  • Mmm, tasty!

    Mmm, tasty!

    As I was leveling cooking last night (370/375 – and I don’t feel a rush to finish it, as I can make all the food I need to make for raids and such and I’m sure there’ll be something better to level it on in...

  • Hitting the spell hit cap at 80 for warlocks, using rep and crafted gear

    Hitting the spell hit cap at 80 for warlocks, using rep and crafted gear

    I’ve recently been doing some looking at that delightful mechanic of spell hit (or as Wrath calls it, ‘hit rating’ – hoorah for homogenization of stats). For a warlock, in Burning Crusade, the magic number if you wanted to have a 99% chance of hitting...

  • On metamorphosis

    On metamorphosis

    Right now, this is Metamorphosis. You transform into a Demon for 30 sec. This form increases your armor by 600%, damage by 20%, reduces the chance you’ll be critically hit by melee attacks by 6% and reduces the duration of stun and snare effects by...

    Shared topics: what do you wish your profession could do?

    The current shared topic on Blog Azeroth is “what do you wish your profession could do?” I have two, so I’ll pick tailoring since I’m a little more familiar with it. There’s one item I’ve always wanted to see tailors be able to make. It...

    And now to counteract the math: dancing robots

    I think, even if no one’s calling it that, expansionitis is setting in with the guild. Raids are slowly being canceled left and right; even last night’s Kara run got called off, which annoyed me for a bit because I was supposed to sub in...

    In which boring math takes place

    Keyed up

    A quick note up-front: if you are reading this in your RSS reader, just about every post may appear to be new again – because we are finally on a new domain, thestoppableforce.net! You shouldn’t have to update anything; the feed will continue to be...

    A nicely overlapping to-do list

    You know, if I can get just a few things done, the list of instances I need to visit with Queklain overlaps nicely. I can save myself a few trips! Figure out the easiest way to get 1441 Lower City rep and finally pick up...

  • All in one night?!

    All in one night?!

    Getting there, slowly but surely… Tonight was a fun night. First I made myself productive, by maxing out first aid and then adding 100 or so points to enchanting (currently at 247, unfortunately; still too low to enchant items from heroics or many green Outland...

  • Coming to terms

    Coming to terms

    At this point, I think it is safe to say that I am probably not getting a beta key for Wrath. Ordinarily I’d be kind of upset about that except that I’ve started to come to terms with it simply because of the amount of...
