***World of Warcraft : Warlords of Draenor***

Unrelated to the post, but I see you're playing Affliction, how are you finding it? Both locks in my guild are Destro and 1 was thinking of trying it but didn't really like it.
It's fine for single target /long fights but there is no aoe and no burst dps at all.

single target dps doesn't really make up for the lack of aoe either.

destro is supposedly better by a few K but my dps seems pretty good compared to the other logs people on here posted from their guilds.
 
yea it's not a guild of try hards I've been thinking about finding somewhere more near my skill level.

Not that I'm skilled but I go to the effort of finding out how to maximise my dps etc and it's not hard to avoid 90% of mechanics on a boss fight.

There's not a lot of warlocks around because apparently we are the worst dps and I see guilds trying to recruit them often.

It's just finding out which guilds are good, raid a lot and have a space for me in their core group..

Also yesterday they said after the raid they would be contacting the people who made the HC core raid team and I never got a pm about it kinda feel a bit crap since I was tops dps on every boss kill but seem to be overlooked for some reason

I dont think its a case of try hards or anything, its just he really isn't pulling his weight. I'm coming in at just under 19k as you saw from the logs Chis (benny) linked and I think my dps isnt what it should be - I should be over 20k considering I've broken the 640ilvl barrier (in my defensive last night was the 1st time running with TotH and Barrage, so I need to sort my priorities out a little). But still, I would consider myself a casual and throwing out 16k top end - considering class/gear - is pretty shoddy. Surely he must have a little pride (not sure thats the right word) in his performance?

I would be insulted if some of the lower end dps are getting a hc spot over me if I was in your shoes :(.
 
I've just been doing the trial for this and got to 1 xp before 91 where the xp cap comes in. Seems pretty decent but I don't think I like what they've done with talents (I didn't play MoP). The guild I played with in Cata are already doing quite well with Highmaul so I doubt I'll really get a spot raiding with them by the time I'm 100!

Think I'll have to get my self the expansion and gametime tonight!

Edit: This might be easier than googling - what do the red highlight areas on the map mean? I've just come out my garrison questing in that zone and there are red areas and I can't see anything to indicate what they are?

Those areas are archaeology dig sites mate.
 
Farmed 2500 CP in a couple of hours last night and got i660 pants, sadly the shields now count as weapons so need "X points this season" for them, should only take a few weeks though :)
 
So I tried Twin Ogron last night... **** me it is a killer fight... We just couldn't seem to get through the quake/fire phase! The damage is unreal and people just can't seem to avoid it (and we tried lots of different tactics).
 
The guild I'm in on chamber of aspects is 6/7 on normal and we should kill butcher tonight on heroic.

Currently a Fury warrior at 640 ilvl, managing to pull 20-22k single target and around 30-40k aoe.

Raids in WoD are awesome, just wish they had more trash, without trash it feels empty.

I thought twin orgron was easy as hell from a ranged dps perspective.

The only thing I had to worry about was stacking for enfeebling roar. (erm I missed every one :D but the guides don't say everyone needs to stack, just enough to spread the damage)
Standing behind one of the weapons during blaze to make it easier. (got hit once according to the logs)

You should combat log fights and upload them you can see who is failing and if someone is just braindead not aware of what they should be doing you might not notice during the hectic fight but can see on the logs after like on this page
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/Nt6kXHQ8hGLfP2Dw#view=execution
that website is awesome it even tells you what to do for each phase.
like quake
"Phemos pounds the ground when he reaches 100 Energy. This causes Quake, which deals raid-wide damage. Make sure to use survival cooldowns that provide protection against magic damage. Note that Phemos begins the fight with 100 Energy, so he will perform this attack shortly after the fight begins, and every time he reaches 100 Energy again after that."

if everyone has deadly boss mods installed then it should be an easy fight really as long as the tanks and healers know what they are doing.

ranged dps have to be almost braindead to do it wrong, I'd imagine it's a lot harder as melee as theres more stuff you need to avoid.

you should make sure everyone has deadly boss mods installed so they get warnings for what mechanics are about to happen you would be amazed the amount of people that want to raid but have no clue about mods.

if you have a warlock make him put a demonic gateaway down from one of the sides towards the middle for melee who need a quick escape

How did you do that? You can only earn 1500 a week + 200 for doing the Ashran bonus if you can be bothered.

Also interested in what guild you are in, I am currently in a casual guild that seems to be getting less and less interested in talking or even being online.

no one talks in my guild chat either :S
they have a ventrillo server but no one is on there unless it's raid time.
feels like all the social side of wow is dead and people just turn up to raid and thats it

btw are there any servers with a huge UK population? sick of being with all these belgium/german people already :P
 
I feel like I've bit off more than I can chew with my Mistweaver Monk. Could anyone recommend an action bar setup? I have all of the abilities available, but I don't know which rotations to use! I've looked at guides on Icy Veins and Noxxic, but it's so convoluted. I'm currently questing, but I do plan to join my guild in raids etc.
