On Serendipity

www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7Du9fy0TuA   Word History: We are indebted to the English author Horace Walpole for the word serendipity, which he coined in one of the 3,000 or more letters on which his literary reputation primarily rests. In a letter of

Out of Whack

As with all of us trees at the moment, I am a very powerful raid healer.  There’s no question that the spells I have been given combine with the raid encounters Blizzard has created for current conent to make Druid healers exceptionally strong.

Arthas: All Man

Last night as we were kicking Sindragosa’s ass, the 88% of my raid that is male started discussing in vent why it was obvious Sindragosa is “a woman.”  Ahem.  Reasons that they gave amidst their guffawing and chortling were along

For Foreluney

My new friend Foreluney wants me to write about him.  This is sort of challenging since I’ve known him for all of 3 days.  But I like the guy, and I like challenges, so… what to say about Foreluney?   There’s something about

ROFLStomping the Raid and the New TOL

I watched the Blizzard Developer chat unfold on Twitter last night and thought there was some pretty good news for us trees coming up in Cataclysm.  Tranquility, for example, will be raid wide, last as long, but gain additional tics from haste.  Hoorah!

Lessons from Tanking

Although I love Sylly dearly and raid healing on her is easily my favorite thing to do in WOW, I absolutely have my limits with her.  She’s a skinner and leatherworker, so she’s generally no good for farming gold (the endless slaughter

Arise! … Arise, I said! … wtf???

Did anyone else see this post from Ghostcrawler in response to a post saying that, now that Heroism/Bloodlust was going to be given to more than one class, Blizzard should now remove the remaining buffs exclusive to one class?  Hold tight, this is a

Forming: An Opinion on Tree Form in Cataclysm

 Hey, hey, everyone!  It’s been ages and ages since I’ve posted here.  I enjoyed the break for the most part, and was considering letting my account with the hosting company lapse and letting Rolling Hots roll right off into the sunset.

Stand By…

The future of the blog here is, admittedly, quite uncertain at the moment.  I’m deep in the interview process of two different jobs.  Either of them would be great for my family, but would probably mean death to the blog, as either of them would

Lil’ K.T. is a mean bastard!

My server has been down for hours, so I thought I’d roll a little toon on another server to show you all the new Lil’ K.T. vanity pet that was made available by Blizzard today.  He’s a mean little thing!!!  He’ll randomly kill

In a Hurry for Haste

Since the news came out about the changes to Gift of the Earthmother in patch 3.3, which will put a much higher premium on haste for us and blow our current haste soft cap right out of the water, I’ve been on the hop trying to pick up haste where

Ya fights to the finish cause you eats me spinach

There’s a really interesting conversation going on over on the official healing forum right now about how to make healing more interesting.  The gist of Ghostcrawler’s position is that healing becomes boring when the content becomes outgeared

Race changes have gone live!  Druids!!!  Do you have any idea what this means?  This means…

Absolutely nothing to us.  Sorry bout that.

“I’m Stalking You”

This morning I was picking up the fishing and cooking dailies in Dalaran when I saw someone looking for a healer for HVH.  Although I generally only run the daily heroic unless a guildie or friend needs help with something else, HVH I’ll sometimes

The October 21st Post Wherein Sylly Looks Like an Idiot

Sometimes it doesn’t matter how much you know, how much experience you have, how skilled or talented or team oriented or fan-freakin-tastic.  There are times when you just do something so goofy that no one can save you from yourself.  /sigh. 

Fished Out of the Junk Drawer

I’ve got a bunch of things floating around in my head that aren’t meaty enough to qualify for a full post, but I wanted to throw out there, just the same.  So, welcome to the jumbled up hodge podge of the junk drawer.  Tidy up around here

Crossing Boundaries

I have this little hunter alt.   Although it’s hard to admit this here,  it’s true, I’m not a druid through and through.  Sometimes I get my huntard on.  I’ve actually twinked her out with heirlooms, which is something I’ve

Up in the Air. Resto changes in 3.3

I haven’t posted yet about the new PTR build that went up yesterday and so radically changes our Gift of the Earth Mother talent so that it will give us 2,4,6,8,10% improved haste rather than the current version, which reduces the base global cooldown
