I'm a nooby booby!

One of the things I have noticed while playing the game is the attitudes of the regular players.

You have to be in THE BEST gear, have the BEST spell rotation, have THE BEST pet/minion, and OMGWTFBBQ THE BEST spec. I have always thought this was a big pile of stinky horse poo. Seriously. But it has merit. You want to be the best because you want to have fun.

I learned this lesson very recently.

I spent an entire weekend getting better gear for my warlock after noticing she would place at the bottom of every DPS chart during instances. And PvP? LOL! Yeah. NOT. COOL. So I farmed Sacrlet Monastery, and power leveled my tailoring a good bit. Suddenly, she was topping mages and paladins and breaking aggro left and right. I started to have so much fun.

Now, breaking aggro annoys tanks and pisses off healers. It's not fun to have three elites wave away the tank and come rushing up to smash your brains in. So I, once again, farmed some more gear and lowered my bonus spell damage a bit. You see, I was only using my DOTs and Drain Life along with my Imp's fire bolt. WHAT was I doing WRONG?

I still don't know. >.>

I still break aggro. Though now I think it's a lot to do with grouping with a warrior tank versus a paladin tank. So I blame them. I'm just an innocent warlock... *whistles*



Moral:
Even if you don't have the best everything your choice in tanks makes a difference!
