    Yup, wowprogress is the way to go, wowjutsu is ---- and doesnt update enough, guildprogress is decent, but not as in depth in ranking as wowprogress.

    And Im really liking what Im seeing from the PTR with Ulduar, the sound clips fro the brain room could be very interesting, hoping we get more cut scenes, wanna see soe wrath gate epic style stuff in T8 content.

    Aren't missing much, bug trio was pretty lame :)

    C'Thun trash was annoying - only thing that stopped me from AFKing through it was the chance of one of those artifacts dropping when I was still working on Brood rep...

    Still, my least favorite was level 60 Loatheb - nothing like that for a ------block ever again in my raiding career.

    Aye took my guild a couple of nights attempts to get raid dps high enough for Loatheb, other than that..was fine. My most favourite fight was Patchwerk, got to see how much constant healing I could pump out =D

    Waiting before KT fight atm, sigh. And at least it hasn't been like 6 weeks of doing every raid and you haven't got a single up due to nothing dropping, and losing the 25maly neck every time. Annoying, so very annoying.

    edit: Scratch that post, just got Betrayer of Humanity finally. : D Now all I need is another and I'm set.

    We had the BoH drop as well. Thought I was getting my T7.5 helm, which I need so I can use my ilvl226 gloves from EoE, goddamn MT needed the helm so she could switch out a piece and still keep her 4 piece set, one of the core raiders leveled a rogue alt to go with us, he got geared to the ------ing teeth and got a webbed death. </3 Loot council

    About to kill KT tonight, hopefully I'll finally get my 7.5 head. Althought everyone already hates me as I'm the only person with the Turning Tide :D

    And yeah, the Yogg-Saron fight looks epic. Now all I need is for the ------ing Time Lost Proto Drake to spawn, I've been camping it for weeks now.

    Oof?

    My Rogue has the TLPD.
    Got it a few weeks back, and though you may well hate me for this ; took me about 2 hours of farming to get it.


    Basically 4 of us were camping the spawn points, me and a Paladin decided to group up in order to make sure one of us tagged it and we'd then roll on it. The pallie had been farming it for weeks and I'd been there for about 2 hours, actually they were my first 2 hours ever in Storm peaks. (Hadn't started Hodir, didn't level there).

    Paladin flew off to check some of the routes that the TLPD takes, and while the pallie was off I found it to the SW of the frozen river, near the village and the harpies. Tagged it, called the pallie and we took him down ; I won the roll. Pallie was of course, gutted, quit the group and flew off and is still farming it after a good few weeks now.

    I've also got the Grand Black War Mammoth from VoA, I was the last one to roll (One of our group had rolled a 99) ; unfortunately for him, I rolled 100.


    I'm lucky when it counts. =p

    I'm never lucky.

    I have seen every single best in slot for my class drop in pugs and I've won 3-4 of them at most.

    But you of all people know my luck broken.

    I just never see my ---- drop, if I REALLY need something and I roll..I generally win, I just NEVER ------ING SEE IT.

    @Jcache, man I didn't think anyone used Loot Council anymore haha. You know that ---- is bullcrap, loot always goes to the guild leaders mates.

    Every loot system has its downs.

    Personally, all the loot councils I have seen personally have been very solid, but they traditionally are very equal when it comes to high end guilds. Many of the top progressing guilds in the world use loot council systems so everyone gets their fair share of loot and no single person (outside the tanks maybe) have too much power.

    I will say loot councils favor tanks though (as I said above). This is very traditional though, you can only move as fast as your tank can, so you want to make sure your tanks are geared as well as possible for progression purposes and speed through raids.

    We can only hope that Ulduar brings a challenge to raiders and 90% of the population doesn't get geared up in it like Naxx.

    Eh most the ones I've seen have been comprised of RL mates. I've always used a DKP system for raiding and it's worked well.

    Edit:
    You know that Blizzard will just make the gear badgeable through the other content, or VOA. So there will always be scrubs and casuals running around in raid gear, it's gay. Bring back Vanilla when only the good had good gear, and when PvE gear was sick for PvP lol. I hate having a bunch of sets.

    One shouldn't have to engage in PvE to excel in PvP, and one shouldn't be able to use PvP gear in PvE and do well as someone with comparable ilvl gear.

    It's one of the few things they did well with TBC.

    Yea but PvP gear is just a pain lol, it's easier to get it from PvE than it is to get it from PvP anyway.

    Offtopic: I liked your old sig better dem =(
