Out of Whack
As with all of us trees at the moment, I am a very powerful raid healer. There’s no question that the spells I have been given combine with the raid encounters Blizzard has created for current conent to make Druid healers exceptionally strong. This is proven to me every time I raid. Our druids pump out [...]
ROFLStomping the Raid and the New TOL
I watched the Blizzard Developer chat unfold on Twitter last night and thought there was some pretty good news for us trees coming up in Cataclysm. Tranquility, for example, will be raid wide, last as long, but gain additional tics from haste. Hoorah! The New and Improved Tree of Life On a Cooldown TM (Batteries [...]
Forming: An Opinion on Tree Form in Cataclysm
Hey, hey, everyone! It’s been ages and ages since I’ve posted here. I enjoyed the break for the most part, and was considering letting my account with the hosting company lapse and letting Rolling Hots roll right off into the sunset. But there were many, many topics over these months that I considered posting about while I [...]
Ya fights to the finish cause you eats me spinach
There’s a really interesting conversation going on over on the official healing forum right now about how to make healing more interesting. The gist of Ghostcrawler’s position is that healing becomes boring when the content becomes outgeared or healing mechanics become too powerful. Whereas DPS can still have fun by trying to bring a boss [...]
The October 21st Post Wherein Sylly Looks Like an Idiot
Sometimes it doesn’t matter how much you know, how much experience you have, how skilled or talented or team oriented or fan-freakin-tastic. There are times when you just do something so goofy that no one can save you from yourself. /sigh. So let me tell you about my day.
Should Rejuv be more hasty?
Ghostcrawler dropped a bit of a mind bend on the official forms today in regard to haste and its attractiveness or lack thereof on classes that deal in HOTs and DOTs. Read for yourselves: We are trying to make haste a slightly more attractive stat for classes that utilize a lot of damage or healing [...]
I, Spambot
Hahahah! My Photoshopping is cracking me UP this morning! Eat your heart out, Will Smith! Ok, ok, so my version isn’t perfect and it’s kind of messy and yaddah, yaddah, yaddah. It’s still cracking me up. =) Besides, I had to clone stamp out an entire Will Smith AND add a Spam costume. /rofl! Sorry, [...]
That VuhDo that You Do
One of my raidmates recently mentioned something about his UI during a raid and brought up an addon I had never before heard of, VuhDo. My big ol’ pointy ears perked up immediately, as VuhDo was, apparently, a raid frame addon which is highly functional for healers, along the lines of Grid. I did some [...]
Tree Mail: Finding Mana in Northrend
It’s time for tree mail! Woot woot! Tree Mail is the section of the blog here that I devote to answering reader questions. Today’s question has to do with keeping up mana and comes from Naomi, a druid who is new to healing and who has just hit level 70. Yesterday once I hit Northrend [...]
Druid Healing Guide is live! RAWR!
The last tanking guide in the four part series is now up, Tank Triage: Healing Druids. This time I have Elathan Nephis, from Two Classy Liquidnight The Big Bear Butt, from The Big Bear Butt to thank for their time and contributions to helping us healers become better at what we do by adding to [...]
