Encrypted Text: Macro guide for rogues
Every Wednesday, Chase Christian of Encrypted Text invites you to enter the world of shadows, as we explore the secrets and mechanics of the rogue class. This week, we talk about a few of the most common rogue macros in use today.Over the past couple of weeks, I've had the opportunity to play my rogue quite a bit more than I am typically able to. Brewfest and Onyxia have had me busy every night, helping my guild mates slay Coren Direbrew over and over again. I was able to pick up a Direbrew's Shanker 2.0, although it won't see much use, it's still nice to see one in my bank beside the previous versions.I captured this bit of a World of Logs parse from one of the Onyxia attempts, where I was able to my AoE combination macro: it's a very deadly combination. Looking at numbers like these make me wonder if perhaps the great FoK nerf of 3.2.2 wasn't as heavy-handed as it was made up to be. With a Vanish fix on the horizon for patch 3.3 (who's PTR is coming "soon") and the red-hot topic of 'weapon swapping', I decided to do a bit of housecleaning and tidy up my macros and addons in anticipation.
The Daily Quest: Of totem primers, PvP Paladins and chat room goodness
We here at WoW Insider are on a Daily Quest to bring you interesting, informative and entertaining WoW-related links from around the blogosphere. The new Coffee with Sargeras blog has posted recently discovered chat logs between [theLichKing],[Kel'thuz4d],[Killzone'jaeden].[An00b'arak] and of course, [Sargeras.] With special appearance by [Sylvanas.] Parody at its best. In honor of this hilarious send up of Wrath's major figures, I'm reposting a great CoSPlay video from a few years back above. The Sacred Duty blog has a three part series posted on Prot Paladin PvP in 3.1 Part 1 - Talent Builds Part 2 - Glyphs Part 3 - Gear Alghieri at Yet Another Warlock Nerf runs six of the most popular Warlock builds through a raiding simulation spreadsheet and comes out with six different raiding Warlock gear wishlists. Shamantics gives an overview of Shaman totems from levels 1-80. A few of them include suggested macros. The Zero Initiate blog posts some fairly involved Rogue macros for you to consider as well. The Daily Quest is taking the weekend off, but will be back on Monday with more WoW links for your reading pleasure. Submit a guide, post, podcast or resource for inclusion in TDQ and we'll consider it for a future TDQ post. Click here to submit a link to TDQ
