Ready Check: Brutallus

wowgamezone — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 02:46:37 GMT

"Ready Check is a weekly column focusing on successful raiding for the serious raider. Hardcore or casual, ZA or Sunwell Plateau, everyone can get in on the action and spend thousands of gold on repairs and consumables. This week, a pit lord dies. Brutallus is the second boss in the Sunwell Plateau. A pit lord with swords for hands, he becomes accessible once you've redeemed Kalecgos and killed the two trash packs behind Kalecgos' platform. After watching a short event where Brutallus fights and kills Madrigosa, a blue dragon who you can see taunting him when doing the Dead Scar bombing quest, it's time to face the demon himself. Many people have compared the Brutallus encounter to that of Patchwerk back in Naxxramas; rather than an execution encounter, this is a benchmark fight, and if your raid is low on DPS, your tanks fall short of gear requirements or your healers can't keep up, you'll run into difficulties. The main requirement is extremely high raid dps; with a 6 minute enrage and 10.5 million hitpoints, you're looking at just over 29k raid dps sustained over the entire fight. How much that works out to per DPSer depends on your raid composition, so let's look at what you need to bring for the fight. Position This diagram courtesy of Insomnia on Tichondrius sums up the positioning problem well. The raid arranges itself in a triangle or V, with the two tanks positioned with DPS and healer soak groups around them; everyone needs to stand so that they won't get Meteor Slash when Brutallus is hitting the other tank. Burn spots are behind him, so you won't get a Slash while Burning -- melee can stay put if they're spread out enough. or wow Refreshing your Meteor Slash stacks while you have Burn is a ticket to pain, as the increased fire damage debuff makes the final ticks deadly. The terrain where you fight Brutallus is slightly bumpy, so you might need to adjust positioning a little so the pull works right, but it shouldn't take too long to get everyone standing in the right place.

You can use the crates and cart on the ground to fix your positioning. " "Based on your votes last week for the best piece of anti-advice, congratulations to Eldron for submitting the winning entry: ""Hey everyone! Type /afk list when to see who is afk!"" He wins fame, respect, and ooh and ahhhs from crowds of adoring fans! Eldron's anti-advice won with 28.7% of the votes. When I first saw this piece of anti-advice I have to admit I went and tried it right away. I went in AV and typed in /bg, ""Man... guild wars gold look at all these AFK people."" A few folks responded and agreed with me, annoyed about it. ""Type /afk list and report everyone that comes up, please,"" I say next. I kid you not – 15 people immediately afk'd out. At that point I started getting some pretty hate-filled tells, so I decided to /afk out myself. But nonetheless, I just about died from laughter. lineage 2 adena Of course, this is kind of mean, and just a tad underhanded, but really... sometimes things like this are just too funny to pass up. I tried this again later in a AB match that was going awful, and after I told everyone to type /afk list, someone replied ""Yeah, wow, look at all those people."" He then sent me a tell: ""lol! I've been doing that all day!"" All the people that were dragging us down left the BG, and new ones came in and we won. gold wow So maybe this isn't that bad of advice after all... Tabi said... ""All the people that were dragging us down left the BG, and new ones came in and we won. So maybe this isn't that bad of advice after all..."" Congratulations! You got 15 real live people to afk out of your game.

More room for the bots who don't fall for tricks like this. wow or You should be proud of yourself for giving 15 new players the education they need about assholes in battlegrounds. I'm surprised you didn't pick your nose and show it to them while you were at it. Go back to grade school where you belong. "

Ata'mal Armaments

wowgamezone — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 02:44:41 GMT

" This last quest isn't technically a Phase 4 quest, but rather a quest that appears once you unlock Smith Hauthaa's badge gear in Phase 3. Still, it's worth doing. Not only do you get a good 18 gold or so, but the weapon oil you get is really nice for completing your Isle of Quel'danas dailies or heading into Magister's Terrace or the Sunwell Plateau. Since each bottle has 5 charges, you shouldn't have to worry about running out either. It's also a good excuse to head to Shadowmoon Valley and do a couple Netherwing dailies. I think they could probably stand to up the drop rates on the armaments a bit, and it gets very annoying dodging the Shadowsworn Drakonids, but once you get the swing of it, it's probably worth it for 18 gold and the oil. This is probably more of a superstition thing I my part, but I find if you start at the top of the area instead of the bottom, the armaments seem to drop faster, so I generally just head into the building by the Ata'mal Crystal at the top of the Orc area, kill the four mobs in there, and work my way down the stairs, killing Orcs along the way. Final Thoughts So with Phase 4, we now have a giant smorgasbord of daily quests to do, all with their own individual perks and quirks. In the final analysis, I'd say this aspect of 2.4 has been a roaring success. There's a couple places where spawn rates or drop rates could be tweaked upward a little, but overall, the Sunwell dailies are a nice way to keep busy until WoTLK finally shows up. Except... You're missing the fact that EVERYONE has access to the same resources. Newbies can do the same daily quests as you or me now, unlike the Ogri'la quests which had prerequisites. You also have to realize, anyone could easily make more than 250g in 3 hours just by farming motes and selling them on AH.

