Just Hit 80 Ran TOC your advice2010-03-25 00:00:00I got the Purified Twilight Opal for all my blue/red sockets, because spell power and spirit is awesome. Spirit gives you more mana per second through Intensity and additional spell power as well. <br />Not sure about your talent build as I'm working on mine as well, but with 200 haste rating, can't you afford to take one point from Balance of Power, especially since you have Improved Faerie Fire? +9 hit chance from talents alone there, plus 200 haste rating which is 7.5 or so, right? Of course, that's on level 80 mobs, so I don't know how that converts to level 83, but ...
Ex-NCsoft Employees on Tabula Rasa's Demise2010-02-24 00:00:00about PotBS any more, since I really know nothing about it.
NB: I don't happen to agree with anything else in that post. I've got nothing against it, I just didn't find anything inte
resting or new about the games themselves in the post, and IMHO the list of "why this happened" is too shallow and derivative to be worth saying in 2009 - the same has been said many times over the last ten years by many people, and ain't particularly insightful in the first place. Sorry, dude.
Martin's personal post-mortem generated waves with another ex-NCsoft employee, Scott "Lum the Mad" Jennings, who had the following to say:

Unadulterated Awesomeness2009-09-21 00:00:00every mob in Nagrand has a chance to drop "Oshu'gun Crystal Powder," which you turn in at Halaa (when you control it) for 3 gold, 6k XP, and a Halaa Research Token... but more on Halaa later. Believe me, there will be LOTS of information on Halaa, because it is t3h awesomez.
There's a Stonehenge-y thing up to the north called the Throne of the Elements, where four gigantic Elemental guards roam around a quartet of Shamans who give you various quests to
restore harmony to the elements, largely by finding things and killing them. Apparently, it's a hub for both factions, and my curiosity at how Blizzard is planning on making it less of a Nesingwary-esque death zone is appeased when I try to fireball a Warrior, and get crushed by Gordawg (Fury of Earth) for about 21k damage.
Ouch. Ok, lesson thoroughly learned.
One of the more amusing quests in the zone is from the Throne of Elements, where a Broken shaman tells me that I'll need something to let me breathe underwater, and a particular berry can do the trick. Unfortunately, the best way to find them is to sift through the dung piles of the Nagrand wildlife.
...ew? Sometimes I think the quest writers at Blizzard have a very twisted sense of humor.
There's also a very cool and very rewarding questline called the Ring of Blood. While turning in some quests at Garadar, I notice a Mag'har Gladiator training for something while a bunch of kids watch. I talk to him and he mentions the "Ring of Blood" in the Laughing Skull ruins to the North, but tells me I don't have the guts or the strength. I'm not nearly stupid enough to enter the Ring, am I?
Oh, I'm twice as stupid as that!
To the Laughing Skull ruins, folks!
