teddogTook yesterday off, since I was feeling right sick at the office on Tuesday and left work early.
A lot of the day, probably too much, was spend dicking around with my paladin on World of Warcraft. After a painful round of Deadmines, it's safe to say that I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO WITH HER.
Hybrid classes in WoW are tricky things. I have a druid and shaman too, but either feel as... awkward as a pally. It's a support class - I GET that. Thing is, I want to like the class, but I don't want to be stuck feeling like I'm going insane while trying to level. I think that I can build a reasonable tank out of her if I respec and upgrade some of my gear. The problem with tanks is what do you do with them while soloing.
I tryed building my warrior as a tank - it didn't end well. At that point warriors were seriously broken and it was impossible for me as a Protection speced warrior to kill things fast enough to stay alive. So, Protection warrior became Fury warrior.
I haven't been enjoying soloing too much with my pally. I thinks the problem is she's specced Holy and I HATE healing. I may respec to Retribution or Protection. Bah.

Date: 2007-03-30 03:22 am (UTC)Some notes about this. It was a 12 man raid against Blightcaller. I survived the battle with him and his dogs but fell after because of the 50 or so Skeletons created by healing (apparenly no one had researched this prior). I even held his aggro for 30 seconds and survived (and bandaged after someone peeled him and proceeded to create skeletons). The yellow bars are rogues and there is four of them. The one below me was level 67 and one below that was 63. That was my greatest accomplishment. Even better was that I was saving for my mount and had none of my new skills for level 60.
But now I am suffering and I've seen my DPS start to plateau until I catch up my training. I struggled to keep with a level 64 mage the other night. Made me cry...

Aspect of the Viper - Used to help with mana use, but it kills some of my attack power
Kill Command - Lets the pet do 127 more damage after a crit. Can be seen as aggro management.
Snake Trap - Novelty skill that's only good at doing casting interrupts.
Misdirection - Aggro management skill.
In other words, mostly utility and not so much DPS.
