Addons: Proximo 2

Proximo is an arena unit frame which will display your enemies health and mana bars, allow you to target them, and a number of additional goodies. If you missed my review of Proximo, I suggest you do it now.
It’s recently been updated to include some new features: race icons, buff & debuff tracking (I still [...]


New Class Changes in 2.4

##NOLIGHTBOX##It looks like those fake 2.4 patch notes weren’t completely fake after all.
Here’s the recent class changes from mmo-champion:
Druid

Lifebloom healing coefficient has been reduced.
Many shapeshift form tooltips have been updated to be consistent with each other.
Nurturing Instinct increases your healing spells by up to 50/100% of your Agility, and increases healing done to you [...]


Warlock’s Pet No Longer Scales

##NOLIGHTBOX##It seems warlock and hunter pets are currently not scaling with their master’s stats anymore. The only stats which they get are spell damage, intellect and armor, but no stamina or attack power.
What this means, other than being the biggest warlock nerf ever, is that your Felhunter will have about 3000 health, which will make [...]


Sorry Mate, You Have to PvE

##NOLIGHTBOX##First, they added PvP cloaks which you can buy for 60 Badges of Justice (BoJ). Then there’s items like Hex Shrunken Head, Warglaives of Azzinoth, Berserkers Call and many more which are far better for PvP then some Shankers or Slicers. Tidewalker in SSC drops this ring which is pretty good actually; here’s one from [...]


PvP Tips From a Dwarf? Never

##NOLIGHTBOX##
Mind Vision druids if you know they are about to stealth as you will then be able to still see them when they do.
I didn’t know that.
There’s a bunch of cool tips about fighting certain classes on Dwarf Priest. Although it’s from a priest perspective, it doesn’t make it less useful and you should check [...]


Patch 2.4 - PvP Additions

##NOLIGHTBOX##It doesn’t look like patch 2.4 will change much about class (im)balance, but there are some interesting changes so far. Looks like we’ll be doing the same thing again: farm reputation, Badges of Justice, and honor.
Here’s what awaits those of us on the frontlines.
New PvP cloaks, this time with spell haste:

Battlemaster’s Alacrity is a new [...]


Addons: Afflicted

##NOLIGHTBOX##Afflicted is a PvP timer mod, which shows you enemy silences, interrupts and buffs in a convenient way. Although the name of this mod might suggest it’s for warlocks, rest assured it’s not.
You can open the configuration window (image below) by typing /afflicted ui, and change where and how you want it to be displayed.
Afflicted [...]


Destruction is Dead

##NOLIGHTBOX##Or so they say.

The ez-mode SL/SL spec is, despite all nerfs, still the most popular build for PvP warlocks.
There’s not much room for having fun in arenas - you either play seriously or stick to PvE, so it’s a real gem to find warlocks who manage to achieve high ratings with non-demonology spec.
While affliction still [...]


Useful Druid Macros

##NOLIGHTBOX##Cancel your current form and switch to caster:
/cancelform
You should make a macro for each form, so you can ‘powershift’ easily from one form to another with this:
#showtooltip
/cancelform
/cast Cat Form
It will switch from any form to caster without exposing yourself in caster form. Simply change Cat Form to whatever form you wish.
Cast Innervate on yourself:
/cast [target=player] [...]
