IIRC, anything that's attackable by the boss counts as another target.

Re: ...I can't believe I just did this.....I feel dumb.

I don't remember having much problems with forgetting that I'm not on a flying mount. Maybe because whenever I'm on a flyer, I compulsively press Space to fly just above the ground. If I were on a non-flyer, I'd find out about it much sooner.

Re: Hunter Talent Updates

Remember they were talking about dps, not command&control for pvp, etc. The AoTH change is a clear buff, and Blink Strikes could be. So both are true, the did buff dps, and they are appear to not have any sort of plan except to repsond to PVP QQ by whack-a-bat. What I've seen said just "hu...

Re: Hunter Talent Updates

According to todays blueposts, they're saying 'hunters are getting buffed slightly' in 5.3... honestly, I'm not seeing any buffs except POSSIBLY the blinkstrike buff, and that's only if you take that particular talent. Am I missing something? As far as I can tell, it's nerfbat city. Yeah, I'm slowl...

A non-Warcraft map. It's meant for a fantasy universe where main theater of action is a land resembling medieval Palestine - meaning Crusades.

Re: Zhinru's Doodles and Scribblings

http://www.picfront.org/d/8Yt9 Moved the map to a different host, because Imgur kept compressing the file which resulted in some of the pixelisation you might have seen. Also changed halos on the names, which should improve readability. Finally, updated the legend and added a wind rose. Check out th...

Feedback on the mountains was positive, so I tried applying the same style of brushes overall. Did I overdo it?

Re: Rants/raves/thoughts on 5.3

A thought just occured to me. GC: "Hunters are not meant to be crazy cat ladies. You won't get more stable slots for now." Next big patch: Hunters get more stable slots. Also hunter's CC gets nerfed to the ground, really hurting PvE functionality. GC: "Hey, you know what, Holinka? May...

Re: Zhinru's Doodles and Scribblings

New version of the map, and inquiry for some feedback. http://i.imgur.com/TA8v1sh.jpg As you see, I made some new mountains, and I have two questions regarding them. 1) Do they impact overall readability of the map? I gave the names some halo, but I don't know if it's enough. 2) Do you think they fi...

Re: Am I able to solo anything on Isle of Giants?

For me, the dinomancers were the easiest with a tenacity-specced moth. The first heal I interrupted with Silencing Shot, the second with moth's silence spell. Tenacity meant slightly less Mend Pets needed. That's on a character that hasn't been to LFR yet but is eligible. EDIT: Also, as they usually...

Re: Zhinru's Doodles and Scribblings

I'm actually almost 100% positive that NS was one peninsula on it's own. The land masses fit together about as good as it comes, and the edges are jagged and look very torn asunder to me. That said, it's also your work, and the staits (straights?) do look very nice, I don't see how it would end up ...

All of our CC options are getting nerfed to the ground. As fun as hunter was - exactly due to that - I'm starting to feel like I will have to keep my hunter just for collecting pets. Pet collecting isn't really a challenge anymore either. Battle pets are more work than hunter pets.... I don't care ...
