I feel like I'm nitpicking but I'm a bit of a lore buff. Anub'rekhan wasn't actually the crypt lord that accompanied Arthas to the Frozen Throne. That was Anub'arak, who can be found in heroic Azjol'Nerub.<BR/><BR/>Anub'rekhan doesn't really have much place in the lore of warcraft besides as a spider lord who served under Anub'arak before they became Crypt Lords.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190673057769546823.post-4153419898458757502009-01-10T14:07:00.000-05:002009-01-10T14:07:00.000-05:00just wanted to add that hearthing to the cantrips ...just wanted to add that hearthing to the cantrips and crows tavern in the sewers has helped reduce my lag problemsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190673057769546823.post-89649601355535981922009-01-10T08:24:00.000-05:002009-01-10T08:24:00.000-05:00So I'm not the only one who has that problem with ...So I'm not the only one who has that problem with Dal!

And as always, thanks for the blog plug :)<BR/><BR/>For Naxx, if you go back again, use Seal of the Martyr *everywhere*, with the exception of these fights:<BR/>Loatheb (if you don't trust your healers)<BR/>Gluth (if you don't trust yourself to hold back after Decimate and before getting healed)<BR/>Sapphiron (because the constant frost damage is a biatch)<BR/><BR/>Other than that, cut yourself with SotM to do more DEE PEE ESS.

There is a place to stand that is safe for both the 2nd and 3rd wave. That said, I wouldn't try it.<BR/><BR/>What I did this week that worked well was to drop an engineering flare on a very safe spot in each zone. Tankadins have so much threat right now that it is no problem to take a couple seconds to drop that (also, Heigan doesn't hit for much - the only serious damage comes from those waves and from the disease which has to be cleansed ASAP).<BR/><BR/>Some folks put flares up before the fight, but I like to be 100% sure and just put them up during the first Phase 1. <BR/><BR/>Also, a lot of people will tell you not to stand on any cracks - bologna. The safe zones encompass cracks. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, grats on a very successful first run! I know my first run in Naxx (just a couple weeks ago) was totally exciting. I always get kind of giddy and nervous the first time we raid something.<BR/><BR/>Fedaykin98Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190673057769546823.post-44954134916247518562009-01-09T13:59:00.000-05:002009-01-09T13:59:00.000-05:00It was nice to run with you again Honors.Couple th...It was nice to run with you again Honors.<BR/><BR/>Couple things:<BR/>1: We were pulling fast because the trash is pretty easy in there and I have complete confidence in my healers. Also because we are dropping down to 2 nights of raiding next week, and we need to start pulling faster if we're gonna do full clears of Naxx, Malygos and Sarth + Drakes.<BR/><BR/>2. I definitely could have shown you exactly where the break points are for the Heigan fight, but honestly it's much more fun just give a brief explanation and let people see it for themselves. The fight can be done with 5 people still alive so I wasn't worried about people dying :)<BR/><BR/>3. Don't feel bad / embarrassed about getting loot. None of us have any problems with loot going to you when / if you run with us again. Also the loot you got was not gonna be used / needed by anyone else.<BR/><BR/>Was fun and I'm glad you enjoyed your first time in there.Ellevishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01422932444285458187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190673057769546823.post-34659160764963777212009-01-09T12:27:00.000-05:002009-01-09T12:27:00.000-05:00Yeah, you're seriously gimping your DPS by not usi...Yeah, you're seriously gimping your DPS by not using Seal of the Martyr... when I'm ret (on rare occaisons), I can basically use almost every cooldown in FCFS, including Consecrate without running out of mana, and I don't even need to hit Divine Plea exactly on the cooldown.<BR/><BR/>The only places where it might not be safe to use Martyr is on Loatheb and Gluth. Loatheb is actually a fight where you'll get a lot more mileage out of alternating judgements - judge wisdom just after his necrotic aura comes out, then on the next judge (roughly) judge light so it's up for the break. But JoL isn't such a huge heal (ditto with Divine Storm), that I'd focus more on DPS. You won't be able to spam consecrate, but you might be able to use Sacred Shield to absorb some of the Martyr backlash and still use it. Otherwise you can play it safe and use Seal of Command for that fight.<BR/><BR/>Similarly with Gluth, he does a Decimate that drops you to 5% -- if you can hold off on DPS during that time, Martyr is probably safe, but I'd probably use Command for that reason.<BR/><BR/>The trick with Heigan is as soon as you see the flames in Phase 2, run just past where the flames shot up, which will make you safe for the next eruption.. It always starts on the left-hand side of the room (facing the boss), and then goes 1-2-3-4-3-2-1Argenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07908845315588176801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190673057769546823.post-88703071215116969532009-01-09T12:08:00.000-05:002009-01-09T12:08:00.000-05:00It was great to have you with us Honors!It was great to have you with us Honors!Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11223993249651089731noreply@blogger.com
