Making Health Bars Go Up
As I rejoin the game, it should be a surprise to nobody, except me, that my guild needs healers. But nonetheless I am surprised. I’m busting my ass to gear and whatnot
Continue reading »The Update With No Pictures
NO PICTURES! This is because screenshots don’t work in cut scenes, and using fraps kills my discord overlays. I kinda need my discord overlays to see who is talking. All you dudes sound the same. Anyway, after flailing around for … Continue reading »
Fashion Police: PUG Edition
Lately, I’ve been vindicated in my theory that you know you’re in deep shit when your pug person shows up in a bikini or something similar. First, we have Mellons For Hire: “Lol,” she says dismissively, “you’re using a pylon … Continue reading »
Poison All The Things
First of all, leveling as an operative… well I thought it would suck since I’ve done that before, but Lethality is seriously fun. Would you like a bomb? Oh yes, here’s a nice green poison bomb. What’s that? Not enough … Continue reading »
Flailing and Failing: Returning to the Game
The real life job that has been bullshit on my gaming schedule has receded to normal hours. I’m patched up and ready to go. I have no fucking idea what I’m doing. I read the Dulfy guides, although it’s like drinking … Continue reading »
New Raid – I Mean Ops. Totally Ops.
Apparently we’re getting a new op. I’m happy. No, seriously. I mean, it’s not enough by any stretch, but compared to nothing, one op is better than zero. In the real-life background, work is kicking my ass, so I haven’t … Continue reading »
Unfinished Business Still Unfinished
So, yeah, this is my “I’ve been awol here, oops” post. Mostly because lazy player is lazy (and as a consequence, lazy blogger is lacking in source material.) I haven’t done Chapter 13 or after. I figure it will be … Continue reading »
Now What?
Currently, I raid with one of my guild’s groups. I’m incredibly fortunate that the raid times plug into my schedule so well or I wouldn’t be able to go at all. Because, hey, kids are so needy. In addition to … Continue reading »
KOTFE Day Two: Electric Boogaloo
Last night, I continued my trek in Inventory Management of the Old Republic. Yeah, no stories yet, still getting my shit in order. Ship droid is still AWOL. Andronikos refuses to dual wield, even in DPS spec. Boooo. Idiots are coming … Continue reading »
Patch 2.8 Notes According To Me
Wall of Text notes are up. And here’s what they’re doing to sentinel/marauder watchman/annihilation: Annihilate now deals more damage and costs 4 Rage. Vicious Throw and Annihilate now have a 25/50/75 percent chance and Vicious Slash now have a 15/30/45 … Continue reading »
Quality Of Life Changes Just Keep Happening
The newest patch notes for 2.8 were posted. Some good, some bad, and some we already knew were in the works from the “summer of swtor” announcement. But here’s the big flippin deal: Players who are defeated in an Operation … Continue reading »
Being Selfish And Lazy Because It Is “Just A Game”
There are a lot of things I should be doing. In particular, I should be making the gear on my operative the best possible, min/maxing, and generally being leet. In an ideal world, this would involve: Doing more raiding, likely in pugs, … Continue reading »
Approaching Raiding Burnout
I mean ops. Totally ops. My extreme frustration is shown by the fact that I’m not blogging. A week ago, any post I made would have consisted entirely of swear words and incoherent rambling. It’s nobody’s fault but my own … Continue reading »
This Is Madness [Sparta Joke Here]
In my neverending quest to find a class that I like that is more useful in a raiding situation than being the second marauder (being the first marauder is fine, the second is overkill), I started up a sorcerer. I … Continue reading »
Holiday Raiding
I mean ops. Totally ops. Holidays are upon us, and we’re in that weird Zone between Thanksgiving and Xmas when people are shopping, cooking, and generally have obligations (myself included). As such, raiding has been spotty, and we often find … Continue reading »
Feeling A Bit Useless As Marauder DPS
Last night was one of those nights where few things were going right. The biggest problem was that we had 3 melee DPS (2 marauders and a juggernaut) and things were not working. Usually, the group makeup includes a couple … Continue reading »
Patch 2.4.1
I’m late to the party on these patch notes. Too busy divorcing Corso and punishing Quinn. Anyhoo, here is what caught my attention: Interface Editor improvements for the focus target window: New options for the Focus Target Window (that other … Continue reading »
Patch 2.4 According To Me
Yeah yeah, you’ve all seen the patch notes, but these are the awesome things that I care about. So they are more important. New Operations. This is a big one for me, because I was getting a little tired of … Continue reading »
Learning To Tank (Har Har)
As you may have guessed from my recent posts, I’m leveling an assassin. Our guild needs tanks, so I figured I’d give it a shot. I put on my big girl pants – well, inquisitor, so skirt – and leveled … Continue reading »
