Now, it probably needed a buff considering I'm critting Shield Slams in excess of 4500 but really? Really?

A friend of mine from work has a tank in his guild who crits with shield slam for 8k. They've down Kil'Jaden and such, but still. Wow.

8k is theoretically possible right now but you'd need access to every single block piece in the game and to construct a set sacrificing every other form of utility but SBV. At 80 when everybody's kicking Impale I would expect the norm for blueberries to start around crits for 6k and go up from there.

But yeah, Fury. All they need to do now is make Rend usable in Berserker stance so it can be the new Spamstring (initial damage is now 50% weapon damage + 7.5% AP as damage) and I'll be ready to say it's way more OP than it ever was when Titan Grip had no penalty.

Wait, what? Rend does instant damage now?

Pacobird · « **Reply #204 on:** October 22, 2008, 05:20:53 PM »

Rend has done instant damage from the start of TBC, though not enough to make it worthwhile. They've buffed that instant damage in the most recent Beta build to the point where it would be rage-efficient as an instant attack if Slam hadn't been buffed even more.

However, since Imp Slam is no longer attainable in a dw Fury build, you could definitely justify using Rend as a tertiary DPS instant if it were stance-agnostic.

This is the single greatest world event in the history of ever.

Blues are hinting that zombies are going to get stronger, and the disease harder to deal with. I'm rather looking forward to this, the Azerothian zombie apocalypse.

Myself and a crew of five other zombies started off in nethergarde, swept up to Stonard, then through darkshire, before finally getting creamed by the Stormwind superguards.

The zombies managed to get spread to Shattarath on my server, and attacked the Flight Master. The flight master responded by summoning, no joke, 30 enraged wyverns. Needless to say, the zombies died, but everyone in Shattarath moved about 20 frames slower.

BC Dungeonmaster! A few Heroics. Caught 300 fish. Vaporized a gnome doing the same in Org. Engineering 123.

177 Achievements!

Also man Elemental is balls out ridiculous but after exalting with Mag'Har(which took no time as Enh) I'm back to Resto! In a world of double DPS specs, only one man dared to heal them all in battlegrounds!

QUICKMANSOME REPORT TO YOUR TASKMASTERS THAT I GOT MY SINISTER SQUASHLING AFTER 8 DROPS AND ONLY BECAUSE THREE OTHER PEOPLE IN MY GROUP ALREADY HAD IT! GOD DAMN.

Also I got a Hallowed Helm in an Innkeeper Trick or Treat and thus I am grateful that it wasn't HH specific or I'd still be running this cocksucker for the next 9 days.

Do achievements give you anything other than a bigger number of points?

Doom · « **Reply #210 on:** October 23, 2008, 06:56:20 AM »

Titles and Tabards and unique mounts and pets.

So... bigger numbers of points.

Envy · « **Reply #211 on:** October 23, 2008, 11:38:35 AM »

Fat mounts ensued today, did HH got horsemans reigns, did stratholme for the achievement and since im close to exalted...and the baron mount dropped got that too.. Zg tonight for fun...will this be a mount night.

Doom · « **Reply #212 on:** October 23, 2008, 11:55:19 AM »

To be fair it took me 40+ kills, 7 failed rolls and the absolute BEST POSSIBLE CIRCUMSTANCES POSSIBLE to win one on the 8th drop. I'm fairly certain that if the first two guys didn't already have a Squashling, I'd be calling you a stupid cocksucker right now.

Hell, from 40+ kills, I've never SEEN the Hallowed Helm on Horseman.

Not so much that Achievements are Serious Business as DUMB LUCK can kiss my ass. Like, there is a Children's Week Achievement to get all three pets from the Outlands Matron, and I have none on my Shammy. I'm fine with that. It's just one of those things.

But that Squashling and those rolls... fffffffffff

Nice thing I got it, eh?

I'm a bit put off by the insane amount of time and effort that was put into this system. I better not see any palette swapped pvp gear again, that's all I'm saying.

Nah, they're sticking to their guns on that one. New arena sets are unique and look pretty nice, if a bit more utilitarian and less crazy-jewels-and-spines-everywhere than the equivalent PvE gear.

Meaning they look like actual pieces that would be used in an arena.

Looks like they're incorporating the old Scourge Invasion stuff into the build-up to Wrath! Fuck-awesome.

Royal☭ · « **Reply #218 on:** October 25, 2008, 01:29:47 PM »

Hey, they never seem to note this but at what point did the rogue's stealth actually become NotStealth?

Doom · « **Reply #219 on:** October 25, 2008, 01:34:36 PM »

I have noticed that I can actually catch rogues before they insta-gib me through my 45% physical damage reduction since the patch.

Wondering if they did a quiet fix to universal stealth perception after mucking about with Human Racials.
