This story is growing exponentially around the Warcraft world, almost by the hour: Shaman buffing the hell out of their agility and strength with bugged grace of air totems, achieving 100% crit and dodge rates plus the added bonus of downing elite mobs without breaking a sweat and dinging through levels faster than a new GM character.
Now that’s a premium service I’d subscribe to, and I’d be the first in line.
I’ve read a few descriptions on the exact methodology to achieve the bugged stats, but as I’m not a shaman nor do I play one in real life, I can’t test it or confirm that it’s repeatable, etc, but if true, if it can be triggered intentionally … oh my my my. The screenshots are awe inspiring: crit, crit, crit, crit, crit, au revoir, elite mob!
Oh, that one of my game characters would get bugged some day! Most days, I’d settle for a reasonable drop rate on those cursed collection quests, but to be a 100% crit machine would be a thing of beauty.
Read: Boomsha’s forum thread.
“Exploit early, exploit often” thread. That’s a good policy, btw. (I kid! I kid!)
Plus, pretty much any other thread on main page of General boards with “shaman” in the title.
Look: Gnomecrusher kicking ass.
Was the whining ever this bad in DAoC? I can’t remember. Ahh, the good ‘old days. How we’ve missed them.
