Priest Changes – 3.1

David — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 15:25:29 +0000

Well since I’m a priest in WoW this is hopefully good news for me as atm I am a bit jaded playing what I feel is a fundamentally broken class in comparison to the other healing classes (Druid/Shaman/Paladin)

From Ghostcrawler:

We have some exciting changes planned for priests. Many of them will make it in 3.1 (Ulduar). We hope to have them finalized enough to be able to announce some in the next couple of weeks, but that date might not work out for a number of reasons. The community has a way of overlooking all those caveats such as “at this time” or “assuming nothing changes” and suddenly we are “breaking promises.”

Well lets see what happens down the line maybe they will introduce something to make healing as a holy priest interesting and fun once again.

World of Warcraft – progression

Well since I find that I spend a high percentage of my free time playing World of Warcraft.

I thought that I would start to use my under utilised blog to give my thoughts on the game my progression in it and any other general ramblings that I may have.

Well since the expansion came out at the end of last year I’ve managed to level my main up to lvl 80 and begin end-game progression with my guild.

Up till now we’ve cleared the majority of 10 and 25 man content that is available so far in this expansion. The only instances missing are 25-man Eye of Eternity (Malygos) 10-man Sartharian (+ 2/3 drakes) and 25-man Sartharian (+ 1/2/3 drakes). I’m looking forward to completing the available content and getting ready for patch 3.1 where the new 10/25 man raid zone will be introduced, Ulduar.

Outside game but still Warcraft related I’m looking at combat log statistics as well as updating the website. Next on the website will be a link into our DKP system to show the most recent loots gained by our members during our raids.

I’ll try to keep this blog updated and I hope anyone who reads it finds it interesting. I’ll try keep topics as lively as I can!

Console Gaming

Just thought I’d write a bit about what I get up to when I’m not at work or playing World of Warcraft. I currently have an XBOX 360 and a medium sized collection of games for it, most of which I find very enjoyable.

My favourites at the moment are:

Assassins Creed
Need for Speed: Pro Street
Mass Effect

I have been playing Assassins Creed more than WOW recently its a very fun game. It appeals to my sneaky side. Nothing better than sneaking up next to my intended target and stealth assassinating him/her and walking on my merry way without being spotted.

For a long time now I’ve also considered getting a PS3 but really unsure. Hmm maybe a Christmas present for myself

But I am also saving up for my new toy in the new year so maybe I will give it a miss!!
