Focus Targets

Short but good article on wowwiki on focus targets. This in combination with an addon like quartz could have real potential in pvp.

Catching GMs with Honey

Kind GM. I writing to throw myself on your mercy. A short while ago, I purchased the Wave of Life chestguard for 100 badges. Now, only a handful of hours later, I find myself in possetion of the Golden Links of Restoration. If it is at all possible, I'd like to trade the chest back for the badges. My Wave of Life has been gemmed and enchanted, but I don't even care so much about those if I can get the badges back.

Yours,
Tat

PS - Did I mention that's quite a cunning shirt you're wearing?

-----------------------------

It worked! :-)
As suspected, the gem and enchant are not recoverable.

Event Scheduling

Please install GroupCalendar in your WoW addons. We'll start using it for event scheduling this week.

New Gear

New gear, including s4 PVP gear, is up on the public test realms. Check out the goodies.

Guild Bank

A couple points about our guild bank.

1. Never hesitate to take something you can use. We don't care if it's just a "small upgrade" - take it anyway. That's why it was put in there in the first place. If you don't the bank clogs up with crap and we have to throw it out.
2. Please stop putting green armor items in unless they have something particularly unique about them. Resist + stam items are one example of this.
3. It can be hard to go through every icon to figure out if anything new has been added. Don't do it that way. Instead look at the bank log and you can see all recent adds. There is a separate log for each guild bank tab, so be sure to look at all three logs.
   

Kara Preperations

ToC Roster
70s Class Spec Special Note
Tsunokakushi Druid Boomkin Grats on 70

Tatakikorosu Mage Ice probably will never get to run on mage :-p [tat: I protest!!]
Tatarushi Shamy Restro 1775 1817+ healing

Ageless Mage Fire

Peyrac Hunter Beast Master
Dexterfoo Shamy Elemental

Hidoi Warrior Arms OT?
DammendPreist Priest Holy This will be tricky

Alkarizmi Warlock Great DPS! may need to hold back a wee bit

Schnozbott Mage Ice
Phlegznogs Druid Feral I would like to see MT

Audrey Ayrianna Warlock

Calhoun Rogue they only have one build
Guenter Hunter may be ready in time, i would like to see a rogue in for interups

Fishmonger Hunter Survival for the traps
Maraco Priest Shadow or Disc aprox 1300 + healing or 1200 shadow damage.

This is our current lay out.
So we will focus on that soon.
Alchemists, I would like to see a small collection of basic pots in the guild bank. Things like +15 all stats, or + armor pots. Also if our tanks are not (uncrittable) We could put in some + resilience pots. Resist pots may be nice as well, however I don't think we need cauldrons.

Basic requirements we are a wee short on. I think we need 2 tanks and 3 healers. We will probably run with Phleg & Hidoi as our tanks and Healers will be Big Tat and Maraco.

We will need some gear from Heroics before we start kara. Now Season 1 gear also counts, however we need experience dealing with harder hitting mobs.

Phlegznogs, if you are aldor, look to see if there are any good tanking items for you, if you need rep, I'm sure everyone has a lot of aldor items for turn ins.

And the last thing i could think of, if both of our warlock have diffrent sized cookies, then that would save us $ on healing potions.

That is it for now, Please add thoughts and comments.

Access Changes

In order to make this blog easier to post to, I've changed the hosting configuration around. One downside is that all previously uploaded image links have been broken, but that material is old enough that I don't think it will have any negative impacts.

From this point forward, please access it at http://toc.digihotaru.com.

If there are any guild members who are not listed as users/posters, please let Tat or Maraco know ASAP. Since we're getting ready to start gearing up for Kara, this blog will once again become more active.
