I might not like the crazy tanks either but at least I've had some experience with them in Wrath. If you haven't played at all during the last expansion things have to appear completely crazy.Shintarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16758343475446510635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659326122793396570.post-6444233726446165982010-12-09T10:11:36.042+00:002010-12-09T10:11:36.042+00:00Ah yes.

The tanks pulling entire rooms, and refusing to listen to the healer bleating for drinks.<br /><br />I just came back to poke around the new old world for a month or so (no Cataclysm), and I must say, I'm having definite culture shock.<br /><br />I wailed about it here:<br />http://nugget.posterous.com/welcome-back-for-one-month-nugget-were-sure-c<br /><br />...and I'm sort of wondering how many returning players with LONG breaks are feeling the same thing.<br /><br />FWIW, when I quit just before WotLK launched, I had 10 70s - only lacking Shammy and Rogue. I had each of the three tanks, and was very good at it (or so I was told), as well as holy priest and resto druid as mains, then some assorted dps (2 warlocks! lol), and even a smite priest.<br /><br />...the WoW I left is NOT the WoW I've come back to - not by a long, long shot.nuggethttp://nugget.posterous.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659326122793396570.post-81568017508828341472010-11-30T14:45:32.506+00:002010-11-30T14:45:32.506+00:00I didn't want to say you suck... not at all. S...I didn't want to say you suck... not at all. Sorry if you got that impression. I just found it funny that today, since dual spec does exist, people are considering if they should use a healing spec for low level dungeons.<br /><br />Even Blizzard said you shouldn't need a tanking spec to tank a non-heroic dungeon, nor a healing spec to heal one. It's not your fault if people die from stupidity. And it's not your obligation to have a healing spec to heal SFK only that they don't have to learn to play. :)Kringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03128630042421602039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659326122793396570.post-87381053497437694092010-11-30T14:25:27.437+00:002010-11-30T14:25:27.437+00:00@Kring: I think I mentioned in a previous post tha...@Kring: I think I mentioned in a previous post that I used to do a lot of off-spec healing as well, from Vanilla to BC to WOTLK. The point I was trying to make was that I actually found it more difficult in these revamped low-level dungeons than ever before, due to the changes to various mechanics. Maybe that's just a wrong first impression and WOTLK spoiled me for mana regen, but I found it unusually unpleasant either way.Shintarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16758343475446510635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659326122793396570.post-28606446883448193622010-11-30T12:31:32.678+00:002010-11-30T12:31:32.678+00:00i guess SFK only makes sense if you played through...i guess SFK only makes sense if you played through the forsaken questlines in silverpine forest. but if you di... oh boy that is a ride! pure win!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659326122793396570.post-28928337364953294412010-11-30T11:06:55.610+00:002010-11-30T11:06:55.610+00:00Quest in Silverpine... it will all make perfect se...Quest in Silverpine... it will all make perfect sense, at least for Horde.<br />You wont regret it - it is one of the most amazing region wide quest chain with an awesome wow! finale.Wangarinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659326122793396570.post-44120497034393508302010-11-30T10:45:10.357+00:002010-11-30T10:45:10.357+00:00Why doesn't it make sence?

The "new" SFK is after WotLK in the time line.<br /><br />And I found the comment about dual spec funny. Back in vanilla my shadow priest healed every 5 man dungeon and up to UBRS, the 10 man raid. We're not in TBC anymore, you don't need a healing spec to heal. Even with a healing spec, you can't cure stupidity. :)Kringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03128630042421602039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659326122793396570.post-45500305503698438892010-11-30T00:17:28.815+00:002010-11-30T00:17:28.815+00:00i didn't play grizzly hills, so i can't co...i didn't play grizzly hills, so i can't comment as to the hole in the lore. it looks as though the devs went with the idea, "most people don't pay attention to the lore so we're not going to even bother. we'll throw in some undead and say it makes sense. eh, they won't even notice."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659326122793396570.post-35398782455647208782010-11-30T00:01:36.040+00:002010-11-30T00:01:36.040+00:00You think it's weird as Horde?

While the Arugal and history angle would make sense, there's no indication that the assault is anything more than a military operation.Klepsacovichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07915576683657376929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659326122793396570.post-20552706360285419912010-11-29T22:39:21.320+00:002010-11-29T22:39:21.320+00:00No Arugal?

Not to mention that this creates a HUGE plot hole in Northrend's Grizzly Hills, big enough to drive a pack of Elekks through.Redbeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05306063084983025771noreply@blogger.com
