Yeah, it's right there and all. No point to play the game currently, when a game's release date hasn't even been announced.

?

There's still plenty of reason to play, so your sarcasm wasn't really needed. My point simply was that I don't see the point in going out of your way and stressing over t10 gear when its going to get replaced once Cata launches. We're already in September, and I'm sure it'll be released by the time the year ends.

I don't really like dk's :/

...I'm sorry, but I LOL'd.

Really though you could have done better, or at least I expected better from you.

You are fucking amazing, I lol'd.

I'll be nice and give you my point of you, let's "suppose" cata is released middle november, that's around 10 weeks until there (i assume you are talking about your pally), let's do a quick math about badges in that time frame, just from voa you will get 40 badges (maybe with some luck 1-2 pieces of gear, probably at least 1 251 if you do class run), lets say you do at least 9 bosses in icc10 per week thats 18x10=180 more (hell 1 more additional badge per icc because that trash mob that give 1 frost), so far we have 40+180+10 frosts, let's say you pug at least 4 bosses in icc25 (going the lowest i think a terrible pug should), thats 8x10=80 more badges, 5 more badges per weekly 5x10=50 more, so you in 10 weeks can get 40+180+10+80+50= 360 frosts (i am leaving outside rs and icc weekly) and i think 360 is a low average of what you will get, that's more than enough to get 4 pieces t10 with badges (which you probably won't spend all on them because some luck on voa or a good offspec gear during icc).

Now if you are talking about your priest with your actual gear and a decent group you should be able to kill LK in normal (wow-heroes.com shows some of your gear without enchants, not sure if because you got new gear and haven't have time to enchant it or wow-heroes hasn't updated it?)


Edit: lol i forgot about dailies, thats like 140 extra badges.

[Despain]

I haven't enchanted some of my Priest gear, simply because I haven't played her as much as I've been focusing on Paladin.

[Arcana]

warrior 80 finally, lack of motivation to level is a real killer.

[The Stig]

I is Kingslayer

Some weird fuckups too:

1. A mage who was filling in a spot, who was really cool, his dog ripped out his mouse/keyboard cable during phase 3 ... lots of desperate cries on vent lol
2. After the "cutscene", where it's a freekill, my laptop crashed

During reboot I rang my mate who confirmed I got the achiev lol. I was slightly nervous. Some fist and mace dropped.

As guild is working on heroic bosses now, so far except ship, every other encounter's difficulty/HP spikes up so significantly it makes me wonder if we'll ever down any of the bosses. Although we had missing regulars who's DPS are way higher I still wonder how in the world this will all work out. Except me everyone is 5.8k+ in gearscore.

[Tricen]

Make people read strats = easy kills.

[Shiznicle]

Reminds me of my first LK kill. My game crashed when the cutscene was supposed to start, and by the time I got back in all loot was already distributed (despite me saying on Vent several times that I crashed). I still to this day have no clue what dropped. But for a late Monday night PUG, I was just happy to get my Kingslayer title.

[rithridan]

On my first (and only) LK25 kill, I was watching the bottom of the platform for half the fight. Getting tossed over the edge FTL, it was really stupid too because during that Valkyrie wave we had a defile smack in the middle and were positioned really badly so me and a fury warrior got tossed over the edge. Talk about a boring kill.

[MrSamuels]

If your guild is starting out on the heroics just do the easy ones first to keep the "morale" high, the easy ones are Rotface, Dreamwalker, lolboat, princes (if you know whats going down is a joke really). Depending on your DPS you can probably beat Saurfang and BQL Definitely skip Lady Deathwhisper as she can be the one of the more difficult on heroic even though it is the second boss in. Festergut, Sindra and PP will probably be your cock blocks because it requires people to be actually aware of what is going on and that is difficult apparently.
The biggest threat to guilds at the moment is being burnt out and people wiping all night generally get burnt out quicker, even though i personally like wipe nights. It sounds as though a lot of your guild still is probably using like 251 and 264 mix so switching back to normal on the harder ones isn't too bad since your people will still get gear upgrades making content easier to get down.

inb4 all of ICC is easy etc etc

[Diamicles]

Finally dinged my DK to 80 yesterday. Ran a couple of heroics already, upgraded my sigil to Sigil of Virulence right away. How soon should I look into gear enchantments at this level? Will I need to do it right away or should I wait to upgrade some stuff to heroic level gear?

[The Stig]

I would say Tier 9 (232) gear first, otherwise it's kinda wasted, unless you can't access the gear fast enough:

Head

• [Arcanum of the Stalwart Protector] - Bind on Account from Argent Crusade Revered
• [Mind Amplification Dish] - Engineering only

Shoulder

• [Greater Inscription of the Pinnacle] - Bind on Account from The Sons of Hodir Exalted
• [Lesser Inscription of the Pinnacle] - The Sons of Hodir Honored
• [Greater Inscription of the Gladiator] - 10,000 honor
• [Master's Inscr'+'iption of the Pinnacle] - Inscription Only

Cloak

• [Enchant Cloak - Titanweave] – Enchanting (More avoidance)
• [Enchant Cloak - Mighty Armor] – Enchanting (More EH)

Chest

• [Enchant Chest - Greater Defense] – Enchanting (Avoidance)
• [Enchant Chest - Super Health] – Enchanting (HP)

Bracer

• [Enchant Bracers - Major Stamina] - Enchanting
• [Enchant Bracer - Major Defense] – Enchanting (Avoidance)

[Arcana]

as the stig said, dont waste enchanting mats on anything thats below 232 really since its really easy to get 232 or higher gear from just running heroics for a few hours a day.

[The Stig]

For a DK, get the 4-piece T9 set excluding the helm, get http://www.wowhead.com/item=47678 instead (60 triumphs I think)

For some reason I forgot to include the link where I stole the info:

http://pwnwear.com/forum/tank-gear-list-t142.html

This pretty much is an extensive list of what you should be aiming for, includes T9 gear and upwards

I also recommend Enchanting the hands with threat (+2% threat).

good advice for a DK tank, but what about unholy DPS? Blood tank is my offspec, dps unholy is my primary.

[Tricen]

There were posts in this thread about unholy dps

[The Stig]

Unholy DPS I guess it's impossible to go wrong if you follow this:
