On a side note - Using Ardent Defender against Garrosh's cleave gives a really nice vengeance boost. (from 100k to 200k :O)
I am possibly very late to the above posts but.... I recently dusted my pally after stopped playing for a year or more and levelled to 90. The first thing I did was brush up on the changes in MoP and read the sticky mentioning using of Seal of Insight.
Is it still the go to Seal? My understanding was at launch if MoP with healers gearing up and mana issues it would be needed but with everyone now geared with freebies (Timeless Isles) should it still be the Seal to be used. I just tank 5-mans and not even LFR.
Yes it is the only viable seal for Prot.
get a 4gb USB flash drive and put your wow folder on there. Have all of your stuff on any computer you move to.
I know some people had that issue, I remember watching some guild stream their Garrosh kill and they just moved around the room in p2 to get more boss damage out. If it works...
yeah i can see that working too, although, with the constant tank swaps, threat between my co tank and me is usually pretty tight. has anyone here used RF dropping during garrosh, or do you guys not have trouble with sha add threat at all?
Wait, are you implying that your entire WoW folder is only 4GB? How the shit? Mine is at least 20, and thats without any addons whatsoever.
Unless you were just talking about moving you addons folder with all you setting saved and shit? But I could see that messing up another persons WoW folder somewhat.
Can't judge w/o it tho.
I always used RF dropping during adds otherwise high veng + EF + HolyPrism = GG
Personally, my entire interface folder is a whooping 250 mb, combined with WTF folder (which is another 200mb) it's a whole half a gig.
Provided that you 100% want to keep other's person UI same as before, before starting client rename his folders _1 and paste in yours, once done switch the names.
(Purty sure you can even merge wtf folders since they're /server/character so shouldn't be a problem)
A buddy of mine just made a few usb keys with diff games (wow, lol+sc2, d3) and would just grab usb with him.
With regards to the sha adds on Garrosh - the DPS in my group are usually pretty good at picking up one each, I usually end up with 2 or 3 on me, if there are 3 then someone taunts one out but I kill both of the other 2 on me, with the level of Vengeance on that fight even getting a buffed add isn't a massive problem. We've even had a couple of times where I've killed 3 adds on me without too much of an issue.
3-4 are still doable after that it gets nasty.
On a side note I did a double kill on those adds with AS on our last kill.
I am in a dilemma. I currently still use Tortos' Shield (530). Now I rolled on Sha of pride, aiming for the chest, and I got the nasty dodge/parry shield, but It would be 561, compared to 530.
what to do?
You lose about 200 haste (less if you upgrade the new shield), but gain nearly 2k armor and nearly 500 stam. I'd say for that reason alone, the switch is worth it, unless you expect a better upgrade in the immediate future...and even if you do, take the new one and don't upgrade it until the end of the raid week
