Hah! You should read the forums. We can heal DPS and tank all at once! Cmon nmow why wouldnt we we be smug? We are the best of all specs!

Ill definitely put em on the list, finished my Mythology book today. And pluggin along with the one on string theory. General Relativity/Quantum theory is crazy stuff. But definitely some hard to grasp concepts, but that makes it FUN! So got some cliffnotes on the books? What was he a professor of?

How to take a Battle Rez Khainite drood success tips The Battle Rez: Of the million or so times I’ve cast that spell, I think one in three are actually successful in that the person is up and doing their job again. Over the years, I’ve managed to see countless times where perhaps a little instruction on how best to implement the druid OP spell could solve nearly a dozen types of wipes or wasted casts. I’m wrote this as an answer to my guild’s questions and how we follow our raid leader’s BR call. Consider it a Fire Bad SOP or Standard Operating Procedure. To the Battle rezzer: When to battle rez? You are the keymaster, the corpse is your gatekeeper. The cusp of greatness is swelling in you now when you hear, “________, battle rez _________.” The anticipation is growing, the palms are sweating. This is it. This is where you the druid, earn your OPness. For no other class can instill life from death while combating the forces of evil. This is your time to shine! Greet it warmly, greet it with a calling. “For #@*! sake ________, battle rez the damn healz!!” Druid A casts Rebirth on Healslol. “#@*!!! Why did you rez Healslol…he’s a huntard!!” Stupid druid!! Raid wipes. As a battle rezzer, you are required to be able to not only corpse find yourself but know where other’s corpses are as well. Hopefully they’re helpful in aiding you to find it, but don’t always count on it. (more on that later) You must be alert and be ever mindful of the situation no matter what. Listening for the call out is best, but if the raid leader isn’t calling it out it’s best to ask first before just rezzing away. Take a triple take at who you have targeted for rezzing as well, just to make sure you’re rezzing the right person called for. The talk also allows the dead player a chance to return to his keyboard from watching “Everybody Loves Raymond” anyhow. Where to battle rez? Some fights are based on certain locations away from the tank or healers or being ranged from everyone (Kel’Thuzad). When you BR someone, they will appear where you were when you casted said BR. So it’s best not to cast it near a void zone or in front of the boss that’s known to cleave. Keep in mind that while they are rezzed with more HP and mana than a typical OOC rez, a cleave or AOE blast will just end their life again. Location is certainly a key! When to cast BR? This is of course assuming that you’ve been told to BR someone and you’re looking to cast it before the next Frozen bomb or spout or carrion swarm ect. Do it when you have the most time to be away from your job. So if there is a time when DPS has to watch what they’re doing or move out of the way, or as a healer you’ve got to make sure your tank is topped off with HOTs first. Do what you need to do first and foremost before worrying about the slow, sickly gazelle that got too close to the tiger. Stacking BRs Make sure you alert the raid leader if another druid is down and you can chain cast BR to rez two people instead of just focusing on one target. You as the druid should call this out in vent to help the raid leader know that you are down and that your rez is still available. To the Battle Rezzed: You’re Welcome I think first and foremost a thank you is in order. Someone risked his spot on the healing or DPS meter to grant you another chance at life during a boss fight. Thank the WoW gods for empowering the druid with such grace. Oh…and your raid leader for granting you a second chance at proving yourself to not be that sickly gazelle I referred to you from before. Some helpful hints follow which should aid you in making the most of your return to the living. Corpse Finding 101 If you’ve died in a corner or at some undisclosed location that’s hidden away take the time to ping on the mini map your locale so the druid isn’t running around looking for your corpse for 5 minutes. If you want to get back to the fight, it’s a good bet the druid does too. Help a feral out! Ping the map! Raising the dead After the spell has been cast, it’s a good time to get ready to click the accept button. However, scan the room for a once over and make sure you know which kinds of spells can be cast and when so that you’re not killed instantly because of something the boss tends to do regularly. This helps on all fights and keeps you self aware of possible threats you’ll face when you accept the rez and return to the fight in a weakened state. Things that annoy the piss out of me: Your 3 seconds “Oopsies” Three seconds into the fight you die and immediately call for a BR. What the hell makes me want to rez you right away? Don’t you think you’ve caused enough damage that early on with your inability to watch agro and/or staring at Sapphiron’s cleavage and you want rezzed immediately? You’ve likely set off a resonance cascade with your stupid death that might affect others in different roles i.e. DEEPz pulling agro and causing healers to get cleaved. Wait for your life to become meaningful again, agro to be restored, and the fight to last a little longer than 10 seconds before wanting to waste a BR after you had a brain fart. The Tanking Rebirth Patchwerk fight: I’m one of three tanks. Rogue haphazardly rushes to began her leet dps before tank aggro is solid and dies. Rogue whispers me “BR plz” Are you serious? You want me to go from 46k hp 38k armor to 31k hp and 9k armor for 1.46 seconds to BR your dumb ass from getting too close to him with full HP in the first place? You are seriously asking me this question right now? You want me to justify a wipe to possibly rez you? I admit…it’s ballsy. It’s also arrogant and greedy. Refer “Your 3 Second “Oopsies” AFK after death Easiest way to never ever get a BR again is go AFK during an encounter after death. It’s a waste both of my time that I spent rezzing you and your lack of concern for being there to take it. Do it once and it’s a life threatening warning. Twice…*giggles*” Welcome to BR Blacklisted Anonymous, please fill out these 17 forms in triplicate to be restored in good favor.” Two rezzers + One target /= Pornographic Happiness One of the things I can’t stand is when BRs gets casted on the same target and starts the 20 minute CD on two spells for one actual Rez. Don’t worry, I put in a ticket for it to Blizz to make it a debuff on the target so that BRs don’t stack, however it’s your job as a druid to make sure you listen to who is supposed to rez whom. If you didn’t hear it, simply ask again for clarification. Ending Thoughts: I hope this little post helps you understand some of the mechanics and stresses of the rebirth spell. I think if you can read up and understand them, you’ll do vastly better than others who just haven’t had much thought put into making it easier and safer. Good Luck and Happy Re-living, ~Khainite of Gorgonnash

