The Favored Sin themightyjello The hell is a 'gearscore'? A addon for the game, that people use to judge whether or not you can join their raid. It's pretty much digital e-peen...though it has some uses. You typical wouldn't want people below 4.5k gs in a particularly intense encounter, like Toravon the Ice Watcher. Considering it's pretty much a DPS race... But it doesn't really mean everything these days. You can pretty much score a decent level of gear and still not know how to use it well, or probably even have stats in the wrong area. It'd be like having a high level item that relies on stacking attack power with each attack, but because you have a slow, heavy hitting attack rate, it takes far too long to get it started.

What Panda said.
VoA is old news though. Working on getting Shadow Mourne for my Paladin...
That will be some tough s**t. Especially since I'm not in a high end raiding guild. I believe I can pull it off in a pug though.

The only time I tried that type of game with my friends was a pirate/hack version of Phantasy Star Online.
I like it though cause it was pretty simple, more arcade style and it had a shitload of weapons.
Only played it for a few months until one of my friends decided to keep playing on his own and went like 30 levels above. We were like "man, ******** that s**t", since we thought it was fun to do most s**t together and level up together and s**t. But this guy ******** it up.

Nighthunter And I love rogues on my warrior in PvP. "Dodge more b***h" *Overpower, Mortal Strike, overpower, execute* That and their damage against plate amuses me. ...dodge? What's this 'dodge' you speak of? Why would anyone DO that? My stats went in order: +agi, +attack, +crit chance, +armor penetration. Dodging is for combat and assassination spec'd rogues. Subtlety spec is about stunlock abuse. I dual spec'd my warrior at 40 from pure defensive to bloodthirst/defensive since I was using him to solo instances and already was using a 1.3 speed weapon/shield combo. It's kind of funny having conceptually infinite HP on a class that's not supposed to. Though I regret not doing any PvP with him when he got up to Warbringer. Seriously... being able to charge 3 things sequentially is just a fun thing to do.

Yeah, I really only do VoA 25 on my mage for Sanctified pieces. And I'd love to get Shadowmourne on my warrior because it looks awesome.
Edit: PvP in prot gear is pretty fun. I need to try it since they buffed revenge damage recently and turned the improve talent into making it a cleave. I'm seening plenty of bawing about it.
Agi = dodge. Rogues inherently dodge enough for me to smack them down hard with overpower. And I always lol when a rogue pops evasion against me. I mean seriously, do you want me to beat you down more.

Jello, you have no idea.
BGing and being able to do three charges? Especially in WSG? Imagine that your carrying the flag, and three people are in your way. Charge. Charge, and charge.
Half way across the field already.

The Favored Sin What Panda said. VoA is old news though. Working on getting Shadow Mourne for my Paladin... That will be some tough s**t. Especially since I'm not in a high end raiding guild. I believe I can pull it off in a pug though. I wish I could just pick up a pug and hit ICC10. Too many fail tanks. All the good tanks and healers just won't bother with pugs. I want to get the weapon you get before Shadowmourne, but I'm still short like...24 saronite, and I haven't even touched Festergut and Rotface for their acid. I dunno...if my guild runs an alternate 25-man I might have a chance. Ive reviewed the strategies, though. I mostly just pug VoA and do the weekly quest.

See... When fighting a Warrior as a Rogue?
You either win or lose. Depending on your spec. With my Rogue, it's rather easy. Cheap Shot first of all. Disarm. Stack up five points, and kidney shot his a**. Then pop Killing Spree.
Warrior dead. Me alive.
Win.

I have an idea, and it sounded like a lot of fun. I never took that guy out of defensive stance the entire time I played him, because I was making an ultimate tank and that's all I cared about. Which was kinda why I was shocked at how much damage defensive can do... as long as you're being hit. If nothing's attacking you your DPS turns to s**t. Or at least it did for me, since I was using the fastest weapons I could get my hands on (fist weapon for 30 levels) and relying on revenge and shield bash for damage with heroic strike thrown in every now and again. The weapon was just there to proc lifestealing. Though yeah, Warbringer. Epic talent there, best single point you could ever spend because not only does it let you use all of them from one stance, but you can also charge in combat and you can break root effects with it. But I only ever got to use it to triangle-pull groups of mobs when playing with Adrinai. Charge group 1, Intercept group 2, Intervene back to the paladin and thunder clap.

Don't think I ever used evasion when fighting warriors (due to overpower) and subtlety spec doesn't have any other cooldown moves except vanish. But you don't use that frivolously.
Ambush > Gouge > Backstab > brief pause > Cheap Shot > Backstab > Backstab > brief pause > Gouge > Backstab > Shadowstep > Backstab > Cheap Shot > Stealth > Sap > Ambush > Backstab > etc.
