who took over 200k damage, and her, in this fight. The fight lasts, what, maybe 90 seconds? That's over 3k HPS, which is a lot of healing, and that's just the two of them. And I tell them this, and the DK uses this as her counterargument: I put out more than 3K DPS, you should be able to put out 3K HPS. In a 5 man. As disc.
I roll my eyes, whatever, let's keep on going. Palestress goes off without a hitch, though he yells at me for keeping everyone else alive while I let him get down to 20% health, even though I had PS'd him and everything.
Black Knight, on the first phase, the huntard freeze traps the ghoul, so it's alive after p1 instead of just blowing up. Then, in p2, the tank can't pick up all the adds. Literally, all 5 ppl had aggro. I ran thru the DK's DnD and faded and still had shit chasing me. Nevertheless, I keep everyone alive. Until the end, of course, when warrior tank and his DK retard friend STAND IN A GROUP OF EXPLODING ghouls. Blames me for not healing him. I say, dude - don't stand in a group of ghouls with fucking exploding whatchamacallits over their heads. They both die, I manage to kite the remaining ghoul and Black Knight with just shields, renew, PS, and a quick penance or two on me, while they run back. P3, I get the death's bite, so I'm AOE healing with all I got (PoM+shields+PoH), and everyone stays alive except me, because I'm cloth and had that wicked debuff. He's like, release, and run back, and we'll loot, since no one else can rezz, and I do, and while I'm a ghost, he kicks me from the group.
I wish I could gank Horde.
I only lost a conquest badge, but still, I'm pissed.

You can't. You can get aggro, but it's impossible to hold aggro. Think about it.. if they acted like all other mobs in the game, all you would have to do is hit them once and then stay over the healer and they would never go anywhere except on you.

Is it too much to ask to find a group of non-retards? People who can take 5 minutes to prepare and know generally how a fight works, who knows how to play their class, who can spend 30 minutes a day doing dailies so they can have gold to repair??
Had not one but two people saying they pretty much had to go because they had no gold to repair. I kinda blew up at this and was like, how the hell can you not have gold when it's so fucking easy to make? "Warrior gear is expensive to repair."

Healers were pro. Dps was below average and that second tank was full of pure fail. There was no way I was going back for a second day.
I wanted to reach through the internet and slap that bitch of a tank. How can someone who's got the achivement for clearing (at least that part of Uld) not know what the hell they're suppose to do to tank. I.E. If I'm tanking the arm, how am I suppose to pick up the adds?

Pretty much. We ran three healers last night even. That's probably the only way we got through Hodir because the dps wasn't there again. We barely beat the enrage timer. I think I blew every cooldown I had too, some twice haha.
And speaking of that retard OT, we tried Ignis again and he couldn't figure out how to get the adds to shatter. "I'll just tank them all again!" Me: "You realize everyone you keep up gives the boss a 20% damage buff right?"

I think thats somewhat of a strategy mistake. Having as many healers as possible spec into dps and crack out adds and help roll the debuff on hodir make the fight way easier. I solo heal hodir on 10 man all the time for hard mode...we run 3 on 25. The funny thing is if you get the hang of it hard mode is easier than doing it normally.:shrug:

Well my statement was misleading. The guild members are pretty hardcore raiders, but not their sole purpose in life. I'm actually really happy with them, we all talk in vent and "hang out" even when not raiding. When I dinged 80 5 or 6 of them all contributed BOE 80 items, crafted items, enchants, gems, etc and upped my dps by like 450.
They are knowledgable and helpful, and when we raid we have fun and they explain fights if not everyone knows them, etc. I guess kind of standard stuff. Only thing I don't care much for is that the majority are in Australia and New Zealand, so they are really late night raiders. I think I said it before but I got in the guild because my brother, who's in Korea, is in it.

I've been given permission to unload on our mouth breathers tonight. The only rule is when I blow up on a healer and they bail I log into the druid and heal for the rest of the night. I said deal sucker!
I wouldn't mind stepping in and showing them how to heal.. although I have zero experience in Ulduar and I can't even be sure I spelled the place right.

It's pretty simple:
AVOID THE FUCKING AVOIDABLE DAMAGE WHILE DOING YOUR FUCKING JOB.
This applies to the tanks, dps, and healers.
Rinse, repeat, change graphics, change some basic fight mechanics, have fun, profit.

"What's the strategy for this boss?"
"make his green bar go away"
"but i'm a healer!"
"oh, then keep you, the tank, and everyone elses green bars up"
"what about the aoe?"
"if it looks like it's going to kill you, it probally does. So walk away from it. It's probably a big fireball, glowy red shit, or a claw attached to the front of the loot pinata"

Who are your healers?
Survain always seemed like a very capable healer.. he's no Kallell mind you (anymore) but he wasn't horrible.

I think a good heal challenge is H ToC. The rogue, shaman, and warrior bosses spawned on me last night and I was healing, that sucked. Then the priestest bitch that summons shadows was the second wave :( That and the black knight 3rd phase. All three of those are good heal tests if you ask me.
Now if you have spectacular geared tank, and high ranged dps, it's easier, but they are a good challenge.

Healing H ToC as discipline is challenging, but with Circle of Cheating it's pretty easy.

Login sucked for a lot of people. Mail box lag and town lag sucked ass. Instances and raids were smooth though.
I got off the PC early because the wife was being a bitch so I left our 25uld before Hodir which sucks because we were going good.

Did twin Val's last night now that its buffed....on 25 man its a healing nightmare. The only way to reliably get through is for the healers to stand around the melee dps set to the opposite color of everyone their healing and run around catching the color that the melee their healing are not if a ball gets to the melee thats the wrong color it will explode and do 8-9k damage to all the melee and the tanks, which if timed correctly could gib the tank.
Meanwhile the entire raid is taking constant tick damage of 2 or 3k, the tanks are being destroyed and mouth breathers are getting slammed for 8.5k orb hits. Its sensory overload...grid is flying all over the place while your running around the room trying to catch multi-colored balls and maintain the right color debuff. Pretty fun I guess but its inching toward the border of too stressful to be enjoyable.

TOO LATE.
We did it on 10 man. Had to boot a scrub rogue and then a tank left. Got Anticor on his DK and downed it on like the second try. Then WG was about to start and we lost our chance at the other two. :(

Yah. I did it on 10 man this morning.
Random pug, 3rd attempt. Not bad. Pretty damn easy to tell who is retarded.

We downed Anub one-shot on 10 man.
Started the heroic 10 man, but the Northrend beasts come out on a timer (2 1/2 minutes). We'd burn the first guy down in time, but we'd be behind on the remaining snobolds, and then people wouldn't spread out and multiple ppl would get hit with a toxin/fire breath. The fire breath hits for a SHIT TON on heroic mode. It's not good.
Then a few people had to leave, so we didn't even manage the first boss. Heroic seems hard. Got 41 attempts left.

-TheE- 41 attempts left? There is a cap on how many times you can try heroics?

On heroic Trial of the Crusader, yes. You get 50 attempts for the raid lockout period. You get better loot for doing it in fewer attempts, an achievment for doing it in less than 25, and a mount for doing it in 1 attempt.
It's hard, man. I don't anticipate anyone doing it in 1 attempt for at least a few lockout periods.
