So last night I was lucky enough to get Deathbringer's Will on my rogue. We then split into 10-mans and all seemed pretty fine and dandy until we got to the gunship battle. Apparently, all the shapeshift forms EXCEPT the Taunka are bugged. How I found this out...you can't use your jet pack if you're shape-shifted by the trinket (or mount). Clicking off the buff didn't seem to work either. So me = *panic* I can't get off the shiiiiip!" *dead*
I noticed that Blue posts acknowledged it at least, so hopefully they'll fix it soon, @_@

I was thinking about how it will be when Cataclysm hits.
Remember when Outland and Northrend each opened up? No one knew where the instances were and they had to hunt their way there. That won't be the case this time, people could practically sit in a capital city and level using dungeons. Good? Bad? I dunno, just interesting.
I hope Blizzard puts in a reason to visit the entrances of dungeons - it would be kind of sad to go through an entire expansion and never REALLY know where the entrance to [instance] is. Maybe if you'd have to go and touch the meeting stone to attune for the dungeon in the finder.
Any other thoughts on how this will affect things after an expansion launch, when everyone's leveling and not at level cap yet?

Hello, ladies. :)
I've done some rummaging around the interwebz but can't really find anything that directly answers my question, so I come to you!
In 3.3 a new resto druid glyph was released, which causes your haste to decrease the amount of time between "ticks" of Rejuvenation. I'm sitting around 500 haste unbuffed right now, not including my Nature's Grace procs. I currently am using the nourish, wild growth, and swiftmend glyphs. Would it be beneficial to replace wild growth with rapid rejuvenation? I'm not really a theory crafter, so I was just curious about this. I'm not entirely sure how much WG adds to my healing.
I guess I should just use the tried-and-true method of experimentation. I was just curious if any of you trees have made the switch and why or why not.
EDIT: This would primarily be for Icecrown 10/25m fights, as our guild rarely does ToC anymore.

If you are of the appropriate level, but of the opposite faction, is (specifically) Ragefire or Stocks an option for you in the RDF?

Yes, I am back.
I've been using heal bot with my Shammy, and is there any way to move the grid from the middle of the screen to the bottom right or left hand corner. Being in the middle kinda annoys me and I can't see what's in front of me very well.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Problem solved, man I feel really stupid it was such a simple fix.
Thanks ladies.

Last night i was running random heroics on my DPS DK with two guildies and a pug tree healer and mage. We were doing H FoS and coming up to the last boss, my guidlie teased me about my alchemy trinket ( i havent been 80 that long and am yet to have a good one drop, and not enough badges quite yet) and linked me needle encrusted scorpion as loot from the next boss....
.....Well it drops! and i have a masive squeeee because the only other melee DPS in the group is my guildie and i knew he wouldn't take it.
Im looking around in my bags for a few moments (yes i do blonde things) before i realise the TREE HAS NINJAD IT...
I asked him could i please have it seeing as im melee dps as my first spec, and he snidely replies "No I need what i need" and drops group then and there
Ninja's make me sad.

(I was going to post this to
dear_gnome but it has art in it. So I want to share the art with everyone!)
Dear feral druid
You signed up to be DPS. Which means, you DPS. Me? I signed up to the tank. That's why I'm here with a shield on my back.
You'd think DPS would be a bit more appreciative and happy with a tank that a) is pulling quick enough and b) wants to actually tank.
I wasn't too concerned about the DPS pulling off me, because frankly, it wasn't my fault. When it seemed obvious that you were confused as to which target I was on (yes, warrior tanks are going to tab target around a bit so it's not always the best thing to rely on just my focus target), I started marking. Kill that one first. The rest don't matter after that cause I'm pretty solidly established on them. Big skull marks don't seem to matter though because two of you kept attacking the wrong target and pulling it off me. My pocket healer offered to leave with me, but I just rolled my eyes and said the practice was good and it wasn't crazy chaotic pulling off me.
But then you, you crazy ass feral druid, started going into bear and pulling shit, then dropping into cat when I picked things up. Scuze me? If you're not the tank, stop it. I asked you to stop it. I politely said "if you're not the tank, please stop pulling". The correct response to that is to... I dunno... stop fucking pulling? The incorrect response was turning into a bear and flat out pulling the next group.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?

