In the Still of the Night… (in Which Elentari Comes Late to the Party…)
Well, probably about 2 hours after I edited my post last night lamenting Blizzard’s lack of following through with their deadline on posting proposed changes to the rogue, those sneaky bastards at Blizzard channeled their inner rogues and posted the rogue changes right before midnight PST. Pairing that with the fact I worked all day today, I am not posting my reaction much after most other rogue bloggers have already thrown their two cents in.
But yah, I’m still gonna do it
Please please comment and point out things that perhaps you like about this or parts that I have misinterpreted, this is all still pretty darn new, (ie. less than 24 hours old).
Ruby Sanctum : Fire Fire Fire…
I logged in for a bit last night prior to recording TNB and got invited to our 25man Raid. The Ruby Sanctum had opened and we wanted to head right in and kick some Dragonkin butt. So… We headed on in and promptly wiped to the first Trash Pack. No, it wasn’t because we weren’t doing CC (although that might have helped). Well, I guess off tanking them could be considered CC, eh? It was because we took that same nonchalant attitude we have been taking in ICC for a while. Just Kill Em All! Well, not single targeting doesn’t really work.
So, we came back in and starting single target taking down the groups and had much better luck that way. There are a few packs that have a mob called Charscale Commander. For these, they had one of the druids (me actually) Hibernate this guy while we killed the rest of the pack. Reason? He does a buff to the other mobs and that makes the fight much harder. So, you keep him on ice (or well, asleep) until done with the rest.
Talent Tree Changes
Extensive talent tree changes coming in Cataclysm.
I’m not really sure what to think of these changes. In general, I like the smaller trees. I’m just not sure about the forced specialization.
It means that there is much less potential builds out there. No 30/11, or 21/20 builds will be possible. But on the other hand, such builds tend to be rare anyways. Sometimes choice is an illusion, and in reality there are only a handful of viable builds. So the end result might be the same now and in Cataclysm, but it will just be more obvious.
