Da picture box o' Lokax #1

Was browsing through a load of old screenshots from WAR and figured I might as well post one up every week or so, sometimes it's nice just seeing what happens to other people and get an amusing chuckle from whatever happened in them.

This first picture I title... "Runnin' is fer Stunties"

Looking for an addon...

Anyone able to help here?

I'm looking for an addon that will let me see how many times I block an attack. Basically I'm wanting to run some extended tests on a mob, check to see how often I block, then reset it and try on another mob. Thought Tortals DPS thingy would do that but doesn't appear to. Anyone got any recommendations?

A look ahead.

Ah, a new week and my lazy 'Sunday' (I don't work Mondays \o/), so time to sit down with a freshly ground coffee (Mmmmm Hazelnut and Amaretto), make up some toast and think what WAR will bring this coming week.

Well with the PTS coming up at some point and no doubt the patch notes as well in the next day or two we'll see the inevitable "OMG IM QUITTING THIS GAME COZ I R NOT UBER ANYMORE!!!111111@@@ELEVENGOBLINS" quickly followed by the "OMG THEY R NOW UBER HOW CAN WE COMPARE TO THEM??!?!?!?!111@TWELVESQUIGS" and then finally the "OMG THEY HAVEN'T TOUCHED OUR CLASS, MYTHIC ARE TRYING TO GET US ALL TO QUIT!!!1111@@@THIRTEENGNOBLARS". What I think people will need to do is to sit back and take a deep breath before forming an opinion about any changes. This is 1.2.1, not 1.3 or 1.4, there will be no major ground breaking changes and as you should know in every MMO, that the power of classes will rise and fall like the tide. You may have been the uber class in 1.2, but it's time to suck it up and realise that in 1.2.1 you're not so good, or possibly you're better now. Who knows until it's truly live.

I'm going to promise myself not to look at the first Borc change I see and get annoyed (no really I won't), but to look at the picture as a whole and do my time on the European test server to check out changes and feedback where I can.

Hopefully the Inevitable City won't be under siege during our LV runs as that pretty much killed it due to the lag last week, we managed to make good headway and in a couple of hours got to second wing, final boss (tree guy) before we called it a night rather than pushing our luck.

I'll get on me thinking stone later on and come up with a proper article to post, until then keep smashing dem stunties!
