Hrm. I must just have bad luck then. I've completed 15 NE Commons 1 Rare, and working on another Rare now. Compared to 6 Common Fossils completed working on my first Rare now.

I flew over to Eastern Kingdoms because I saw two available fossil spots and it seems to have turned out nicely. Each one keeps opening another. At 57/85 for my little Fossilized Hatchling. Opposite luck?

What is the Pyromaniac bug?

1 point in Pyromaniac gives you 5% Haste no matter if you have DoTs on 3 targets or not, and still gives 10% haste when DoTs are ticking on 3 targets. So passively you get 5% Haste from pyromaniac bug + 5% from raid buff + 3% from netherwind presence which puts you over the cap for haste.

Some mod authors are being dicks and only releasing 'beta' or 'unstable' versions of their addons, despite the fact that they work just fine. You have to enable a preference in the curse downloader to see unstable/beta versions of addons.

All right, I'll try that. Thanks.

Is there an addon that I can use to save my talent specs since I'm constantly changing mine, and preferably keybinds? Annoying spending 10/20mins everyday changing my specs around.

[Correction]

wowhead's talent calculator can be used for this purpose

click the 'Use it ingame!' link and you get a /run script when you're looking at an untalented character's trees. Just save bookmarks to the builds you use and you're fine. You are completely on your own for glyphs though I doubt those can be changed around in any automated fashion.

This is probably a very.. personal preference question I'm going to ask but thought hey why not >_> Was wondering what you guys would consider one of the more fun classes to level via BGs? Considering, I already have a druid, shaman, paladin and hunter close to 85.

[Correction]

Too bad you already have 85 hunter, they rape rape rape low level BGs like there's no tomorrow.

I assume you're in a level 10 guild? Got your BoA cape yet?

[Tidy]

Rogues. Go sub.

Premed>Shadowstep>Ambush>Evis. One shots ANY CLASS(even plate, with the exception of prot pallies) 20-77.

[Falisa]

Yeah I leveled a rogue to 30 when ambush was wtfpwn right after 4.0 patch came out :O but god damn they're so boring to level between the times im too low level for bgs (30-35 for example)

I got a hunter to 20 with the aim of just leveling it up from BGs for fun but just dont have it in me to level the same class twice. Hunters were the only class low level that annoyed me on rogue.

Maybe I'll pull the rogue out again.. it is fun faceraping people with full heirlooms.

[Eaglestrike]

So I'm guessing you don't know that BG's are every 5 levels now? 30-34 is a bracket, 35-39 is a bracket, 40-44 is a bracket, etc. Starting at 10-14.

[Tomino]

Is a itemlv 330 character with mixed blues from 5man drops and quest rewards *really* ready to start doing HCs?
Dungeon finder says I do, but I dont want to condamn my group to a series of wipes.

The only real alternative would be to spam normal runs for exalted reputations but that would take a huge amount of time, so I was wondering.

[Falaras]

Gear only matters for bads in heroics, if you know your rotation and don't stand in shit it really doesn't matter because you will out DPS the ilvl 350 BM hunter chain casting steady shot.

Edit: If you are still worried, just Gem/Enchant all your shit and you will be fine.

No shit? well damn that will make leveling rogue alot more fun.

[Tidy]

You can also queue for AV at like..35..or something and EotS earlier..or something. I can't remember.

WSG and AB start at level 10. EotS comes in at 35. AV and Random BG comes in at 45. Random BG gives you the weekend bonus rate the whole time.

Problem is you can only queue for one BG at a time. Which is shitty, but whatever.

Ungeared healer might have trouble if they a subpar party, but dps can get away with it easily. Tank too.

I went into heroics as soon as my holy priest hit the i329 mark. And mostly wipes were due to people not knowing the fights well enough. As fal said, if you gem/enchant everything you'll be fine.

[Aksannyi]

Same here. Most of my deaths at that point were just not knowing. Do the dungeons on normal though if you haven't already, that helped me a lot. I am an enchanter so I just kept my gear enchanted (which also helped me skill up) and I have done fine.

Exactly why an ungeared healer (one who cheated his ilvl) might see a lot more unsuccesful heroic than a good but undergeared dps/tank.

[Tricen]

What do DK tanks usually do for a rotation for heroics or in general? Keep diseases and scarlet fever up and DS when your shield is down or you need some heals? I have lichborne+DC macrod too. I specced tanked and tanked a regular and I didn't really eeel a grove for it, wasn't sure if I was doing things right or not. Do I have IBF for when I am getting my shit pushed in?
