Classic story about this: link. The original post is lost to the internet ether, but it’s probably at least 6-7 years old and “I’m wwwaaaddd” is still a joke around here. 
Yup, I’ve done that, too. Just recently, I was damning my R key for being right next to the D and A that I use to strafe–I kept replying to tells instead of moving out of the way of the damned orbs on Heroic Twin Valks. :smack:
Oh, I know. But they also give Cenarion Circle rep, which is what I was mainly referring to.
Last night, we headed back into Naxx. Oneshot Spider Quarter absolutely beautifully, everything going right. This gave us more time in Construct Quarter, which was fun. More than half the raid died repeatedly to Frogger, though, including our main healers.
We downed Grobbulus after making our enh shaman switch to resto (giving us 3 healers – we were struggling with 2), and went to take a look at Gluth – that is one ugly boss. :eek:
Unsurprisingly, the frost mage and I were on zombie chow duty. Let’s just say that I’m really glad I’d been practicing kiting recently. :eek: I found out that I could kite quite a few chow on my own, especially after the mage went down. Next time I’ll ask our shamans to drop Earthbind totems, that should help.
Awesome! I really need to head back to Naxx one of these days (my guild has been doing Undying runs and that just makes me sad… too much pressure on individuals and too little on the group).
For Grobb were people dropping poison clouds in the raid or something? Or the MT not moving the boss? Cause the healing really shouldn’t be that bad I don’t think…
And Gluth, yeah, Earthbind is badass for the chow. You’re a hunter, no? Another thing to keep in mind is you can dispell his enrage if you don’t have somebody doing that.
Another good choice is rogues with their AOE blade attack and… I think they need a slowing poison on it? That tends to help a lot.
We got Gluth down last week with a hunter, rogue, and my priest healing/shielding them full time. Our druid stood between the rest of the raid and us to toss healing back to us if need be, and had his roots buff up in case a zombie got past him and said, “healer- kill!” It helps to have a healer there who has some kind of defense mechanism, because zombies love to make healers into chow.
Whooo! On The Road Again all day today filling out forms for this and that kind of aid, so I’m just now getting back here and WoW.
Thanks for the info about the darts, I’ll correct, and yes, SFG let’s keep ol Q from doing this again and tell me how to lock the bar!
The Tool Bar, that is. Killer Wepps, Berserker Rage, And Hell-Raisin Shouts! Y’all come back now (to help me) Ya’ hear? 
Ah, Og. This dementia is vastly underrated! J/K

It WORKED SFG!
Gamin’ Dopers save the day yet again!
Thanks
Quasio
Oh! And about the circling of my wepps being faster?
I just meant that it seems (to this ol geezer) that my wepps are regenerating a lot faster than before.
Does that make sense?
Or maybe I’m just getting better at playing (thanks to a certain “motley crew” I hold most dear?)
Jesus, can I lay on the Bull-Cheese or what???
Remember?
I LOVE satire, even when it’s me who’s the subject!
Especially when it’s me!
Thanks

Completed T9. That is all.
Grats!

Found “Lock Action Bars” in the interface, SFG!
Duh!
Thanks

Finally updating from Netherweave 16-slot bags to Frostweave 20-slot bags. Ghod, what a difference. 
Grats, Gleena!!
People were unclear on the poison cloud concept, and weren’t dropping them neatly far away enough and then moving their butt - I can’t really blame them since the visual effect is more subtle than some so we had to watch more carefully. The OT was also waiting until 3-4 adds before calling for AOE dps. That didn’t work out too well due to poison, so I ended up switching off the boss every time I noticed he had 1-2 on him and blowing them up.
No rogues or druids in the lot but I’ll definitely remember that should we get one or both, good tips to have.
…I didn’t know the zombie chow talked – I figured they just kind of gurgled if anything. 
TBH, it doesn’t often occur to me to ask what things in the game sound like, although I’ve already had discussions with guildies about what the various /sillies or /lol sound like.
Log out or Exit? (Wolkie is still alive in this scenario)
I have just hit the windows key as W was rezzin’ only to come back and get killed again.
So what do y’all do when you have to…uh…pinch a loaf?
Whoops! Somebody was reading over my shoulder and gave me one of these :smack: upside the head.:eek:
Thanks

