Are they all on different accounts?


Also, serious accomplishment: I exchanged my underused shadow spec, which I wasn't very good at and couldn't really be bothered about much, for a Disc PvP spec since I actually PvP every single day.

Then Aeth made me hit the dueling area in front of Orgrimmar and I dueled some people.
Apart from one duel at level 20, that was the first time I've done this since Disc was only viable for PvP, which was also when I used to go party with my guild because I didn't have any friends, so that would've been around March '08 or so.
It was fun. I might hit up AJ soon and learn to PvP properly.

Glad you are enjoying disc. It's a really fun spec.

Yes, if you multibox, you must have a separate copy of the game and an account for each character, including a the 15 dollar monthly fee for each. You can put all your wow accounts on one Battlenet Account and Authenticator. A dropdown will let you choose the wow account you are logging into. I doubt I'll do it, since I spent a good deal of time tri-boxing, plus I'd need to character transfer 80's around between accounts again, but it is fun to think about.

Yes, I know this. I've dual boxed a bit in the past, when I still could.
I was just wondering if you have them on the necessary five separate accounts already and pay for five accounts, or if it would involve extra cost. You answered that anyway.

I rolled my priest and got to level 5 (to pick up BoAs Smiley: tongue), does that count? :3

Excellent choice. Keep the Troll priest quest robe for RP purposes, it makes you an ice queen.

I ditched that haircut around level 20, though. It's more of a rogue style, I think.

Troll girls gotta go with the mohawk, no?

I waffled between the lots of braids and the wrapped braid. Ultimately I liked the look of the lots of braids from the back better.

I can't bring myself to rock a mohawk Smiley: lol

I actually went with the Mohawk on my other troll girls (shaman, bank alt and DK), but not on the priest. She's got the long straight hair with the bit up, and I'm not really all that pleased with it but Mohawks aren't all that priestly, and most other haircuts look like I'm suffering from a receding hairline. I really hope they introduce properly pretty haircuts for trolls at some point.

That off-hand is horrible. Everytime it drops, I roll, win it, pass it on anyway because it's only a minor upgrade, and two weeks later the person who I passed it to leaves the guild. That has happened like three times already. It's cursed I tell you.

8/12 ICC25 with a PuG yesterday.

8/12 ICC10 with the guild and 3 puggies today, one of which joined us (as in, the guild) somewhere between the wipes on Blood Princes. We did one-shot everything up to them, though, and might continue on Tuesday and try and get the Blood Wing down.

Loving the 20% buff.

I also finally got to replace my Shriveled Heart, and I don't really like the hit on there, but it's definitely an upgrade. Thanks to our moonkin for giving it to me. <3

Later, I decided that I had too much gold and got meself some new shoes to replace my 232 ones.

Thus I'm sitting at eh... 5682 or something Gearscore in PvE gear, 5770 or so in PvP gear and 5802 in "OMG LOOK AT MY GEARSCORE" gear. And over 3,000 Spellpower unbuffed. Our holy paladin still has much better gear than me, and does better at the later ICC bosses, too. I'm still shining on LDW and getting better and better at Lootship and Deathbringer. And Festergut, I think. I might wanna change my UI a bit to be more efficient on some later bosses, I've only really prepared for Sindragosa. As if, ha!

Assuming that we can keep most of this group.

Have you actually ever successfully downed her? Because from what I've heard, that's quite a step up from the rest of the instance. Less margin for error, I guess it's good the strategy isn't too involved.

And 2 weeks for getting a few tries on LK in, or for downing him? I'd be slightly amused if we got him before Sophie though, but from what I understand they already have Sindragosa on farm, pretty much.

Sindragosa is easier than BQ imo.

(says the guy who's never actually finished a kill lol >_>; we've come close enough that it was just a matter of tightening up dps uptime, so I consider it close enough to count)

From what I've seen video-wise, Sindragosa seems pretty straightforward. Those debuffs (especially the caster one) are predictable and it seems like you could heal through them at least for some people, and everything else is stuff I've done a lot of times, just all combined.


Raid didn't happen today, though.

Without trying to spit on you, this seems so delightfully logically wrong. Sindragosa phase one is ****** easy. That only becomes hard when you realize that you need the DPS to stop her from flying up into the air a third time or you might have troubles killing her before enrage in P2. Besides, P2 is altogether where the **** starts. The fight is fairly forgiving, but there are so many things to look out for in P2 that it's really easy to forget just one thing. And if two or three people do so, it *will* wipe the raid. If you've never actually killed Sindragosa I can imagine you consider her to be easy, as she doesn't get hard until the very end (there's some innuendo there somewhere).

BQ is probably easier, to be honest, though it does really depend. If you've actually got serious troubles on BQ, Sindragosa will probably be of similar difficulty. The problem with BQ is more about getting everything right in relation with the bites & fear while constantly optimizing DPS, which is something you seem to either do right more or less of the bat or will wipe on a bunch of times.

BQ is a complete faceroll boss. It's a dps race and not one with very high requirements either.
I'd say that Princes are harder, Putricide is harder (even with the 10m LOLOL tactic) and Sindragosa and LK are definitely harder.

I said I've come close enough, and by that I mean consistently down to about 500k before we hit enrage and cold aura oneshot us. Our execution was good, it's just getting dps to clean up their act that would have made the difference. I've seen all three phases, and frost tombs are really quite simple if your raid positioning is any kind of respectable, even when dealing with Mystic Buffet. The mechanics in P1 and 2 teach you wtf to do, and then P3 is "okay, now do it all together" and it's really quite simple.

I say it's easier than BQ not because BQ is hard to begin with, but because it's so tight of a DPS race. Sindragosa isn't, our trailing DPS are just that far behind and we only make up on BQ because the top ones are so high that they can pick up the slack once bitten.

I'm talking about all this without the buff, btw. With it, I know BQ is a joke, and we'd have probably had the Lich King even with 5% had I not had to step off due to life aggro and cause our healers to go off and do their own thing.

Edit: Either way, it was a passing opinion, every group is different and handles things differently. I just personally found the demands of Sindragosa to be a lot more straightforward than trying to organize and coordinate the vampire bites with all the other stuff going on in that fight.

Edit2: Aeth, out of curiosity, what is this 10man LOLOL tactic on putricide?

Started working on ICC 10 hardmodes. Got all the bosses down up to Fesertgut, who gave us some trouble. Giving him another try tonight.

Stack up under the green tap.
Removes most of the needed movement until P3 and people can just stand and pewpew.
