The Ugly Guys at level 75 - lolsmite

[Multibocks]

Very interested to see how these guys turn out at 80 and beyond. I wonder if they can kill people before you run oom.

Luckily, I think Cata is going to really help with the mana problem

-I'll now get consistent free smites which will mean just an alternating holy nova, smite sequence
-Getting 15% mana back every 12 seconds (I think that's the cooldown on evangelism) will help. Granted I may not be able to get 5 smites off in time, but it should be close (0.5 for holy nova, 1.5 for smite, cycle five times is 10 seconds)
-I'm most worried about their lack of burst. However, supposedly Cata is changing that and sustained DPS may be better. With the amount of DoTs and high survivability, these guys may be ok

I don't think this team will be viable at 80 in WotLK. I guess I'll see how well they do with gear, but I likely won't close the gear gap before the expansion (and probably won't try hard to do so either, with all that farming being tossed away come Cata).

I may throw a shaman in as the fifth. It would be nice to have a tremor totem, a bit more burst, and thunderstorm for when getting swarmed (though usually I like that).

Fear is my biggest weakness. Hunters are my next biggest. For the life of me I can't figure out how to get a hunter down with ease. They deal so much freaking damage and have a ton of survivability mechanisms. If anyone has some hunter killing suggestions, then please let me know

Hey so how are you boxing the beta? I thought that addons were disabled?

[ghonosyph]

not boxing in beta, solo testing, and you can still do a lot with out addons imo

[ghonosyph]

such as:

Macros for those who can't live without addons:
Remove dragon-ends from the bars
/run MainMenuBarLeftEndCap:Hide()

/run MainMenuBarRightEndCap:Hide()

Sell grey items (actually just right-clicks all the grey items in your bag)
/run local l; for b=0,4 do for s=0,GetContainerNumSlots(b) do l = GetContainerItemLink(b, s) if l and select(3, GetItemInfo(l)) == 0 then ChatFrame1:AddMessage("Auto-selling " .. l);ShowMerchantSellCursor(1)UseContainerItem(b, s) end end end

Add coords to the minimap, part 1
/run local f=MinimapZoneText;if not TTF then TTF=CreateFrame("Frame")end;TTF:SetScript("OnUpdat e",function(s) local x,y=GetPlayerMapPosition("player")f:SetFormattedTe xt("%s... (%2.1f,%2.1f)", GetMinimapZoneText():sub(1,9), x*100,y*100) end);

Add coords to the minimap, part 2 (have to run both)
/run MinimapZoneText:SetFontObject(GameTooltipTextSmall )

Show talent trees for classes under level 10 (useful for looking up classes you don't play normally)
/run LoadAddOn("Blizzard_TalentUI") PlayerTalentFrame:Show()

Player/Target Frame move
/run ComboFrame:SetParent("TargetFrame") PlayerFrame:SetScale(1.5) PlayerFrame:ClearAllPoints() PlayerFrame:SetPoint("TOPLEFT",270,-400) TargetFrame:SetScale(1.5) TargetFrame:ClearAllPoints() TargetFrame:SetPoint("LEFT","PlayerFrame","RIGHT")
This one moves your player frame to the middle of the screen below your player model and puts the target frame just to the right of it. It also scales both frames to 150% (SetScale(1.5)) so you can change that number to be different if you don't want them as large or want them larger. To move the position around change the 270 and -400 numbers until they are where you want them.

Add mouse position coords to the world map, step 1
/run local w=WorldMapPositioningGuide;if not CMO then CMO = w:CreateFontString("OVERLAY", nil, "GameFontHighlightSmall"); CMO:SetPoint("BOTTOM", f, "BOTTOM", 0, 11); CMO:SetText("Cursor: "); CMU = CreateFrame("Frame") end

Add mouse position coords to the world map, step 2
/run function GetCursorCoords() local f,x,y,l,t,w,h,s=WorldMapDetailFrame;x,y=GetCursorP osition();l,t=f:GetLeft(),f:GetTop();w,h=f:GetWidt h(),f:GetHeight();s=f:GetEffectiveScale();x=(x/s-l)/w;y= (t-y/s)/h; return x,y end

Add mouse position coords to the world map, step 3
/run CMU:SetScript("OnUpdate", function (self, elapsed) local x,y = GetCursorCoords(); CMO:SetFormattedText("Cursor: %2.2f, %2.2f", x*100, y*100) end)

Ghono, since you're in beta, can you please clarify something for me?! I'm not sure if chakra is in the beta build yet, but it's annoying me to no end that mmo-champion, and other sites, have the chakra talent calculator showing what looks like a mistake.

Chakra says you can enter into a chakra state with heal, prayer of healing, or renew. It then lists the benefits for those three. However, it also lists the benefits for smite. Did they just forget to add smite to the list of spells that will put you in chakra or is it a passive buff? (please be passive buff, please be passive buff.... wishing probably won't help)

[Multibocks]

not boxing in beta, solo testing, and you can still do a lot with out addons imo

So since you have a battlenet id does that mean you can box?

[ghonosyph]

I don't know tbh lol tho I tried to get is boxer to open up many windows in effort to try, it didn't work yet and I've not ereally tried more than that sooo... will try later lol

Owl I haven't been able to tho I will check for you tonight,

Each battle net account can only get one beta key/license, and you can only log in once on such a key/license.
