Our raid group has been struggling to save Ms. Dreamwalker these past few weeks.  Our 10-man crew finally saved her last Saturday, props to them.  Our 25-man has epic failed several times.  So here is a guide for all those out there that are struggling to save this stupid dragon.  The insights below are from a to-remain-anonymous Kingslayer. Btw, I’m pretty sure he was drunk when he provided this guidance – the typos and wow-rage are not credited to this author(me), nor are the insights…this is original awesome.

1) 2 Tanks – In general, don’t suck. FUK FOK. Use conc/DnD. DPS is dumb. Don’t ask them for help, it only confuses them. Blood worms want to fuck you. Let them try, you have armored pants.

2) WTF ranged. You can’t move fast enough to get to the bazing douche bags?  How about not standing at max range. Hug that bitch, bitches.

b) Melee, kill mages. see below.

3) Enancement shammy(s), DKs, and rouges split evenly on each side. Priority is Mages (for interupts).

4) Tanks, tank shit. How about pulling the hit to where the supressors are trying to go? The dumbass dps will love the chance to aoe all the shit.

50) Mages on suppressors. Frost nova, blizard bitches.

6) healers, don’t suck. Looking at you squishy bitches.

7) Frost, Fire, and Nature resist. Use it.

8 ) hunters. Kite the ugly fuckers. Try not to be retarded.

9) If you need help figuing out what to kill, kill aboms and ugly fuckers with the retard hunters.

10) Melee not mentioned above. YOu are useless. swipe supressors or run a frost/fire resist aura. Dont waste the healers mana or a tank taunt.

11) …

12) IF you are a gnome punch someone in the cock. Ocasionaly kill somehing. Like an ugly fucker, suppressor, or abom.

So…over the past few months, I’ve been itching to try to down Sartharion with three drakes up, via the popular “zerg” method.  If you do so, you get a crack at a cool mount , a new title (“of the Nightfall”), and of course, the achievement (along with the other achievements below it (1 drake and 2 drake ).  Today several of us accomplished it, so I wanted to tell you about how to do it for yourself.  In getting to that, I thought I’d first tell you about how NOT to do it.  We learned that too.

Well, if you’ve been reading for a bit (and if you haven’t, welcome to the site!), you’ve seen that we’ve been trying to put up some guides on how we play our classes.  Now it’s my turn, as a Survival Hunter. Read the rest of this entry »

Ah the tankadin.  We love those front loading, face smashing, light wielding, shield throwing, ground anointing,  judging fools.  Their threat generation has long been king dinagling and we’ve all loved it.  This article will take a look at the “969″ rotation, but in a very simple way.

The “969″ rotation refers to the rotation of greatest threat generation for Paladin tanks.  It is named as such because it refers to alternating 9-second and 6-second cooldowns throughout the rotation.  Now some of the abilities aren’t actually on a 9-second or 6-second cooldown (like consecration )…but the 969 refers to the average I guess.

You can find all the theory crafting you ever want at the maintankadin forums , inclulding Matlab simulations and the works.  A great resource for sure!  But I like to simplify things, and to that end I’ll share with you what really made it clear to me…the 969 is really 2-button WOW!

Alright, I have to come clean, there really isn’t a rotation to Healing as a Restoration Druid so the title of this post is misleading.  Healing is very situational and depends on a number of factors, so attempting to follow a pre-canned rotation just won’t work.  However, there are some tips that can help maximize your performance.
