Funny bug

The picture speaks for itself. They're all mine, able to attack and all the buffs stack! Expecting it to be fixed in todays maintenance however.

Patch 4.0.1

So the new patch, mana turned to focus, tree of life form is gone, mastery points.. I don't know where to begin. I can start out by saying I'm more positively surprised then expected. I had anxiety problems just thinking about the changes on both the hunter and druid.. I shouldn't have although WoW is starting to feel like a different game.

Hunter
Lets start with the hunter, considering this is a hunter blog and all. Volley is gone, and the only problem I've experienced thus far is the damn roaches in Stratholme. They're melees of course and they don't trigger traps. YIEK! Never going in there without an AoE pet again.
For AoE'ing in groups, this is what I do: Trap Launcher , Explosive Trap , Multi-Shot
And as survival, you can use talents on getting serpent sting spread with your multi-shot. Cool right? Now, multi-shot does require 40 focus (bleh). So you will only get two out there in a row. I've got SS glyphed so I regen 2 more focus on dazed targets which helps a little. Concussive Shot is free :)

Over to Mastery Points, I'm now up to 10% (you'll find the reforge (nightelf ò.Ó) in the hut where you find the Enchanting trainer. It's probably trackable. Speaing of tracking, you can now track as much as you want at once. Anyway, increasing my mastery points from 8 to 10% actually made a lot of difference in my dps. I had a lot of hit to take from.
" Increases all elemental damage you deal by 8%. Each point of Mastery increases elemental damage by an additional 1%." for survival hunters.

Resto Druid, healing was a piece of pie compared to what I thought it would be. As you probably know they're replacing the old tree form and here's the new design for Cata:

Borrowed from MMO-Champion

Pretty? NO!! Luckily they're adding a minor glyph so you can be a treant instead of this huge.. Taunka tree mushroom.
Anyway, the now castable tree form is actually alright. I thought I would really miss being a tree 24/7 but I'll survive this. Instant regrowths and all that is worth it.

Mages are overpowered and will be nerfed. But I love it now! I don't have much more to say on that subject as I'm only lvl 69.

Warlocks have some new abilities and it seems awesome, and no more hassle with soul shards. I need more time to try it out.

Paladin? Ugh. Seems cool with the new bonus system but I haven't tried it yet.

That's all I have to say today about my experience with Cataclysm preparations. I'll spend the coming week exploring a bit more (hunter pets etc), and maybe find me a bunker to hide in from the earthquakes. lol

I have to add one thing. For those that didn't get a 310% mount before this patch, have to pay 5000g if they want it. Which is insane.. 3000g or something would do, imo. Oh well, I have a 310% mount, so I got it for free. Yay! Read more

How to kite

Just made this how to as I find it suitable for Cataclysm and new players, and I forgot to save in the right format soo.. Sorry about the black walls.



I flew across half damn outland to find a suitable mob.
1. Fel reaver - he sprints too fast
2. Uvuros - 3 hordies fooling around with him (wtf guys, in the middle of the night? lol) Read more

Wise words of the day

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to grow a larger e-peen. I just want to show you that basic geared players can be just as good.



If you're interested in what the other hunter was, MM stacking ArP.

Have a great day! Read more

Hunter, cataclysm preview!

Read it here: http://www.mmo-champion.com/news-2/cataclysm-class-preview-hunter/

I'm so excited! Especially over Cobra Shot and more pet slots. It's nice to see BM's getting a little boost again.
And Camouflage, aaah.. There is new hope of surviving.

OMG!!

I'm happy right now. I was farming in Zul'drak when i decided to look for the time lost proto drake. (nah didn't find him). Then I thought, fine, I'll go to Sholazar and look for the rares there. First, early in my route, I found King Krush. I tried taming him, but i failed. That doesn't matter, he's not that good looking anyway. And since i had used my Call stabled pet to put away my gorilla, I went to nessingwary and got him out from there, and the dino was still alive :) And then he suffered a long and dreadful death from my gorilla's thunderstomps. I took a 5-10 min break, reading where to look for Loque'nahak. And 3min's after i started to look for him, i tagged him with my macro! My heart was pounding like heck. *frostarrow-tame-hope for no gankers*
And so is the story of me finding the pet i've always been looking out for, but never farmed.