My average pace when I was farming was around 150g per hour, which is only slightly under what I'm doing with my optimal dailies path. The only reason why there's more gold coming in now is that the idea of dailies is more enticing to people than farming." "I like this quest because it really rounds out the Greengill coast quite well. or wow You're already headed over there to read a ley line and maybe grab some Darkspine Ore, but now you'll be able to do something with the sirens over there too. This is very nice, because before it was always a pain when I was riding down the coast, only to find myself slowed by a Frostbolt. It always felt like a pain to dismount and smack down the Darkspine Siren in question, but now I can kill them for this quest. world of warcraft powerleveling I very much appreciate that the Orb of Murloc Control appears to be a 100% drop this time around, especially with my previous frustration over the key drops for the Making Ready quest. It did take me 4 orbs to free enough Murlocs to complete the quest the first time that I did it, but I think I might be able to cut that down with a little more practice. Still, I also think they could stand to pack the Murlocs a little tighter, or give the orbs a larger radius. Another thing I noticed on this quest is that the Darkspine Myrmidons seem to be dropping keys a lot more often. wow po I killed about 5 of them in the time it took me to find the sirens for the orbs I needed, and got 3 keys. I don't know if I was lucky, or if they did actually bump the drop rate on the keys at some point, enough that I'm almost willing to retract my complaints on the matter from my previous review.

Whatever it was, Greengill Coast was very lucrative for me. eve isk I think the thing that really seals it for me, and makes me think that this quest will definitely be part of my daily rotation from now, is watching the freed Murlocs rush off to attack the nearest Naga they can find. It's sort of heartwarming to see them take up arms and fight for their freedom - only to be slaughtered mercilessly because the Naga are 10 levels higher than they are, but hey. This quest has made me feel a twinge of sympathy toward Murlocs, which is a miracle in and of itself. wow powerleveling If there's one complaint I could make, it's that the quest giver is initially sort of out of the way, off on a boat in the harbor. If you don't know she's there, you might miss her.

Around Azeroth: The forgotten mariner

wowgamezone — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 02:42:59 GMT

"Apparently, the night elf expedition to Niagara Falls has met a disappointing end. Caedus of Bloodscalp-EU discovered this empty elven boat -- with the lamp still burning -- at the top of the Southfury River. And where is the top of the Southfury River. After a long journey fraught with spider attacks, my shaman discovered that this screenie was taken at the very top of the border between Ashenvale and Azshara, which means that the water is coming down from Mount Hyjal. Caedus wrote, ""I doubt many people have seen it as I can't imagine people enjoying swimming up this river."" You got that right. Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder. We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wowinsider.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next! Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. We prefer full screen shots without the UI showing. And please, no more sunsets. We work better under cover of night. Phase 4 daily quests Phase 4 is now well underway, with about 50 servers having it unlocked according to us.gorgonnash.info at the time of this writing. There's still a few more things to unlock, but for the most part, the Sunwell Isle is complete, and what you see is what you get as far as resources and places to fight. So, once again, it is time to ask the question: How do these quests fit into your busy up-to-25-daily-quests-to-do lifestyle. They fit pretty well, actually! Actually, even before we get to the quests, my favorite part of this phase may very well be that the Isle of Quel'danas is now more or less full service.

Not only do you finally have a place to repair in the form of the unlocked badge vendor, but the newly opened Inn also has a mailbox. wow po It seems like often find my bags overloaded with Motes of Mana, Sunfury Signets, stacks of Netherweave Cloth, and sundry greens by the time I'm done with the island, so being able to send that stuff over to my mule right away is a godsend. At that point, the quests are just icing on the cake, really. Admittedly, it's some pretty tasty icing. wow " "Last night I posted why I feel that the PvE game has been, is, and always will be the real game in WoW. One of the interesting inferences that people made was that I don't like PvP, and that I don't do it. Nothing is further from the truth. guild wars gold It was interesting to read the number of comments on that article, and I think it might surprise some folks that save for this introduction paragraph and a few edits I made, this article was written before I wrote my PvE piece. So, why do I PvP. What attracts me to the PvP game, and why is it a worthwhile thing to do in WoW. There are three primary reasons that PvP is a game worth playing. gold für wow kaufen First, it provides a critical and necessary change of pace from the PvE game. Secondly, it gives those with limited play time an opportunity to enjoy the game and succeed at what they do. Finally, PvP is beginning to turn into a legitimate eSport, and provides some good entertainment there in. wow gold Let's look at each of these reasons individually. A Change of Pace Raiding and playing the same five man instances can get quite boring over time.

