Character Investment

Do you have a backstory for your main? Is your toon anything more to you than a pile of pixels? I’m an old school D&D player, well I actually started with AD&D 2^nd edition but you can blame that on my age, so I can’t help but make up a backstory for just about every character I play. Here are a few hints to help you flesh out your avatar a little more.  

Telluric Currents and You!

We had our first raid last week, Magmaw in BWD died a well deserved death, and I went into it with a 7/2/32 TC spec, While passive mana regen is a little lower the boost you can get during the exposed head phase of Magmaw is amazing.

Us vs Magmaw

Cataclysm raiding in my guild began last Wednesday with 10 man BWD and Magmaw on the menu. We spend Wednesday knocking the rust off and stretching the ol' raid muscles then came back in on Thursday for a kill. Hit the break for some musings on 10 man raiding in Cata, Magmaw, and Healing.

News From the Front

A few quick things going on and some upcoming topics:

• Raids for my guld start tomorrow, I'll finally be able to give some firsthand reports on Cata raids.
• I'm trying out a new Telluric Currents spec. I'll let you know how it goes.
• I leveld my poor neglected hunter to 81 and worked on his Engi/Skinng
• Engineering is awesome... like really awesome... Loot-A-Rang anyone?
• The stomach flu is not fun.

I really have high hopes for the new Telluric currents spec. I'll be trying out a full TC spec and a basic resto spec with TC thrown in. I'll be posting my thoughts on hunters after ol Itad gets to 85. I'm reallying enjoying the leveling so far. Raid reports should be coming in regularly now. We go for Magmaw tomorrow and have high hopes for success.
