Raid
Shihli's Awkward Gear Predicament
Shihli — Tue, 07/15/2008 - 15:08
So I've been pouring over Cheeky's Spreadsheet for a decent while this afternoon (slow day at work), and I've discovered something:
With my gear options currently, I could see some bizarre dps increases and decreases depending on how much +hit and +haste I opt to use.
My options, more or less:
1) [Bindings of Lightning Reflexes] vs. [Wraps of Precise Flight]
2) [Cloak of Fiends] vs. [Drape of the Dark Reavers]
3) [Shattered Sun Pendant of Might] vs. [Choker of Vile Intent]
4) [Valestalker Girdle] vs. [Boneweave Girdle]
5) [Black Bow of the Betrayer] vs. [Legionkiller]
In short, I have a lot of applied theorycrafting ahead of me. Next time we step into BT I might start dinking around with my gear and see how I do. Depending on the amount of haste, sometimes the crossbow comes out over Illidan's bow, and all hell breaks loose if I opt to use all of my haste gear (in short, I get to weird "humps" where more haste doesn't help, as my shot rotation gets borked due to bad autoshot casting times).
Whoo boy.

I thought I'd start a little Kara for people new to 70 or for alts. I wanted to see how many people are interested.
Karazhan attunement, anyone?

(Copied from a previous blog entry I had made)
This is to get a bit more visibility from the raiding and not-yet-raiding lv. 70's out there.
So in order to get myself to Karazhan attunement (which I know isn't "necessary" but it leads to free gems, rep rings, etc), I need to do the Karazhan key quest chain.
I would like some help doing this - however, I would like to hit specific instances in a specific order. The reason for this? I have literally EVERY Outland instance-based quest (except heroic quests) available on Drewpy, so if I do the instances in the following order, I would ONLY need to ask for help with each non-heroic instance once.
1) Shadow Labyrinth - leads to quests in Steamvaults, Shattered Halls, and Arcatraz.
2) Botanica
3) Mechanar - these two lead to a quest in Arcatraz.
4) Steamvaults
5) Arcatraz - these two lead to a quest in Black Morass.
6) Black Morass - completed Karazhan attunement!
"Anytime" - Shattered Halls
In short, I might ask for some instance help after raids a few nights this week, possibly on the weekend. By no means should anyone feel they HAVE to do any of this with me, but I would appreciate the help.
Thanks guys.

Sparkly
Grats Saedo :) And a huge amount of respect to the rogues on how they handled the distribution of it. We can't wait to see all of you in a complete set.
We've got a lot of new healers that need a LOT of work. We also have some old veterans that could use some new insight into how play their class as efficiently as possible.
I'm setting up this one hour group session for all of us to get on vent and go somewhere to work on honing our skills. We'll be going over things like:
- Configuration of Grid and Grid-addons
- Discussion of Grid indicators
- Using indicators as a realtime guide on where to put heals
- Downranking
- Macros: mouse-over cleanse, auto-trinket-pop, self-casts
- The focus frame
- How To Use Other People's HoTs To Make YOU Better
- Splitting up the raid into healing zones
- Gear choices: Longterm or Power-healing?
- Decisions: How To Decide Who To Heal?
- Why We Don't Always Care About "Healing Meters"
This will be a quick, fun way to get a lot of healing mains some information they might not have been exposed to yet. All healing alts are welcome and highly encouraged to join.
I have this scheduled tentatively for Thursday evening. The time may change, so keep a heads up. Please SIGN UP so we have some numbers on who's coming.
I'd like that all healers read up at the following resources:
Note: This is not a fresh Kara, its starting at the Shade Trash. The time is Kinda loose because we prob wont have enough people until after MALT Gruul/Mag. I also may not be on at that time to start invites due to the fact that its my birthday so i hope barqs or everstar could do that :)