lizardling: Others may have better tactics, but the way we run Grobbulus, DPS must switch to a blob the moment it spawns. Also, anyone with a disease cure (paladin, priest, shaman?) who is new to the event must be warned that they are not allowed to cure the “injection” debuff! (That drops a cloud on the spot.) The exception is if that person themselves is injected and standing in the best spot to drop their cloud; they can cure themselves to get back into the fight faster, rather than waiting for the timer to count down.
On Gluth, there are the two tanks up front, ideally one hunter to dispel the rage on him, one healer for the two tanks, one person in the middle of the room who can help with any needed healing in front or on the kiters, and maybe huck some damage out, and then two kiters (shaman/rogue/mage) and their dedicated healer (any kind). Having the middle healer be able to do some rooting/snaring helps because they may get a lot of healing aggro from the chow. If the kiters’ healer is a shaman, all the better! Drop those Earthbind totems while you’re keeping everyone alive. As a priest, I got a lot of use out of Power Word: Shield, Renew, Prayer of Mending/Healing - you will find yourself doing some kiting as well, inadvertently, so instacast is your friend.
On another topic, I’m going for the Crusader title / Exalted Argent Champion of the Horde achievement on my priest, so I was grinding faction rep last night. I’ve already made Champion for each Horde faction and am Exalted with Darkspear Trolls and Orgrimmar, so I hit the BElf lands for newbie quests. I went out there at the very start of Revered. I did every quest available in Eversong Woods, then used WoWHead’s search feature to show me all the quests available in the Ghostlands that give Silvermoon rep; I am not about halfway through Revered with them, catching up with Thunder Bluff and Undercity.
I’m using a new bossmod and I luuuuuuuuurve it so far: Deus Vox Encounters (DXE). I highly recommend it to anybody who’s still using DBM or BigWigs.
Went back to TotGC last night, and since I sat for the first fight last week, I rotated in for NB and added that to my kill list, so now all I need is Anub. Stupid Faction Champs refused to drop the tanking trink on either normal or Heroic, of course. The jerks. Still working on the damned UH set, but I got the new Ony trinket (from turning in the head), so I put on another half-percent of avoidance. Slowly but surely…
Oh, you want me to actually **read **everything? Jeeze. 
Woot! Grats!
The trick is to run **at the back **of a blob. Also, if you have any lag at all, you’re fucked. Once one rezzer (Priest, Druid, Shammy, or Pally) makes it across, they should wait **on the far side **and rez people there. Don’t ever rez somebody in the middle, or they’ll probably just die again. 
**Absolutely **yes. Shamans shoudln’t even have to ask about that–they should just know to drop 'em.
'Course it did–***I ***suggested it.
If you mean they’re “lighting up” faster, because you have the Rage available to use them, that’s probably because your gear is getting better. Warriors have a weird positive feedback loop going on: the more damage we do, the more Rage we get, so the more damage we do, so the more Rage we… Well, you get the idea. It means we tend to have a “gear hump”–under a certain quality of gear at a given level, we spend a lot of time auto-attacking and waiting to build up Rage. Once we’re past that hump, we have more Rage than we can stand.
Woohoo! How’s your four-piece bonus?
Woot! I knew you could do it.
Your boss tank should be dragging Grob around the outside of the room (on the grate or between the grate and the wall), moving him after every cloud, with a decent amount of space between clouds. Anyboyd who gets the Mutating Injection should then run to the wall behind the most recent cloud. (Or, if they’re by the ramp, up the ramp as far as they can go w/o hitting another cloud.)
Unless you’re really overgeared, the adds should always be the first priority. (And unless somebody is standing where they’re not supposed to be, you should only have one or two up at a time.)
IIRC, either way, your character is going to continue to exist in the game for at least a few seconds. You’d be better off just parking his butt somewhere safe, where you don’t think any mobs are about to respawn.
Bah, you’re going easy on them. I park my priest on the near side and make them do it again! And yes, you can practically step on a blob’s tail and be fine.
I’m also the nice priest who slaps Levitate on everyone before they run over the slime moat on the way in and out of that room, so I do use my powers for good!
As much fun as it is to laugh at the people who chain-fail at Frogger, I personally would rather keep moving on. YMMV.
Bah, you’re no fun. 
Anyway, I’m ‘She Who Fails at Safety Dancing,’ so if I’m along we’re not getting the achievement. I think I’ve lived 2-3 times, though those were more recent times.
