Oh I know.

why is there such a thing as improved blood tap build for frost DK? isnt that kinda dumb considering blood tap is absolutely useless for frost since all of our blood runes already permanently converted into death runes via passive ability?

Instant restoration of one of the runes can still help

Has anyone had to have an authenticator removed from one's account? I'm wondering how long I should expect to wait.

Improved disease duration effectively saves you an Unholy rune every 30 seconds. The improved blood tap build instead gives you a free generic rune every 30 seconds, assuming you remember to use it. Seems like a wash to me, unless I'm missing something.

Is there anything useful I can do with an Eye of Sulfuras as Hunter? Minus selling it to an NPC for 20g, that is.

I'm pretty sure you need to equip it to get the FoS, so probably nothing you can use it for.

**Petitssk** · 2012-05-13 15:30

Yikes, guess so. Think I'm gonna keep it in my bank anyway, just in case, thank you!

If you care about such things, you can earn your guild the achievement just by having it in your bags.

More of a Battle.net account question, but I wasn't sure where to post it.

I noticed there are 2 WoW1 and 2 SCII-1 accounts along with my regular WoW account, what are those?

Not sure why but they bother me.

**Meph** · 2012-05-14 23:59

normal and PTR-accounts I assume?

**Bilopdop** · 2012-05-15 01:45

Ah, one is a PTR account.

I don't even own Starcraft II, not sure why there are any accounts for that.

In an oblit build yes, it's basically a wash, although perfectly used imp blood tap does win by a tiny, tiny bit.

In masterfrost, the only thing you're really using unholy runes for is to prevent time when you're sitting doing nothing, so imp blood tap = extra howling blast = win, no contest.

**Clash Perez** · 2012-05-15 08:52

I've been thinking of trying Masterfrost now that I'm more comfortable with DK in general, but right now it seems like Masterfrost is going to die in 5.0 while the Oblit build seems largely intact. I'd rather not rewire that part of my brain only to have to switch it back in a few months... I don't know!

**Plow** · 2012-05-15 08:59

it takes 10 minutes on a dummy and maybe half a raid to figure it out

theoretically you should be understanding and exercising most of the basic concepts of it anyway, it's just taken to their logical conclusion and optimizing for the fact you can go full mastery and stay gcd capped

I'm missing the kologarn and razorscale achievements for the old ulduar 25 meta. I'm sure I can manage kologarn solo, but could the razorscale one be soloable by a lock (or at all?)

**The Stig** · 2012-05-19 14:32

Holding that much 25m trash and having her breathe on you is really too much for a cloth user with limited recovery abilities in my opinion.

You might be able to solo it over multiple attempts if you just keep doing 1 or 2 at a time. Kill most things so they don't hurt you as much then get puffball to hold them and then breathe, wipe, try again (wiping is optional but I would imagine your survival isn't too much)?

**fantasticdan** · 2012-05-19 14:48

Well I should be able to hold a fair amount of trash with pet and improved health funnel as demo, but I really have no idea how the encounter works to be honest. Do I need to use the turrets or anything to get her to breath the adds?
