Okay, so part 1 described what kind of players responded to my survey & how they heal currently (more people who played both 10 & 25-man raids. Other people played mostly 10-mans, or mostly 5-mans). Most raiders responding to my survey were planning on getting into Icecrown Citadel. The ...

I had 132 responses to my druid healer survey that I posted on the WoW druid forums. The survey & answers can be found here. I collected data from Nov 27 thru December 1st. I got a good sample of people using various playstyles, and I have enough data now to show clear trends in what people ...

For all the moonkin, we got our PvE buff.
Eclipse now increases damage done by Wrath by 40% (up from 30%) and the critical chance of Starfire by 40% (up from 30%)
So, that set bonus we lost? We just got back in the form of a direct buff to Eclipse.
For more info, see the post at Moonglade.

My shaman, Lissiel on Elune, finally hit 80! My goal over Thanksgiving break was to hit 80 on my shaman, and I met that goal!
I have an enhancement spec & a resto spec. I’m working on getting them geared up, and such. I’ll be doing some more shaman research soon and I’ll ...

Okay, so I’ve gotten a good start on compiling responses from the healing survey. I’m planning to collect data through Monday (when people come back from their holiday).
As a preview (and to get some feeback from all of you), I wanted to post the possible talent specs first. I ...

Hey everyone! I’m going to work on my 3.3 healing guide. However, before I do that – I want to get some input from all of you! I’m looking for people who are already level 80 who heal in PvE (either 5-mans or raids).
So, I created a short healer survey designed so that I can ...

I hope you all have a great Turkeykin day! I finished the meta-achievement for Pilgrim’s Bounty on my druid. I’m close to having it done on my shaman. I also got my shaman’s cooking skill up from 50 to over 300.
Turning rogues into turkeys was a difficult part of the ...

Okay, so one of the most common complaints by druids who are leveling feral is how bad it is to level from 10 to 20. These are usually druids who get bear form and try to plod away by mauling things to death for 10 levels. It’s pretty painful.
What bear gets from 10 to 20:

Okay, so the shared topic on Blog Azeroth is asking about what we think are the best changes that have happened to WoW in the last 5 years. Since I’ve been playing my druid for almost all 5 of those years (except for the couple months when I got frustrated by tree healing in BC), I ...

Okay, so it’s been a while since I asked for feedback on what spells moonkin need . At this point, I’ve isolated it to two new spells needed. Both need to be arcane school. One needs to be an instant-cast spell (single target) with a short cooldown. One needs to be a short cast time ...

Cataclysm
So, for the last couple of weeks, I have been feeling pretty nostalgic. I have been playing WoW since about a week or two after the game first came out. So, in preparation for Cataclysm, I wanted to visit all the zones and pick up my World Explorer achievement. I just had a handful of zones ...

Okay, so I started working on a couple big blog post projects. Some of these are going to take a long time to work out, so I wanted to give you an early weekend preview while I spend more time working on them. Here are my short-term blog writing goals over the next couple of weeks:

So, Pilgrim’s Bounty begins this Sunday, the 22nd and lasts thru the 28th.
This is the first time where turkeykin hunting season is being recognized as an actual in-game holiday, much to the dismay of all the turkeykin who will be ruthlessly tracked and hunted down this season. However, ...

Raid instances need trash mobs for several reasons:
Helps with pacing of raid content. It slows down the raiding group so they can’t blow through content as fast. Part of the problem with the 10 & 25-man ToC instance is that we complete it too fast. Without any trash mobs to ...

The moon chicken or the egg?
Okay, so I usually plan & write posts a day in advance when I can, and then I schedule things to post after I go to bed (which is why often I have posts at odd hours of the morning). I have a really good idea for what I want to do for my next thoughtful ...

This post was received in my mail from Verdantazia. I thought it was a really interesting perspective, so I got permission to post it as a guest post. Enjoy! I’m doing my oral comps defense today (Monday), so I thought today would be a great day to have a guest poster! – Lissanna

Okay, so Big Bear Butt Blogger’s guild (Sidhe Devils) hosted a cancer awareness walk in honor of Julie, a guild member of theirs who was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. The donations to their cause raised over $1600! Somewhere between 100 and 200 people came out to celebrate. A group ...

Okay , so I got frustrated at poor leafshine’s post today. Why? Well, because she says that the pace of the game is just right – and that the average player is happy just doing the same content over and over and over again – and that anyone who is unhappy with the game right ...

Congrats Toskk on the item that Blizzard named after you ! We miss you!
Toskk quit playing back in August , and Blizzard decided to recognize all his hard work and dedication to the druid class by naming an item after him. They did a similar thing when BRK & Phaelia quit, as well. Our ...
