“just stabbing away” is as annoyingifying as couple weeks ago’s tanks “just standing there”.

Got me first look at Lord Ham on Rhyolith last night. I don’t thinks the bugger what did the animation and the bugger what did the hit box fer them legs was even on the same planet.

Personally, I’d like fer ta see more bosses summon flyin’ glubbernuggin’ monkeys and shout “that one! the one in the back wearing a dress and shooting fireballs!” Easier ta see whatfuhg is goin’ on and less worryin’ about cleaves and whirlwinds’d be nice too, but the monkeys would be the most fun.

Well, it was definitely an experience, and it wasn’t a pleasant one (as the Better Business Bureau will soon find out). We were fortunate enough to have a fellow raider provide us with an employee ID# that sent us directly to their Make-It-Right department, but even that process still took forever. We ended up with Business Class service because the Residential area still can’t figure out that our area is serviceable; additionally, the Business Class service has a few performance guarantees that should ensure everything moves along smoothly (now).

Still! I’ll definitely go and take a look at that link, just in case. Thanks!

Thanks! Hopefully everything will be updated a lot more often now.

I keep hearing horror stories about ComCast. Consumerist is a constant source of Comcastic stories like that. They may also have some helpful hints on expediting things, should something get further screwed up. (http://consumerist.com/)

Anyway, welcome back to the digital domain.

Comment on Strength, how does it work? More punching, less scratching in 4.2. by Runycat

I don't think that any player particularly likes change, especially if that change requires rethinking, retuning, or re-gearing, but it's one of those things you really just have to roll with if you want to keep playing at the level you're accustomed to. Fortunately, I don't think that these changes are going to necessitate a lot of re-gearing or re-gemming; most druids have been socketing exclusively for AGI and re-forging for mastery. In fact, if you happened to use any Deft Ember Topaz to pick up socket bonuses, you may be in a better place in 4.2 than you were in 4.1. Regardless! Do I understand the shift to haste (for direct damage) over mastery (for bleeds)? Well, no. Not really. It seems a little half-thought to put us cats at odds with Razor Claws, but bleeds will still be important. It'll just require a little more fine-tuning to find the appropriate balance.

I am glad about the strength nerf, now I won’t even be tempted to take an ilvl weapon upgrade that has strength in 4.2

I don’t like the fact that lower AP and buffs to direct attacks might have me favoring haste over mastery.

I don’t like that in BC haste sucked, than in Wrath ArP was king and then taken away, then in Cata mastery was king and now we might want haste. WTF? Bleeds, no bleeds, bleeds, no bleeds… ugh.

Charts make me feel approximately fifty-three percent smarter than I actually am. I had to go and screw around with my stylesheet just to get them to display in something smaller than size fucknormous font.

So thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed.
