Alliance just do a quest line in Dustwallow Marsh and it give us a teleport from SW to Theramore as long as you never turn it in :p. It's a beautiful thing and no Revered status required!

You don't get CoT rep in Hyjal. You get Scale of the Sands rep. Also, LOL at Anubis for being a nub! :laugh:

Back when you needed Revered for heroics, I kinda felt like heroic BM was 30 mins for 3 badges... except the flight from TB to Tan took so damn long.

Not an easy heroic, but not as hard as people said it was imo. At the time however badges had far less importance.

Yea I?m 308 rep from exalted with Hyjal different rep, grrr 1 more week for my ring, knew I should have wiped us on azgalor

Hey I must be a super noob as I have 5 70s none of which are revered with CoT
I tend do get the bare min rep with factions that have useless stuff for me, heroic BM wasn?t worth running 9 months ago in blues because it was near impossible, now its easy but I don?t need badges bad enough to run BM or Durn on heroic

itll prob be months before I?m exalted with SSO because its useless rep for me, I have my trinket from heroic MagT and will most likely not run it ever again unless a full guild group really needs a DPS class

Do you have a gathering profession on your main? If so, consider dropping it for alchemy just so you can get the new trinkets for being exalted with SSO. Money is so easy to come by that dropping a gathering profession for the time being shouldn't be that much of an issue. I'm not certain if your other trinket selections are better than the alchemy one, but it is at least worth a look. That plus alchemy and gathering professions are really easy to level.

Not that I recall. I actually haven't been posting for as long as I've been here. I joined to sell a Rio on FS/FT and didn't really start posting until 2006 :p. Conveniently that's also when I graduated from college if you catch my doriftu!

Exalted with SSO finally. Redeemer's Alchemist Stone ftw. 2219 +healing completely unbuffed, still with my nub lights justice. Hopefully Kaz will be nice and drop me a hammer of atonement or I'll settle for the new badge mace to push me over 2300.

At the rate my guild is progressing, and the rate that the shattered sun offensive is NOT progressing (we are like 26% into phase 2 as of last night wtf...). I might just end up with a crystal spire of karabor before the armory even opens -_-;

And I've got like 300 badges just collecting dust.

crystal spire much like warglaves and tempest of chaos is a myth for us :(

My priest is 2133/6000 Friendly and he's only done one daily and 3 MagT runs. Although, no one does a complete run as they skip plenty of mobs.

Argh, so there is a argument going on in my guild's forum atm.... we are 4/6 SSC and 3/4 TK, and we can down all of those besides tidewalker consistently (we have some grave problems because they refuse to let people fend for themself and always has a healer down there who eventually pulls murloc aggro). But the argument is that some people want to stop SSC and TK and just do Hyjal and BT. I posted about how even if our gear is good enough, that we dont have the required experience. People argue back that we can down those bosses, and our MTs have between 17k-19k health and we have awesome DPS.

I don't care though, I want to finish SSC and TK then move on... argh...

The badge mace is better for PvE, lacks the res but has more sta and int.

PvP isn't my thing. I don't have the time or patience to work my way up from the bottom with no resilience and get my ass whooped left and right by dedicated S3/T6 PvP teams with intentionally computed hard to beat "ideal" arena class compositions and such that do nothing but arena 24/7, just so I can scrape by every week with enough points to buy one piece of arena gear every month.... no thanks.

I went prot and tanked MgT with a IRL friend's holy pally (the one who got me playing in the first place) who had difficulty pugging tanks . Just ran normal and reset repeatedly. Never hard to find 3 willing dps when you have a tank and healer, esp. a prot pally tank. The room before the second boss is fun to single pull; I end up topping the damage meter, as a tank, with partial healing gear :)

The prot gear I have though is all off spec epics I've collected here and there, and I'm missing a few pieces. Not too often you see a tank with T5 healing shoulders and a Light's Justice ;) 16k and 450ish def though.

Do what we did, do tidewalker after Karathress with the same group (4 tanks, one being a prot pally, and 7-8 healers).

That allows for some redundancy. With a good uncrushable tank and a prot pally, the only dangerous thing is the watery grave. We had 4 healers watery graved one time and that was the last straw. Now we have extra healers, and off tanks that just run around and pick up murlocs temporarily in case the prot pally gets watery graved. The key to this fight is redundancy to eliminate Murphy's Law from the fight.

Also have ALL your healers, except the designated watery grave healer (preferably a pally who can bubble to drop murloc aggro just in case), stand on top of the prot pally at the murloc collection point (try behind tidewalker so you can dps him as you AoE the locs). Paladins healers click off salvation and put up righteous fury to generate healing aggro that causes murlocs to head immediately to that point, where they are picked up by the prot pally as soon as they hit his consecrate. This saves the clothies from getting healing and dps aggro and having the murlocs all over the place as well. No way the watery grave healer with salv will pull murloc aggro against healers with righteous fury and no salv, especially if they take advantage of the earthquake damage and use divine favor to get a well timed holy light crit as they spawn. Take advantage of mulocs tendency to heal aggro and use it against them. No frost novas or anything, just let them run to the healers who are standing on the pally tank and the pally tank picks them up instantly, wait for one complete consecrate and SoC and AoE them down. Anyone who gets murlocs on them should stop what they are doing and run to stack up with the healers until the pally tank gets them.

Watery grave healer is just for backup, people should pot and health stone mid air after their watery grave goes off. For me, I pop my +300 heal trinkets, divine favor, and holy shock myself mid air for around 3k, that takes the load off the grave healer for people who need it.

With that strat you'll be able to one shot him every time.

Luck ran out today. Open 3 packs and no badges.

I'm torn about doing so many dailies. managing about 13 a day, and taking 130g away after repairs and flight cost. But I've still got 2 3/4 zones of quest to do and those quest are also giving 10+g a pop.

If I had an epic flyer it might not be so bad, but regular flying takes a good bit more time moving around.

Haven't done my dailies in awhile.

are you allread in phase 3? we are 80% of the way to the armory but only have the shat > QD port

there was no QD-> shat port

however one of the dailys gives you a scroll that ports you to shat once

Nah, we're still phase 2... can't remember how far we're in though, but you need to do "Know Your Ley Lines" to get the portal back if I remember correctly. That's also the quest that gives the port scroll.

Hmm I'm looking at a guide and it doesn't mention a portal back... maybe some mage just created a portal to Shatt right up there :laugh:.
