Yes, I've said it many times already, but this time it's the truth. After learning about how one of the talents I had in my 1.11 build, I changed my mind yet again, and I'm now officially set at a 11/0/40 build. The 1.11 patch notes are also up to date, which I linked to in my previous post.

Last night was a pretty fun night. We killed Ony, then went out on our own to farm mats and reputation to get attuned for Nax. So I did an Undead Stratholme run, got my Polymorph: Pig spell, helped clear a Scourge Invasion area with 3 other mages, and wrapped up the night with a pretty fun time in Scholomance. Even though we died a few times, having 1 warrior, 1 rogue, 1 priest, and 2 Ice mages, we cleared the whole thing pretty quickly.

Ok, this time I think I'm done... I swear. After seeing some mage videos, I think I want the Frostbite talent, which has a chance to freeze the target in place. I figured this would be nice for when I farm for stuff, so I've updated my Profile's talents.

Well, last Thursday I was hoping for double-Netherwind, but unfortunately not a single one dropped. Luckily, we were able to kill Nef before the major lag hit. On our way down to AQ40, the server decided to crash and go down for a bit. All of the chat functions worked, but people were disconnecting left and right. Casting/looting didn't work either. Supposedly, while this was all going on, Stormrage wasn't even in the list of realms to select. It came back up a little while later, but the raid was called for the night already.

Last week, I recorded 2 of our kills with Fraps, one of Ragnaros and the other of Nefarian. The Rag fight ended up being our best time... 14isih% before the suns, and a total of just over 5 minutes long. Rag was somewhere around 19m22s or so. I'm currently working on the Nefarian video, but my Rag one has been posted on Google Video. If you have some free time while in queue to WoW, why not take a look?

Well, not much news lately (since I haven't really played all weekend), but I have updated my Profile recently. You'll notice that at the bottom of the page, there are 5 bags shown. These represent the bags I have on Unbarc, and show what I carry in them. Why would I do this? Because I'm bored as hell at work, that's why.

Last night I spent some time on the Test realm, messing with a few different specs. For about 3 days, I played with a talent calculator, and thought I had decided on an Elemental (Fire/Ice) spec, but after killing a bit with it, I realized that I didn't like it at all. So I went back to one of my previous specs that I had made, and hoepfully this will be what I settle with.

There are a few things I'll really have to get used to with this build...

1. No Arcane Power
2. No Arcane Mind (increases mana)
3. No PoM (insta-water no more)
4. Ice Block (never had/used before)
5. Ice Barrier (see #4)

I guess I'll just see how it goes.
