Shamans are only really useful as resto in raids, as elemental and enhance has no threat reduction and mana regen, and their dps is pretty poopy. On any threat-important fight, one (un)lucky streak of windfury can wipe the raid.lapse posted:They were fine for healing, but not as useful as paladins to the raid, hence why you heard about it so much Regence fucked around with this message at Oct 16, 2011 around 17:32 |

Kingtheninja posted:Oh man, this sounds like so much fun. The hard part will be resetting my brain to the way things were way back then. Definitely going to re-install the game for this. I know I should play whatever but is there any need for a certain class or more specifically profession? Play w/e you want but there's a shortage of druids and priests atm. Who knows what there'll be a shortage of later though.

Welp I think me (barry) and gaffe ruined our 'partnership' with the guild formerly known as <YOU MAD> and <BLOODBATH AND BEYOND>, also currently known as <HATE>. Here's the story in all its poopsocking glory. We formed up a raid for Azuregos, and after elite <HATE> warlock Skinnbones kills our main healer by "accidentally" aggroing Azuregos and giving her mark of frost, we have to wait 15 minutes for our first attempt. After yelling multiple times on mumble/raid warning for hunters to dismiss pets (having pets out during this fight will wipe the raid due to mechanics) and stay within 30 yards, pubbie hunters promptly ignore this warning and proceed to wipe the raid. During the subsequent 15 minute wait, me and Gaffe and Someasian ask all people in the raid to get in mumble, and most do, except for two special stars. After I proclaim to the raid that no mumble = no loot, Elite warlock Skinnbones and rogue Dreamercut from <HATE> message me, and demand that they be the exceptions to the no mumble rule. After explaining that they have to get on mumble like the rest of us plebs, Elite warlock Skinnbones decides to hearth. In the subsequent tells (sorry I don't have logs, my chat mod was set to only record tells from guildies and friends for whatever reason), I am told to say goodbye to "number 6 on the damage meters", and that I'm worse than Stalin for not allowing exceptions to the mumble rule. I had no issues with getting the people from <EUROPA> or <BACON STRIPS> getting on mumble, and even had an apology from one who was having issues connecting. After having to read through a tirade from the Lock and the Rogue (who I guess is their leader?), and I explain to them that alienating the only guild that can do 40 man content is a bad thing, elitist warlock Skinnbones comes back into the raid. After both of them once again refuse to get on mumble, and then they even go AFK when it's time to pull, Gaffe decides enough is enough and boots em from the raid mid-pull. All whiny tells to me stop and commence upon him and Someasian, who handled the situation deftly and with class. Nonetheless I'm pretty sure they won't be showing up for future azuregos attempts. I got a lot of tells from embarrassed <HATE> members after the raid, and most of them seem pretty chill guys, so I wouldn't be suprised if a lot of  start showing up soon. Note that both poopsockers in this incident were from noted fat person's guild <YOU MAD>, and joined <HATE> after their previous guild collapsed. I'm sure that the <HATE> leadership won't be happy to know about the burning of bridges their recent spergy acquisitions are engaging in.

Warlocks are usually threat capped before they max out dps, anyways. They're still very useful due to the imp stamina buff though. Regence fucked around with this message at Oct 25, 2011 around 08:59 |

Hey guys, Barry here. The server's better than ever and the raid was really sweet. There's also pvp gear put into the game, and we've been getting our asses stomped by the alliance in WSG all day. Come back and get your asses stomped/stomp their asses for the Horde!
