Non Elitist Raiding Diary : Magmaw 10

Tue, 1 Mar 2011 12:54:32 +0000

Yes, that's the way we do it -- prot warrior tanks the parasites, and if he's getting overwhelmed, we throw some AoE at the wormlings while Magmaw's collecting himself after spikage. My recent post Thanks- Murloc Mom

Ouchy. Incidentally, if you're wandering around 1-shotting low level mobs, a macro like /castsequence reset=3 Arcane Barrage, Fire Blast, Ice Lance might be handy for spammable dps on the move. You might need to tweak the reset depending on your haste, I'm not sure.

That's this link from the Cata beta ze Tree is referring to, btw. In case it happened while you were away. Or under a rock. Or something. Also, there's a dinosaur too. http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2... Did you hum the Jaws theme to yourself?

Kiss My Alas : Weekend Raiding Roundup

Grats!! "Your pathetic magic has OW. OUUUUCH OOW HURRRRK" *dead*. And I should hope you did swear. Sindy deserves a curse or two. For BQL, we had plenty of fun setting up a bite order only for her queeniness to zip across the room and nibble on a hunter (no! bad queenie!). I'm such a colossal dork that I open a notepad window on my second screen and, in 72pt type, write the names of the people I'm supposed to bite. Most people probably aren't that dozy but I find it helps when the panic sets in. Then again, I have also been know to write "Fanatics" or "Adherents" in the same notepad window for the Lady Deathwhisper fight so...yeah.

I am confident that Zel would (almost) never (knowingly) tell a lie (unless she really wanted to).

I think I might have a fab female voice for you. I'll mention it to her when she comes online, and see if she'd be up for it.

Brilliant! The disco boys in 3 tries? Ball control FTW!

Ow. Too funny. Sides hurt.

Kiss My Alas : Pimpin' some blogs

Hehe. Thanks for the not-so-gentle prod, and the linkage. I'm awake now, I promise ;)

London obviously has tons of stuff to do -- it's one of the world's major cities. If you're in town during the summer, the open air theatre in Regents Park is great: the stage area runs back into the trees that ring the auditorium area and productions usually make great use of both the trees and the green areas either side. Being able to buy a bottle of wine from the bar underneath the seating area and take it to your seat doesn't hurt either. There are loads of things to recommend, both within the UK and without. I'll assemble some thoughts and come back -- there's time!

Dire Kitteh/Laser poultry would be pretty cool. How about: Hunters should have a PVP ability that allows them to (temporarily) tame druids in animal form.

Wow. Ok. I'll blame it all on Yngwe then (from reading your blog, that seems to be appropriate)!

^^ this is extremely perceptive. And more-or-less what I wanted to say. Dammit. Oh yeah, but I can still reiterate: a) well done At, and b) good luck with whatever option you choose for the next phase. As you well know, phase transitions can be a little tricky but even if it's a little bumpy you can still down the ... er ... boss. But don't do that. Killing your boss is bad.

Heroism is ... hmm. Maybe heroism now is simply extraordinary efforts to make small differences. The grand gesture has been largely appropriated by the self-serving, so perhaps all that's left is a consistent, continuous push to make things better in a meaningful way. And what happened to Michael Marshall Smith? He wrote three witty, clever, occasionally heartbreaking Sci-fi novels (with great graphic design, if you bought the UK paperbacks) then disappeared. From the look of his website, he had a break, then wrote a bunch of cheesy-looking action novels (disclaimer: I haven't read them). Whu? My recent post Tech tip: Wowhead *everywhere*!

Must remember to listen to this again when I'm *not* ill, to see if it still has the same soporific effect. It's probably because I'm not feeling well, but I actually dozed off midway through. Also: congratulations Chas on your newly-confirmed wow-pinup status! My recent post Screenshot post: All-Azeroth Staring Contest
