I Have Been Playing WoW and I Hate Myself

[Thief Silver]

hahahahaha, you're an orange menace with that helm and HAND O' RAGGGG

I was playing around on Chucker. I don't know if he's logged in yet though on him

[Chux]

I haven't yet. But if you fucked my bars up like you did Narche I'll murder you.

[Thief Silver]

Narche I just had to set up for ease of use.

Locks suck.

Coming close to our 3rd year my guild being #1 the whole time just broke up ;(>. It's probably because I haven't played in almost a year they miss me too much.

NO

Also, get two pieces of T4. It's actually a good bonus for a lock around that level

Care to clarify on this? The hood might get replaced at some point depending on a number of factors but the pants will not likely be replaced until T6.

**Edit**

After re reading what I wrote it sounded like the two piece set together was awesome due to the set bonus and that is a negative. Just that they are two awesome pieces until you get into deeper content.

[dave is ok]

I replaced my pants many times since Spellstrike. I used VH for the 2 piece bonus, then I upgraded to T5 pants, which are incredible for a lock. The next upgrade after that is probably Channeled Elements which are early T6.

The hood is much harder to replace (if you're not an engineer), since the caster helm itemization sucks.

You're a god damned idiot if you're a Lock/Mage and don't tailor. Spellfire/FSW will get you geared close to T5 content.

This. I just hope they don't gimp it for WotLK, even though they kinda have to because they were just too good and too easy to get. As a mage, you can pretty much skip T5 content altogether with some aggressive Kara farming and a little Arena.

Spellstrike pants are better then T4 without question and slightly better then T5, I have never seen a serious raiding Lock in T6 content chose anything other until they get T6 or the Leggings of Channeled Elements. You must take into account the epic gems available to a raider in Hyjal and BT.


As for the hood it is actually easier to replace if you take into account,

Brutal Gladiator's Felweave Cowl (Season 4 Arena) -EZ Mode Epic
Hood of the Corruptor (Lady Vashj - Serpentshrine Cavern) -She should be down already if you are in Hyjal.
Cowl of the Grand Engineer (Void Reaver - Tempest Keep) -Easiest boss in TK.


This is in comparison to the two leg replacements.

Leggings of Channeled Elements (Kaz'rogal - Mount Hyjal) -Not hard to get with a competent raiding guild otherwise you will likely never see it.
Leggings of the Malefic TIER 6 (Illidari Council - Black Temple) -If you cannot down Kaz'rogal you will not down Council.

[dave is ok]

You're an idiot.

You forgot the Hex Lord helm, S4 came out YESTERDAY.

Here's the order for pants for someone thats hit capped and not in desperate need of crit:

[Corrupted Soulcloth Pantaloons]
[Leggings of Channeled Elements]
[Pantaloons of Arcane Annihilation]
[Leggings of the Malefic]
[Leggings of the Seventh Circle]
[Leggings of Devastation]
[Brutal Gladiator's Felweave Trousers]
[Leggings of the Corruptor]
[Spellstrike Pants]
[Trial-Fire Trousers]
[Trousers of the Astromancer]
[Legwraps of Sweltering Flame]
