Man, I’ve been off my game this week. Fixeded.

By Alicia on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 12:47 pm

I love it. Yes, Goggins is the best healer EVER! haha. “As long as the not so smart, the not so good” hand waving, that made my day. And yes, Alex, you talk a lot with your hands. Which I’ve been accused often of so I feel you.

Love this episode. It was entertaining and lots of talking made it more interesting. Its great to see that you guys had a blast filming this one.

By ZeeZed on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 12:55 pm

Best freaking episode EVER ^^ I laughed so hard when the mimicking began ^^

By Alicia on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 1:06 pm

By Reyson on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 1:49 pm

By Wyrm on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 3:15 pm

By Saemundr on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 4:03 pm

Goggins ripping Dorkins, Lyle mocking Alex… good job guys, keep up the friendly abuse lol.

Wouldv been good to put more of a mention about the control panels, and shown them (in both 7.1 & 7.2).
The number of times my group forgot to activate them in the early days…. doh!

By Kelieto on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 4:57 pm

I am a lvl 70 tauren shammy and i am resto at the moment i have OP heals like you but i did want to get a question to Goggins. You were explaining your awesome heals to lyle and you said he had “regeneration”. I Dont remember Us shamans getting a H.o.T spell. Can you explain pls?

By Ecco on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 4:59 pm

By Redaurora on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 6:26 pm

I just had a question about healing. Since Goggins is the healer in the group and he does not have a Blog page I quess I’ll post it here. What class is better at healing? Pally, Druid, Sham, Priest? And what is the difference between the heal ablities of those classes? Ok maybe I am asking alot but still would like to know.
Thanks

By ubopgrader on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 8:03 pm

Saying this is prob my favorite episode so far.

By Jesus on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 9:56 pm

You are so cool, this project rulez cant wait to see you in hyjal and black temple it would rock. If you need more people for the raid tell me, I’ll transfer my mage lvl 70 xD

By Bret on Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 at 9:59 pm

LMAO. I was dying.

By Negall on Wednesday, August 27th, 2008 at 4:14 am

Ya it may be healing stream totem but i think its Dranei Racial : Gift of the Naaru 3 min free heal and its holy not nature http://www.wowwiki.com/Gift_of_the_Naaru

By Juuch on Wednesday, August 27th, 2008 at 4:29 am

Dude where was the fire elemental for the Mekgineer gnomes? He does a nice job for helping AOE.

By Dodosu on Wednesday, August 27th, 2008 at 6:52 am

Alex may I ask something? At 0.28 why you said Slave Pens except of Steam Vaults

By Grido on Wednesday, August 27th, 2008 at 8:55 am

As a tank I like to have a throwing weapon to pull (no ammo needed) and I also use the Goblin Rocket Launcher (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=23836) for long pulls (45 yards) but it is not instant and it stuns the target for a 3 seconds doing over a 1k damage, Also has 45 stam.

I would also suggest that hunters also have a throwing weapon in their bag for those times when you run out of bullets/arrows. I have had to lend my throwing weapon to a hunter in an instance!!!

Great episode.

By Mike on Wednesday, August 27th, 2008 at 9:54 am

Great boss kill, you guys are my fav web-show, and a perfect grp too!!

By Clawtrocity on Wednesday, August 27th, 2008 at 10:47 am

I would think regeneration would be from Spyglass of hidden fleet.

http://www.wowhead.com/?item=30620

Which procs

http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=38325

I just think Goggins mistakenly said he procced it when he saw it on Lyle.

By Kwatee on Wednesday, August 27th, 2008 at 11:18 am

Lol, I love how Goggins was so excited about Earth Shield and Regeneration were keeping the tank up on their own. A little taste of being a druid

By Grant on Wednesday, August 27th, 2008 at 12:03 pm

Lol I love it when Josh impersonates Alex when he was talking that made me lol.
Those Rocket boots you guys were talking bout increse your speed by 50% if I remeber correctly and sometimes kills you so becareful

“You know how enginnering is it’s not science” -Juggy lol

By Alicia on Wednesday, August 27th, 2008 at 1:39 pm

@Redaurora, the classes of healing really depend on what you want the healer to do. Most agree that for just straight up healing a priest or a shammy is the best, but if you want them to be able to do damage as well a pally or a druid is pretty cool. Druid healers lose mana quickly, however if they have tapped into the talent trees of feral and balanced then you can do dps or even go into shapeshifting. And a pally is usually a tank, a prot pally is highly desired everywhere and have no problem with guilds, but a healing pally runs into more trouble such as running out of mana *like the druid* and their spells not being as strong typically.

