Class Leveling Specs in MoP
Frost Death Knight In Patch 5.0
Time for you to chill!
This post is going to be short and sweet. I had been concerned about the earlier state of Frost DK‘s in the beta. However, after checking out this recent video I’m much less tense. Frost Death Knights in 5.0 is going to be, well, at the very least playable and at the very most awesome. Check out the latest video from the MoP Beta for talents, glyphs, and so on.
There is another reason that I was excited about the 5.0 changes to the Death Knight, and I’m glad to see it go live.
I find your lack of faith… disturbing.
FORCE CHOKE BITCHES!
That is all.
How to DPS as an Arms Warrior in Patch 4.3
I currently don’t raid. However, the Convert to Raid podcast is so good, I listen to it anyway. You should too.
Anyways, the CtR crew had Torage on the show and I will pause for a moment to explain the significance of this. Torage is a Fury Warrior guru. He inspired me to keep rocking in the free world.
Torage has switched over to Arms. *record scratch*
He explained that Fury is quite bursty, and somewhat dependant on the RNG. You (and by you I mean Torage, ’cause I sure as Hell won’t be) could crank out 60k dps on one pull, and 20k on the next. Subsequent patches have reduced the dual weilding bonus for Fury, to the point where Fury and Arms are mathematically doing about the same damage. However, Arms can do it more consistantly. Henceforth, it made sense to switch.
Torage then made a video to explain the transition, and to help folks out with making the most of Arms fighting. I think you should watch it.
Seriously. Watch the damn video.
Ask Jeeves – Lovely Charms
– Trogs in Fractured Front, Deepholm: Another open world spot, but one that is quick to get to. The trogs are quite plentiful, but they have a bit of a longer respawn rate and take a little longer to kill. However, if you loot these bad boys you can make some gold off the drops. As the video shows, a Potion of Treasure Finding can really jack up your gold making potential.
– Unstable Corruptions in Throne of Tides: There are those who say that this is the best place to farm Lovely Charms. Claims of 100 charms in ten minutes have often been reported. However, most people who are not rocking raid gear (or a 390+ gear score) will not be able to get to the Unstable Corruptions solo. To reach them, you have to kill the first boss of the zone: Lady Naz’jar. That bitch does not play around, but she does play for keeps. If you can get someone to help kill her and then make your way to the Unstable Corruptions, you’ll be sitting pretty.
– Slags in Halls of Lightning: The best place to farm the Lovely Charms, IMO. Fast respawns, plenty of non-elite mobs to mow down, low hp, and easy to get to. It’s also in an instance, so you won’t be fighting anyone else for the respawns.
(Edit: There’s talk that the slags may have been nerfed. If that’s the case, you might want to check out Throne of Tides.)
Good luck with whatever your plans are for the bracelets. Have fun killing mobs for hours upon mind-numbing hours.
