Crikrunner

Crikrunner will gladdly sit in the tunnel on weeks I can make the friday raid. Also you just need to summon the other warlocks first then you dont need 37 shards on the first one. All the one sitting in the tunnel needs is 1 or more. The loks on the outside can go farm up the 37+ on thursday/friday.

Been toying wit the idea of going straight for Ossirian some week. Here's my thoughts... Dropping ossirian is a very long fight, everyone has to keep moving from crystal to crystal, so you only have a small ammount of time to dps. If everyone follows directions and keeps moving we can do him no problem. Ayamiss I'd like to try once, but that fight in near immpossible unless the entire raid has over 150nr (aoe 1-2k nature dmg hits entire raid every 30seconds ) Buru we can do aslong as people listen and stay alive to the end. Moam I'm baffled by, we're doing everything other raids do and drop her. Can't seem to figure out why out mana drain/ dps is lacking on our runs to take her down in the 4minutes you have. I'd love to have a 2 session run, but alas work will keep that from ever happening for me personally. If someone would lead either a run to general,moam,buru how ever many you can get down, before my sunday run, or a run after my sunday run, I'd be all for that giving us time to work on the deeper bosses more. ----Crikrunner

Crikrunner now keyed, dabu Smedlock for tanking for us.

Crikrunner just needs Drak's Blood Ghosa needs to kill rend still

ug latz me surri dat dis pass week clomp'n didn't go as well. Me gots sum new tactics to try for the general dis week so we be stomp'n em instead of 'em stomp'n us. Gonna bring mor healr n less clomp'r dis week too. Instead of habb'n dah raid help clomp dah captain first wess gonna kill dah stingers first (( off tank on dah captain being solo healed by an assigned heal'r)) dey weaklin but bite hard so tak'n dem down first will lessen dah need fer heal'n. Den we will kill dah big warriors, dem not hit hard so dah pets can help tank dem till we clobb'r dem down, den finally each wave kill dah captain. On wave 3 and 7 we'll need to clomp dah captain first still as they hav bad mojo (3 casts chain lightning , and 7 has big stomp'n hooves lik us tauren) Me tinks dis will help dah fight go mer smoothly. Also if any un be missing an idol fer turn in's let me know me giv latz min as me needs mer frends in dah druid cenarion cirlce till deys be giving me mer Baracko's ((loot )) Dabu latz dat been comin week after week wit nub luck rolling dah bones, mah plan is too giv latz dah Ossirian's head once our war party get gud enough to clomp em first. Also should items drop dat everyun der has (books, idols, quest items) me wil hab dem raid rolled off for thos ther. Me ask dat should a crusher win dem, dey sen em to Amule, fer gifts to udder guildies, radd'r den sell (( me know dey worth big shinnies, but rather dey go to guild)) Me lub latz dat ben com'n lat gud listn'r though my blah n leadership not always be dah best, me mostly wants latz to hab fun learn' to clomp new tings. May dah earthmother guide latz dis week n keep latz strong , fierce n sane. Dabu

Ug may dah earthmother guide latz, in jer journeys. Latz always kind spirit wit gud noggen, your hooves are always welkum in mah house.

Mostly me just wants to make sure dah attendance roks are right. Dabu

lol, surri me keep count wit roks, guess me lost one some where.... maybe dat was dah happy fun rok me threw at sum one.... me get new one and update...

So far we are averaging around 30ish scarabs a run so each attendance point is worth 1.5 scarabs from gordantell, so send him mail if you need yours for quest turn ins, I got my ring this week thanks to Harne giving me my missing Idol, thanks Harne you're the best! Here is attendance and loot so far, saddly since idols come from the chest, they are showing gordan as having 6 when he only has I think 1 of those, the rest went to others but ctraid can't track them that way since he picked them up first. Mostly keeping track of loot so when we drop the end boss, he drops his head that you can turn in for a choice of epic necklaces, it will be rolled on by the people with most attendance and least loot so far. Sorry the formating is off on this copy/paste, but you get the general idea Name Attedances Scarabs Epics R.

I think i'm going to take ghosa to something like this: http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classe...303100303110100 I had a few "wasted" points though, that I didn't like spending where I did. I definatly think this new patch will make alot of tri spec rogues, kind of like the old shaman mold. I wanted keep my current sword build as much intact, while adding improved sap to it. I think this gives me lots more versitility, while loosing some damage. Any suggestions?

