Skill Mastery: Shockwave
Posted on Dec. 4, 2008 at 1:54 AM
Shockwave has its limitations, of course. The fact that it is a frontal cone and not a true AoE spell means that the warrior using it WoW Gold for threat while tanking must take care to position himself properly to hit everyone he wants, which of course takes time and means you may be trying to angle away from CC and such. It's not a huge impediment, but it is something to consider. More problematic for pure threat is that the stun component will inhibit rage generation and this is a downside for a rage-based tank like a warrior.
And of course a 4 second cone stun has implications for protection spec in PvP. But I'll talk more about then when I discuss Warbringer.
These aren't huge liabilities in my opinion but they're there and need to be considered. With those aside, though, it's a nice spike of damage to multiple mobs every 20 seconds, and for that reason alone it's worth adding to any tanking rotation.
One of the new talents for Wrath of the Lich King, Shockwave is the 51 point protection talent. Described as having been intended to help with both tanking and soloing, it is a cone attack directed in front of the warrior for ten yards, dealing damage based on attack power and stunning for four seconds. As you can see from the screenshot, it can do reasonable damage if it critically hits (that cloud heading off into the distance is the animation of the spell). In my opinion it does exactly what it is intended to do, helps protection spec warriors with both soloing and tanking.
For soloing, however, it's very, very nice. You can have a group of five or six mobs hitting you and between this ability, Damage Shield and Enraged Regeneration (expect to see them get their own Skill Mastery spotlights soon) you can very easily whittle them down while minimizing your own incoming damage. Shockwave is one of those WoW Gold talents that could probably use some tweaking upwards in WoW Gold damage or a reduction in the cooldown (15 WoW Gold seconds would be plenty between Shockwaves in my opinion) but it's a solid, workhorse ability that helps break up a warrior's rotations and is useable in and out of instances.

WoW Instant Messenger

Diesem Problem schafft WIM sofortige Abhilfe. Nach gewohnt einfacher Installation werden erhaltene und gesendete Fl?sternachrichten ab sofort in sch?nen Chatfenstern dargestellt. Benutzer von ICQ, MSN oder anderen Instant Messengern werden sich sicher heimisch f?hlen und schnell den nutzen dieses kleinen Tools erkennen. Neben der Darstellung bringt WIM gleich viele weitere Einstellungsm?glichkeiten mit sich. Es ignoriert von Haus aus einige Raidstandardnachrichten wie “Du bist die Bombe” und zeigt diese nur im normalen Chatfenster an. Farben, Gr??en und Charakterinformationen des Gegen?bers lassen sich einfach ein- oder ausschalten und ver?ndern. Neben diesen Dingen ist WIM aber noch zu mehr zu gebrauchen. Vorallem in den letzten Wochen scheinen sich Goldspamfl?sterer wie die Heuschrecken zu vermehren. Mit genauerem hinsehen erkennt man, dass diese oft Standardtextteile verwenden. Wer diese k?nftig nicht mehr empfangen m?chte, kann WIM so einstellen, dass das Addon Nachrichten welche diese Textbl?cke enthalten einfach blockt. Ihr bleibt verschont vom Goldspam und dies ohne viel Aufwand. Der letzte Vorteil den ich hier anf?hren m?chte liegt im umfangreichen History-Teil von WIM. Alle Fl?sternachrichten werden protokolliert und sind noch Tage sp?ter abrufbar. Beim AFK-sein ausgeloggt worden? Auch kein Problem! Denn schlie?lich kann auch hier die History mit einem kurzen Blick WoW Gold wieder zum letzten Gespr?chsstand zur?ckf?hren.
Weitere Informationen, die Originiale der hier gezeigten Bilder und Downloadm?glichkeiten findet ihr im Wiki des WIM-Projektes.
WIM - Ein Tool das die Spielkommunikation erheblich erleichtert!
Durch einen kleinen Beitrag in unserem Gildenforum bin ich vor einiger Zeit auf WIM aufmerksam geworden. Die meisten Spieler kennen das Problem von zuvielen Fl?sternachrichten auf einmal. Sei es nun in Raids bei DKP-Geboten, Verkaufs- oder Ankaufsangeboten dem WoW Gold gem?tlichen Mitgliederchat oder Gruppensuche: In vielen F?llen fl?stert man mit mehr als einer Person WoW Gold und wieviele hunderte Male WoW Gold haben wir schon “sry fc” geschrieben, denn das herumtabben zwischen Fl?sterpartnern ist oft nicht sehr effizient.

