Armor pen is not a bad stat per se, but we benefit less from it then hit/crit/attack power/haste. I have a couple pieces of gear with armor pen and it's not the worst thing.
Got my DK up to level 68, and just realized that I don't have to wait until level 70 to pick up the Tome of Cold Weather Flying. Win.
Hearing about PUGs on Mal'ganis makes me want to cry. I leveled a priest to 80 because I wanted to have an alt to heal heroics with, but PUGs on Azshara are horrible. Almost every H ToC has someone in greens. If they're not in greens they're in full iLvl219 H ToC epics with every gem slot empty, no professions, zero enchants. Moonkin rolling against my priest for mp5 gear because "it's got crit on it". People standing in poison clouds wondering why my priest isn't cleansing. FFS it's horrible.
I'm going to "finish" my priest by getting another piece of t9 and a couple of other upgrades and then retire him. Sad.

My server Borean Tundra is just as bad. I don't think the top guild on our server could outperform a pug from Argent Dawn, my original wow home.
Probably gonna transfer soon.
TomServo said:
just bite the bullet and xfer to a high pop server man
on my server horde side ppl pug pretty much everything in game successfully, naxx, os, eoe, ulduar 10/25, voas, ony 10/25, toc 10/25, toc 10m heroic
u can find toc 10/25 pugs pretty much every night, some vary in quality obviously
heroic dungeon grps are funning 24/7, and most grps are geared out so the runs are retarded easy

I've thought about it, just have a RL friend that I raid with and he likes low pop. He's a rogue that loves to gank people, you'd think he'd have a field day on a high pop PvP server, go figure.
Guild has also calmed down a lot lately. We had some key threatening to /gquit, think the guild leadership realized the negativity needed to be toned down. It's funny now, on progression fights (currently heroic Twins, 20% or so) we'll have long periods of silence in raid chat / Vent, and you know there's some shit going down in the officer channel.
Also had some total assclowns faction transfer, join up, and ragequit after one night of progression wiping. That kind of solidified the guild core a bit, especially when one transfer was very public about his ragequitting (posting chat logs, vent convos, etc on the realm forums - total backfire though, got him blacklisted, he'll be transferring off the server soon).

So the servers and forums are both down right now, I assume it's until the usual time?
On a side note, has anyone ever heard of the game forcing 16-bit color mode before? It's a bit odd but not quite annoying enough for me to put any effort into fixing it.

In so few words, fuck that shit.Yasser said:
The only time they are anything other than flat out faceroll easy and time-sinky is when the tank, healer and other 2 DPS are bad, but they are still do-able in that case if I do enough DPS on my own. That is still not fun.
I had to deal with the joys of the only Paladin tank in existence that consecrates once a fight and then doesn't chase after the adds he hasn't built aggro on in Heroic Violet Hold. We were piecing it together because our healer was great, but it got way too annoying there since he was also a skinner and so was about 10 seconds late to get to the next portal and the DPS just kinda had to hang back and do nothing. First time I've ever actually seen the prison integrity drop:/

What happens if it goes to 0? Just auto-fail? :lolTamanon said:
If I have a tank that misses mobs, I usually just hit them with a Death Coil and make them run over to me. If he doesn't notice by then and I end up dying, taunt him mercilessly.

Well, to be fair, Unholy DK puts out a serious amount of AoE DPS, which can make it pretty hard for Warriors to pick up everyone. Generally, I just do it anyways because there's only two things that usually happen; a) all the mobs die because it's a heroic, or b) it's a raid and the Tank is good enough to keep track.
It's worth it to go faster.

Thanks for the Shaman info GAF. I've never really played one very far, and mechanically they are quite unique. Makes me feel rather sorry for ele shammies actually, I've known about their itemisation problems for a while but I hadn't really considered how bad their raid-buff scaling is. Seems like a class that will benefit considerably when intellect = spellpower.
Ugh, that sucks. I healed a pally in there the other day who was a good tank but just didn't seem to know the fights. Everyone but a hunter and I died on the kiting boss because he didn't kite him, saying that he wanted to try his luck.
Honestly I think the bigger problem there and lately is that I keep grouping with guild dps and pugging a tank. Trouble with that is that it means the dps is geared and the tank is often a fresh 80. It's not the tank's fault, but a fresh 80 is going to struggle to hold things when the rogue is pulling 6k dps on the quiet pulls. I've used guardian spirit on more hunters and rogues recently than I'd care to admit.

