Hello. Its been awhile since

Hey what's up with this app?
cromi — Sat, 01/29/2011 - 17:38Hey what's up with this app? Been a while with no activity. Still interested in Rbgs? Always looking for healers.
your working times are server
Grasen — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 06:27your working times are server time? rated bg's are thur and fri 6:30-10 server (pst) is makeing those times week in and week out dooaboe? or would you only be able to make every other month?
those are EST times for my
Authillin — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 07:17those are EST times for my working schedule, so your RBG times would be 9:30-1 for me. I usually don't get home till 11 when I'm working nights. That means I can make the raid times when I'm working my open shifts, and would only be able to join the raids late when I'm doing my closing shifts.
while I need pvp healers i am
Grasen — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 07:33while I need pvp healers i am going to be straight up with yah, Without you being able to commit 100% i would never be able to offer you a perminant spot, I am expecting to need a fillin healer tonight though and as a healer you would likely see decient fillin time still so dont get discouraged. Can you be on and ready to go at 6:15 server tonight?
(edit: by perminant spot i am refering to rated bg team)
I understand that. If I
Authillin — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 09:22I understand that. If I can't commit 100% I don't expect to get jumped to the front of the line with a permanent spot. I wouldn't mind just doing the fill in thing. From what I understand, you need a pretty deep roster for RBG because the size of the raid changes every week. I don't mind being a bench player as long as I get too see some action. I plan on farming arena for my conquest points anyway. I should be on tonight, hopefully I will have enough time to grind out some honour items before that to gear up a bit.
"left a drunken co-worker
Scaron — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 06:26"left a drunken co-worker that tried to kiss me on her birthday tonight to get my toon to 85."
This may be the definition of commitment.
definition of addiction, more
shroom — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 09:19definition of addiction, more likely. If your only other hobby/interest is chasing down girls and trying to get them to go out with you, and something like this lands in yoru lap yet you pass it up to play wow, thats the sign of a serious problem. Wish i could say i was joking, but im not. Hopefully you were just kidding, but if you werent you should really take a look at the game and how its affecting you. The last thing i want for you or anyone is to lose you from the game because it took over your life.
Serious stuff aside, i find in arena's Resilience is my number one stat. I'm often the kill target and an extra 3-4% damage reduction keeps me alive through the third stun and allows me to start healing myself. Thoughts?
If you are the kill target
Maltoheals — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 11:35If you are the kill target you will want shit tons of resil
if your team mate or mates focus fire on one target and you can survive long enough you can get ahead so to speak and once you take down one of theres before they take down you things get easier
You have one advantage over me --- your a pally so take a longer time to kill --- If I go holy it is a challenge extending the kill time without a shit ton resil
A) She was sloppy drunk and I
Authillin — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 09:48A) She was sloppy drunk and I was sober. I like girls sure, but I'm not going to take advantage of somebody like that.
B) It was a big party so it's not like I ditched her (I'm pretty sure she didn't even notice I left since I didn't get any phonecall/txt asking where I was)
C) I didn't go to her party to see her, I went to meet other girls. The girl to guy ratio was like 1:15 so I didn't feel feel like grinding out numbers against heavy opposition in a room where I didn't know anybody but the sloppy drunk birthday girl.
The arenas I mostly do are with my roommate (a warrior) in the 2s bracket. I haven't done any with him as a pally yet so everything has no basis in first hand experience. Against healer/dps teams Int and Spirit are important stats because unless you are caught way out of position it's a game about mana. With one DPS on me I'm not going to die before I start healing if I'm in pvp gear and stacking resil is just overkill. For double dps teams that target me, yes, resil would be a great stat to stack.
I'm going to be in all pvp gear anyway though, so 4% extra reduction from gems seems a bit high. You would need something like 40 gem slots to get that from socketing for resil. So what I guess I'm trying to say is I didn't include resil since I am just assuming being in all pvp gear will give me enough and I A) wont be able to reforge into it since all my pieces will have it and B) Am not going to worry about gemming for it since the level of resil I will be sitting at I would value throughput, efficiency and regen as bigger concerns.
fair enough answer. I was
shroom — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 11:37fair enough answer. I was looking more at the resilience trinkets, 301 res vs 301 spirit, but i definantly see your point. I run with a dk and we are both noobs, but the experience is the same, on long tank/healer fights i do get tend to get low on mana, but as long as im judgeing i dont run out before my DK kills the other healer. We fight a lot of 2 dps group comps, but its probably because we are in a lower bracket.
Armory is down so I can't
cromi — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 12:03Armory is down so I can't check what exactly is the gemming scheme and a trinket issue. But always gem intel in some form. If you cannot gem straight intel. I would suggest going with intel+resil or intel+spir. As far as healing goes you want intel and resil. They're stats that are extremely important, and to overlook them means you have about a minute of healing in most pvp situations. Pvp gear will most likely give you intel, spirit, and resil. So it's more a matter of gemming into that scheme and checking your haste to make sure that if you are close to a haste cap you hit it (which pvp gear is obviously failing in). And hopefully hit pvp hit rating and pen.
But this is mainly for rbgs. And I'm lacking in pally knowledge so I'll let the pallys ask the questions.
Whoa, im just an offhand
shroom — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 19:03Whoa, im just an offhand pally, im asking questions for theorycrafting reasons almost as much as app reasons. I dont think Spell pen is too huge of an issue for us, as most often are only offensive attacks are Judgements, and its about getting mana back, not doing damage. Hit is debateable, if you missed one of those judgements, or a stun, that would be huge in a negative way, gemming hit over int/spirit/res would also take a bunch out of us.
at the moment in arena's, int
FireWire — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 19:17at the moment in arena's, int haste is the strongest thing you can do, fast casts, and like 4% back on mana every second is pretty dam good in my opinion. Although that is debateable, the top pallies for arena's have all gone with that path, currently I myself have reforged as much haste as possible.
You shouldn't have to pick up
Authillin — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 19:36You shouldn't have to pick up hit since one of the talents that gives range to your judgments also gives you 50% of your spirit in hit. That will give you more than enough so that your stuns and judgments never miss. The real tricky part is Haste vs Crit vs Resil. You can make good arguments for either. All are better than mastery, but none of them are better than Int or spirit until you feel you have good enough regen to stop worrying about spirit.
well unless it's in SotA then
FireWire — Fri, 01/14/2011 - 22:10well unless it's in SotA then haste is somewhat generally better than spirit, the extra haste makes it easier to get the 4% back from seal of insight is somewhat better considering that spirit isn't as desirable in arena's/rated BG's. It might just be that all the very top rated holy pally's have haste>spirit, but I dunno.
