I would like to request that I be allowed to bring pudolski into Sunwell whenever possible so that I might be able to grab the random schematic drop from trash : [Hardened Khorium Goggles]. these are a MASSIVE upgrade for him and since no other engineer is a tank, this would not be used by a main in raid.

Its that time again!

"Find the body of the gnome contest"

Rules:

1. The winner will be the first person to post a screenshot of the toon "Starsgnome"
2. The body will be in plain sight. It will not be in a building, in an area that would require an exploit, or any other non-standard means. It can be anywhere in the WoW game (Eastern Kingdoms, Kalamdor, Outlands)
3. YOU MUST POST A SCREENSHOT TO WIN
4. The winner will recieve 200g and a shiny fish scale.
5. The contest is open to guild members only. The winning person must have their toon in the screenshot.
6. Did I mention the winner will be the first to post a screenshot?

Be sure to check back for more clues as I post them. I dont expect the gnome to be found for at least a week.

Good luck and happy hunting! 

Watching Fraps'd Gameplay via the P.O.V. of a Paladin is sooo boring. WTB Mage/Warlock/Hunter - something too watch and not get bored! Sorry Paladins, Flashing everyone for 3k Kind of gets repetitive

This is something that has bothered me for awhile, so I supposed I'd get into it here.

About a week ago I was on <Kill Order>'s vent horde side, when one of their former hunters (who had transfered off the server to a guild in BT/MH). The hunter stated that I did not know when I was talking about when I responded to his statement of "ya I killed someone with only my 2 swords and a bow." I quipped back with "Well hunters can solo Illidan at lvl 65 and thats the reason that the hunters can't use his Warglaives."

Long story short, I was told that I didn't know shit about the class and having a 70 hunter on the arena test realm (which I don't) doesn't make me an expert. I was told to go kill Illidan and then maybe I'd know what I was talking about.

Now as far as the hunter goes, he knows nothing about me, as the only toon I have that is older than my hunter is my original paladin. I also know for a fact that given a head start, if a hunter knows what they are doing they can normally kite someone to death. This however is all beside the point.

"If you haven't Killed Illidan you don't know what you are talking about."

"If you haven't gotten over 2k in S3, you don't know what you are talking about."

Lolret, Roflret, Retdpslols, Your guild carries you to Illidan

Ah yes, Retribution, a path that few think about following, fewer take, and the fewest gear right.

Ret PvE gear often comes at the price of plate dps instance drops, where Int becomes a luxury and the set bonuses are a joke.

With so many percentage based talent, ret scales well with gear, the catch becomes though where do we get that gear.

Todays look will be at easily attainable gear to quickly allow for raid utility to be brought into a raid. Without Further ado, I give you, the items!

Head:

[item]Furious Gizmatic Goggles[/item]Perhaps the easiest of all as I have been working on it since I came back to this server at level 46 and started leveling again. The Plate DPS goggles from engineering provide a well balanced helm that will last for a long amount of time. Plus a great pvp rogue finder and pve primal finder.

Neck:

[Mithril Chain of Heroism] This lovely piece out of the Chess Event in Karazan provides for a lovely set of stats for those who like smashing things :D Also remember Ret paladins when specced for PvE gain 2.2 AP per 1 Str.

Shoulders:

Craftable, the [Ragesteel Shoulders] are good shoulders for being a blue. These shoulders have hit, crit, stam and str as well as 2 yellow sockets and a crit socket bonus. These could last until a T4 shoulder drop (T4 LOLZ) or possible later PvP Item. It is still questionable whether even the Gladiator Shoulders would be an upgrade.

Back:

WTB [item]Vengeance Wrap[/item] PST! Other things that might last until Vengence Wrap would be Royal Cloak of Arathi Kings or Cape of the Dark Reavers.

Chest:

My Current Chest Piece is an extremely good one. And Will last Until Glad S1 or T4 at the earliest :D
