I'll definitely give it a try when I renew my subscription.Darth Solohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110818057322485070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-90521487912801307042010-09-13T16:05:05.944-05:002010-09-13T16:05:05.944-05:00Just like to say that I have a semi-fresh 80 pries...Just like to say that I have a semi-fresh 80 priest (I LOVE LOVE LOVE Disc healing, haven't been holy since about level 64). I jumped RIGHT into heroics at 80 and didn't have a lick of trouble. Most people running heroics at this point are over-geared chars just running for badges and so the groups are significantly more powerful than the lower level groups. You'll probably be fine, even if it's coasting on the back of an extremely geared tank at first.Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04718077082448774743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-40597837443978757302010-09-04T01:53:13.565-05:002010-09-04T01:53:13.565-05:00I've had moonkin druids in heroics that were d...I've had moonkin druids in heroics that were doing more dps than my pally so I guess that they might be a bit OP despite the extra gear they might have.Darth Solohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110818057322485070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-8123084479676198112010-09-01T11:36:07.064-05:002010-09-01T11:36:07.064-05:00Moon is OP... but it's severely tied to RNG an...Moon is OP... but it's severely tied to RNG and the buff's you get.

Unless you've suddenly geared yourself up with >ilvl 200 gear I don't see how.<br /><br />Oh, wait, maybe druids are overpowered.

Then it would be easy to check.<br /><br />Does it look in your bags as well? What if that gear is for a different spec or even something that you won a roll for but won't use due to bad itemization?<br /><br />I suspect it won't be that easy to cheat the finder.<br /><br />Although... here's something I just remembered. Once when I was dps-ing a heroic on my paladin I noticed that, when everybody zoned in at the beginning, the tank had only 20K health or something like that. When I checked his gear he had really crappy stuff on, including grays if I'm not mistaken. I whispered the healer asking for his opinion but before he could give me an answer, the tank equipped his real stuff and his health (and everything else) jumped to normal. I guess the guy was trying to confuse the system or something.Darth Solohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110818057322485070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-80599710033633936442010-08-31T05:25:16.971-05:002010-08-31T05:25:16.971-05:00I wonder if it's also a perk of being a shadow...I wonder if it's also a perk of being a shadow priest running DPS. Pallys are apparently a dime a dozen (judging by those hanging around Dal), and I suspect the LFD tool tries to avoid putting multiples of the same class in an instance if it can help it. The exception to that is the lower level dungeons, where my Pally has often had to share blessing duties with another Pally tank and/or healer.Redbeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05306063084983025771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-72176805630223003162010-08-31T02:59:41.239-05:002010-08-31T02:59:41.239-05:00I wonder if that's true about getting in faste...I wonder if that's true about getting in faster with crap gear?