Counter-Terrorists Study WoW
Posted on Oct. 9, 2008 at 12:51 AM
"The main strength is that [Warcraft] involves 'real' people making real decisions in a world with some kind of [controllable] bounds," said Blair, who said studying players' actions could prove useful to military intelligence analysts. "To put it academically, you have both dependent and independent variables."
Charles Blair, deputy director of the Center for Terrorism and Intelligence Studies, said he thinks the game could provide a powerful new way to study how terrorist cells form and operate. His organization already uses computer models to study terrorists' tactical decision-making, but WoW Gold World of Warcraft's army of players adds a WoW Gold realistic dimension that might prove more WoW Gold enlightening than even the best baked-in artificial intelligence.
Wired.com is reporting that counter-terrorism experts have been watching WoW Gold World of Warcraft for clues about terror tactics. The human element in the planning and carrying out terrorist plots give scientists a better idea than computer simulated exercises:

Gentlemen and Players - 6
Posted on Apr. 22, 2008 at 1:36 AM
It was on Monday, the tenth of August, that we were due wow gold -- wow gold -- wow gold -- wow gold at Milchester Abbey, Dorset; and the beginning of the month found us cruising about that very county, with fly-rods actually in our hands. The idea was that we should acquire at once a local reputation as decent fishermen, and some knowledge of the countryside, with a view to further and more deliberate operations in the event of an unprofitable week. There was another idea which Raffles kept to himself until he had got me down there. Then one day he produced a cricket-ball in a meadow we were crossing, and threw me catches for an hour together. More hours he spent in bowling to me on the nearest green; and, if I was never a cricketer, at least I came nearer to being one, by the end of that week, than ever before or since.
Incident began early on the Monday. We had sallied forth from a desolate little junction within quite a few miles of Milchester, had been caught in a shower, had run for shelter to a wayside inn. A florid, overdressed man was drinking in the parlor, and I could have sworn it was at the sight of him that Raffles recoiled on the threshold, and afterwards insisted on returning to the station through the rain. He assured me, however, that the odor of stale ale had almost knocked him down. And I had to make what I could of his speculative, downcast eyes and knitted brows.
Milchester Abbey is a gray, quadrangular pile, deep-set in rich woody country, and twinkling with triple rows of quaint windows, every one of which seemed alight as we drove up just in time to dress for dinner. The carriage had whirled us under I know not how many triumphal arches in process of construction, and past the tents and flag-poles of a juicy-looking cricket-field, on which Raffles undertook to bowl up to his reputation. But the chief signs of festival were within, where we found an enormous house-party assembled, including more persons of pomp, majesty, and dominion than I had ever encountered in one room before. I confess I felt overpowered. Our errand and my own presences combined to rob me of an address upon which I have sometimes plumed myself; and I have a grim recollection of my nervous relief when dinner was at last announced. I little knew what an ordeal it was to prove.

Stanley Drive is coming up
Posted on Mar. 9, 2008 at 7:09 PM
"Stanley Drive is wow gold -- wow gold kaufen coming up."
Angie glanced across at me.
"Sorry?"
"Then drop me after the next road."
"Why?"
"Soon you'll stop asking 'why?'"
"Are you OK? Look these kids need to get to school before nine."
"Just drop me here. I'll be fine."
"What about work?"
"I'll phone in sick."
"Great. Why don't you tell them you've been drinking again."
And she slammed the door. And left me there.
This is as it appears in my statement.
Fate is in control. Isn't that what Rachel meant?
So I couldn't change what was going to happen. Who was in control of fate though - and shouldn't their sanity be challenged?
People shouldn't be discriminated against because of the way they dress but this is way beyond political correctness. He didn't look right, he stuck out like a sex offender outside a school playground - which is exactly where he was. Light blue anorak, holes in the elbows, fraying where the hood joins the collar. His trousers were dark grey and ill-fitting - you could see his socks and the heels of his shabby shoes were shorn away on one side. He didn't stand still either, he was making out he was with someone, a child, making out he was dropping someone off, smiling, then looking away quickly, then back towards the children gathered in a group before him, their parents leaving one by one as they recognise safety in numbers - all the school friends huddled in ones and twos, singing, pushing, laughing.
He looks more vulnerable now as the mothers and fathers disperse. He has time slot to hit and it has to be precise. Not too soon to attract a shout of surprise, a startled scream that would bring a grown-up running. Yet not too late when teachers appear and children are called to their lessons and another day is wasted. You only get one chance. He moves in and I follow. He has spotted his prey and I watch his persona evolve from that of a stranger to one of a friendly uncle, a new supply teacher perhaps, lost on his first day. The facial transition is frighteningly real, he does actually appear extremely friendly, trustworthy.
There is a young boy in a green coat, zipped up to his chin, his hair parted neatly to the left. He kicks a ball absentmindedly against a wall, just slightly apart from the others. It's enough though and anorak makes his move, tapping the boy slightly on he shoulder (no real physical contact yet) then kicking the ball against the wall in an exaggerated way, catching the return, flicking it into the air and trapping it under his foot. Then he kicks the ball quite hard, intending for the boy to head it back to him but it strikes him on the ear, painfully and he turns to the man in surprise at what this stranger is capable of. The boys face is white and his eyes are gripped tightly shut.
