WOW 2009 in Review
December 21, 2009I’ve been tagged. I’ve never been tagged for one of these blog memes before :)
What did you do in World of Warcraft that you’ve never done before?
Started a hunter blog!
What was your favorite new place that you visited?
Northrend, natch.
What would you like to have in 2010 that you lacked in 2009?
Hmm. I’m going to go with a legendary 2 hander. It’s hunter loot.
What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Probably building this blog and starting the podcast- nothing I do in game is that interesting anyways.
What was your biggest failure?
What did you get really, really, really excited about?
Jeez, basically every single patch since 3.0.8! Also, being interviewed on the twisted nether blogcast was exciting. Some other “really excited” moments were when we interviewed Munken and Kripparian, two of best hunters in the world.
What do you wish you’d done less of?
Play bloons tower defense.
What was your favorite WoW blog or podcast?
Too many to list- I read ‘em all. If I pick one, I’d be lying.
Tell us a valuable WoW lesson you learned in 2009.
Never face a boss (say, for example, Marrowgar) while trying to right click on a soul portal. Don’t ask.

“Never face a boss (say, for example, Marrowgar) while trying to right click on a soul portal. Don’t ask.”
You did feign death, right? =)
Click, click, boom goes the raid! :D
That’s just how I roll.
Misdirected as soon as I saw what I had done, but the tank was still unbuffed and the healer was OOM. /fail
I had my big 2009 fail just tonight. I was trying to pull a Blood Beast off the melee with a Distracting Shot but guess who I targeted and shot instead?
Oh i did that as well good fun.
Heh, ok, you trump mine.
I wonder if I could write a macro that would only cast distracting shot if the target is a blood beast?
Maybe a simple
/stopmacro [target=pettarget]
would do it providing you leave you pet on the boss.
Well, that didn’t work. I came up with a macro that does work, but it’s inelegant because it focus targets the Blood Beast.
Failure 2009 – Steps to reproduce:
Distract Blood Beast.
Kite to the portal.
Disengage over the edge.
