Gates of Hell Tanking – Nailed

One day before opening of the second wing, I've decided to try tanking the first one. Besides the perfect timing, Melaris is closing in 52 on her tanking weapon, and she also had a quest and no first wing runs yet. So I decided to give it a go. It went surprisingly smooth. Our second …

Mostly Pictures

I guess there's gonna be more screenshots than text today. So, first of all, I did a new cool transmog for Bons :) The fantasy is a highwayman, because I got a bit tired of the knight in shining armor :) Second, I've queued to EN and TN raids yesterday with a pair of leather toons. …

I Bathe in Blood

My previously unplayed spec mastering continues, and the recent acquisition is Blood spec of Death Knights. It's interesting how Death Knights never work for me on the first try. It required five DK characters to start a proper Death Knight toon until I got the idea and reveled in Frost. Mastering Unholy a month ago …

Prepared for Legion: Outsider Alts

After assembling my Feat of Strength Team yesterday, I've made an important toon toggle between realms. Gottenbar the Tauren Warrior was the second warrior on my main EU-Fordragon realm. I transferred him to EU-Azuregos where my other alts dwell to free a slot. And Baisa the Shadow Priest moved to EU-Fordragon - to become the priest there. *Funny …

Household Chores & Tanking BRF

Two completely unrelated topics. Oluu & Her Tanking Towards Epic Ring I stepped into Blackrock Foundry yesterday. Tanking went extremely easy. I failed just once at Gruul - I failed to notice one of his infernal *swish* in time, and when I just started to move to a group of players, I was dead. The …

Newbie Monk Tanking: Skyreach

A big thing happened yesterday: Oluu tanked her first dungeon in current content. Of course she tanked through her leveling before. But "current content" issue is important, because gear and abilities are tuned better, so it will give you the proper class feeling. You may one-shot and show the best DPS than DPS-players in most of leveling dungeons, or …

Trivia: Leveling & Midsummer

Midsummer Midsummer Fire Fest is here, and I'm busy again. Probably it's the last holiday event where I got some things to do. Of course I will be running Hallow's End and Brewfest bosses for mounts, but I have all the achievements and toys from every holiday already - except Midsummer. There are three toys …

Beginner’s Tanking Issues

So, the reasons I've started my new monk were these: Altoholism - because there are 3 more months until Legion with nothing to do. Tanking - I want to dig this role a bit more. I already have a Protection Warrior which will no longer  be Gladiator in Legion, so I'll play two tanking toons. …

Yet Another Tanking Day

Yesterday I proceeded with my tanking. It was the third tanking night in my life, and it was Destructor's Rise this time. As I recall from my epic ring tome collecting being dps, it was the most complex wing save Archimonde. While Zakuun has always died easily, like a grey mob, there were always multiple wipes at …

First Steps in Tanking

I think I have found myself a new fun in WoW, and it's TANKING. I've never tanked properly. I was completely lost at starting tanking experience with paladin and warrior. Dungeon mobs just kept running everywhere, so I didn't make it far after level 25-30 or so. I guess it was Summer when I gave …
