this.
I've gone farther in pugs than I have with the pos guild im in.
kick out a shadow priest arv

holy shit whisper me or something

we only have 1 shadowpriest honestly, wouldn't mind at least 1 more priest in general.

:O PvP server!

I've never been on a PvP server before. What can I expect at lvl 80? >.> (Possibly lvling from 75-80, depending on what character I transfer.)

the ganking is really not that bad, honestly. if you are horde, you will severely outweigh alliance here too. we pretty much dominate the server

What enchant do most Protadins use? I'm seeing a 50/50 Split between Mongoose and Blade Warding with everyone I ask. Then theres that one dude with blood draining.

Edit: Weapon wise if you didn't catch that, sorry.

Accuracy > all for bosses, lifeward is badass for trash, it can proc on all hits of hammer.

I applied to your guild haha
Intuitionxi, I'll whisper you in game though, whats your char name?

I much prefer shadow, but i've also got a pretty decent set of disc gear based off my shadow set ;p

So my DK is level 71 and I'm again tempted to dual-spec a plate wearer to get more group invites. What's a solid DK tank build assuming not-so-great gear for tanking 70-79 instances?

[Korietsu]

Pretty much cant go wrong with taking the basic 5/5/5 and going up the trees from there grabbing threat/tanking talents.

[Blarg]

Is there no lockout for regular dungeons (regular toc in particular) and do you have to reset instances before you can redo it after you already completed it once?

[Keria]

Limit is 5 resets an hour for normal dungeons iirc, and yes you have to step out and reset ToC like all others.

the only "lockout" regular instances have is you can only enter 5 times in an hour. Since ToC is so short, we've had that happen a few times. XD

and yes you have to reset it each time, even if you finished it.

does rogue leveling ever get better? it's at 24 now and feels like a pain in the ass. If i dont stealth EVERY mob and start with garrote it feels like i barely survive, and energy management is ass. Please tell me it gets easier later on.

[Maimed]

Leveling Warlock is by far the easiest solo, imo.

Cheap Shot is 2 levels away, and shit gets easier from there.

[Norellicus]

Yeah CS blows rogue wide open, stick it out till then.

Yeah I saw that, mostly wondering which 9 skill points to live without since my DK's only 71. I guess the most logical place would be bladed armor/2h spec and keep 1 point in scent of blood.

[Tricen]

Scent of blood looks bad. Like, really bad... My tank spec is blood, but it's kinda bad for AoE threat, so frost might be better. Ravenous dead for the 3% str boost for avoidance, or unholy command for faster death grips might do you better.

[Noobta]

Can orcs do the BE 1-6 area?

[Meph]

yeah, put out the blood talents last.

and yeah tri, Im starting to lean towards skipping scent of blood.
running with Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft atm, but I find myself capping out 100 RP alot and having to break rotations with extra frost strikes just to not waste RP.
I might try 2/2 unholy command and 1 lichborne instead. I guess I should try it and see if Im still good on RP

[Norellicus]

Scent of Blood is kind of "what else are you going to put it in" from what I can tell, plus ensuring you're never short on RP is nice (do DKs generate RP when hit like Warriors' Rage does? I don't pay attention and don't tank with mine)

Though I suppose you could put the points in Virulence, extra hit is always nice.

[Meph]

as far as I can tell we do get RP on hits, but it might be that I just proc alot of SoB while mobs are ganging up on me.

virulence is another valid option since you can just stop stacking hit after you are yellow/white capped. Im abit over the cap and I very very rarely miss IT (which is the only "magic" attack you use while boss-tanking, and Ive never missed with IT/HB on 70/71+ mobs)

Just re-iterating that my DK is 71, and 3% str boost will add 0.15% to parry and that's it. If SoB is only marginal for threat I'll take the damage multiplier from 2h spec instead.
