Hidoi Wants some action!

So I am just a few bars from 70 and staying here until I am given a good reason to level uop, otherwise I'm racking it up in the BG's so I can get some honor gear. Since I am a moment's away from 70, I am starting to look for a arena team. I'd love to be in a good 5vs5 arena team so I'm looking for teammates or made teams that need a Mortal strike warrior. (I plan on respeccing) Anyone else interested in arenas or know teams that need their MS debuff dispenser?

Big Tat's Big Night

Lots happening in the world of Outland for Big Tat tonight. First, I hit exhaulted with Aldor. DING! Second, I got my mace crafted! [Hand of Eternity] Lastly, I was able to get the mace quite a bit cheaper than I expected. Thanks to Dojochicken who did the combine for 500g rather than the going rate of 800g.

This brings my +heal to 767. I'll get the +81 heal enchant thrown on it in a couple days for over +800 to heals. As Mar pointed out in earlier posts, this is still at the very low end for a raider, but that raw + heal rating cannot reflect the 8/8 EF set bonus that turns my big heal into a chain heal, which keeps players near the tank topped off. It will be a long long time before I stop wearing the EF set for healing.

Sweet sounds

So it looks like you can get the game to play it's sound files through scripts, sweet! Now I can hear all the naxx sounds.

Message from guildy

So my guild is activly trying to promote a shadow priest for raiding O . O

So crap, I don't think I'll ever get a spot, one time restraints and 2...

Well aparently having 700+ (+ to spell damage) is just not enough. I went on a raid a few nights ago into Kara. Out of 10 people I was 7th in DPS. Yes, the TANKS where above me. 3 healers below me. This was in a pure dps boss fight. A place where shadow priests can open up a little. And not by a little bit either.

So anyone who wants to dps w/ a caster... shoot for 850-900+ spell damage or more.

I'm gona go cry now.

Then I'm gona start farming mats for the next set of gear.

/sob

Maraco's 3 greatest achievments!!!

DING 500's POST! whoo hoo
DING 375 Tailoring (I can technicly make the 20 slotted bags now too)
and BBOOOOM I completed my Frozen Shadoweave set! 721 shadow damage HAZAA

Thanks guys for the tailoring mats and support.

Now to help tat grind stuff.

What Sells @ The AH?

Some of these posting fees at the AH are getting a little ridiculous. What do you guys find sells well, and what do just DE w/o even trying? In general, I've found that:

• Any item with only a single stat type (i.e. strength only, int only, etc.) doesn't sell
• Any item with a lot of spirit won't sell
• Any item where the +heal or +spell dmg is written in white rather than green doesn't sell
  

Hey Alchemists!

This is fun! You know that Philosopher's Stone that y'all use for doing high level alchemy transmutes and such? Check this out!

'I've found him!' he whispered. 'I've found Flamel! I told you I'd read the name somewhere before, I read it on the train coming here -- listen to this: "Professor Dumbledore is particularly famous for his defeat of the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945, for the discovery of the twelve uses of dragon's blood, and his work on alchemy with his partner, Nicolas Flamel"!'

...then further down the page...

'Nicolas Flamel,' she whispered dramatically, 'is the only known maker of the Philosopher's Stone!'

This is from page 237 of J.K. Rowling's Harry Poter and the Philosopher's Stone published by Bloomsbury.

Aldor Rep

Is anyone here Aldor and would like to grind marks from 3am to 5am server time? :-P

1 down, 5200 gold to go...

Now for those of you that are thinking, Hot dang, how the F&*(%@ am I supposed to come up w/ the 5000+ gold to buy the epic flight ridding skill. Here some tips.

"Daily quests" You can do a total of 8 Daily quests (only one quest a day but 8 different "dailies)

At level 70 you gain more gold for quest turn ins so you will probably get 11.99g a turn in on these. So if you can do 8 x 12 that's about 100 a day w/o drops. For those of you casual players who get 2-3 hours in at a time. You should be able to make 250-300 with out too much AH action.

Also AH.. don't sell weapons and the like if you don't think they will be hot. W/ deposits reaching 12g Its probably better to melt it and put the mats on the AH for 0(unless this has been changed)

As for maraco... I am trying to sell an epic boe to make up about 1k. Hopefully before the wedding I should have 1/2 the money I would need.

Do You really need an epic flying mount? no. You can easily get anywhere in outlands with just the normal one.

Also picking a faction to grind rep for. Helpful and in the process of going for reputation you wind up getting items which you can sell for underpants or profit.

Now. As we all know, Maraco is poor because Enchanting is a money sink and have never sold any enchants actively. Also tailoring seems to be a money sink as well trying to collect the 400 motes of water that I have/need to collect just for 3 pieces of gear.

Just my 2c.

This may be nicer than KTM(KLH)

"A buddy of mine told me about this alternative to KTM:
Omen + Threat.

Advantages are:
Ace based,
very lightweight,
consumes a lot less resources,
does not require every1 to have it to work (does own calculations),
will use KTM data from people that insists running KTM instead of using it's own calculations,
BEST ONE: Shows overall threat for currently targeted mob only, no need to ever reset the meter or set master target."

Draw backs, Range. (May be an issue in Raids where people are very far away.

http://www.wowace.com/files/Omen/Omen-r39531.1001.zip

I'm gona try running this w/ KTM at the same time. Does anyone who doesn't have ktm installed want to try it and give some feedback?

Hand of Eternity

Black Morass

Just ran Black Morass with what I believe was a PUG. I was the last invite, so I don't know very well how the group came together. The tank was a Pally who I don't think healed even once (not a criticism, that's to be expected) and another enhancement spec shammy who put out serious DPS. He healed himself on occasion, but outside of that I was the only healz. We wiped only once on the final boss, and probably that's due to the fact that I'm a n00b to BM.

Great times. BM is a very unusual instance. If you've never run it, it's highly recommended. Just remember that you must have rescued Thrall in the very first Caverns of Time wing before it will let you in.

Topic of collecting stuffs

I need Netherweave Silk from spiders (16) and or 2 per 18slotted bag
Mots of water or Primal water (14)

Gathering Mats for the Hand of Eternity

WTB 10x Khorium Bar and 4x Hardened Adamantite Bar

ToC @ Level 70

It will be a while but once most of us hit level 70, what is it we would like to do?

Hidoi and I where day dreaming and thinking it would be fun to Run Kara (i'll have to figure out what the full name means later).

Kara is a large 10 man instance w/ plenty of epics falling out of it. Its also a challenging instance that will require some gearing. Possibly a "REAL Tank" not a monkey or a cat.

As for a roster.

Hidoi/DamnedPriest (or how ever he spells it) Is our only active healer/tank atm.
Tatariushi/Tatarisomethingelse (Healer/Mage) Odd ball times atm, Possiblity if we schedual it at a good time for him
Calhoun/Guenter Not sure if he is interested in something like this. (espically since they boned both rogues and hunters) /whisper I think he should make a palidin.
Schnozbott (mage) well we have a large dps army.
Ageless (mage) play time is limited atm.
Peyrac/Dexter
Maraco/Fishmonger
Any others?
The problems I see. We will need a solid tank and a solid off tank. Possibly a Hybrid. Buffs are always very helpful. So we may want
Druid
maybe a Palidin?

So Let us brainstorm. I'm trying to get a feel for the instance, I get so lost in there right now. But the gear is bonkers compaired to most of what we get.
