Monday, November 30, 2009 [Views: 475]
It's not often that I pay attention to loot systems for pugs, since most don't work. They reward the undergeared idiots and remove any incentive for decent raiders to join pugs, but when I first heard of this advertised in trade chat, I had to ask a few questions. After a few answers, I realised that gdkp's design is done in such a way it rewards raiders who are geared and are willing to run other people through raids. What else is great, it eliminates the benefits that reward those ....... [Read more]

Most Holy Paladin's don't really see the value in Hand of Sacrifice, especially those who are struggling to do heroics.

Blog: Ulduar Full Steam Ahead
Tuesday, May 05, 2009 [Views: 37]
Our guild has stepped up our raiding schedule for the first month of stepping into Ulduar. It has kind of killed a lot of my spare time to work on here. Next week we're going back to our normal schedule so I should have more time for here and the other sites. Well that and work going spastic busy when Ulduar came out. Our guild has also been clowning around a little more than we should be so our progress isn't as high as it could be. Meh, what the hell, we're all here to have fun and going okay.... [Read more]

As we have suggested, we have become concerned that mana regeneration is currently too powerful, especially for healers. We want players to have to keep an eye on mana. We don’t want you to go out of mana every fight, but running out of mana should be a very real risk for sloppy playing or attempting content that you aren’t yet ready for. When mana regeneration is trivial then certain parts of the game break down – classes that offer Replenishment are devalued....... [Read more]
