I am not preparedFollow

Yeap.

I am going to do some with my rogue as soon as I get back.

I won't be gearing properly for a while though and am in the process of leveling my priest to 85 as well...

I don't think you are missing out on too much though so don't worry ^^

Hit 85 already teacake. There is just SO MUCH to do i'm overwhelmed by it all. Crafting, or making money (that's right, buy my metagems you sexy bastards) or rep to get epics or howl and weep your way through heroics. Not sure i can handle pvp on top of all that. I haven't even seen uldum or hyjal yet cause my paladin went vash > deepholm > twilight highlands.

I'm gonna go holy pvp, prot pve this expansion i think. I'll probably flip between ret and holy as the fancy takes me, or should i dig up zin'rokh etc. Then again, all my alts look amazing fun for pvp so i'll end up suffering from fatal alt-itis for at least season 9. I spent about 13k gold buying all the dragonmaw blacksmithing plans so i'm set as far as starter gear goes (unless they fix honor gains at the moment, it will take you about 2-3 days of farming to get each 1650 piece so the crafted gear is a great starting point while BGing).

What does worry me is that my guild have no plans for a rated BG team, i'll have to prod them into that some more. There's no reason not to jump into arena though and get enough wins to cap your conquest points every week, i think the higher your rating the more you can get per week.

I think I'm simply going to continue trolling warriors by comparing Throwdown to Cheap Shot and saying it's OP, while not doing any PvP myself.

I blame Bloodline Champions.

LF 2v2 partner for my hunter PST with 2.2k achievement!

Happy Birthday, Theo!


Aren't December birthdays fun?

There should be, tbh. Not that 1K is an actual 'achievement', but if there's 'chieves for level 10 through 60, why not 1K arena rating?

Happy Birthday/Christmas Theo!

Kinda related to the whole birthday thing, my birthday was awesome and sucked.

Awesome: got $100 iTunes card (I read a lot of books and have an iPad), also got $150 Under Armour gift card (I have so much Under Armour it's actually ridiculous).

Suck: someone broke the passenger side rear window of my car. Didn't take the iPod, GPS, or computer in the back, or the $300 lacrosse sticks, just broke the @#%^ing window and jammed something in the lock in the driver-side door.

So yeah. I guess it was good that I got my car broken into today of all days so it sorta balances it out?

Edit: oh, and more suck; I didn't go out drinking because I've had sort of a simmering rage all day where I know as soon as I got a few shots and a couple beers in me I'd be punching the first douche bag I saw and probably spending the night in jail.

To be honest, I think mutilate is pretty much dead in PvP now that it doesn't have prep. You need to play much more conservatively than a Sub player would, since you don't have additional cooldowns.

That's just my opinion, though, and I've loved Sub since ShS got put into the game.

Damage isn't there?

You should be able to set up a burst where you can basically dump a ridiculous amount of damage on someone during a CC chain on their partner. The rest of the time you're just staying alive.

I mean forgive me for being skeptical, but I was mauling people inside of a ShD. 15k Ambushes with my crap green dagger with a 5 sec garrote was ridiculous.

Of course you need ~10% haste and have Recuperate going in order for you to put out enough abilities, but that's pretty easy.
