Semi-relevant hooha.

I, in and of myself, am a WoTLK spoiler waiting to happen. And as such, I'm going to talk about it... a lot. I'm not in the beta, but I've got resources "spoiling" it for me, so if you don't want to hear about it and have it spoiled, feel free to avoid my blog until such a time as WoTLK comes out, or you change your mind. Keep in mind that I'll mostly just spoil huntery type goodness.

On that note: 2 new stable slot + Exotic pets. Vengeance has served me well, but the time comes when he needs to be upgraded. I'll be getting a Devilsaur in his stead. I'll still be getting a croc, but I'll have room for him so no need to replace any of my current pets with him. I'll also probably pick up one more random pet that'll be new to WoTLK...dunno what it's gonna be yet though.

The more I think about it, the more I like my 57/14/0 build. Deep BM, I will haz it. There's just a lot more cool things in the BM tree that'll add to its current awesomeness. I'll probably do an immediate respec when things go live for leveling purposes...and pet obtaining purposes...*shifty eyes*

*Random*
Aestara is back in action, and climbing her way back up the leveling ladder. Holy Priests are always useful, I just don't want to be one ;) Healing, not my thing. I like to have the mob intended for death targeted over the people killing said mob...unless they're getting me to do some CC, then I'm cool with sapping something else or dragging something off into my freezing trap.

I still have yet to convince Marcy to write something...How hard is it to convince someone that they're a good writer and then help give them inspiration? Apparently quite hard in this case. She's worried about screwing up the flow of the blog or something crazy like that...Frankly, I don't know what she's talking about, my posts rarely have good flow nowadays, and the few that did were my attempts at stories involving roguedom...Aw crap, now I feel like I've gotta write some more tales of roguedom...Oh well, I guess I'll be doing that when I'm bored and not working or something crazy like that.

I WISH I had something progress-like to inform the public on...but I just don't...Dram's still at about the same place he's been for a week or so, Thamlack hasn't done anything exciting, just gotten his enchanting up to the 330 region (at level 60, kick in the karma, eh?) and still needs to get his armored flaming steed.

The eldest Tox brethren is actually going at a very quick pace considering he's never gotten a toon past 26 pre-Beow (his current toon), so he very well may get into the outlands before WoTLK, which would be pretty sweet...even better if he could get to 70 (and give me and the rest of the gang a tank to work with/get gear for(good thing I've got well geared friends who know...oh crap, he's totally not gonna be able to hold aggro offa Marcy...that could be "fun", if we can manage to find a good healer))

Alright, that's enough outa me, Ima go do...probably something useful like eat.

Good Hunting,
Tox

Just some thoughts...

Combat swords is a better spec for most of what I was doing as a rogue, daggers are soooo yesterday... literally, my daggers have officially been replaced.

French Deathgnome, still a good idea, and he'll show up at one point or another. I'll just be leveling my mains first.

I've officially decided on the pets I'll be using in WoTLK, one for each skill group, and they'll be Strife (Cunning, Windserpent), Fury(Ferocity, Cat), and a currently unobtained, un-named croc tank. I'll figure that one out when they release the expansion, though name suggestions will be accepted starting............ now.

PvP...not my thing, though AV is kinda fun if you're part of the offensive... And somehow I managed to grind about 13000 honor in 3 days, so I'm semi proud of myself.

You know you're a geek when you have a dream about the expansion... and dream about crazy stuff like an infinite ammo item that you can only get from PvP, and therefore force yourself to do it. Yeah, I dreampt that one night.... I'm slightly ashamed...

So if you've been paying attention to my 'adventures' you'd probably realize that as a rogue, I haven't really done many instances in full groups. Last night I joined in a Heroic Ramps group (which I've done before) with the excuse to test out my new spec. Things went fairly smoothly, and at the end of it they apparently said then enjoyed my company and would be glad to have me back. To quote one of them talking about the group: "It's good to have a rogue who knows what's going on." Then they found out that I hadn't really done instances as a rogue, so the next comment was something along the lines of "I wouldn't have known by watching you, you did very well." This makes me a happy rogue. El Toxisimo knows his DPS classes ;)

I've been playing around with the WoTLK hunter talent builds, and this is what I've come up with as to what I want: Vantox, Master of Beasts.
And my combat swords rogue build, not sure how well it's gonna work though.

Apparently my Belfadin is in a fairly new guild...and already has a place of power...*shifty eyes*...

I'm contemplating working on a "new project" toon, and it's coming down to Mage or Druid...or another pally but on the ally side. Cast your vote, I may even work it out on a new server, or the realm of some blogger friend. On that note, I don't actually think anyone will vote, but it's fun to say.

And that's over with, time to go back into WoW and get, oh, I dunno.... probably some fishing done.

Good Hunting,
Tox
