Blog Entry: Offspec gear and Cataclysm raiding + wow gold The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself. cheap wow gold One of the things I haven't seen discussed much concerning the 10-man/25-man split in Cataclysm is how hybrid players are going to gear offspecs. wow gold This is the situation I'm in, and I suspect it's one that a lot of other hybrid players would recognize; cheap wow gold I play restoration in most guild 25-man and 10-man raids, but I tank just about everything else. On easier content, or on nights when we have too many healers show up, it's not unusual for a few people to haul out their DPS sets and go DPS for the evening. buy wow gold As such, hybrid players (and particularly hybrids who have dual-specced into a role requiring a completely different set of gear) have an interest in keeping their offspec set up to date, and the best way to do this has typically been through 10-man raids where there's not much gear competition. I got 3 Sanctified feral pieces from heroic 10-man ICC, and I'm still using a few ToGC-10 pieces to tank as well. When you only have 10 players in a raid, the number of players angling for a given piece is necessarily small, and items go to offspec quickly. wow gold 25-man raids couldn't be more different. For a specific example, I'm in line behind our feral, three rogues, fury warrior, two hunters, wow gold and possibly even two retribution paladins (!!!) for the Frostbitten Fur Boots off heroic Marrowgar-25 (yes, the number of people salivating over melee leather in Icecrown is amazingly annoying). Realistically, I'm not going to see this piece until the end of the summer or possibly even the beginning of autumn if the boots drop at their usual rate. rs gold The situation's made worse when your guild makes the leap from normal to heroic, because the line just restarts. Anybody who wanted Toskk's Maximized Wristguards, for example, is almost certainly going to want their heroic version. So, rather than being 2nd in line for the next normal drop, I go back to being 6th in line for the heroic one. aion gold As a result, the prospect of losing 10-man raids as an option to gear offspecs is a little scary, wow gold and I wonder if the raiding split is going to have an impact on the offspec that hybrids choose to play. Without the ability to build a bear set through 10-man raids, I'm really tempted to axe the resto/bear dual-spec and go bear/cat or resto/moonkin so that both sets share as much gear as possible. I don't think I'm the only hybrid player thinking about this. aion gold Again, these talents and spells are extremely early in the development stage and could change at any time. Sorry paladins! I don't believe there were any changes to the holy tree at this point. aion gold I'm sure yours will come soon enough. Anyway, don't get too happy or too depressed just yet. We are still a long ways away. wow gold xyj. Sometimes this becomes frustrating. I love to make myself todo lists, much like collecting quests in my log but even more so, I love crossing things off the list that I have accomplished. With WoW, I always seem to feel like I am just trying to keep up. =_= Related Article -_-! +_+ http://www.rgcgaming.com/blogs/entry/Brideshead-Revisited-Titus-Groan +_+ http://www.wyrelive.co.uk/blogs/entry/Brideshead-Revisited-Titus-Groan +_+ http://www.asjizmsae.com/blog/view/id_91/title_Anthony-Burgess-Invites-You-to-Consider/ +_+ http://loveconnections.ca/blogs/entry/Brideshead-Revisited-Titus-Groan +_+ http://fewbee.com/blogs/entry/Brideshead-Revisited-Titus-Groan +_+ http://www.nryntok.net/blog/view/id_414/title_anthony-burgess-invites-you-to-consider/
