Why Do You Pull So Fast?
A nice and simple question and a fairly lengthy new thread I saw and read on my Blue Tracker asked by Skeletorrior on the WoW Forums: Why do Tanks Pull So Fast? The reason It caught my attention again was more so because just a few days ago I had a chat discussion with a few guildies that brought up the question in guild chat. More so especially since Patch 3.3 with the new LFG system and with many of them now running allot of random heroics.
Wherefore Art Thou
As you all know (hopefully), I am still playing WoW, but my playing time has dropped significantly. I recently got my 5th toon to 80 but just can’t bring myself to work on #6.. It’s not even very interesting working through the quests my Paladin still has to do at level 80 now. He could use the gear upgrade, but I keep wondering if I shouldn’t just try to do Heroic runs (of course, his tanking sucks, so I have to go as DPS.. so it takes forever to get a group in the random). So.. I have mainly been logging in to raid. We’re getting the first wing down in 10 and 25 man now without much trouble. Ready to move on this week. Woot! 
What to Wear: Frost Emblem Gear for Shadow Priests
Patch 3.3 brought with it a new top-end emblem (Emblem of Frost), and a nice assortment of gear to fill in some lingering holes or help with the never-ending hit-swap dance. Personally, for now, I am hanging on to my badges to see how my luck fares in our ICC 10 runs, and how our progress goes in ICC 25. I’m not at all tempted to purchase my first few pieces of tier gear. Overall, other than the shoulders, it’s looking like it’s not worth wearing until you have the 4-piece bonus, or have been able to upgrade pieces via the marks that drop off each wing’s final boss. So, after giving it a couple more weeks, I’ll decide if I want to take the plunge and upgrade my less than 245 iLvl pieces, or wait until I have the 300-something badges for 4 pieces of tier gear.
Disenchanting Option
The new disenchanting option in the default loot systems is interesting. Coriel is an enchanter, so it’s always available whenever I do a random heroic.
In general, I like the option when doing random heroics. It’s very convenient, and it saves me the trouble of handing out shards at the end. I’m somewhat sympathetic to those enchanters who feel it has taken away the profitability of enchanting, as they’re probably correct. But I don’t really look at professions as a means to make money, so more convenience for me is more important.
Gunship: a DPS DK Perspective
Time to talk about that fun fun fight known as the Gunship!
On normal 10- and 25-man mode, this fight is extremely easy for most raid groups. There is some execution required though, and lazy play can still result in a wipe.
Make sure you have your rocket equipped, especially if you switch specs. I’ve seen too many players not be able to cross to the other ship because they forgot. Now might be a good time to remind you to always ensure you have a presence selected – when you switch specs it disables any presences.
