Forum Warrior

So over the weekend I made a post on WHA calling out how all destro are terrible players and that they have no good premades and that they only know how to zerg.  Which I still stand by for the most part.  Anyway what I am getting at is that the forums have gotten to nice.  No one is flexing there epeen anymore on there.  Instead everyone is saying how good the other side is and how much they like each other and they are saying congrats for little things and such.  I am tired of it.  I want people to start calling out people for getting owned in an SC or in ORvR.  I want each side to hate each other, which they should.  I want epeen waving everywhere.  So get to it.

Excited

You know I am excited where the game is heading right now.  With what I have been reading it sounds like Mythic is starting to listen to there players and are implementing some things that players have wanted for awhile.

Mythic has basically stated that they are added something else to SCs.  Now there is some speculation as to what that is going to be, whether premade vs premade SCs (which I hope) or cross server SCs, either will be nice and hopefully add a new challenge for the players in the game.

Another thing that they are adding is RvR weapons.  I am more excited about this than anything else.  The reason being is that I get to upgrade my weapon hopefully.  All that I have heard is that they are implementing RvR weapons and that it will be nice to have good weapons that aren't from PvE.

There are some other things that I have heard but these are the 2 big ones that I am excited for the most.  I can't wait to see what they will do in January and with 1.3.4.

The Perfect 6-Man

What is the perfect 6-man group.  There are many different group setups out there in the Warhammer Realm, such as the generic 2 tank, 2 healer, 1 mdps, and 1 rdps.  There is also the AoE bomb group.  The 1 tank, 2 healer, and 3 dps group or the melee train group.  I don't think there is such a thing as a perfect group setup.  Other people may disagree with that, but I really think that any group can excel with who ever it is in it.  

With that said there are group setups that I favor more than others.  I think my favorite group setup is starts with Me of course well a KotBS at least.  Then we go with another tank probably a IB.  Then the healers are a RP and a AM.  For dps my favorite to group is a WH and a Slayer.  Here are my reasons.

A KotBS because of our auras.  We are the best group tank in the whole game with our auras running.  I can make enemies in the area 10% more likely to be crit, while increase the healing doing to the group by 15%.  We support the whole group with our utility.  Plus with this single target group AoE stagger is king.

An IB because as a tank they have the best burst damage out of anyone.  They can also survive a lot longer with what they can run.  Plus the have gromil plating which is a very nice morale.  They also have an AoE snare which is very powerful.

A RP because they have great group heals and good single target heals.  They have the self rez ability which has saved our group many times before in different situations.  There ruins are also very nice to have.  They can also have very good survivability compared to an AM.

An AM because they are the best single target healer in the game imo.  They have an ap drain which doesn't make them run out of ap very often.  Plus they also have the viability to go dps if need be and they can be a force as a dps.

A WH and a Slayer because you can have the Slayer run up front and have all the enemies focus on him as the WH sneaks in the back to gank there healers.  The Slayer has the best survivability of any dps and with guard is hard to take down.  While the WH can just demolish any healer they are on if played right.

Well those are just my thoughts on it.  I like running with every class but I just have the must fun running with those classes not matter who it is.  If you feel like it post your favorite six man to run in.

Watch Out

So last night was a very interesting night for our guild.  It was also a night that could change things for order on this server imo.  Some drama happen that I won't get into but with what was said and with what happened last night this could possibly change things for us and for order on Gorfang.  It is a growing development but for some reason I have a good feeling about this and I will go into more details as it happens.

Another thing I have been thinking about is that I want a new two hander.  I am tired of using the Gutbeaters, and yes I have the lotd weapon.  I just need the claymore of the sandstorm.  There is a good post on WHA in our forums about the dps of each weapon and how bad the Gutbeaters is compared to the others which I find wrong.  I find my dps to be higher with the Gutbeaters than with any other weapon.  But what I really want is the lotd two hander that you can get from killing the world boss or from the palace sub-bosses.

Also just throwing this out there but I am awesome.  Anyone who doesn't agree, well I will prove you wrong.

Tank Kills Across Servers

So as I said I would I compiled a list of total tank kills of the top 10 tank for order and destro across the four american servers, Gorfang, Iron Rock, Badlands, and Volkmar.  I know it is already outdated but this will give you an idea of who is being played with how many kills and so on.  Plus I was bored and decided to do it.  A couple of things, KPRR is Kills Per Renown Rank.  I would have also liked to use RP (renown points) instead of RR (renown rank), but it would have been to hard and the numbers would have been small.  Ok here it goes, I hope I did everything right.

Ok there you have it.  A few things.  No surprise that Chosen is at the top then IBs and Knights.  I am kind of surprised with how high RR Knights are.  My server is basically at the bottom of the list which makes me sad.  Destro tanks need to pick it up to catch the order tanks.  We have a commanding lead.

Knight Kills

Ok I am working on a tank kill list of who is the top tank according to kills.  I am doing a full thing on the Knights with names and all because I am a Knight, then I will later on post the server stats of kills and renown of other tanks.  Well you will see what is going on.  Here is the top 40 Knights on the servers.

Badlands
Avg. Kills - 35645.3 Avg. RR - 74.1 Avg. KPRR - 48.1
Gorfang
Avg. Kills - 35965.6 Avg. RR - 74.5 Avg. KPRR - 482
Volkmar
Avg. Kills - 45706 Avg. RR - 78.1 Avg. KPRR - 585
Iron Rock
Avg. Kills - 38157.5 Avg. RR - 75.1 Avg. KPRR - 508
Total of all server
Avg. Kills - 38868.6 Avg. RR - 75.45 Avg. KPRR - 515

A couple disclaimers.  First off Avg. Kills is the average total kills they have.  KPRR means kill per renown rank.  I would have rather used total renown points for better accuracy but that would have been to hard.  I will do the other tanks later on just with no names.  Oh and if someone can get me the stats from the other servers that would be great then I can do a complete list.

The King is Down.

That is right the King got killed. To bad it wasn't by us it was by destro. They finally killed Karl Franz, which I was expecting to happen sooner than it did. I am more angry that we didn't kill the king first than them killing the our king. I am not angry about the gear though. I really don't think sovereign gear is that great and I don't think it will be that big of an advantage or any advantage at all over us. If the weapons were dropping than that would be a different story but they are not so ehh.
Our group did reach the destro king the other day when we push to stage 2, but we didn't get a chance to fight them because of it being bugged out due to the final boss we killed. Oh well. I am now full warlord so when we do go we will have a pretty much a full warband of fully warded players. We are a little low of rdps and healers but that isn't as important as tanks and mdps having wards. I figure after about 2 or so tries at the destro king we will have him killed.

On another note I still find it insane that mythic makes stage 2 and the palace so much easier for destro than order. Our two pqs each one basically takes about the whole time to do so we can only down one pq in that time, with a full warband, while destro can basically 6 man one instance. Also at Altdorf Palace they have champions as guards with heroes as bosses while in IC we have heroes as guards and Lords as bosses. Makes no freaking sense to me.
