Scaling. The game is quickly turning into Sunwell again.

Yep. Our rotation and damage scales really poorly as the gear level goes up compared to a lot of other classes. We might not be the worst, but we're up there. GC has said they have plans to fix these things, but I'm not exactly holding my breath. =/

Its at the point where I"m honestly strongly considering leveling my Lock and gearing it out quickly. Back in Sunwell Spriests were a good 30% below the top DPS (1.4k DPS or so avg on Brut, average bad melee could pull 2k). But we brought overpowered buffs; VT returned somewhere close to 400 MP5 to your group, and Imp VE was a shit ton of healing on all Sunwell fights. Our utility made up for our DPS.

Now at WoLK our utility has been destroyed, we're no better than any other Replenishment/Misery class. This was supposed to be made up with our DPS, we are supposed to be only 5-10% below top DPS. At Naxx levels the difference was negligible, but as melee/Locks/Hunters started getting gear upgrades in Ulduar and buffs, we're back to the same point. On Algalon 25 last week I pulled 5k DPS, top I've seen any SPriest pull on Alg parsers is 5.2k. Meanwhile DKs, Warriors, Rogues, and Hunters cap at around 7.5k, even as high at 7.8-8k. That's still 30%. We're worse off atm than we were in Sunwell, and its depressing.

Do like I did, reroll OP disc. Also authenticating @ 2mins before raid.

Already have 3 solid healy priests lol. Palin is better off going lock...like he should've done when WotLK came out.

[Dezzimal]

One thing I forgot to mention is that the other misery class is moonkin and they output less dps than a shadow priest does. Spriest should not be something want to use more than one of in a raid much like ret/enh/moonkin, most guilds already bring multiple healing-type priests to the raid as they stack quite readily. Filling a raid with 4 or more of one class is a little ridiculous.

[Norellicus]

Er, you must have some bad moonkins, or I've seen some exceptional ones then...there's one in our 25s who sustains 5~5.7k on most non-gimmicky fights, can peak 7~8k on stuff like XT.

We have 3 amazing Spriests on our roster. Some of our best players, just the class isn't at where it needs to be atm.

Still made Vezax/Mim/Yogg/Thorim a lot easier, but hurts on Alg/Council/etc.

Grim toll doesn't exist. It just doesn't.

Defender's code on the other hand, can go to the 9th circle of hell.

1vs1 a resto druid with 23-25K hp won't ever die... ever...! (won't even run out of mana dam jumping bastards)

We've never recruited a good moonkin Always sup-par DPS, WTB a decent one!

Honestly anyone + a tree and you're fucked. They can keep themselves and anyone else up for ages. Only time i can kill one is 1 on 1, and it's because i have a stun, an interrupt, and a silence. Me (unholy DK) and my GL, a tree, killed 6 ally with pure ease. pally, hunter, lock, priest dk and a war. Totally destroyed them all.

If its 2 vs 2 in a BG I got a chance if the other guy does decent.. damage of some sort or healing or some form of CC like silence/stun. I've gotten explosive shot to hit pretty dam hard through resilience!

oh and I had a BG last night with 4 resto druids.. all 4 were over 20K hp, and made a sort of circle at the GY, that was the gayest/longest BG ever ;/

[[Cookies]]

Off-tank dying 3 times in a row (we had two druids!) because the retard assigned as his healer decides he'd rather raid heal instead. His excuse was that he didn't know who the off-tank was, despite the fact we'd gone over everything prior to the fight. We then proceeded to wipe at Ignis' trash because the off-tank died, yet again.

What more can you expect from a PUG? I seriously need to find a semi-decent guild and get off this scrub server.

[Bardlet]

Apparently no VoA pugs- 10 or 25- want a competent, well-geared Disc Priest. Still haven't gotten those pants ticketed to me from last week- I really think the little shit warlock didn't bother to put the ticket in. Oh yeah, and when the tier 8 leg token dropped last night, I rolled an epic 1. (Ironically, a warlock won the roll. I am seeing a theme developing for me now.) *sigh*

bought a pack of cards, and what do i see? El Pollo Grande!!!

...but no code underneath him, GDI.

I 1/1'd mine :/. Some thing with my Aesir's Edge :<

So looking at MMO-Champion and the tier loot. Am I to believe that we will need to run 25man each week over and over JUST to collect enough emblems to GET our tier loot instead of a token system? If this is true, Aion is looking better and better...

[Norellicus]

hardmodes will give tokens looks like, normal modes will just give badges...but I get the impression you're getting 4 badges a boss in teh coliseum? So that's 40/week if you do 10 and 25, possibly more on hardmodes, plus 14 more for heroic daily...you can basically guarantee one piece of 232 a week that way.

And no more tokens dropping for people who don't need em either. And EVERY raider gets the badges, so EVERY raider gets the loot...it seems pretty win-win.

Don't forget though that 1 boss is released every week. So that's 10 weeks before we see the last boss put in.

If 4 drop from 25man bosses that won't be too bad. But if it sticks with only 2 dropping it would be more benefiting to just running a daily heroic every day, which imo is retarded.
