I'm just running all the starter zones right now, so holy actually works just as well if not better ATM (holy nova ftw) but i will be switching to shadow for the higher level zones.Miss Medicinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08722915845184864567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1775731721043763893.post-19479886760961807822009-09-29T01:32:06.585-04:002009-09-29T01:32:06.585-04:00@Fuu
Most of the tells I get aren't even that...@Fuu<br /><br />Most of the tells I get aren't even that friendly. They just say "Heal ToC10?" Sigh.<br /><br />In answer to your debate I have two responses. The first is an anecdote - I was with a group (can't remember who all was there...) and we were fighting that last boss (whom I hate) in heroic Halls of Lightning. Ten seconds into the fight, all three dps were dead. 7 minutes later, the boss was down. It may have taken forever, but the tank and I (the healer obviously) were able to do the fight with no dps at all. <br /><br />All players can do damage. Not all players can heal or TAKE sustainable amounts of damage. <br /><br />The truth is, it's actually more about supply and demand. Everyone wants to feel like a badass, and DPSing has an easily quantitative way to supply that badass feeling. While all the DPSers are trading the results from their penis exte... ooops, sorry, DAMAGE METERS back and forth, the tank and healer are actually responsible for taking care of the whole damn group. People don't want to take care of others, they just want to see big numbers - so DPS is a dime a dozen. Healers and tanks are in shorter supply because they don't get that instant gratification, so less people want to play those roles. <br /><br />How many times do you have to cancel a raid or a dungeon because you don't have a dps? How many times do you have to do the same because you can't find a tank or a healer?<br /><br />Ful is going to rip into me now, isn't he? <3 you Ful!Miss Medicinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08722915845184864567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1775731721043763893.post-91907864655288574472009-09-28T18:30:01.246-04:002009-09-28T18:30:01.246-04:00Good luck with the Loremastering.

It's quite a change of pace and pocking around the old instances was interesting for a late starter such as myself.<br /><br />Hot tip - shadow spec, even in your healing gear makes the Old World effortless.<br /><br />Gobble gobble.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1775731721043763893.post-83650339482285428242009-09-28T13:37:29.750-04:002009-09-28T13:37:29.750-04:00I know what you mean, just take it easy.

There are so many things, in the game, that I would really enjoy doing instead of tanking.<br /><br />I totally understand what you mean though regarding the whispers.<br /><br />-hey fuu, can you tank this heroic? <br />-howdy fuu, can you help me out in this raid? <br />-Hey Fuu, I see that you are not on Fuu but can you switch to fuu & tank?<br /><br />AHHHhhhHHHhhhhHHH!<br /><br />PS: Ful is trying to bring up my all time (INCOMING SARCASM!) "Favorite" arguement in WoW. Help me out here.<br /><br />Tanks & Healers are more important and upfront jobs than DPS are in a raid. If a healer or tank dies, the raid wipes, but if a DPS lolfails the raid goes on. <br /><br />We've all heard this argument, how do you feel?Fuubaarnoreply@blogger.com
