Just bumping this post.
Crazytexan — Thu, 07/31/2008 - 13:37Just bumping this post. Foresight is a GREAT guy and I know that there has been an influx of new members lately, but with that much invested in this guy, I think it would be a shame if he didnt get picked up.
Hes a great guy and knows his stuff better than most. More of a community person than worried about a raid spot, and thats why hes such an awesome person...
Please dont let this guy fall through the cracks
Just an update on what
Grasen — Fri, 07/25/2008 - 23:58Just an update on what Foresight has done with us so far. He has filled in with lf1m a few times and made some ssc/tk's He has done pretty well imo throught. At this point in time we have 1pc t6, 2 vials, and 6 hearts invested in Foresight.
I'd like to say how
Aidin — Fri, 07/25/2008 - 10:32I'd like to say how impressed I am with this fella's determination.
You all know that I know a pretty large population from Insurrection (or former Insurrection) from my old guild. Foresight however wasn't one that I knew. He's impressed me on his own merit.
I am assuming he heard through the grapevine that BT will require the SR gear for mother...pretty sure the grapevine was Lorb who racked up all his mats in less then 24 hours. So what does Foresight do...he goes out and starts farming!!! He had all mats (minus hearts) for his crafted items. He should be capped by the weekend.
Kudos to you Foresight!
Last night I ran with
Lorb — Fri, 07/25/2008 - 12:12Last night I ran with foresight for the 2nd time with DF on a new boss for us. I thought he did an awsome job coming in and staying alive staying alive staying alive.....(thanks to who ever put up that post a few days ago about John Travolta, cant get that song outa my mine). For what its worth, I've been with foresight for a couple of years and he is always prepared, awsome attitude and knows his stuff. He would be a great addition to Downfall.
Great showing from Foresight
Aidin — Sun, 07/20/2008 - 22:37Great showing from Foresight this week. He rocked some MH with LF1M and got to see some great new content, then melted some faces in mAlt and Smash n' Grab!!
Did they ever get you the T6 gloves Grasen accidentally looted to the pally? ..help us all with Grasen and the reins of Furious Raid.
Anywho! Parses:
Gruul/Mag
Kael
Oh and dual vials yes yes!
And I do believe it was his first time to go toe to toe with Kael.
Yes I did get my glove's and
Foresight — Mon, 07/21/2008 - 01:12Yes I did get my glove's and I cant thank you guy's enough.
My first Kael kill this weekend so I was excited.
Thank's for the awesome time this weekend....I look forward to maybe raiding more with yous guys!
Glad Blizz took care of
Aidin — Mon, 07/21/2008 - 09:06Glad Blizz took care of that! I still have the T6 token sitting in my bank...I got worried when Blizz didn't take it from me. Glad to hear that it's situated!
You rocked some shit this weekend man...hope to see you in some things again real soon. You've got a great attitude and are just the type of person that thrives in our community.

I will sign up for everything and anything I can.

Dufe — Sat, 07/19/2008 - 14:59In the general sense, it's not a bad idea to start stacking haste at that point, but I tend to shy away from any hard and fast rules on stats. Too much variance comes in from group makeup, fight length/characteristics, etc to make them 100% reliable.
I've redone some of my
Foresight — Sat, 07/19/2008 - 01:31I've redone some of my gear.
I finally got the glove's to break my spellfire set thanks to you guy's (Spellfireset was a gift and a curse)
I cant thank you guy's enough for the T6 gloves...it allowed me to finally change some gear around
Got hit capped and lost some sd from my old gear, but im still at 1100 sd.
Started stacking some haste.
I have read that once you are hit capped and have 1100 sd or over to start stacking some haste as a fire mage.
Fellow mage's what do you think?
I know Foresight from way
Vulk — Tue, 07/15/2008 - 07:31I know Foresight from way back pre BC. Was one of the nicest guys in my old guild.

