Coming soon to an Azeroth near you

April 7, 2011 By Drach 10 Comments

Many thanks to Drach for helping to maintain the heartbeat around here. I apologize for the sudden post drop-off, but my time’s been devoted to much more important things as of late, so just be patient. I’ll return when I can. šŸ™‚ — Garwulf

RexxarHey guys! We here at the Lodge just wanted to drop a note to let you know what’s happening around here! Garwulf has been dealing with some real life stuff, so apologies for no recent posts lately, but hopefully we will have some fresh articles coming in the near future.

There are a lot of new things headed our way, and we hope that you all are just as excited as we are about the upcoming patch. Seems like there are numerous things for us hunters to look forward to, in addition to some of the other fun in-game changes on the horizon.

We are currently working on updating some of our guides around the Lodge, but since the new patch is about to drop, odds are we will wait to see how much that affects what we as hunters do before we get some more guides up and going. [Read more…] about Coming soon to an Azeroth near you

Trapping for Dummies

February 3, 2011 By Drach 22 Comments

…by a Dummy. šŸ˜‰

One of the awesome things about Cataclysm, is that we Hunters are being asked more and more to do something we are very good at, and have been good at for some time. But… it just hasn’t been as necessary. What I speak of is Crowd Control (CC)! You could say we’re kind of like bouncers — we only allow those we want to into the battle, and all others get iced!

CC is a very important and vital aspect of running dungeons in the new expansion. It’s also something that not many of us may be familiar with, as we were brought up in the ways of huntering during the Lich King era. Back then, trapping was something you did to bring some dinner home to the family, and had no necessity in dungeons, but that’s not the case anymore. [Read more…] about Trapping for Dummies

It’s official… Draenei no more

January 27, 2011 By Drach 24 Comments

Well, it has been done. I have been thinking about making a faction change for awhile, due to various reasons. Drach has been a Draeni (or space goat for you racists) for as long as time. I got bogged down on my server, and was getting frustrated with many of the people I was dealing with, and one of the good friends in my life wanted to roll Horde, so it just made sense.

Drach is now an Orc!

Orc Hunter

I decided to keep the name, because I like the name. šŸ˜‰ Now the character may look different, but he’s still Drach. So far this has been a great experience. At least on my server, the Horde are much friendlier and less like a feminine hygiene product that rhymes with ā€œspruce tagā€.

I’ve joined a terrific guild with a great bunch of people with an emotional maturity greater than a high school student, which is always great. There is another Hunter in my guild, actually quite a few, but one in particular that took me under his wing when he heard that I recently made the switch to Survival spec. He took me to the training dummies and helped me polish up my rotation. It was a lot of fun. We’ve actually got a Baradin Hold run set up for tonight that I’m hoping to make it to. šŸ˜€

So, what’s the point of this article you may be asking yourself? Well, many of you from the forums know that this has been a consideration of mine for awhile now, but also I wanted it serve as a motivator to not get stuck in a rut.

If you’re frustrated or unhappy with what’s going on for you in game… consider a change like mine. I never thought I would jump factions because I felt tied in to where I was, but now I’m really glad I decided to make the switch! I want to encourage those of you who feel stuck to consider shaking things up a bit. I’m not telling you to hop factions, but why not try something new – whether that means going with a new spec, taming that rare that you’ve been dreaming of, or even starting a new hunter and trying a different race’s starting quest line.

The point I’m trying to make is… we all get stuck at times and feel like there is nothing we can do to change, but there is. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results, so go out and shake things up a bit!

Although, I did get myself a little treat before swapping factions… I’m now a member of the SB6 club!

Loque'nahak

Peace!

What is this Dual Spec you speak of?

January 12, 2011 By Drach 33 Comments

Hunter Dual Spec

So I’ve managed to go my entire WoW career and never dual spec. Yea that’s right. I never saw any benefit in it really. I’ve been a BM (Bad Mofo) ever since I’ve started playing, and I have loved every minute of it. I truly never thought there was any reason for me to choose another spec.

And then Cata happens…

I’d managed to keep up my damage really well all throughout the dungeons I would run. It was not a big deal – I never really valued being the ā€œtop of the chartsā€ DPS guy anyway. I love my pets, and am a BM at heart and always will be.

So some of you are asking, Drach, why are you going on about all this… we know you’re a Bad Mofo, what are you trying to tell us..?ā€ [Read more…] about What is this Dual Spec you speak of?

We’ve got Spirit, yes we do. We’ve got Spirit, how ā€˜bout you?!

December 23, 2010 By Drach 6 Comments

Draenei Hunter, DrachOne of the many bonuses of the new expansion is new Spirit Beasts to go after! There’s nothing like a good Spirit Beast camping, so pull out your tent, grab some marshmallows for roasting, and don’t forget to bring Grandpa to tell his beloved campfire tales, ā€˜cause it’s time to go camping!

Before setting off you should know both of the new SB’s are level 85, so don’t be getting all excited unless you’re 85. If you are 85, then by all means let your excitement run wild! I myself happened to hit 85 mining… that’s right, not killing some epic beast, or toiling over some arduous quest, nope… mining. I about cracked up that what put me over the edge was one little Elementium node… Go mining!!! [Read more…] about We’ve got Spirit, yes we do. We’ve got Spirit, how ā€˜bout you?!
