Cobra Reflex questionFollow

As far as I'm aware it's only white damage but that's a good question, If I have time tonight I'll test it out.

What other damage would you want it to effect? All the other damaging abilities are on a GCD. As for the DPS boost i believe it is a 30% increase in pets dps.

*edit* Sorry didn't see the last part of your post. No, it will not effect the GCD or the cooldown of pet special abilities. To do that you need to be deep BM and get Longevity. Which will lower the cooldown of all your pets special abilities.

swap out those points and get this talent. just sayin.

I have NOT been challenged by anything as of yet in LK, then again, I haven't left the Tundra. I've done more quests and killed more mobs than I recall doing at any other time and haven't gained a single level yet. Still 15% short.

It seems to me that the biggest obstacle to levelling is just the sheer amount of XP needed to level. That equates, to me anyway, to TaK (Time at Keyboard). LK has made me feel more like a servant to WoW than anything else they've ever done:

"Do this quest"...
"... Yes Master."
"Now do this quest..."
"... Yes Master."
"Now do these 30 other quests..."
"... Yes Master."
"You are still not worthy of a level... do these 30 other quests."
"... Yes Master."

No wonder why people want to just AOE grind out the XP... it's almost as mind numbing. I hope the game story picks up after I leave the Tundra. So far I'm a bit underwhelmed by it.

Just to stay on topic, I love Cobra Reflexes. It's a big boost.

I do miss Rapid Killing, that cooldown bonus on the rapid fire ability was so nice... not to mention, when grinding like this, I do far more target to target killing.

nothing until past lvl 75 drops anything I can use anyway :P

And yeah, doing some regular instancing seems to boost the XP by quite a bit. :)

I would say Cobra is well worth it , more pet damage = more threat = less melee for me.

I am enjoying the Tundra but thats all i have seen as i have been levelling my new range of pets farming the Rhino herds , so far i have got 3 to my level and just 2 more to gowhen i am not levelling my alts .

From the little i have seen and heard about i will enjoy all the new content but i will be taking my time as i like to swap characters a lot.

Most people would consider that fairly slow, to be honest. I know sitting there for eight hours just to gain one level would draaaag for me.

Actually, my complaint was more centerd on the pedestrian, SLOW and Boring nature of the story of the quests.

I thought I was going to see something more like the Aldor/Scryer interaction. Maybe even something getting more into the different 'sides' of the LK conflict.

Instead, we are stuck with interesting 'idea' groups who, once done with their quests, fade out to the next 'idea' group. They all sat around a table and cranked out these ideas rather nicely, I like bits of the lead-in to the groups, but then it just goes flat... I hope it picks up after the Tundra because right now... it's snoozeville. ATM, they have me hunting clams that rarely spawn and are in just a very small area. It really sucks. Of course, the swimming quests usually do.

Writers are always told to have a 'hook', a great lead-in to get your readers going and keep them on the line for the entire book. Some have told me it gets better, I hope so, but they clearly missed the hook and these kinds of quests should be intended for newer players, not 70+ lvl experienced players. We should be seeing more timed quests, ones where you have to use your brain. These find and seek, kill quests are a staple but for 10 levels?

In the end, I just think that so far, Blizz kinda missed the opportunity to really jazz up their storylines, and instead, we are stuck with a ton of quests that seem to have little goal beyond the end of your nose and leading you by said nose to next little quest chain. Compared to TBC, it feels... less.

Borean really is pretty horrible, imo. Go to Howling Fjords. Way more entertaining, and way more interesting to look at.

No no, you don't have to wait till late 70ies.
There is a quest line in howling fjord at ~71 or 72 where you interact with the lich king in a rather funny quest series.
You see him again in utgarde keep at lvl 70-72.

The quest line which resolves into raiding undercity can be done at about 73-74.

And of course there are a lot of quest lines I have not done yet or that I have forgotten (I rushed leveling a bit; I will take my time on my deathknight alt in two or three weeks).