Spiritual Guidance: Thirteen dos and don'ts of a raiding holy priest

wowgamezone — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 02:39:39 GMT

"Our Priest column is back! Every Sunday, Spiritual Guidance will offer practical insight for priests of the holy profession. Your host is now Matt Low, the grand poobah of World of Matticus, and this week he has compiled a list that raiding holy priests may find beneficial whether they consider themselves new or veterans. I've raided for a long time on my priest. My first real raid started with Zul'Gurub before I graduated to Molten Core and Blackwing Lair. Unfortunately, I started late in the game to the point where I never really appreciated AQ 40 or Naxxramas. Years later, I am now working my towards Illidan after mopping the floor with Archimonde. It's difficult for a holy priest to begin raiding. The learning curve can be steep at times because there are so many options available. That being said, there are a few lessons I've learned from raiding that have proven universal. They had as much application back then as they do now and I wanted to pass them on to any new budding raid priests. Check out all thirteen tips, from reagents to situation awareness, right after the break. Do over pack on reagents: There are going to be times when you are the only priest in the raid group. You are single handedly responsible for the fort of the entire raid. Having over 1000 additional hit points is a required buffer to have in end game raiding. Being caught without reagents is generally frowned upon by most guilds. Do things without being asked: Don't wait around for players to ask you for fort. The latest raidframe addons display the buffs that you can cast on other players (XPerl, Pitbull, etc). Even if another priest is designated the buffer for that group, save the raid some time and just do it. Reagents cost the same amount as toothpicks anyway.

wow geld If there's a new priest in the raid who is unsure of what to do on the boss, let them in on the MO of the boss (which is lawyer speak for method). Brief them of what to expect as a priest. Do have thick skin: As healers, we are the make or break class in a raid. When anything bad happens, we are the first players that get placed under the microscope and absorb the blame. wow gold I've owned up to my share of mistakes and I'll let you in on a secret. Half of those mistakes were never really my fault. But in the interest of time and progression, I take the blame so that we could get going. wow powerleveling If you don't think you can handle the pressure and the criticism from other classes, then raiding might not be an end game activity for you. Do use consumables regularly: Being a player whose eyes are literally glued to raid frames, it's easy to tell the difference players who use potions early and those who use it late. The point here is that you want to get that cooldown working. The holy trinity of raid consumables consists of Flask of Mighty Restoration, Superior Mana Oil, and Golden Fish Sticks (or Blackened Sporefish, which I prefer). Do ask for help: Whether it's because you're unsure of your assignment or because you ran out of mana, don't hesitate to scream and get attention fast. wow gold verkaufen This is especially true in a raid instance like Mount Hyjal. I have yet to encounter another instance that is more punishing on wipes. If you're not familiar by now, one small mistake can snowball into a wipe in a short amount of time. lotro gold Guess what.

You get to do it all over again.

The Light and How To Swing It: Build you own TTRadin

wowgamezone — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 09:11:27 GMT

"Hi folks, it's me again. Somehow, Liz's computer got unplugged from the Light at the last minute and wiped her draft for this week clean. The task has fallen upon me once to swing the Light and wreak havoc upon these pages with blood and fury. Or something like that. In the wake of the admittedly lackluster (what, no giant GMs or gnome-transfigurations or demons run amuck. ) second take on the TTR stress test, I've decided to write up the experience about making your own Paladin on the Tournament Test Realm, aka the TTRadin. If you haven't logged on to the TTR, now's a good time to download the PTR client and get yourself started. Paladin without the pain If you've never played a Paladin before, the TTR is an excellent way to experience some Paladin goodness without having to go through the entire leveling experience -- some parts of which even self-confessed altaholic and column co-writer Chris Jahosky admits to having a dislike for. Of course, leveling is part of the education process, so don't expect to know all the abilities and talents a Paladin -- or any class you make, for that matter -- right off the bat if you don't have a max-level character of that class on the live servers. That said, making a character on the TTR is well worth the effort and is definitely something any player can use to explore their options. Getting a taste of a max-level character, in our case a Paladin (this is a Paladin column, after all), is something players can learn from. So where do we start. We have the usual racial choices: Human, Dwarf, or Draenei for the Alliance; and Blood Elf for the Horde. Because it isn't a PvP server by definition, you can make an Alliance and a Horde character.

The tournament server also isn't like the live realms in that there are no quests or NPCs aside from the trainers, vendors, and arena representatives. wow gold I haven't explored the tournament realm completely, but it's safe to assume that it's a barren world. The NPCs are all Goblins, by the way, which is a bit unsettling and bizarre. There are few things stranger than seeing little green men and women in full Tier 2. " "15 Minutes of Fame is our look at World of Warcraft players of all shapes and sizes – both the renowned and the relatively anonymous. If you want to hear a sad song about a lack of bag space, just talk to a hybrid or tank-capable class. Those guys are lugging around three or more sets of gear, plus variations – it's enough to bust a Foror's Crate of Endless Resist Gear Storage wide open. (Yeah, we know you wish you had one of those; we do, too.) We talked with a player who definitely has storage issues, but from a little different perspective: Rattleshirt of Uldaman, who displays her finery not in raid instances or battlegrounds but on the catwalk. Some players think vanity gear is a ridiculous waste of bank and bag space. wow power level Not Rattleshirt. When Rattleshirt decided to transfer realms not too long ago, she had to pare down to five full packs – yes, that's five full packs – from her existing 90-something ensembles. She had so many outfits that she began giving impromptu fashion shows in Orgrimmar every night before logging out, complete with audience requests for particular rare robes. We snagged a backstage visit with Rattleshirt to find out, well, what all the rattle is behind her many shirts.