My wowhead comment:
Tamed him 15 minutes after i killed king krush. (I tried taming him, but failed.) I was the only hunter in the area and im still shaking. So this 3-6 hour respawn thing is just bullcrap if these two rares share spawntimer.

King krush - loc 30.5 at 04.55 o'clock
Loque - loc 21.27 at 05.11 o'clock

Been looking randomly for this gorgeous pet, and right now I feel like the luckiest hunter alive. Off i go looking for TLPD ;)

Shattered Hand (EU)

Am i happy i stayed up late? Oh yeah!

BlizzCon 2009

So, I've been following BlizzCon this weekend, and they've shared a lot about the next WoW expansion Cataclysm. What I find fascinating is some of the changes, lets take Hunter e.g. No more Mana! I was like.. OMG! Finally! But then they say Focus instead.. Hm.. Rogue focus is 10 oc, and the hunter will be 6 oc, but 12 while using Steady Shot. I'm not sure. I really have the hang of using my viper and mana pots, but now I need to think about focus. (they better make some good thistle tea!) Not quite what I signed up for, so we'll see if I'm sticking 100% to hunter after the expansion.

Goblins, I think these will rule in PvP. Their race abilities are kind of awesome imo. They have the ability to shoot forward, like the hunters disengage just the other way. And some sort of rocket damage, bleh, don't remember exactly. And a bankbot, available every 30min. Think I'm gonna make a Goblin Warlock. Wonder if I could transfer my undead.. Then I will also transfer my Tauren druid to male troll druid! Ah, how I loooove male trolls. Anywho. Speaking of Warlock (and Mage), NO MORE SPIRIT!

You might think Goblin abilities is imba compared to some of the good old race abilities, but they said something about boosting those as well. My impression is that they're trying to make everything more equal, and hella easier. Sigh. I hope this doesn't mean even more 10 year old children start to play.

All in all, I'm extremely happy they make the gear a lot more class to class spesific, making agility AP +2 (only for hunters, rogues, druids and shamans). I mean.. Aren't you sick of paladins/warriors/DK's that need on your fucking Mail?? And not to forget the typically, and I quote: "uuh, I need for Offspecc, noob. I need Attack power just as much as you do" *logs off*. After the expansion they can officially be cald ninjas, all of those fuckers. Go find yourself some strength instead.

And the costume contest. Wth.. Okey, 1st and 2nd place were actually the best costumes. But did you see 3rd? Haha, looks like he had taken a swim in some cardboard and stuffed a lamp in there. And what's the deal with females aaaalways doing succubus? It's starting to get so freaking old now. Since there's like 5 of them every year (random number), it looks more desperate for attention, then an actual costume contest.

That's all i have about that for now. I will probably write more as the second day of BlizzCon is tonight. Ozzy concert baby!! Read more

My first youtube vid

The quality got sucky when I uploaded it there, still have to learn the trick :P
Anyway. Here's me running through DM speedy. I usually clear all the mobs since I've got a travelers mammoth and can empty my bags right outside the instance.

The almighty hunter class and me

I wish to talk more about the hunter as a class. Many people get recommended to start off with a hunter when they're new. This is something I think is ridiculous.
Fine, if you know the person you're recommending it to, and think they'll suit well in that class go ahead, but to tell them to start with that class because it's easiest is a bucket of crap!

Sure it may be easy since you've got a pet, so yes, it's easy to level with alone. But when you come to the raiding level people will expect much more of you then just sending in the pet and using auto-shot.

I started as a troll mage, I picked her all by myself because I liked the idea of standing far away sending fireballs. I loved it. But since this was on my bf's account I had to pick something new when I got my own account. Second after mage, I wanted a hunter. So I picked one, and yeah, it was because of the pet.

And so the journey began..

I used a lot of resources to get special pets. Like the cute spotted cat in Darkshore. And considering I'm on a PvP realm and was like below level 20, this turned out to be quite an adventure. Ever since then I've experimented with different pets, and now when the Pet talents came, it just opened a new chapter. No more worries about taming cats with prowl to learn the cat you want prowl and so on. It's all so much easier sadly.. But, taming rare spawns in Northrend have balanced it out a little. I still haven't got the chance to tame one thou.

I'll write more about my annoyance over the new patches when 3.2 comes. Read more
