Thus, when you DPS, you should always be behind the mob.<br /><br />Easy way to get behind the mob and know you're safe?<br /><br />Pets from Warlocks, Hunters, and DKs always go directly behind the mob (if the pet doesn't have aggro).<br /><br />So stand on the pet and let her rip!<br /><br />-FriFriday Macfayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00488340330212549021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468877507401817290.post-38597716884532674542009-08-23T11:33:51.479-05:002009-08-23T11:33:51.479-05:00Hiya Droog!
Good question!
When attacking a mob ...Hiya Droog!<br /><br />Good question!<br /><br />When attacking a mob or boss from the front, there is a chance for the bad guy to dodge, block or parry the blow. In this case, our main concern is Parry. <br /><br />http://www.wowwiki.com/Parry<br /><br />If a mob gets a successful Parry on your Bladestorm's whirlwinds (or any other melee attack), it speeds up the mobs next swing. That speed up means that whoever has aggro, your tank in this case, is gonna take damage faster.<br /><br />It is particularly dangerous when you're doing back to back Whirlwind attacks against multiple mobs. Say, the tank has four mobs on her. You hit each one repeatedly over 6 seconds. Any parry's are gonna add up fast, particularly in this type of situation where the tank is already taking loads of damage from multiple mobs at once.<br /><br />Even big tanks can't take damage that fast. The healer just can't keep up.<br /><br />The reason you want to make sure the tank has locked down threat, and you have ZERO aggro, is because you can't do ANYTHING while Bladestorm is running. That means if you do pull aggro, you can't block, dodge, or parry, or switch stances. The only thing protecting you is your Armor and STAM. If you go for that little extra punch and pop Bladesstorm in Zerker stance, you're also taking extra damage. <br /><br />That's a recipe for a face plant.<br /><br />So, never when you have aggro, and always with the butt side facing you. :)<br /><br />Or put the other way:<br /><br />Always wait to Bladestorm until the tank has established threat and always be standing behind the mob(s) when you go all whirly.<br /><br />Hope that helps!<br /><br />-FriFriday Macfayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00488340330212549021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468877507401817290.post-33095927499008906292009-08-18T11:02:05.970-05:002009-08-18T11:02:05.970-05:00Excellent post.

I love the awesome DPS, but I die so often.<br /><br />But I don't understand your comment, "By the same token, never, ever, ever pop Bladestorm in front of a group of mobs your tank is holding. That just piles damage on her. Lots. Bad form. Always Bladestorm with the butt side facing."<br /><br />What do you mean by "in front of a group of mobs"? And, "Always BS with the butt side facing"?<br /><br />Again, thanks for such a great analysis of a great tool.<br /><br />Droog, of HydraxisDennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03565229454575729444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468877507401817290.post-60278594641203195002009-08-16T14:16:03.303-05:002009-08-16T14:16:03.303-05:00lol!

I could probably write a whole blog about your blog. :D You always have the best topics.<br /><br />I tried Arenas one time and just couldn't get into it. :/ I like the controlled chaos of the battlegrounds.

"Squee!"<br /><br />There we go.<br /><br />I'm a big fan of battlegrounds and WG when teamwork plays a big part in the win. I used to do arenas with the family, but they were too intense and ... well, I just never wanted to make the time to do them. I had a twos team with my husband for Wrath, but even then it was hard to find time for our 10 matches because some weeks that was one of just a few times for "us time" and I prefer actually <i>seeing</i> him for couple time.<br /><br />I also have to second your advice that PVPers learn what the game <i>is</i> before they get into it. It helps quite a bit if you know the objectives. ^_^;Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07275637177494490776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468877507401817290.post-90453427182290403012009-07-23T12:44:40.867-05:002009-07-23T12:44:40.867-05:00Thanks for the link, Friday! ^_^Thanks for the link, Friday! ^_^Pixelated Executionerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11916799278787211319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468877507401817290.post-41721629703515338522009-07-22T21:36:34.763-05:002009-07-22T21:36:34.763-05:00Hey David!

I found it in Stranglethorn off a dead goblin.<br /><br />Okay is not that bad but still...<br /><br />At least there's a few decent options now (and hopefully coming up) for the more casual player. I grabbed the The Claymore of the Prophet from the Argent Tournament and it's a pretty good sword. And the gun is cheaper than crafted one and not too bad at all (Blunderbuss of Khaz Modan). I'm hopin' they'll add a full "Crusader" gear set for all classes and specs, but that's prolly askin' too much.<br /><br />I would really, really rather stay with plate... but let's face it, I'm not gonna be seeing the inside of Ulduar anytime soon. Or most heroics for that matter. This is kinda good actually, for Arms Warriors that are more casual. IT simplifies the stats ya need. Hit to cap, crit crit crit, strength and expertise as much as possible. If ArP is there great... if not... that's fine too.<br /><br />Too much maths is not good for me. Enjoying your posts, btw. TY for doing all that testing. :D<br /><br />And no maces for me. I like axes sometimes... but I'm all about a nice sword! I'll stick with those and be happy. Hope the one you're after drops!
