My take on hybrids vs pures

So this is a DPS blog, and one of the major ongoing, most over talked subjects is the giant hybrid vs pure argument. So I guess this wouldn’t really be a real DPS blog unless I waffled about it for a while.

That and I’ve been trying to write a blog post for the last week and it just won’t be written, so I’m going to try something I’ve been considering for a while.

I’m going to try and talk a bit about the history of pures and hybrids (although I’m bound to get some of it wrong), and then I’m going to take a look at where they are now, and what I view as the current philosophy of pures and hybrids, and how they are balanced.

Cataclysm tip of the day.

Cataclysm warlock changes @85, the cliff notes edition

Ok, so you know how to play a warlock post 4.0, but you havn’t bothered to look up @85 changes? You want the cliff notes edition, quick and easy. Well here we go, this is going to be a fairly quick guide to the warlock changes at level 85, our new spells, and a few other important pieces relevant to warlocks.

Perhaps you’ve been to busy with a 11th hour, 59th minute and 58 second kill of LK or some such (I’m STILL trying to get bane, 30% wipe D:) and haven’t had a chance to look things up. Well here it all is.

Int regen mechanics

So a thought in the back on my mind for a while now has been regarding int and healers (for those of you who don’t know, I seem to be drawn to healing on alts >.> I’d like to think I’m ‘ok’ at it at least) , being more specific, the “amazing” stat that int is for healers.

So here today, while bored at work I’m going to share my thought’s regarding this, make some minor conclusions and then talk about whats next. (yes, despite warlocks obvious superiority, I will occasionally talk about something not so warlock related >.>)

Bane of havoc

This has been one of my most popular posts, but the examples of where you could use it were all out of date. I somehow doubt many people want to know where they can use BoH in ICC and RS.

As such I’m going to give this post a little bit of a update.

Of warlock “nerfs” and other patchy stuff

Ok, so I logged in today, and like most warlocks I went straight to the target dummys. What did I find?

Thoughts on cataclysm

So heres are some of my thoughts about cataclysm. Not just the specific changes but what the developers seem to be trying to do with the game as a whole.

Cataclysm first impressions

So, for epic wootage, I finally got into the cataclysm beta. In case it isn’t obvious, spoilers after the break.