Full T10 for DK's revealed with helm.

Glyph of Eternal Water - Your Water Elemental is now permanent, but can no longer cast freeze.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaat.
I love how many different play styles the Mage class has. All three trees are DPS, but it really does feel like 3 different classes.

Shadow Priest changes are pretty much the most straight up buffs w/o nerfs I've seen Blizzard try in a long time :lol
Shadow:
Priest
* Improved Devouring Plague: This spell now deals 10/20/30% of its total periodic effect instantly, up from 5/10/15%.
* Shadowform: This talent also now causes Devouring Plague, Shadow Word: Pain, and Vampiric Touch to benefit from haste. Both the period length and the duration of these spells will be reduced by haste. In addition, the mana cost has been reduced from 32% to 13% of base mana.
* Vampiric Embrace: This ability is now provides a 30-minute buff that cannot be dispelled, instead of a target debuff.
Glyphs
* Glyph of Mind Flay now Increases the damage done by your Mind Flay spell by 10% when your target is afflicted with Shadow Word: Pain.
* Glyph of Shadow Word: Pain changed to - The periodic damage ticks of your Shadow Word: Pain spell restore 1% of your base mana.
* Glyph of Shadow now increase your spell power by 30% of your spirit for 10 sec. (Up from 10%)
It doesn't sound like a lot, but most Shadow Priests are carrying a reasonable amount of haste anyways to fit the correct amount of Mind Flays while casting MB on CD, and usually running three dots at once.

Other changes (of which many were already known):
Warlock: Soulstone CD and duration of buff reduced to 15 min.
Druid: Rebirth - Cooldown lowered to 10 min.
All party members may now mark Raid Targets.
Nameplates will no longer "fight" to sort themselves, but instead overlap. Don't know how good that is, given it's hard enough to try and target certain mobs in huge groups. However, the range at which nameplates appear has been greatly expanded.
Death Knights:
Unholy
* Scourge Strike has been revamped - An unholy strike that deals 50% of weapon damage as Physical damage plus 400 (Shows as 40000 in the tooltip but I'll assume it's a typo). In addition, for each of your diseases on your target, you deal an additional 25% of the Physical damage done as Shadow damage.
* Unholy Blight now deals 10% of the damage done by Death Coil over 10 sec. (Down from 20%)
:-\
The "idea" is to bring Unholy's rotation back to being identical to Blood and Frost's. Which sucks. I like Unholy's rotation. It feels different than Blood does; if I'm just spamming SS x infinite, it's just going to feel like playing the other two specs.

Its an effort to kill off shadowfrost 10 second unholy spam specs, rather than the accepted 20 second based specs.Angry Grimace said:
Oh and:
# Item - Death Knight T10 DPS Relic (Obliterate, Scourge Strike, Death Strike) - Your Obliterate, Scourge Strike, and Death Strike abilities grants 73 Strength for 15 sec. Stacks up to 5 times.
# Item - Death Knight T10 Tank Relic (Runestrike) - Your Rune Strike ability grants 44 dodge rating for 15 sec. Stacks up to 5 times.
HOT!

I was unaware anyone in Unholy was doing 20 second specs any more. Scourge Strike on live sucks too much to be doing 20 sec. rotations.Xabora said:
Normal rotation is IT PS SS BS BS DC (HoW) DC in Improved Unholy Presence (unless you have 200+ haste)
Repeat until dead. If the changes go live, you're talking 30 sec. rotations comprised mostly of SSx∞

I guess I just think that 10 sec. rotations are more fun and much less complex than the ridiculous intended 30 sec. one.
It will be 30 because if you aren't refreshing your diseases EVERY rune cycle, you probably have to take all the disease timer maxing talents + SS glyph (which gives you 9 more sec.)