*Updated 7/19/6* *Updated 8/6/6* *changed attendance* *Update 9/26/6* *changed to round robin loot* *idols now go to guild bank* Sign ups will be posted monday nights sometime between 7-11pm est. On Friday of each week, I will go through the list and approve people into the raid. This will be based upon past attendance in order to have a more regular group. If 5 shamans signup I will take the 2 with the best past attendance. Please sign up by friday and check the sign up saturday if your curious who's going this week. I take 2 of each class every week, 3 warloks and 3 priests are needed for moam. The extra 2 slots i try to rotate to get other classes to have 3 at best i can. While I'd like to take new people each week, I want to give the option to go to those that have been coming all along first. Scarabs and Idols will now go to the skull crusher bank. ((I wish I had started this way all along)) This is so when you win the ring/cloak/hilt we can give you the needed idols and scarabs so you can hopefully turn it in right away . As we just changed to this method on the 14th week, may take a few weeks for the idol bank to fill up to 2 of each. If you have past idols you don't have the quest item for atm, please send them to the guild bank. If you have a quest item and rep to turn it in, but lack the idols/scarabs let me or Gordantell know we'll get them to you as soon as we can. Loot will be passed out based on weeks coming without recieving an item of that type. 3 seperate counters will be kept for all that attend. One for quest items (ring/cloak/hilt), one for epic drops, one for class books. When you win an item your counter goes back to zero for the next week. Items that drop will be offered to the individual with the highest counter for that item. For example a class book drops, Sally has 10 attendance points for quest items, Bob is next highest with 8, and Alex with 0. Sally get the book, next week Sally will have a counter of 0, Bob @ 9, and Alex @ 1. Passing is always an option and encouraged if you don't have the rep for the turn in yet. Rep is as follows: Ring = Honored ( easy to get to , do all the slithius quest and farm for 40 hours or run aq a few times) Cloak = Revered ( a lot of work 100+ hours of farming or about 10 aq runs + lots of farming ) Hilt = Exalted ( a ton of work 1000+ hours of farming or 30 ish aq runs maybe more ) I will post your loot counters every week when i get chance it will be in a x / y / z format for the 3 types and preceeded by your life attendance. Regular blue drops from bosses / trash mobs , will be rolled upon by any that wish to use it. Any unwanted items will be disenchanted and the mats rr'd even if it's a nexus crystal. Please note AQ20 is not for the impatient. Only 1or 2 books and 1 quest item drop off each boss, with less than a 5 percent chance for the bosses epics to drop. It may take 20 or more weeks to do a full cycle of class books, the main reason I encourage you to come is the approximatly 1000 cenarion hold rep you get from coming. This can help you get some nice quests done in slithius that require doing missions, and for the aq quest sets (ring/cloak/weapon ie hilt). My goal with this raid is to have fun, and learn to take down some new bosses that often require more planing to take down then gear, or mass amounts of potions (). Any one wanting to donate the following: Fish Oil, Stranglekelp, Liferoot (for lesser nature pots for buru/ayamiss/general/kurnaxx) please send em to me or my Alchemist Putralia; also dream dust/dream foil for arcane pots for Moam. Sprint Potions are also helpful for Buru/Ossirian Dabu latz, see you on sundays.

Ug latz whill clomp'n on dah hummies, dis fell out of his bag. Dit sum gud battle plans fer clomp'n Ossirian. ((Thinking we should try a pull or 2 of him this coming aq20 after we take out Moam. His fight is very intense but doesn't require high nr, like the other boss fights, Buru/Ayamiss in particular. Sorry we didn't progress this past week hoping to gain some ground this week ))

Ug latz, july seconds , aq20 sheet is posted so go sign up. Me know several of latz wanted to go but fergot to sign up. We had a great first run taking out the first 2 bosses. The 2nd boss gave us trouble mostly due to bugs and bad pathing issues. and crikrunner being to slow on the heals once . Hoping to get even further this coming week, dabu latz.

Putralia can transmute too, saddly i've converted all my arcanite to converters atm or I'd send a few your way, maybe ghosa will find sum mor dis week.

