Uhhh what level?

Shield Slam. TC. Keep rend up.


Also, server transfer is a go. Starting it in a few, I have to delete my other glass hammer first.

[AGar]

Oh, you'll need a macro or to keybind Battle Stance and Defensive Stance for Charge.

I have a macro that goes:

/cast Battle Stance
/cast Charge
/cast Defensive Stance

I have to hit it, wait about a second for stances to come off CD, then hit it again, I get charge off, and the rage from it comes in defensive stance and I then have rage for rend, which I apply first.

(P.S., if anyone is good with macros, I'd love to know how to do that all at once, but I don't think it's possible )

[Fenchurch]

Oh yeah... I forgot Charge isn't allowed in Defensive stance as default. I took the Warbringer talent which allows it, but you can't get that until level 25 or so. Prior to that I never bothered changing stances, I just ran at the mobs manually, or used a ranged weapon to pull them back (annoying if there are caster classes though).

And no, that's as good a macro as you can get. Cooldowns make it impossible to have everything happen without pressing the button more than once. But it is still very handy to have a sequence of events on one button.

[AGar]

That took like... half an hour, tops. I be an 85 Warr on Lightning's Blade now.

And yeah - Warbringer should be the first talent taken when you hit 3rd tier talents. It's so useful it's not even funny.

There are some pretty cool PhPBB skins made just for warcraft. Though I think you need hosting to do it..

If you want to go that way, you should check out 1and1.com. Nice cheap hosting like $2-$4 per month, and it includes domain name

So the new priest and I tried to do heroic BRC today. The first two bosses were great. The third one... not so much. Holy fuck.

I need work as a tank. It's been way too long since I've done this.

I'll be around from say... 8-945 if anyone wants to run something then.

[Nightson]

For Steelbender, having DBM helps because it puts a timer for the melted armor debuff up so you don't have the count in your head or mouseover the icon. Then it's just a matter of waiting till the buff has five seconds left and running to the other side of the pillar of fire.

[AGar]

Ok so fucking family wanted dinner, just heading home now. Fuck.

And it wasn't the timer. It was everyone wanted me to keep him on one side of the pillar.

[Nightson]

And it wasn't the timer. It was everyone wanted me to keep him on one side of the pillar.

Well they're dumb and tell them no. There really isn't any reason for that at all, the other side isn't out of ranged range and melee can run through the pillar just fine.

[xRECKONERx]

We need to set up who is going to do what so we can make this official.

The Banker ~ dramonic

Public Relations ~ InflatablePie

Human Resources ~ InflatablePie

Raid Leader ~ ?

Someone-Who-Organizes-Guild-Calendar-Shit ~ ?

Obviously, these aren't ALL the positions we'll have, but they're the starting positions. Someone needs to volunteer for HR/PR so Pie can take the other one. I think Kairyuu or BBM would be best for Raid Leader since they have more experience with it, but I don't know what everyone's experience is. Feel free to pick which ones you'd like to do.

Personally, I wouldn't mind being the Calendar Organizer and setting up events and stuff.

[dramonic]

We have a fifth tab =D

BBM, for the love of god, take care of the damn boxes in tab 3 X_X

[xRECKONERx]

INDEED!

FIFTH TAB WHOOOO!

[AGar]

Dram, I'll start working on some too once I get bank privileges back. Transferring over reset me to initiate.

I'd be interesting in taking whichever Pie doesn't want/prefer. Maybe Pub Relations as that'll be more involved with the site? IDK.

Also def Kai/BBM for raid leads.

And it wasn't the timer. It was everyone wanted me to keep him on one side of the pillar.

Well they're dumb and tell them no. There really isn't any reason for that at all, the other side isn't out of ranged range and melee can run through the pillar just fine.

Heals set up the lightwell there. That was why it was "OMG keep him on one side." Otherwise, yeah, running through was the WoWhead recommendation.

[Flameaxe]

lol lolwell.

[dramonic]

lightwell

Problem no.1

[xRECKONERx]

Swear to god, people need to learn to use Lightwell more. It's ridiculously good for healing, and with the recent patches, people can use it without even untargetting their current target.

I had a post like this typed out...and reck beat me to it. The problem with Agar's situation was the fact that they based their strategy solely around the lightwell position, and you really can't do that. Fight mechanics > lightwell mechanics.

[Umbrage]

In the local game store today, I was checking out the WoW expansions. 50$ each. Meaning it would be 100$ as well as the monthly subscription to get back into things.

THIS IS WHY PEOPLE PIRATE GAMES.

[xRECKONERx]

Umm... that's a bit much.

The Battle Chest includes vanilla WoW, TBC, and strategy guides for both for only $40.
Wrath of the Lich King is $40 from all retailers I've seen.
And Cataclysm is only $35 for me from Amazon (Prime).

[AGar]

Agreed. Just don't force the fight mechanics on it (this was our new HPriest, fwiw.)

[InflatablePie]

Amazon has all three for $107.

Or you could do what I did and wait until Blizzard's anniversary in like November and get Vanilla/BC/Wrath for $20 and then spend $40ish for Cata.

Also I signed up for the website or whatever, you should link that in the topic so I don't waste five minutes on google.
