Huato

Yeah, ya smelly orc, you no longer have to worry about losing a roll on a staff to me again. Baracko on the other hand may decide to snatch it from you.

Ok, as some know, and many don't, I've left the guild. Here is why... Lately the game has become more of a chore or job than fun. I did not leave to join another raiding guild, so please scratch that from your minds. I don't know where I will land yet. I didn't leave because any one person in the Crushers made me angry (if that were the case I'd been gone a long time ago ). I've been contemplating this for close to a month, and this weekend I finally decided that I need a change, and one of those changes is playing less for a little while. I want to make a clean break and figure out what I want to do and where I want to go in game. For those that donated for Huato to make the Sulfuron helm, I will be mailing out the materials that were sent to me back to you. The outpouring of support for me to make this blew my mind - you guys and gals are incredible! I also have some extra materials that I bought and farmed that I will be sending to Maube for the MC runs...I have 20 Dark Iron bars, some extra Blood of the Mountains that can be used for recipes or rep, and some extra arcanite and Essence of Fire that should come in handy. If you see me around in game, feel free to hug or slap me...whichever you feel the need to do. And as always, any of Huato's or Zuato's services are the Crushers free of charge (Hammersmith/Weaponsmith; Alchemist).

I always thought it was odd to have Troll Shaman AND Priests. Aren't they Shamanistic based on lore? I think BE priests would be fine. Quite honestly every race could get away with priests in the game if you want to get right down to it...each race seems to worship something a bit differently in the game, so lore wise they could get away with Tauren priests if they so chose.

Couple things here.... 1) They have hinted that there are going to be encounters centered around Shaman and Paladins, and they have to be there for the group to succeed. That will help. 2) We have NO idea what the two classes' talent trees from 61-70 are going to look like. There is a very real possibility that Shaman are about to get a whole lot better offensively and in group buffing. I think people are over reacting and until we see the scope of the changes, I'm holding out on judging. My 2 copper.

Hopefully the Tier 2 Paladin helm will hide the Elfie ears. The we can have a dr. doom on the Horde side. Edit: oh god...now there is going to be Paladin loot dropping for Horde all the time (once expansion goes live) and Shaman loot for the Alliance. Talk about screwing with loot tables unless they do a token type quest for the Tier 1 and 2 loot with the expansion.

Warriors aren't going anywhere Relikk Pallys can't tank for one reason - they can't hold aggro very well at all.

Bubble-Hearth win?

But he'll be able to FROOOOOOST SHOOOOOOCK us after wards!

So what about the king...do you want to see him dance?

I got your king right here! Whispercast ftw.

That's ok. My Paly just may try to smite every forsaken he sees too...but then again he evloved from Blood Knights (inherently self centered) so he may like your kind...haven't decided yet.

I'd only be interested in plate with intellect/spirit on it as a Paladin, so you'd be safe.

I thought the same thing at first too, but think of a pally and a shaman in the same group...and I suspect based on what Eyonix has said that there will now be occassions (in the expansion) where one class is required to be able to defeat an encounter. I also suspect that both (well, all) classes will get more class defining talents for 61 to 70 as well, so it's going to be hard to speculate on what Paladins and Shaman will be like once the expansion hits. I suspect that the Shaman review (which most felt was a nerf) has something to do with the future talents being more powerful...just idle speculation on my part. I'm taking a wait and see attitude for now, but will be rolling a BE Paladin when the expansion hits.

I agree. It solves the faction imbalance in one shot, however we have to get our paladins to 60, well 70, to be able to compete in the end game instances. Well, I know what my first expansion character will be...BE Paladin.

Nice work Wolf! You can stick Uglutz 12354365546.345 times now.

Woogah! I am 6 living essences away from that now

Shaman who?

Sadly there are also Americans who lose ambition because in our society hard work doesn't get you far anymore compared to schmoozing the boss/leader/etc.

Yep, the Windfury totem nerf was removed thank god!

Hopefully this is a quick meeting! My Onyxia run is this Thursday.

If I had more time last night I would have stuck around and helped. As it was Drake was up 4 different times last night, so I am running on fumes. Gonna make a pot of coffee around pull time for MC tonight. He left for another guild then left the server and rolled alliance...he pops in every now and then, but it's rare. Oh, I would be happy to do a transmute for you whenever my timer is up!

lol Zu can transmute now too...just being silly since we had that whole transmute joke late last year/early this year. And I hear Kelthuzad dies anytime a Shaman drops Mana tide.

FROOOOOOOST SHOOOOOOOOCK! Hey Kaer, is that transmute up yet?

Oy! I love this patch. I won't have to wait 27346523874659876123419870 more MC runs to get Huato's final Earth Fury piece! I love the drinks idea, love that they are giving us the ability to remove totems, love the druid changes, and dislike the enchanting change...now I have to level my DE mule to de the good stuff. Love the bug fixes too. I hope this is true...there are a lot of good changes in this patch.
