The GIANT Squire!

yup, thats right i was not happy with my little Squire so i made him eat his green's for 2days and now behold the mighty giant squire!

i call him Gigantuar.




after this i couldnt resist making my orphan do the same, i call him Big Orph.

A thank you.

I would just like to say a big thank you to Saphirestar for the very nice complmentary Blog post!

and to the nice comments have now recieved *smiles* on answering one, aye i did try Ulduar dude, we had a massive wipe fest 200g repair's in total! we went back to naxx to vent some wipe tastic moments!

Bear Hugs to all!

Back Again!

So, i havnt posted here for a while, manly beacuse i've taken a bit of an unforseen break nothing serious just had a little ''me time'' .

anywho now im back Arena Season Six has started and just as many of you have done i've started the arena again with the same partner and good freind as before, Trebreh, were having fun though weve been having trouble against a few teams, the most of which include a druid, seems a six and two three's, the other is hunter teams, the same set-up as ours actually holy paladin / Hunter.

now as i was mulling over what we could do enduring a rather boring day at work, i thought to myself why not edge away from survival and try a Marksman PvP spec, with the recent frost trap change the new concussive barrage will help me and my partner kite and abuse the pillars then it also occured to me Chimera shot has multiple uses...ok disarm springing to mind, now with a silence a disarm and a freezing arrow to interrupt the palading allowing time to take down the hunter i was foaming at the mouth with excitment so tonight i will try this spec:

Dothia's Marksman PvP Spec V1.0

this leaves me with one problem, the pet. im going to use a crab still for now though i will try a wolf for the extra DPS and also i will try a Bat/Bird of Prey for the stun and a chain disarm with Chimera Shot (or ''Shout'' as the tooltip says now)

note: appologies for any spelling/grammar in this post, i was rather excited at the time of writting.

Totem heat seeking pet Incoming!

The macro in the post entry below works! finally after hours of fiddling and searching, so thats good, shamans totems are no more!

*kicks a totem back into the earth* and stay there!

Pet and Master's call Macro's

Blue = Tested and Works / Green = Yet to be Tested, May not work

So someone was asking me last night for a Master's Call Macro, so just incase anyone else wants it i shall point them here as it is a far easier to copy and paste the macro's in rather than typing them.

Master's Call For youselelf;

#showtooltip Master's Call
/Target Dothias
/Cast Master's Call
/Targetlasttarget

Master's Call for your Partner;

#showtooltip Master's Call
/Target Trebreh
/Cast Master's Call
/Targetlasttarget

if you have a 3v3/5v5/2v2 and want one button push mouseover for Master's call;

#showtooltip Master's Call
/petpassive
/cast [target=mouseover, help] Master's Call; [target=player] Master's Call

and if your in a tight situation or one of your partners this is the one i find most usefull;


/petpassive
/cast [target=mouseover, help] Intervene; [target=player] Intervene
/cast [target=mouseover, help] Roar of Sacrifice; [target=player] Roar of Sacrifice /cast [target=mouseover, help] Master's Call; [target=player] Master's Call

personally i run with the last two active, the top one for me and the bottom one for my partner, though the bottom one (just above) is the one i use if im also in a tight spot.



i've also just finished coming off of a long search on the EJ forums and apparently this is the macro that works for pets killing totems, so remains to be seen if it does or not!

/petattack [target=Healing Stream Totem]
/petattack [target=Windfury Totem]
/petattack [target=Mana]
/petattack [target=Tremor Totem]
/petattack [target=Grounding Totem]

Season 6 Sets, opinions?

I think that the set designs enot to bad to be honest, if you look closeley they are all based on the current S5 sets, with added parts, looking more spiffy etc, so its like you've ''upgraded'' your current pvp armor which works pretty well, granted they could look a tad nicer but i think everyone apart from the rogue and death knight sets are fine (even if somewhat simular to the previous seasons of arena)

though if compare them to some of the raid peices, it then looks like no thought has gone into the current ones or these ones, bear in mind the hunter set will look nicer as its not moddelled for the humans so it will show up somewhat differently on the hunter races.
on dwarfs/trolls/female nelfs i think the set will look awesome, for the others not so much.

though my major critism is what the hell is up with the heads, they all look pretty bad and tasteless, i for one would much rather than these have a more ''battle worn/torn'' looking set with some gashes out of it ya'know some nice shinies (goes for all classes) and not so much of a plate looking set, hell even the Rogues set looks like a tin can! correct me if im wrong...ar they not ment to be leather wearing jugernoughts?

p.s. the death knight set does not look like something a death knight should wear, needs to be more dark and gothicy in my opinion, though perhaps there saving these idea's for later raid tier
sets.

Macro's

EDIT: as i said i would test these once i got in from work and the Verdict:
Tried on Wednesday 11th March and These DO NOT work.

So i've been attempthing to re-write the old auto-attack pet macro for totems, though it seems through some extensive forum seacrhing (Interface and Macro's Forum) that the ability to do that has been removed, to bad it was handy in the arena, BG's or duels at 60/70 so i've come up with this.

It's a little different but i hope it's going to work, im at work now so i cant test it, but in theory my pet should be killing totems like butter once more,

/cleartarget
/targetexact Grounding Totem
/targetexact [noharm]Grounding Totem
/targetexact [noharm]Grounding Totem
/targetexact [noharm]Grounding Totem
/cast [harm]Serpent Sting(Rank 1)

or

/cleartarget
/targetexact Grounding Totem
/targetexact [noharm]Grounding Totem
/targetexact [noharm]Grounding Totem
/targetexact [noharm]Grounding Totem
/pet attack

well it looks nice, so ill be trying this tonight, if i hav'nt heard anything back about it by the time i get in i shall try this one out.
