Hey, gang! How's it going?
Things haven't been so good here in Sparta (lol bet you didn't see that one coming) and a lot of people are sad. Another of my people left again and it really upset me. He was our main healer and he was I thought a friend, but when I logged in I saw that he was gone. I asked him why and he said "you don't wanna know" I asked him what he meant and he said:
"it's because you're bad"
Isn't that a rude thing to say? I was mad for a minute and I wasn't. I remembered that he let me die on a lot of fights. I was upset because just the night before he was telling me how much fun eh was having fun with CoH now that it had a cooldown on it. I was glad that he liked it, because it helped us a lot when we were fighting Sartharion! We almost beat him, he is at 50%!
What should I do now do you think? I don't want to replace him because that means he will be gone forever but if I don't then we can't raid anymore and we're just starting to get good at it. I guess old 300 TPS will have to do some soul searching, lol.
Anyone want to join a guild? We have Sarth at 50%, we beat Kel'Thuzzad!, and we have Malygos to phase 2 (his swirly thing is scary lol, i almost die from it!)
I hope everything works out. I don't want to go back to my old guild.
They were bad!

Hi there! I'm 300!
Hey, gang. I've been talking with a lot of people in my guild about ways to improve one's game play and decided that it would be most beneficial if I shared my tips and secrets with those that also play this game, in the event that perhaps you can find your way through the difficulties that we have managed to overcome in the previous moments of game play time.
I have decided to hide the identity of my guild because I am shy and do not want people to know exactly who I am, but I assure you that my credentials in tanking are without parallel. Although I have only recently begun to tank once more in Wrath of the Lich King, I was able to keep a steady TPS of 300 in Zul'Aman, something that gained me the title "300 TPS" by my friends because they were so impressed with my ability to hold aggro over those many could not dream of being able to compare with. So you can call me 3TPS or 300 if you like, 300 is one of my favorite movies and I sometimes quote it on difficult pulls because it's really cool and people think it's funny.
That is a very important part of being the main tank of your guild. You have to be able to be funny and keep people entertained because a lot of the time they will be upset when you wipe, and it's always good to make sure that you have a lot of jokes to say because wiping in this new expansion happens a lot, even for me! But don't feel bad if you have trouble in this expansion because Blizzard has said it is very difficult to access all that is going on at the moment and you need to have a very good composition of players as well as add-ons in order to overcome the many challenges that will be presented to you by the enemy when you face them.
I use Omen3 it is a very good add-on that shows you the TPS of the people around. I have my dpsers put on a 80% damage threshold because sometimes if they crit they will jump up to my threat and if they go past I think it's 100% of my threat then they will be able to tank for a minute. Occasionally we have a rogue that will do this and I just tell him to pop evasion and tank lol! My spec is very good for being able to DPS on the fly if I need to, so I'll put on my double 2-handers and whack at the bad guy until it's back on me. I'll even use death wish and recklessness sometimes for the extra threat that's when I hit 300tps which is why I have this name (lol, you figured that out, right?)
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=LZ0EcchburIRbkAoiIxM That is my spec, it's very versatile and I try to use all the hybrid parts of being a warrior to help my tanking it makes sure that even if something bad happens I can dps down the bad guy with other people and we'll win. (I sometimes use this spec if the boss is hard: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=LMZMZiItrgfdidIdsGo but I don't have to a lot because we usually can beat a boss after a few wipes sometimes 12, so no worries! Hehe!)
So anyway that is enough about me I think I want to make sure that you are good at what you do. One tip that I have is for Anub'rekhan we just beat him this week after a few times wiping and we figured out that when his butt goes in the air you gotta get out of there! Lol, I say that on vent now it's like a song "When the butt is in the air; get out of there!" I think he does a nasty AoE and if you run away to it then you get away and can dps him on the other side. Make sure you don't pick up the add that spawns when you do that, we wiped a few times on that! Lol! This is Sparta!
So yes I hope that helps some of you out there, because it took me awhile to get it down perfect. If you want to have anymore help just comment me and I will get back to you as soon as possible I also tank as a feral druid and I have a paladin too so I'm very knowledged and can help you with all the hard questions you have.
Next week we're going to beat Faerlina, I know it!
