Hmm not sure what a KB turner is.

I did play from vanilla, thru ulduar. (On different characters.) I have always been in a top tier progression guild, still am actually, they keep me around in hopes of me ever coming out of "retirement"

Vanilla (Warrior Tank/Fury Warrior)
BC (Enhancement Shaman, Fury Warr.)
WOTLK (DK tank, DPS DK) >Server first sarth 3d tank<
Cata (Casual has-been)

Basically, I'm a retired hardcore player who just plays for fun now. I'm not up to speed on the new raid content, but I do play very well when I log in. I prefer to tank but can dps if necessary. I also love to PVP. BG's are cool. I haven't tried the new rated BG's yet, but they look fun. Arenas I absolutely love. Not great at it (1870 in season 3 or 4 if I'm not mistaken is my best 2's rating) Look up Spykedeezy on Llane if you want to see my main. If you look up my achievements tab, you can basically see where I dropped off right around Ulduar's release.

BTW, my fiancee saw your sig and went "awwwwwwwwwww"

What kind of puppies are those???

Keyboard turner. Meaning you use the arrows or A & D to turn instead of using the mouse like an FPS game. I play it like an FPS, using A & D to side step while using W & S for forwards/backwards and the mouse for everything else. I also have a WoW Cataclysm gaming mouse with 13 buttons. Helps out a ton with the Healbot addon since I play a Holy Paladin as my main.

I was part of our guild's 10 man raiding team. We weren't hardcore but we raided 3 nights a week. We got 6/13 down on heroic last tier and got to 5/7 in Firelands but then I had to stop raiding so much because my wife was home in the evenings again. Previously she had been going to evening classes so I had the time to raid. She plays WoW, too but didn't want all our time home together to be raiding. We just play casually now.

Ech, lol no, not a keyboard turner.

I use just about the same method you do for turning.

I felt the same way when they made the Dreadsteed trainable for Warlocks. Felt so betrayed by Blizzard.

Holy Pally........../drool We should do 2v2!

Yeah man, PVPer = better PVE'r by far. It's all about situational awareness and reacting to unforseen circumstances in game. In a raid, most everything is scripted, and you can basically control/predict what is about to happen. In PVP it is ever changing. When I was a raider I traded MT duties with a feral druid, and we used to always encourage people to PVP to improve their awareness.

My old guild on Dentarg we used to use our off night as a pvp evening. Just steamroll the shit out of everyone we played. Wish I had a link to it, we had an elemental shaman (this was in BC) running around naked, running the flag in EOTS.


Lately I've just been dicking around with the firelands quests, mostly pugging dungeons and BG's. Did two arena games last week also, which was a blast. Ran Frost DK(me)/Rog/Priest.

the priest and rog were raid specced, we went 2-0 before they had to go and raid. Leaving me to pug bg's for 3 hours (makes me not even want to pvp btw) I did get my welfare gladiator weapon though, which was a big upgrade to the TB blue wep I had been using.



Samoyeds are great dogs btw. We have a 1 year old ChowChow, and she wants to get a girl for him to play with. Maybe in a year or two I will have a pic with some beer and puppies!!!!!!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[TSSUNAMI]

Rogues used to be so SICK. They gave me nightmares on my Enh Shaman during TBC.

Speaking of OP, how about DK's during LK release?

A facerolling DK could be above par. A well played DK was just rediculous. I remember duoing Doomwalker in blues with a hunter. Soloing Onyxia in blues. Tanking Sartharion with 3 drakes up, and only using my own cooldowns as unholy spec to survive. It was SO fun. Very unbalanced, but still.

Even now, they are still a pretty solid class when played properly, though I haven't raided on my DK since Yogg.

[thorn]

Dk's are still pretty OP. Not as much as LK's release but still good. Haven't played in a few months, but the last time I logged, I was still able to off tank, dps and arena successfully.
