Instant cast fireball, unless you do a lot of bg's, then the elemental would be an option. It's hard to see any other way party members would be 100 yards apart.

I think that's the point - 100 yards means the whole raid will always be in range of it. The talent isn't adding range, it's adding the duration and mana restore...

I'm a big fan of instant-cast spells, unless you really need the mana...

An instant cast fireball is a pretty cool option, considering it's a 3 to 3.5 second cast spell.

Yeah, and an expensive one too. They wanted 12g to change my style, though there's some other way to do it, I think.

Only wanted 7G to change mine - isn't it usually cheaper for guys? :P

After flipping through all the choices about a dozen times I kept my old style, though some of the new ones are pretty cool.

That one new hairstyle for human guys is very BElfish, probably does cost extra.

There's a ~7g charge for hair, and another for facial hair. So if you change both, you pay double.

Yeah, I definitely changed my gnome warlock's hairstyle to a pink ponytail today :)

And haunt is frigging sweet, I also glyphed my corruption, so I have an 8 percent chance per tick now to enter shadow trance and get an instant shadow bolt (another 3 second cast). My haste rating is starting to get up there though, so now its more like a 2.75 second cast :) I havn't been affliction specced since I hit 50, and it plays a bit different now. Critting corruption ticks, who woulda thought? :)

still having trouble with game. ger got an external hard drive and moved all my photo files to it. the patch actually did download but there's still some sort of weird glitch and i can't get in the game.
also norton antivirus is not working either.

i suspect the involvement of spirits. :P

ger stayed home to work on the crap today! hopefully i'll be able to play tonight but don't know. if he hasn't got it working by the time i get home i'm calling blizzard dammit.

if anyone sees me on there anytime today before 5 pm pacific time, it's not me...it's gerald pretending he's me!! :D

Love Haunt. My lock has always been affliction except for 50-60, and the new changes rock. Except for Howl of Terror no longer being instant cast. I might take demonology for a test drive because I want to try the demon form, but I'm pretty sure I will keep my current 51/10 spec.

:cross: for ya, Luci. Hope to see you tonight!

Howl is still instant (assuming you spec for it :)) I actually forgot to spec for it patch day so I ended up paying for a respec to get it.

Awesome! I like my new hunter spec: 23 BM/38 Survival. I have the things I can't live without in BM, such as Intimidation, Spirit Bond, and all the talents that raise health/armor. Then more extra health from survival, plus damage/crit/agility increases, Wyvern Sting (which my cat now breaks, darnit), Scatter Shot, and a lot of the trap upgrades except Trap Mastery, which I'm 3 points short for. It will wait until level 73, since I probably won't be doing any major raiding in the next month.

Ah, you're right. Don't know where I got that idea.

No, I don't want one of those things stomping after me. They're annoying. :P

I may get a tenacity pet, but nothing really appeals to me. Anyway, my cats have plenty of armor thanks to my beastmaster hybrid spec.

Irvea, Katzia, Stormblaze, and their cats in the Stormwind Barbershop. Check out Irvea's new look! And Kat's purple cat! The red cat is my newest; he should fit in well since he's already yawning in group photos.
