First off I love the naxx vids they are great and as usual an amazing job by the guys... :-)
Got a quick one... I have posted this in the add-on forum but thought I would ask here 2. What is the add-on that Dorkins (Zand) is using that shows shot cooldowns as large buttons??? been trying to find it for ages... someone posted it was cooldowntimers3 but I have tried that and all i get is one icon that changes at a stupid rate with everything coming off cooldown... PLEASE HELP ME AHHHHH lol
To back that up; I’m finding that Warrior ’spells’ take way more Rage to USE than the generate, in return, that I’ve lost interest in mine…
jeff my experiance is that its lots of warrs but most is not prot btw as a paladin tank my self im normaly off tanking but the different with warr and dk as main tank normaly is that warrs do way more threat a dk i can easely get aggro of if im not carefull.
Awesome work guys! I have two questions: at first, why there is no wrap-up on Saturday? Am i bugged? And at second, DKs are good at DPS and all we know Zand has his big bad-ass Bigwang! Why don't he try playing him in raids or dungeons?
No wonder your not holding threat Lyle. Look at your Expertise and Hit. Those two stats are play a pretty crucial role in holding threat now. I'm guessing you didn't know this as to your remarks about tanks not being able to hold threat. Your spec definitely needs work as well. I would would recommend 15/5/51. Going into the arms tree for Deep Wounds. It will greatly increase your DPS as well as threat generation. It's a fairly balanced. Put 2 points into cruelty and max out Improved Heroic Strike. You'll want to keep Heroic Strike as a rage dump attack. Keep it in queue between your main attacks. I would recommend the ring for OS 10 man for expertise rating. Once you get def. capped, start putting a few Expertise gems in. It will you help you tremendously. I also recommend TankSpot.com if your interested in learning about your class and role as a tank.
Expertise, hit, not that important to be honest--the amount you incidentally get in your gear is enough even if you always choose mitigation/avoidance first. Rather, only consider that full rage bar. It's stuck at full pretty much all the time. Spamming HS as often or even more than regular white damage attacks is the key to having a good mitigation spec and being able to hold threat at the same time. And if you're specced for maximum rage you can barely manage to hit HSes so often that you drain your rage even without a single point in improved HS. Decent block value gets shield slam crits up as well--strength and pure block value are interchangeable with hit/expertise on single target boss fights. Expertise and hit are more to ensure AoEs and taunts don't miss in multiple target fights in my opinion.

Sorry my bad grammar.
Because he is not BM spec anymore and you need the final Rare Pet talent to use worms
Hey Lore
Loving the show!
Try Ulduar next
see where u get
holla if ya hear me!
Warrior tanks are fine. Lyle didn't know how to position Maexxna initially, obviously you'll lose threat walking backwards, not using any abilities.
Learn to strafe, learn to keep your threat rotation up as you move.
Someone please tell Lyle to go watch the video guides on www.tankspot.com to see one of the best warrior tanks doing his job well.
Where are the next episodes waiting on e'm :(
Love it go one with it till I die....
Cheers,
Ariavo!
RELEASE MORE CONTENT.........STOP STARVING US!!!!
lol great videos

And the addon Dorkins is using for displaying stuff coming off cooldown is either TellMeWhen or NeedToKnow.

Mex-Nah :)
lol, mayanya, its MAKES NUH =) just incase you do this boss again =D
btw, i typed in caps because of that tip by dorkins =D

You guys should do 25 man Naxx and 10 or 25 man Uldaur
Have you guys ever heard of or played City of Heroes?
