What's New this Week in World of Warcraft!
- 2 good runs as a Protection Warrior - 1 was the all Haste run, between getting the 9% more Haste 3 times, I also got a proc'cing Haste power and have a trinket that drops a Haste pool. I kept my character sheet open to watch, and managed to proc 100% Haste on a couple trash packs, just obiliterating them.
- 2nd run was a combination of reversing the pools in Mor'tegast so they Heal instead of Damage combined with stacking the Whirlwind/Thunderclap have a chance to pull in the 3 closest enemies as well as getting both to do much more damage AND heal for 80% of the damage they did. I couldn't die and the mobs couldn't get away. It was amazing.
- My craziest combo so far has been on my priest. Combining a Door of Shadows power (Mask of Withering) with a Fade power (Volatile Phantasm) to create a dive-bombing priest build. I fly into a pack with Door of Shadows, debuffing them to take more damage. I then drop an image of myself with fade that detonates for massive damage. It may not be the craziest combo out there, but I really enjoy it because it's so different to the way the class would ever play outside of Torghast.
- While it's certainly not the craziest build ever - I was not even a little bit sad to get the reversing the pools in Mor'tegast on my Disc priest in the very first power pick. It made me feel very tanky.

| 1:08.6 | brought a very nice set of Damascus steak knives. They're very pretty. |
| 1:12.8 | Yeah. Lovely. I mean, that's a little bit dangerous for a great father winter to be carrying around in his |

| 1:32.0 | it's it feels way longer than that for me. It's sort of like it's one of those weird liminal things where at the in a way like we've sort of been into the routine now and it feels like shadowlands is like it's our it's our |
| 1:44.9 | wow home right it's just kind of where we've been for long enough that it feels very |
