New Column on Who Needs Shields
I’ve started a monthly column over at Who Needs Shields, on the basics for Death Knights. It’s called Suffer Well, and the first installment can be found here.
A LFGOGOGO Button?
Over the recent weeks, the discussions going around on the LFD tool, and of over-geared players kicking or leaving in disgust their less well-geared counterparts has given me much to chew over in my mind. Then, a couple of weeks ago, Brigwyn and Daewyn on the Hunting Lodge Podcast threw out the idea of having a selection a “Badge Run” on the tool. I responded with an e-mail, stating that if such a button existed, there ought to be an auto-shard, with no gear loot being given for that particular run. Brig’s initial comment was “Harsh”, but I do believe that he gave the idea some thought.

Prophecy’s Luau
Tiki torch, fish feast on the ground, and the bones of a dead gnome nearby. Rusty even had his Kungaloosh – doesn’t get any better than that.
No Spirit Beast Please
As a non-BM hunter, my hunter doesn’t have one of the super-large beasts that occasionally show up in raids and 5-man dungeons. Neither do I own a Spirit Beast, apparently the pet of choice for the many hunters who are willing to put in the long hours necessary to wait for one to spawn – and then tame it before an achievement hoe kills it. Don’t get me wrong, they’re nice to look at – but I’m not one to run with the crowd.
More Favorite Blogs
News I discovered only the other day – one of my favorite blogs is back from the dead, and my good friend finally got off his butt and launched his.
Diaries of a Marksman Hunter, Nassira’s great hunter blog, has returned. For hunters of all stripes, but in particular those of us with a MM color, should visit her site on a regular basis. Good to have you back, Nass!
And, those 3 of you reading this, may well be familiar with Torval, my trusty tree friend and healer. Well, he also has a bearish side, and will be blogging on Who Needs Shields. Make sure to bug him for more posts – after all, he has nothing better to do! (JK bud)