My healer and I stood back and I said "you want to tank it then, you tank it". Her comment was "I'm not healing you". The three of you managed to live through that pull with the bear tanking. Great! That means you don't need me! So I congratulated you on tanking and said you could tank the rest! And then the healer and I dropped group.
Eff you.
Sorry to the rogue that seemed to be the only decent player out of the DPS. You stealthed up nicely, did tricks all the time, and did a good job. Casualty of war and all that. The other two were asshats and made it onto our ignore lists. It's one thing to make my tanking job difficult by just not paying attention, it's another thing completely to just flat out ignore what I said and barrel ahead.
No love to you and yours, and I hope you didn't finish cause I honestly don't think you guys could three man the last bit of trash before the boss, even if the pally and druid picked up the tank and healer roles. Cause you guys weren't *that* geared to be acting like your shit was the awesomesauce.

I'm tired about all the cracks about the tank not needing Arcane Brilliance. Have you ever taken a moment to think about what goes into a good Taunt? Sure, you can insult someone in your own species without pausing to think--but can you make him so angry that he forgets the the pain of that fireball he just took? Can you do it in a different language? To a different species? To things that aren't even flesh, or alive? Go into a warrior's home and look for the shelf of thick books. Those are the texts from his Taunt class. They're continuously updated to keep up with new species and cultural trends affecting what insults sting the most.
It's mostly rote memorization, of course. The top lines for each race are kept current by representatives of each one's tanking classes. For nonsapient species there are research tanks who'll go into the wilderness and imitate the sounds that creatures make to each other until they find one that provokes an instant attack. Undead and demons are brought into special laboratories where calibrated chains measure which insults produce the strongest attempts to break out. Then the results are written down and young fighters chant phrases in unison until they get them right.
Slimes are the worst. Sure, it sounds like a burp to you, but we've spent weeks at a time practicing to get that enunciation just right. And no priest ever puts Pain Suppression on your vocal cords.
It's not just a phrasebook, though. Draconic is easy to pronounce and we've got dozens of different lines to throw at them. The hard part is using the right one. Dragonkin and whelps are part of a rigidly ranked society with true dragons at the top. You have to match the taunt to their social status to truly hit home. Tanks spend long hours watching their instructors pop up portraits of dragonkin until they can peg their rank from any angle. This gets easier as you go up the hierarchy. With Sartharion you only have to quote his adds back at him.
Anybody with a match can set things on fire. Making a demon forget about that tasty warlock he's about to bite into--that takes brains.

Hello dear Wow_Ladies,
I had actually been sitting on this question for a while, and mayhaps you can answer this puzzled girl's inquiry. Whenever I use the random dungeon finder, either for heroics or for lowbie instances, I always find I get the SAME ONES OVER AND OVER AGAIN. As a lowbie, I got Scarlet Monestary: Graveyard --I kid you not-- ten times in a row over a span of two days. Seven of those were run in a single day. With heroics, I always seem to get slapped in OK, AN, or HoL. Of course, I've been tossed in the occasional HoR, PoS, and today I even did UK for the first time in ...a long time. But for some reason, I always seem to get thrown into the same four or five dungeons. I don't want to QQ too much, since I enjoy heroics a lot, but doing the same four or five all the time gets a tad irksome.
Do any of you ladies have the same problem, or am I just cursed to do Old Kingdom every day? XD

Our first random heroic two days ago was the Oculus. But there was nothing. Nada. No extra loot bags, just the bog standard stuff. We're on an EU server, is this a US servers thing? When did it come in? Are we doing something wrong here? Is it purely an LFG PUG reward?
Edit: We checked the chest and there was nothing in there. We did think it may have been a maintenance thing, as this was Tuesday, and we don't get ours until Wednesday morning.
