Vanish Fix Reverted

Akrios — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 05:37:08 +0000

Rogue Vanish: For the first half second after this ability is used, neither Vanish nor Stealth can be broken by taking damage or being the victim of a hostile spell or ability. (Change Reverted) First I’m going to say I find it kind of ironic that even a vanish fix ends up breaking vanish: Blizzard performs vanish [...]

Energy Management

Akrios — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 18:37:32 +0000

You can spend a lot of time focusing on stats as a rogue, and as important as gear and weapons are as a contributing factor to our damage, our energy and how we use it matters more. In BC I would say energy management had a lot more to do with our gameplay. Energy ticked [...]

Immitators, Icecrown Previews, Working Vanish Changes I Don’t Want to See

Akrios — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 17:41:57 +0000

This first part is kind of spurred on by this. Now this isn’t the first time I’ve seen something like this and it’s not a big deal to me, but at the same time it’s a bit annoying to see a rogue try to use my name or hector’s editing instead of being themselves. I’m [...]

Finally a Vanish Fix in 3.3, Woundman’s Take on Envenom Spec

Akrios — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 16:51:57 +0000

Well it’s finally happened, it’s ridiculous that it’s taken this long but Blizzard is finally going to fix vanish: “We have a change for Vanish in place for 3.3. You will get to try it out soon ™. As promised, if it proves a significant buff to rogues, we may have to compensate elsewhere. Just because [...]

Couple of links I wanted to share today. Reckful.com This is already pretty well known but for those of you who don’t know about it, reckful.com is probably the best place to watch streaming wow videos right now. For those of you who don’t know Reckful is the rogue that currently plays with complexity’s rmp. The site [...]

Akrios — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 02:53:56 +0000

3.22 came out today, you can find the full patch notes here. If you’re experiencing a ton of server / instance problems you aren’t alone. Hopefully that all gets fixed soon. I haven’t had a chance to try much out yet, but the biggest thing I’ve noticed so far? Feral druids: Predatory Strikes: This talent now also [...]

Back, Video news

Akrios — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 17:28:35 +0000

I apologize for my recent absence but I’ve been extremely busy and haven’t really had a chance to work on the site. I’ve been working a lot this summer and only recently moved back to my home, a student house near McMaster in Hamilton (for those of you who are familiar) where I live during [...]

3.2 and Rogues

Akrios — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 16:26:15 +0000

Well we are far enough into the season and patch to start to get a real feel for PvP balance in general and specifically for our class. The first thing I can say without a doubt is that the class as a whole feels weaker than it did in the past. The resilience change did [...]
