Kevin's Watch

I blame that hunter who was using nothing but autoshot in VoA.

Actually, I checked and he was using most of the attacks you'd expect SV to use. Probably just slow and had no clue about priority.


I wasn't sure if I came across a little more blunt than usual. Particularly the comments about Asta's threat and people's dps in general.

Here's a little something for you guys.

Watch from 0:57 to 1:24 and from 3:59 to the end (the Paladin tank's perspective). Then post and tell me what you notice about it. Ignore the fight, just watch what the player is doing.

Clicking? Using two different uis ie one with clicks another with addons and key-bindings? Maybe suggesting not the same tank on both fights or did one on ptr and one on release?

The two parts are from the main tank's perspective, others are from healer and off tank I think.

He's not just clicking, it's the way he does it - he barely knows where his spells are, he dithers over which ones to cast, he has loads of downtime not casting anything, and really isn't pulling anywhere near what a tank in that kind of guild should be doing. I'm amazed (and so are most of the commenters on youtube) that he can hold aggro.

I wouldn't mind getting a few members to frap so we can see how they play

Actually, I was talking about my hunter. Though I did manage to do almost as much damage as that other hunter when I wasn't even pointed at the boss the entire time.

(For those who weren't there, I somehow got talked into dual-boxing VoA.)

You're welcome.

For Sorus:

That is awesome. There are three (THREE!) different foxes listed so far, and I want them all. And that blue warp stalker. And a Cursed Offspring of Har'koa. And a Frostsaber Huntress. And a Thunderlord Dire Wolf. And maybe another Spirit Beast. And....

I wonder what they're going to do, though, about Hunters losing most of the 70-80 spells added with WotLK (Call Stabled Pet is part of the Pet UI, and Freezing Arrow is replaced with higher-level Trap Launcher).

DUCK!

Just saw your alt sign off - missed seeing her sign on since we were in a raid.

Next time you're online, /join bunnyslippers, there are usually Watch folks hanging out in the channel.

So Cataclysm appears to have have some rather interesting storylines for us to look forward to in relation to faction leadership. From a Horde POV anyway.

Indeed. Alliance side has some interesting stuff going on, too, in Ironforge and in Darnassus. (I stopped reading the Darnassus stuff to preserve a little of the experience, but apparently it all comes out through the Hyjal quests, and regards Archdruid Staghelm.)

Ah yes - the Night Elf stuff is cool. I'll have to read up on what's happening in Ironforge.

I'm a little sad about some of the Horde changes, but I guess too sympathetic a Horde makes the War part a little hard.

Luci, didn't mean it the way it was took, but look at it from my side.

I've been hacked, I'm waiting still for all my stuff, not feeling all that great about it. I log in, and the first thing I see someone say is,

"KYSEN.

"Do you have an authenticator?"

Now, to me that doesn't really come across as a friendly greeting when it's just thrown out there like that. Yes, the next thing you wrote made the tone clear, but I'd already written my response before your next message appeared.

My automatic response to allcaps is to read it as yelling. "What's it to you" was a kneejerk reaction to what appeared to be someone about to get on my case for not having an authenticator.

i'm not readin any kind of apology in that post there bub.

i'm pretty sure i took what you said exactly as you meant it.
my response was thanks for reminding me not to give a shit.

edit: what i shoulda said back was "not a goddamn thing, mr. snippy ass!"

Sounds about right.

You know, if you'd asked if I had my stuff back yet before asking if I had an authenticator, and not the other way round, I'd have taken it much better.

you're still blaming me because you were a snippy ass! its MY fault you were a snippy ass because i greeted you incorrectly! *shakes head* i give up.

Reset, then.
