Vanifae
Well after 4-5 days of constant camping I got the Time Lost Proto-Drake, it was an awesome moment. Probably one of the more intense moments I have had in Wrath of the Lich King. I wanted to thank Ponderance’s online guide it helped immensely and NPCscan for helping me track down this illusive beast. Now I am flying in style. Of course screenshot or it didn’t happen.
Final Fantasy XIV takes me back, I played Final Fantasy XI back when it first came out it was my first real MMO game of any kind. I have some great memories of the game but I also have moved on as well and can recognize some of the more troublesome elements that I hoped Final Fantasy XIV would address. I am going to go down and cover my first impressions.

Halion is an interesting encounter in Ruby Sanctum, even on normal it’s fun for a tank. You start off with a single tank but in the third phase you switch to two tanks one for the Incorporeal realm and one for the Physical realm and the raid has to balance their damage or they will force a wipe. I like it overall and can’t wait to see the heroic version.
With the first of the Cataclysm class change previews going up today, I can’t help but wallow in anticipation for the 16th when Blizzard finally posts the new information for Paladins. Our class is so awesome we need that much more time to perfect our ground shaking changes. With the recent announcement of the Death Knight tanking tree being Blood in the expansion and some preliminary changes about Rage Normalization I am excited to see what they have cooked up for the paladins.
I don’t have too many inferences yet on where they will take us but there is some writing on the wall:
- I expect them to make changes to Hammer of the Righteous or Seal of Command and even possibly both. I think the fact that our threat rotation is exactly the same in single target and AoE is just boring. I look forward to this.
- The Dispel mechanics will definitely change some of how I play at least when it comes to dispelling my own magic effects like on Steelbreaker.
- I think paladins in general will get a low level instant attack ability to add to the low level experience and make it more interactive. At least more interactive than auto-attack and judgement.
- More of a wish and inferred guess based on similar vanity shaman changes; but I suspect that the varying paladin races may get race specific mounts in Cataclysm.
The 16th will be a good day, I look forward to the new class changes being posted today! And now some Thom Yorke to soothe your weary soul.
I have made up my mind when Cataclysm comes out I will be race changing Vanifae into a tauren because I think a tauren paladin would be pretty awesome. Also my shields and weapons won’t look all tiny and wimpy. I am really excited about this and can’t wait to do it, should make for a fun new fresh experience come Cataclysm. I will still hang out in Silvermoon though; just on principle because that is my favorite city.
