BM Glyphs, BM Pets, Pet Specs and Shot Rotation

After I posted my spec yesterday, I realized I should have added the glyphs I use as well. I was reminded of this oversight when Dhallia commented asking about my glyphs, pet(s) and pet talent specs. My post wasn’t intended to be a look at how to maximize the class for DPS or PvP, but rather just an example of …

Arena Just Became Fun Once Again

I queued 36 matches last night with my former 2v2 Arms Warrior partner, and we pulled off 25 victories. Not too shabby considering the unorthodox composition of BM Hunter / Arms Warrior. This recent flirt with competitiveness has me especially geeked about 3.1. My Chimaera will be tearing faces off after the patch. 😉 He critted a Druid last night …

Hello… Is There Anybody In There… Just Nod If You Can Hear Me…

02/17 – Blue post from Ghostcrawler concerning 3.1, Hunters and PvP: We’re working to get 3.1 up soon. It won’t have all of the class changes in it initially though. Aside from the random stun of TNT and a couple of the bugs mentioned, we don’t think hunters are grossly imbalanced in PvP at the moment. Explosive Shot might be …

I’m still here, I swear

I feel bad about having only updated this site once in the past few weeks. Truth is, I’ve been busier than a one legged man in an ass-kicking contest. My time on the computer has been soaked up by working on other websites – some of them my projects, and some for clients. Whenever I’d sit down and think about updating this blog, I’d think “forget this, I’m gonna play instead”.

However, one of my late resolutions this year is to keep this site updated on a regular basis with interesting stories, helpful information and resources. While I’m not hardcore like BRK or some of the other number-crunchers out there, I do have some knowledge, input, and ideas that I intend to continue sharing. Since I’m not an active raider, don’t expect to see any dps comparison spreadsheets or anything like that. The main thing I care about is whether I can kill my opponent before they kill me. Don’t get me wrong… I like to maximize my dps for raids and so forth, but I’m more interested in the PvP side of things than achieving 5.32% more dps on my next Naxx run.

With the recent changes to Hunters, it remains to be seen how much time I’ll actually want to spend playing Garwulf (that is until they undo some of these excessive nerfs). I intend to stay Beast Mastery because it’s my favorite spec and it’s what Gar’s always been for the most part. I’ve played the other specs, but call it my dorky role-playing side or whatever, Garwulf is and always will be a Beast Mastery Hunter. Even if I considered re-speccing I wouldn’t now that I have Loque’nahak.
