Phaelia Welcome, Karthis!

A special welcome goes out to Karthis of Garona, author of one of the newest Druid blogs, Of Teeth and Claws. His first content article, Setting the Pace tackles the topic of ensuring that a group doesn’t stagnate. He includes such considerate tips as monitoring regular mana usage to gauge whether a particular party member needs additional preparation time before the next pull. Here’s a snippet of what he writes:

With very few exceptions, a group cannot progress without the designated tank being ready to accept an enemy’s ire – mass death usually results from an ill-prepared tank. So, the first thing you must ensure is that you are ready. Your hit points must be at full (so bring food if your healers neglect this), you must be adequately buffed (try to remember Thorns, and also check if your Pally buff is still up), and you must know what you are tanking next. This should take a matter of seconds.

Be sure to check out Of Teeth and Claws and help make him feel welcome!

The Sprout(ed) Seed (87)

15 short years till he wants to borrow the car! Cheers!

As much as I loved writing Resto4Life and am enjoying playing again (even if in a very limited capacity), I don’t have the time to devote to blogging anymore. Instead, I’ve been learning2play from Keeva at TreeBarkJacket.com and Lissanna at Restokin.com. :-) I am excited that BRK is back, though!

Soooo, with BRK back in action, I’m wondering if Phae will get recruited too.

The Belkin Nostromo N52 TE (73)

Hi, Too bad this blog is no longer maimtained. Thanks for you post though. I wanted to address the issue of lefties. I am on, and use the N52TE. I use a trackball with my right hand and the n52TE with my left, no problems.

I didn’t read the pages upon pages of comments so I don’t know if these issues have already been hit, but I can think of two things as a boomkin/tank druid that have helped immensely with my nostromo. First off, turn off the diagonals on the D-pad. Wow kindof accounts for these innately by combining vert/horizontal key presses. Having the nostromo keyed to do this is redundant and screws up movement. The second is key spam macro’s. I have my nostromo 6 buttom set to...

Sweet thanks for sharing! And i thought I was the only one disappointed in WoW’s art and character customization! Let’s hope Cataclysm has more in the works of real visual art like this instead of middle school quality graphic farts!
Direct Healing in Wrath (103)

Phaelia
@Otta: This article is out of date and no longer relevant. I understand Nourish is now the preferred choice over Regrowth, though you should keep a RG on your tank for its HoT component. As the methods for finding this information are explained, someone should be able to apply them along with the new values to create an updated comparison. I, however, am not that person. :-)

Otta
Ok, just found this post, and it’s long and interesting, quick dumb question tho, the numbers for nourish with hots, is that the healing both by the nourish alone or also the hots that are running? I used to use regrowth and now use nourish, debate is whether to switch back. I also am specced into tranquil spirit – am guessing thats weird comapred to this info!
