World of Warcraft: How I’m Spending My Runes/Charms, Valor Points and Pushing Forward
With 10 level 90s, I have to managed to gear them up pretty decently. Right now, my lowest geared toon is ilvl 487 (with my highest being 504). I’m almost complete in running each one through Throne of Thunder but the entire process is extremely time consuming. As a result, I’m forced to plan a…

World of Warcraft: Annoying LFR Ji-Kun Bug
Tonight I got into a reasonable LFR group for part 2 of Throne of Thunder. On the last boss, some warlocks ended up creating a mass of Demonic Gateways. Now, normally I would have thought that this would be a good way of handling the Down Draft and I might have tried a similar thing…

World of Warcraft: LFR Troll/Griefer Spreadsheet/Blacklist
The other day I got into an LFR Throne of Thunder run where some goofball warrior decided to grief the group by pulling Dark Animus over and over. Although we managed to votekick the guy, he managed to still grief us at the last second. Obviously, people like this feel that there is no accountability…

World of Warcraft: Throne of Thunder LFR Guide (for the Uber Casual DPS Player) Part 4
Now, for the final part of this guide. Part 4. By now, you should be pretty pumped to defeat the current adversary of LFR. And the final encounters are more or less decent with Lei Shen being mid to hard depending on your group. At this stage, I think most groups can one shot him…

World of Warcraft: Throne of Thunder LFR Guide (for the Uber Casual DPS Player) Part 3
Now, it’s time for Halls of Flesh-Shaping. Let’s get started. The first thing is that you’ll be faced with a bunch of swamp like-monsters circling around a platform. As you DPS down these foes, occasionally you’ll be ported over into a purplish-maze and must fight a tiny creature. Keep in mind how this maze-like prison…

World of Warcraft: Throne of Thunder LFR Guide (for the Uber Casual DPS Player) Part 2
Again, I’m writing this series just because I’ve gone through Throne of Thunder LFR so many times that I wanted to share my experience (and frustrations) with others who might be in a similar predicament. Also, I wanted to split up this blog to make it easier to digest as the entire thing will end…

Some notes on the upcoming reputation/valor point change to gear is that pre-Throne of Thunder gear will cost Justice Points and cost between 1250-2250 points while having their reputation requirement removed. Shado-Pan Assault gear will have the reputation requirement for honored level gear reduced to friendly while the overall Valor Point cost will be reduced…

World of Warcraft: New Loot System Idea
By now, I’m certain the vast majority of people probably feel that the LFR loot system is quite awful. You hear it on the forums all the time. Blizzard seems to want to retain the slot machine mentality behind the loot system because for them it’s because a horribly lazy way to continue to put…

World of Warcraft: Priest Hits 90 and Starts LFR Runs Almost Immediately
So my plan for leveling and gearing my priest up mostly worked. The leveling process in the end was a pretty big headache. It felt like it took far too long and I ended up doing more quests than on my rogue. Not sure if there’s an experience discrepancy between the two classes, but I…

World of Warcraft: Rogue at 90 But Massively Frustrated Again
I made a big push to get my rogue to 90 today. That’s make my 9th level 90 toon, leaving only my priest and monk. I think I’ll probably just not bother with my monk, seeing how much time and effort leveling the rest of my toons took. But overall, I will say that it…