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classe...050050510550151 That is what i have in mind for crikrunner on the new ones. Want a raid focus with viable pvp build for a while, then ill spec elemental/enhance once i'm geared up more.

lol I did do those on the old tree oops . off to work have to get the new ones out , thought it looked alot the same

Thanks all this exactly the type of discussion I wanted to see. For Crikrunner since i'm raiding with him now, and lack uber gear, I see taking him enhancement as a selfish spec, I could farm better but would not be as useful to the guild as a healer since I lack a great 2hander to swing, going elemental I see as more of a pvp build, so I think at first i'm going to respec for mana tide totem for raiding. This is what i have so far, where should i spend my last 8 points, I leaning towards 5 percent more mana from enhance or should I get more elemental? or less interuption of lesser heal for 5 man groups? Any suggestions thanks. This is the build with 8 points left over so far http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classe...005005500055151 Also i mostly have +mana gear atm with a few +spelldmg/healing items, where are easyish to get +healing items i might get to get the most of my heals?, dabu With my mage i'm leaning towards 31 fire 20 frost, I can still have the frost controls and imp blizzard for aoe hunting, and the single target fire for when aoeing isn't an option What do you think of this mages?, thanks http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classe...503200300000000 Also at a lost for last 8 points, maybe frost crits or scorch or thanks for ideas

Just curious what other's plans are for the 2 classes getting talent changes next patch. I'm leaning towards going back to elemental with crikrunner now that the auto crit is on a 3min timer, not sure where i'd put my other points though. I'll really miss nature's swiftness , and the tallent that lets you not get interupted as often on the short heal. May put leftover points there, but also the improved enhancement tree is really looking nice. On the mage side of things, Putralia was a fire mage for 44 lvls, but after changing to ice I enjoy the control aspects of it. Also nothing quite like the rush of soloing 5-10mobs at once. May try an Ice / Fire build post patch or vice versa, all the great single target fire dmg, with sub in ice for enhanced slow, longer slow, and imp blizzard. Mostly curious what other's plan on trying. Thanks Crikrunner

Speed doesn't affect dmg for backstab, ambush, sinister strike any more they are all normalized off the weapon type. Unless the poison proc rate is like weapon procs (fixed x times per min ) having fast weapons for more poison applications seems to be the way to go. Having said that it is a minnute difference say on my 1.5 sword vs 2.2 sword, I dont seem to see many more procs. Really is just comes down to dps more dps is better imho. Saddly very few of the top end crafted weapons are worth making, since you have us to go to upper tier dungeons with. Swords/Maces will hit with sinister strike for harder than daggers, but you loose backstab which most of your dmg comes from as a dagger rogue. With a 50dps main hand sword I crit for 800-900 on sinster strike and hit regularly for 300-400 range. Been meaning to perhaps respec ghosa for dagger if i find a 45dps or greater dagger some day to compair how much i get out of backstabs. PvP wise, i'm happy with my sword spec as i can drop people fast, but i find keeping them in range, and not having the reset talent, 1 vanish, 1 blind every 5 mins often isn't enough. Addrenalin rush the top combat talent turns you into a killing machine for those 10seconds but in pvp people dont hold still that long so its more useful on bosses. I think i've now confused myself more than I've answered previously asked questions (Forgot to mention the barman shanker was so popular as it was the slowest dagger in the game so used to hit the hardest for backstabs/ambush but with the normilization its only ok now)

Ghosa or I woud lub go again, dit been awhile, saddly mondays me always work till 930, sundays being me only udder day me free by 8pm fer a raid. ----Crikrunner

Ug, me gettin bored wit current tradeskills. Ghosa seeks dah wisdom of the clan, as a sneaky skull cracker, could him make money disenchanting (up to 40ish bosses) din selling or donating to dah clan, or is 300 mining better when latz hab favor wit dah Arcane Crystal Goddess? , dabu (( Also i'm just bored and dont have an enchanter alt over 35, as a rogue you could sneak to the trainer, just not sure if the lower lvl shards have much use or if anys had a de/ing rogue what to exspect?, would i be able to make money similiar to mining or is the slight chance of arcane better? , thanks))

T.B.D.L.L.L. This had been mentioned before in other forums, but i figured i'd post this here for skull crushers who dont know about it. This site had great info on gear and builds for all classes, including fr resist gear and sets. http://69.41.171.43/ I find it best to have a towel ready for the /drool , hope this helps some of you.

Ill be able to make it this week for if there is room Crikrunner 60 shaman or Ghosa 60 rogue (if no more shaman room)
