Alprazalam — Mon, 07/11/2011 - 14:13

I honestly thought I had posted a comment.  Guess I didn't click save.  Anyway, The specs are what they should be.  I chose to do a slightly different arcane spec, but he has all the essentials.  This is my Arcane Spec.  I chose Invocation cause there is a few chances to interrupt, but if you do, then a 10% damage boost can't be over looked.  I always saw imp. Blink as a fun talent and not really necessary.  I understand some people choose to pick it up and that some ppl swear that it has saved their lives before, but imo, if you were standing in the correct place to begin with then you shouldn't need it.  I also love the 6% Damage Reduction and instant invis from Prismatic Cloak.  The Damage Reduction isn't the big deal here though, its the instant invis.  Right at the start of a fight, have an extra 2 seconds to get in another AB during ur burn phase before mirrors fade is a HUGE DPS boost that that AB crits for 100k.

 

Gear wise, get Darkmoon Card Volcano.  Heart of Ignacious is really nice, but there are some blue quality trinkets that actually do more DPS then it for arcane and fire.  Plus, until you get heroic therallions mirror, Shard of Woe, or a trinket from firelands, you won't replace Volcano.  For fire, Volcano is still one of our BIS trinkets.  PERIOD!!!  Reforging/gems looks good for a fire spec.  I've come really close to just reforge/regem for Arcane though and just switch trinkets around for when I go Fire.  Arcane is alot of fun, and doing 50k DPS for the first 30 seconds of a fight will make your EPEEN grow alot.

 

 

Anyway, thanks for filling in for me last week.

Plum's picture

Ah Yes!

Plum — Mon, 07/11/2011 - 18:16

Indeed ive been meaning to get Volcano, just hadnt had enough gold or a reliable scribe to make me a some cards. As for the points in Blink is was  just purely a "fun" talent. I did have a little debate about justifying invocation for the 10% dmg increase (guess it depends on the fight and raid comp) as I chose not to take it i didnt see the need as our CD is 45 sec long and we have had our dk for interupts. It would be really great if every fight was interupt intesive, but for our raid comp it just wasnt necessary.

Yes Arcane is really really "ego" expanding, huge crits, simple rotation, all around fun! I have also thought about reforging/gemming to arc aswell, a simple yet fun spec.

Thanks for the look over! Any and all information is greatly appreciated.

Wanted to see how he did filling in for GEL this week before I added my 2 cents. Simply put I would love to see this guy in guild.

Has excellent raid awareness, always where he needed to be, when he needed to be there.

Great attitude, just seems like a generally easy going dude.

Was on time to raid, communicates well, and comes to raid knowing the boss fights.

Only suggestion I have is for you to work on arcane, and polish up your dps a little more.

Overall I was very impressed, I hope to see you in guild soon. Good Luck!

sure can!

Plum — Thu, 07/07/2011 - 18:11

Unlocking the Amd Phenom II X2 555 at 3.8ghz to an impressive quad core. Let me clarify what went on, I unlocked the 2 additional cores amd hid on the chip turning a dual core into a QUAD. making it a AMD Phenom II X4 B55. Unfortunatly it came at the cost of downclocking the cpu just abit to 3.6ghz. Mind you this was all done on air. Other than that thats the highest stable.

"...you seem to have alot of mature
dedicated people among your guild."

Lol, Alaskian fire dragon is all I have to say to that. He did contribute to that conversation though, so he can't be all that bad. :D Also, all that other stuff people said about raid awareness... We don't care! What really matters is, can he make a good poop joke?

Plum — Thu, 07/07/2011 - 18:07

In a city park stood two statues, one female and the other male. These two statues faced each other for many years.



Early one morning an angel appeared before the statues and said, "Since
the two of you have been exemplary statues and have brought enjoyment to
many people, I am giving you your greatest wish. I hereby give you the
gift of life. You have 30 minutes to do whatever you desire." And with
that command, the statues came to life.



The two statues smiled at each other, ran toward some nearby woods and
dove behind a couple of bushes. The angel smiled to himself as he
listened to the two statues giggling, bushes rustling and twigs
snapping.



After 15 minutes, the two statues emerged from the bushes, satisfied and
smiling. Puzzled, the angel looked at his watch and asked the statues,
"You still have 15 minutes. Would you like to continue?"



The male statue looked at the female and asked, "Do you want to do it again?"



Smiling, the female statue said, "Sure. But this time YOU hold the pigeon down and I'LL poop on it's head!"


He has managed to sit though

Zevix — Thu, 07/07/2011 - 16:09

He has managed to sit though 2 nights of our vent conversation and is still showing up, lol takes a special person xD.

I really like Plum, as well.

Scaron — Thu, 07/07/2011 - 09:11

I really like Plum, as well. Plum is really good at situational awareness which is one of those things you just can't teach. His areas for improvement are probably just finishing the min/max-ing stuff in order to tighten up his rotation etc in order to boost his DPS a little...but to be honest, it's not really that big of a deal...the things that you can't change about a player (whether they're duchebags and whether they play with their head in the sand) are things that Plum is excellent at. (He's neither a duchebag, nor stupid.)  ;)

Zevix — Thu, 07/07/2011 - 07:35

Good Guy, knows whats up and has a good understanding of his class. Has done a nice job in G.E.L. so far, he's easy going and has added information into starts and encounters with a clear understanding of bosses. He has my vote!

Plum seems to be a really nice guy.  He raided with GEL last night and will be joining us again tonight.  Plum takes instructions well and for his first kills in Firelands he did great.  I would vote yes as of right now, but lets see what happens tonight.

Thanks!

Plum — Thu, 07/07/2011 - 01:46