Again it depends on your game play. ^^ I prefer druid myself, as I have a 60 alt that’s a druid that currently is deviating from his Feral talent tree to the Resto.

By Person on Wednesday, August 27th, 2008 at 6:32 pm

actually, i think that it was the trinket fel reaver’s piston. http://www.wowwiki.com/Fel_Reaver%27s_Piston
because if u look, unless goggins changed it, goggins doesn’t have the spyglass of the hidden fleet. just a note……

By iamthemole on Thursday, August 28th, 2008 at 12:08 am

@Alicia, I agree with what you said except for when you brought up Holy Pallys. My main is a Holy Pally and I rarely run out of mana. The only reason pallys run out is if they burn all of their mana on large heals. Right now i can crit for about 2.3K off a 180 mana heal. I have roughly 10K buffed mana. you do the math on how many times I can heal somebody and this is not even factoring in spirit.

By Starfish on Thursday, August 28th, 2008 at 12:22 am

Is it just me or does the hunter bear more than a passing resemblance to Jeff Goldblum?

By Chilton FOr The Alliance on Thursday, August 28th, 2008 at 8:12 am

What are u gonna do when uve finished all the heroics?

By SaintElmo on Thursday, August 28th, 2008 at 10:12 am

Goggins uses the Fel Reaver Piston ( http://www.wowhead.com/?item=30619 ).

This gives him the ability to cause a heal over time when it procs… which is a lot

By Saemundr on Thursday, August 28th, 2008 at 3:25 pm

Remember, Rocket Boots Xtreme Lite: Requires Engineering (330)

dont make them for everyone, unless they are also engineers! (which u already said they werent!)

By Blake Wantuch on Friday, August 29th, 2008 at 3:06 am

WOW iM JELious! Jerry Trainor plays World of Warcraft and is a awesome actor…

By Abeo on Saturday, August 30th, 2008 at 11:58 am

@Alicia, I would have to disagree, Pallys & druids are very very mana efficient healers. If you put them on maintank healing a druid will stack up 3lifebloom, which with a nice amount of healing will do for most fights, and you can keep 3 stacks up with just casting lifebloom every 6s and get the 5second rule spirit based mana back. Paladins can also keep up a “rotaion” of flash of light, flash of light, holy light, rince and repeat on maintank keeping them up and not having any bigger mana problems. Paladins ain’t too good on healing the group since they only got casted spells on 1 target, so pallys are more main/off tank healers, but druids suit for both group & main/off tank healing becouse of their various hots, and if druids get problems with keeping tank up with only lifebloom, you can add a regrowth to the rotation, which is more efficient then rejuvenation

By Redauroa on Sunday, August 31st, 2008 at 7:35 am

Ok great thanks for the info on healers. It is nice to know that the is no right or wrong in the game. Just depends on how you play it.
Really enjoy the shows!! Keep it up I like knowing the hows and whys of the instances.

By Madsen on Sunday, August 31st, 2008 at 2:59 pm

wow, I always new Goggins was a cocky bastard, but now I know he’s definately in the category of geeky uncool.

Would NOT want to hang out with that dude

Ya you are such an amazing healer, keep asking for more attention and credit you tool, You’re playing a shitty looking subscription based game.

By Johnathon Myles on Sunday, August 31st, 2008 at 3:00 pm

is there a boss that’s not a tank and spank, alex?

You do know every fight is exactly the same and we’re playing it for these little incremental awards, not the gameplay value.

By Alicia on Friday, September 5th, 2008 at 8:39 am

Sorry, since I don’t play a pally i was only going off of what others had told me and what I had researched from when I had first started in the resto talent tree for my alt druid. I just prefer to have a priest as a healer, so I’m sorry if my biase came through a little. ^^ Anyway, for new people at healing though, when they’re first starting out, you do have to agree that sometimes druids run out of mana. Then again, we all do, so its fine.

By me on Saturday, October 11th, 2008 at 7:06 am

Don’t forget that part of holy pally’s mana efficiency comes from spell downranking. Also, there is chain potting (this usually doesn’t come into play for 5 mans). Chain-potting can becomes more important in later progression due to the fact that mp5 doesn’t scale as well as spirit later on.