Foresight — Sun, 07/13/2008 - 03:59I'm sorry it has taken me long to reply to your comments, I didnt realize that the post had been moved. So I shall now take this time to answer some of your questions.
Foresight is an outstanding
Ananaras — Thu, 07/10/2008 - 17:00Foresight is an outstanding person as well as a player. He has no life so all he knows is WOW and dead bodies:) He's one of the most dependable people i know. Gratz to you man and gl:p
I ran a shitton with
Crazytexan — Thu, 07/10/2008 - 16:27I ran a shitton with foresight.... 5's, 10's 25's and even 40's with forsight... he was ALWAYS top mage dps... ALWAYS and i believe that he maintained ~1050-1100 dps for most fights. He was an officer in our last guild, and I dont believe I've EVER met anyone whos more loyal to a guild and its people, although annannannananras falls into this catagory as well.
I think this cat would be an outstanding addition to DF.
FORESIGHT FOR PRES

Dufe — Thu, 07/10/2008 - 13:09The avatar is from Idiocracy. The Secretary of Education.
[item]Darkmoon Card: Crusade[/item] is better (should be slightly above [Icon of the Silver Crescent] for him, I just didn't feel that it fit well into the "easily attainable" tag I put at the top of the list.
Dufe, this is a question
Shihli — Thu, 07/10/2008 - 12:49Dufe, this is a question that's been on my mind for a while now -
Where on earth is your avatar from?
After some time looking at
Dufe — Thu, 07/10/2008 - 12:28After some time looking at your gear, I see a few areas to improve. Overall you've done a good job and your gems/enchants show good effort. (Note: This isn't "Your a noob look what you're wearing!" Just some friendly suggestions.)
Keep in mind that all of the above advice is strictly for your current fire spec. At your level of gearing (mainly 2/5 T5), you'd do more dps as arcane, even without an spriest. Just to give you an idea with your current gearset (but changing some enchants/gems) you could gain as much as 75 dps by switching to arcane. (Based on a 6min fight with no spriest.) Ever tried out arcane?
Thank's for the input
Foresight — Sun, 07/13/2008 - 05:10Thank's for the input Dufe.
I'm running a lttle low on Badge's atm, so I fixed what I could.
I don't have the pattern for the bracer's or the heart of darkness for the bracer's, so I'm sol there,
If you armory me now you will see that I used your advice and reworked some of my gear. I have several trinkets that you listed. I alternate several of them according to the fight.
As for the question about arcane. I was arcane pre bc...now a day's I mainly switch between frost and fire for pvp and pve purposes. I'm alway's game for something new though :)
Hope this answer's some of you guy's questions!
Have a great day

Dufe — Thu, 07/10/2008 - 09:35I'll look at your gear in a sec, but I wanted to ask for some additional info first.
1. Do you know what your typical DPS is? (On "tank-n-spank" fights like Lurker, Rage or Fathomlord)
2. Are you familiar with focus macros?
3. How do you manage decursing in raid?

Foresight — Sun, 07/13/2008 - 04:44"I'll look at your gear in a sec, but I wanted to ask for some additional info first.
1. Do you know what your typical DPS is? (On "tank-n-spank" fights like Lurker, Rage or Fathomlord)
2. Are you familiar with focus macros?
3. How do you manage decursing in raid?"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.Ok...I average on a tank and spank around 1013-1138(1138 being the highest I have reached on such fight)
2. Yes if you are talking about focus macros that have me target say a totem in the Fathom Lord fight.
ex: /target spitfire
/cast Scorch(Rank 9)
3. I have x-pearl unit frames and it shows me when someone get's a curse and I can decurse them quickly. At one time I had a decursing mod that was really buggy so I did away with it.
Next question!
Sounds good for 1 & 3.
Dufe — Sun, 07/13/2008 - 12:28Sounds good for 1 & 3. Focus macros are something not a whole lot of players are familiar with. Check http://www.wowwiki.com/Useful_macros/Mage under the polymorph section for some examples. Makes CC's 99999% easier.
Glad to hear you're putting the effort in on your gear. Let's have you sign up for weekend 25-mans runs or any 10/5 man runs so we can get some experience playing with you.
