Crusade is Calling

"The Call of the Crusade" is not a part of bloody Christian history but merely the new Patch that has hit World of Warcraft players everywhere.

"Has hit" is a good term, because there was a brief window that let me log into the game and have a look at my Druid and her new Cat/Bear form. (awwwwww!)
But now the Login server seems to be down, it tries to load my characters but than it disconnects me again.

Well, gnaaa.

I have been catching up on all the changes and it is a lot. Deathknights had their talent points refunded... again. They are doing so much to the class, that you can barely keep up.

You can barely keep up with anything that is in this. It is frustrating to update almost every addon again, I just got it as I wanted it to be. It's as if they won't let you catch your breath, and it seems with the ability for more people to raid more people get bored with content really fast.

I do love the idea of the tournament, it's just that I hate hate hate jousting. And I don't really like the dailies there at all. So sorry that I'm not thrilled to have a patch mainly for giving us more... jousting.

Well, gnaaa.

I'll go and shut off the computer now and get some fresh air. :)

I love my druid but...

... I so need dual spec. There is not much I can do at the moment but wait for Heroic Instance groups or raids... well, it's kind of a dead end.

So I'll be going online only for raiding night. I'll do something else for the other time. I'm simply bored again and exhausted because of other stuff, not the game. But it does not distract me like it used to.

*sigh*
I'll have a look at the other servers I have chars on, maybe it's time to clean up a bit. Going to delete chars - no not the ones on Dun Morogh, not yet.

Boomkin 101s

Foofy is putting out some nice Basic "How to"s about the Moonkin. These are meant for raiding and PvE.
There are a number of things in there I didn't know. And keeping a link here for when Dual Spec comes out.

Moonkin Raiding Basics 101 (part1) [spec + stats]

Moonkin Raiding Basics 101 (part2) [gems + rotation]

Great guides.
:)

Prep Post for Moon

As with everything: Be prepared.

So here are links to articles I liked, just a quick linkage dump for later use.

Jiyambi's Guide to Tree Healing [has notes on spells and glyphs]

Shifting Perspectives: Gearing your Restoration Druid at 80

EJ: Druid Gem Compilation
EJ: Resto pre-raid gear
EJ: Restoration Itemization [best in slot, stat discussion and numbers]

TBC.

Healer discussion

I've found a new resource of awesomeness for my healer needs. And judging by the introduction thread there are a few people who share total Healer-love. Reminds me of that time I had a Holy Paladin, A Resto Druid and a Holy priest, all 70 on one server.

He topped that by having a Shaman as well.
But nice people and I've found another day and night of reading --

PlusHeal.com

... on another note: I'm not transfering Moonseed to Todeskrallen. It's not fair on the Moonseed that is already on Todeskrallen but lacks 7 more levels.

- 2 levels per week - at the very least. Should be manageable. And I'm saving my DKPs for her as well.

[post 3.0] The Druid

Currently I am playing two druids, one feral, one is a tree. So my talent specc for the Boomkin comes from a different source.

Feral-Cat (0/50/11) - either you take Omen of Clarity or the 51-talent Berserk. Moonseed is specced for Cat just to farm, so no tanking - and Berserk is THE tanking talent, I guess. So I took Omen of Clarity.

Feral-Bear (0/61/0) Full Feral. raaawwww

Restoration (5/0/56)

Balance (61/0/0) Iora's specc, I have no clue about Boomkins. :)
