    Not sure about that one. I don't use any of the special layouts. I have mine color the names based on role so Tanks are blue, dps red and healers green. Makes it easy to spot tanks for me.

    Yeah according to them anyway. They have some point system for how big of an upgrade it's supposed to be. I try to go for stuff that's 100 points or better. Here is what they say to bonus roll on for you:

    I found a solution to the Grid2 problem when you split people into unused groups (i.e. Butcher). The problem happens because Grid2 does not by default give you the option to layout by group with a higher raid size so if we have 15 people it will only show 3 groups and anyone put into the 4th...

    I just go by Ask Mr. Robot, I'm really not super knowledgeable on the math behind it. Robot has tons of upgrades for you in both H HM and N BRF. If you go by the point value, they show 100+ on lots of items. Shadowganj @ Hyjal (US) - Ask Mr. Robot - World of Warcraft

    It's actually intended that you take higher Ilvl with worse stats. That's why gem slots and enchants are so important. I just use the mr robot addon to analyze what's better. It's almost always been the higher Ilvl unless the lower one has a gem slot.

    my wife is pretty damned good with Excel, I honestly don't know shit about it, but am good with math and conditional logic (though my HL programming may seem inferior to your LL experience heh). It cracks me up though because she'll get stuck working out some complex formula and ask me for help...

    I'd like to do maidens. I think we could have got them last time in 2-3 more pulls. I was using a macro '/tar Dom' which seems to work pretty well for those cannons. Don't know if anyone else was having trouble finding them like me on the first go around, but I just could not find it the first...

    I have a 6/7 HM lockout if there is interest in an AOTC run. Could be on tonight around 10pm EST or so and of course will be on tomorrow morning.

    Heh sounds so familiar. We should manufacture some womanesque work drama stories like - "Don put a comment in the web.config file that I know was directed at me because I forget to change the SQL conn strings from dev to prod sometimes and he's just trying to make me look bad!"

    It only requires lvl 1 to make it and equip it. Just gotta buy the recipe with alchemical catalyst. All of the Draenor recipes only require lvl 1 to make.

    Interesting I had not seen that. I wonder if the lesser stones are equippable or if it's only the fully upgraded one?

    The winged hourglass is the healer inscription trinket. I think the caster one is the sandman pouch. Keep in mind you have to have the alchemy profession to wear the alchemy ones too. They are bop, so you have to make them.

    Mr Robot ranks it above the inscription trinket at all stages for DPS and Heals. I'm just stoked to have a trinket I can use in both specs.

    Yeah the alchemy ones. They increase heal or mana pots by 40% and proc str,int,or agi. I believe the 680 version was parsed to add about 368 str/int/agi normalized. Oh yeah they have versatility too, which is meh. Stone of Fire - Item - World of Warcraft

    Yeah I don't think they would be too good for blood, but for DPS and Healing the 680 version is BiS over all of H HM and N BRF.

    don't see why not. As for EF you really only want to use 3HP EF and use it basically as another Holy Light. The initial heal is the primary concern and the hot is just an extra. Again for max HPS throw it on the raid, but I do try to keep it in tanks myself.

    Yeah you want to let beacons heal the tanks and focus on the raid. I started off the same way as you by spam healing tanks as well. I installed weak auras and that has really helped my throughput. I basically just use 3 to show me when HS, EF and Prism are up. That way I can always get HS on...

    Does he like pepperoni sticks? They suck for salt content but are pretty calorie dense otherwise. 2-3 per day could easily introduce another 350-500 calories. My kid can eat them non stop so I had to quit buying them.

    Pop tarts you can stand on the conveyor and keep casting. You can just spread away from the group and not even move for slams if you set yourself up right. On the stamp phase, just go every man for himself. Don't even worry about casting, just do Holy Shocks and maybe Holy Light when it's...

    I really only need stuff out of BRF. Tier and trinkets, though my trinkets suck so bad HM trinkets would be an upgrade. If the alchemy trader ever pops I'll have one trinket covered.

    Tried seraphim on N Gruul. I don't like having the extra HP finisher to manage every 30s and I'm sure I played it pretty sub optimally but it was still about a 4k dps increase overall.