The messing with the desk is always classic. Try rubbin a bit of sardine oil inside the top of the drawers of someone you really dont like. Or if your really bored. Line a shallow drawer with plastic wrap. Add water some plants/rocks/fish and REALLY hear some new things come ou ta normally quiet persons mouth But since I dont have to worry bout being cooped up in an office anymore Im kind of limited with no comp and only the cell phone Talk smack of some sort on the radio Browse the WoW forums and QQ bout Druid nerfs http://forums.somethingawful.com/index.php Goons are the most interesting people Or more often than not I read, ALOT. Just picked up a book on String theory and Quantum physics to. My leisure reading . Well finished this months Maxim(priorities yah know) first and just about done with the Mythology book(needed to brush up, something always seems to come up from the guys that do crosswords all the time) Course summertime comes around, waterballoons, supersoakers, and the all powerful water fire extinguisher and 5 gallon water cooler full of ice water bring fear into mens hearts lol

Original post here and link to the test. http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.h...90332&sid=1 My score Your Type is ENTP Extraverted %11 Intuitive %38 Thinking %50 Perceiving %33 Rational Portrait of the Inventor (ENTP) Inventors begin building gadgets and mechanisms as young children, and never really stop, though as adults they will turn their inventiveness to many kinds of organizations, social as well as mechanical. There aren't many Inventors, say about two percent of the population, but they have great impact on our everyday lives. With their innovative, entrepreneurial spirit, Inventors are always on the lookout for a better way, always eyeing new projects, new enterprises, new processes. Always aiming to "build a better mousetrap." Inventors are keenly pragmatic, and often become expert at devising the most effective means to accomplish their ends. They are the most reluctant of all the types to do things in a particular manner just because that's the way they have been done. As a result, they often bring fresh, new approaches to their work and play. They are intensely curious and continuously probe for possibilities, especially when trying to solve complex problems. Inventors are filled with ideas, but value ideas only when they make possible actions and objects. Thus they see product design not as an end in itself, but as a means to an end, as a way of devising the prototype that works and that can be brought to market. Inventors are confident in their pragmatism, counting on their ability to find effective ways and means when they need them, rather than making a detailed blueprint in advance. A rough idea is all they need to feel ready to proceed into action. Inventors often have a lively circle of friends and are interested in their ideas and activities. They are usually easy-going, seldom critical or carping. Inventors can be engaging conversationalists, able to express their own complicated ideas and to follow the ideas of others. When arguing issues, however, they may deliberately employ debate skills to the serious disadvantage of their opponents. Inventors are usually non-conformists in the workplace, and can succeed in many areas as long as the job does not involve too much humdrum routine. They make good leaders on pilot projects that test their ingenuity. And they are skilled at engineering human relationships and human systems, quickly grasping the politics of institutions and always wanting to understand the people within the system rather than tell them what to do. No matter what their occupation, however, Inventors display an extraordinary talent for rising to the demands of even the most impossible situations. "It can't be done" is a challenge to an Inventor and elicits a reaction of "I can do it." Walt Disney, Benjamin Franklin, Ray Kurtzweil, Buckminster Fuller, Richard Feynman, Thomas Edison, Camille Paglia, and Nicola Tesla are examples of an Inventor Rationals.

