Ugh

Long day at work leaving me in a bad mood. I'm afraid to log in for raid tonight cause I don't wanna snap at someone even though I'm not mad at THEM. Too bad as tank I can't avoid vent.

Battle Bots!

They're here, get yours. Here's how:

mountaindewgamefuel.com - you must register an account here

https://us.battle.net/login/login.xml?ref=https://www.worldofwarcraft.com/account/&app=wam-you must go here, log in, and set yourself up with a battle.net account

https://us.battle.net/login/login.xml?ref=https://us.battle.net/account/management/redeem.html%3Fkey%3D30e66dfed4d50331274d20af4dbf1143%26expire%3D1244689244000&app=bam-you must go here and enter your login info (via battle.net account)

once completed you will recieve an in-game mail on each of your characters with the pet.

Otional step-repeat last step each day to acquire fuel for your pet via in-game mail. (note you can pick either color of fuel even after choosing a side to ensure you can make your pet battle others.

Side note: The mail only lasts until the next time you Acquire something. For example: you get battle bot day one you get blue fuel day 2. Any character's mailbox you did not take the battle bot from prior to redeeming item for blue fuel will not have the battle bot but will have the fuel.

New content

Been a great week for my guild and I, 3 new bosses down in uld25 and still got one night left. Taking a crack team into uld10 to get a feel for the fights really helps.

In game gold for TCD items

Beware of the clever scams. http://www.wow.com/2009/06/04/beware-of-blood-elves-selling-mounts/#continued

The great ones die young

For anyone who doesn't keep up to date on things, curse and wowinterface teamed up to get rid of wowmatrix. If you are still using wowmatrix your addons are not being updated properly as it can no longer access either of those sites. I'd suggest curse client over mmoui minion as from my testing of it, it's pretty awful. As a side note a few good sites you may or may not know about to help you along for various things.

Until next time.

Ulduar: My take

While ulduar is getting dumbed down faster than anyone expected, there are still a few things that remain true from older content:

1. Pally healers are still pigeonholed into healing mt.

1a. Due to this, and unpredictable damage a lot of thier healing can end up being overheal.

2. Pally tanks still get the shaft on any "cooldown" bosses

3.Resto shamans earthshield can heal more on a mt than a pally spamming holy light.

4.elemental shamans are not a dying class, this is and always be a myth.

5.Enhance shamans are under-represented.

6.Elemental shamans still don't bring any unique buffs that should account for them deserving to do less dps than "pures" according to blizzards rules.

These are the things I could think of offhand, I'm going to start doing rundowns of the fights over the next week or so.
