Death Grip

[ruinednet]

Wow has the death grip on me, to be sure. But last night was very cool, with us taking down Sappiron and Kel'Thuzad for the first time. I have really enjoyed Naxxramas, and I'm glad that Blizzard retooled it for us not-so-hardcore gamers. (It's also refreshing to be a pure damage dealer and not healing

The new Naxx really is fun. John's dragged me through pretty much all of WoW's content, but I wasn't ever really that into wiping 45 times per night to get a boss down, so I like the break from the insanity, too. What class are you playing now?

I've been playing my rogue, pretty much the only levelled rogue in guild at the moment.

I'm Combat, which I've always liked, but now that I've picked up Omen of Ruin and Knife of Incision, I really need to try out a Mutilate build.

Ooh, you have some really nice gear, too! I'm afraid I don't know much about rogue specs... I'm enjoying realizing that now that I use 2-handed weapons, you guys aren't my mortal enemies when it comes time to divvy up the loot anymore, though. I'm still playing my fury warrior: http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Cenarion+Circle&n=Clannagh

She's old, but I love her anyway.

Grats on all the raiding stuff! Very cool that you're getting to see things.

As a rogue, have you tried HAT at all? It may not be quite as powerful with just one rogue. We have 3 and it has our rogues pushing 7k dps on patchwerk. Those would be perfect weapons for it.

Hmmm...yeah I'm really not sure if it'll be as good as with 2+ rogues in the group....

Yeah, so take that witha grain of salt until you have more then 1 rogue in your group, then stack all the hunters and rogues in a group, have the Rogue go HAT and go to town!

.....the raid leader in me wwants to help and suggest changes to thing....please ignore me, but if you want a hand at all with enchants or gem choices lemme know.

Its like a disease, i cant help myself. Sorry.

Heh heh. Yeah, I know there are a few things that need to happen. I had to restore the chest piece, as I lost it somehow, and haven't gotten the stats replaced. But I'm being diligent, acquiring/making what gear I can and getting all of the available improvements. I'm at the Expertise cap and looking at my hit cap (over for yellow, but under for poison). Once we get to the point where we're making abyss crystals, I'll get berserking, etc. It's crazy. Feel free to make recommendations, but realize I'm still working on it.

And I've read about HAT on Elitist Jerks, but given that we aren't big enough to do 25-mans, it really won't be viable. I'm a big fan of Combat, and usually second only to the Hunter (when is that nerf coming?!?). That said, I'm probably going to try out mutilate to see if I can ramp it up further.

I figure all of the pent-up rage at being a holy priest for years has it's advantages...

durr....read this new years eve, and said, I'll reply later.

Then totally forgot.

You're right about 10 mans, I incorrectly thought 25 mans, fuck hat for 10 mans unless you run a crazy group with 2-3 rogues. On that note, I misthought about your hit, cause I forgot about precision or whatever its called for rogues (hit talent).

Only thing I guess I'd suggest is icewalker to boots instead of stam. Unless you're having problems dying or something.

you're right though, looks really good. I see you got the 25 man chest! Grats, now you need to ninja yourself some 25 man weps!

[ruinednet]

Thanks man! Yeah, we pretty much took over a pug yesterday that still had 4 bosses + Sapph/Kel. That was a nice upgrade for me. And yeah, Icewalker. I had that on some previous boots and must have forgotten when I upgraded to the current ones.
