Ya, same number of ticks, they just come faster. :D

Each RJ will do more HPS, but you won't be able to keep as many up at once. For example, you may only be able to keep it up on 12 people instead on 15, but you'll heal those 12 faster. Nice for concentrating healing on a smaller number of targets, potentially bad if everyone in a 25-man is taking slow steady damage, or you are planning on using RJ to keep people swift-mendable. But blizz trended to more healing on fewer targets in 3.2, so it'll be interesting to see if this continues in ICC.

I don't think I'll be losing one of my other glyphs for it yet, but *shrugs* I'll be wanting to try it out sometime, since RJ is usually most of my healing anyway.

Meh, I'm not overly impressed with the glyph then. And why the hell didn't they clarify it in the tooltip? Why not "your haste rating now affects Rejuvenation duration" - other than the bad rhyme, it's pretty good, yeah?

Might pick it up just because I'm only healing heroics these days. Imagine if you have around 400 haste rating plus that egg which gives you a chance to get, what, another 400 haste rating? 800 haste rating and you apply a 15-second Rejuvenation. But that's not even with the new Gift of the Earthmother in there. Sheesh, it would be like a 9-second Rejuvenation or something like that. Maybe faster. Tick, tick, tick!

It's very nice and all, Arex, but if you're up against something where Rejuvenation spam is enough, chances are you're not having mp5 issues anyway. I couldn't find Spark of Imagination on WoWhead, by the way. New trinket?

Right now I can heal heroics without dropping below 90% mana, unless things go south. Rejuvenation + Wild Growth is enough to take care of anything that isn't lasting. Regrowth + Rejuvenation on the MT and Lifebloom or Wild Growth every time Clearcasting procs. With the Tear trinket from ToC5, I get 500 mana back constantly. Coupled with Clearcasting, Revitalize and 300 mp5, I don't really need anything else.

If I'm healing raids, yes, my mana tends to drop, but only if I'm spamming Nourish on people. If I'm spamming Nourish on people, Rejuvenation isn't enough, regardless of its duration. If I need 6k+ heals every second, a 9-second Rejuvenation that ticks for 2k wouldn't be enough.

So Glyph of Maul and the last fight in ICC + a non-accurate DBM announcing of the add spawn is a bad thing.

I had to delete the glyph. Helped greatly but it was late so we stopped for the night.

Yes, because as you know, there's nothing else in them!

Finished ICC10 off tonight.

Almost had it on 1 try but a DK got stuck on the braziers getting away on a Blood Boil.

Then we just had the shammy healer go DPS and raped him.

Two pally healers equaled easy mode.

The new raid fights are all quite interesting - although Deathbringer Saurfang is a bit of a snoozefest for melee - free target dummy testing except you and the target are fully raid buffed & debuffed!

The gunship battle is a lot of fun and our tanks are getting good at rocket-jump kiting the enemy boss around, although we still evacuate periodically to let the boss lose his buffs. I'm a bit concerned about how long the guild takes to kill the spikes in the 1st encounter. Us melee kill two spikes and then I look around and the 3rd spike still hasn't been dropped by the ranged yet - Hard modes will not be so forgiving!

Also for bade purchase I'm thinking Idol first.

Would be nice for tanking and DPS.

Opinions?

Yes, well as far as I know, the 25 may drop a token as in ToC, not 100% on that yet.

But since we have 28 days till the next wing opens. That gives the Frost from doing ICC10 weekly, more if I swing into a 25 man, plus the 2 per day and 5 per week from the weekly raid quest.

So getting sh*t tons of Frost badges should be fairly easy.

Which almost makes me want to get the Idol first.

I do realize how sexy the 4T10 is for tanking and want it bad but it is not as sexy for DPS.

I don't DPS that much but still the Idol seems like a really sexy multi-purpose badge purchase for today's sexy feral druid.

I rock my DPS gear in the new LFG tool and embarrass DPS. One guild healer noticed a bit but also noticed the huge DPS boost. I think HoR is the only heroic I use tank gear for to be honest.

I'd seriously think about moving to Arex's server if they raided at anything close to a time I could raid.

Just as an example.

You should come to Neptulag, Aeth. We've got nice stuff here. Lag, Bulgarians, lag... more Bulgarians...

Yup, this server has it all. If by all I mean lag and Bulgarians.

I don't! Halp!

So far you get 2 tokens from Deathbringer Saurfang in 25man ICC. To use them though, you need to hand the token AND the badge tier piece in - you buy the low level piece and upgrade it wit the token. So the first 4 Emblem of Frost purchases I make will be 4 pieces of T10. That 4pc bonus is worth something like 700 DPS in my current gear, and i'll need all the pieces eventually anyway.

The only other way will be when they add in the new VOA boss, although i'm not sure which slots will drop in there - and I have the crappiest luck in VOA on all my toons.

*sigh*

Haiku for everyone about my wow time now.

I no longer raid.
Real life takes up too much time.
Casual really sucks.