Safe travels brotha, I know the path you travel all too well. Hope to see yah sooner than later.

Awesome vid, I think the soundtrack could fit the vid a li bit better. But otherwise the best Ive seen to date. Though a rogue it id look like she used a warriors charge and bladestorm in there hehe.

Hmmm sounds like a "choose your own adventure" MMO. has alot of promise. If it can live up to 90% of my time spent in SWG Id be happy. But that being my first MMO it has some large shoes to fill.

LOL Its funny because its true. Though I often wonder the thinking behind men that make bonehead decisions like that. I can proudly say Ive never been told to go sleep on the couch heheheh

They make ointments for that, ya know... *scratches the itch* Think Im allergic to all that damned resil

After settin foot in WG the other night Im actually trying to get to 80 now for the honor. And will be looking for a 2v2 partner to work with as a resto kin... or even full resto with the spl pwr changes. Thinking maybe rogue/ mage/dk/hunt for the 2's bracket. Id also love to try out some 3's combinations. After weeks Im gettin that PvP itch BAD

*salutes the fellow moo cow/cat/bear/bird/owl thing* Greetings

Protector of pack changes make me happy in feral pants, Survival I dunno how bad will affect my current tanking gear. So on the fence about that. Kitty swipe is AWESOME. And more feral weps is really nice....now if they could just do something about caster leather

Im always down to DPS/offheal. ONce I hit 80 Ill start looking at tanking gear and how the new changes are gonna pan out. That and still grinding toward my epic mount so constant respeccing and min/maxing every piece of gear i get is a no no for the moment

Bwahaha, though off topic. I always wondered where the purple guy was from when i seen him in the fantasy land episode of south park

Sadly I think Blizz may just not be able to prosecute the amount of people this is happening to. My Paypal was hacked about 5 years back, they attempted to take out 1k then 10k. BoA froze my account. I finally got my Paypal account reinstated a year later, and even with the guys full name the money was being sent to and friends in law enforcement trying to help me. I, to this day, never heard of ANY kind of legal action on thier part. They were more concerned with me sending the correct cover page for reinstating my account :/

RL>WoW always. We'll all be here when you return

Its all good brotha, everyone burns out now and again....and sometimes again...and again lol

One of the reasons ill be going back to feral for most of the grind, just to gank the occasional Alliance i see flagged( though with dual spec I may just be dual Dps specs caster and balance since I have nice gear for both). But after putzing around so long during TBC waiting to get to 70 Im gonna powergrind to 80 to get into new BG's and the gear ASAP, my DK will serve as an occasional diversion if I see fit with leaving battlegrounds.

Everyone be safe tonight and check that candy twice. (And no stealing the good stuff out your kids bags after they go to sleep!) And of course dont drink and drive all that jazz. Hopefully see some interesting pics from tonight . Im off to sare some kids in the haunted house. OooooooOOoooooooo (( And I finally get to wear my costume from last year out since someone took so long puttin theirs on everything was over when we finally got out O_O))

/ninja scrunchies /cast Teleport:Moonglade Muahaha all MINE, I be dah prettiest owl you ever seen!

You sure that him? Him and his mom look so much alike

If you havent gotten any tells your more than welcome to drop me a line, though I'm usually doing PvP(as always) unless someone happens to need some cluckin ranged DPS in a raid or whatnot. Hunter Boomkin would be an interesting arena combo, or even restokin with the new changes.

Stealther die before my mighty starfall before they even get a shot, and Alliance caster run in terror when i whip out my wood. Fear dah Orbital Death Owl!
