For a little background, I leveled (quite painfully) to 70 on a PvP server, and grew a serious distaste for the stuff. Since my transfer Gnomeregan, I've really been able to shine -- if an evil, maniacal, shadow-obsessed demon-summoner can really "shine".

I enjoy working up my own custom UI, and I build macros to make my game easier. I try to keep abreast of the UI, Addons and Macros subforum. If you have any related questions, I should see them there.

It hurts so good

Posted Yesterday at 02:04 AM by Cormanthor (The Solo Warlock)

Such is the life of a computer geek / WoW addict.

I get Gentoo Linux installed, recompile the kernel about a dozen times to get the necessary options in there... and STILL Wine refuses to cooperate. I did have a few issues with getting Gentoo installed that I've never run into before. Namely a failure to completely boot with either the framebuffer enabled or ACPI power management on. And to frustrate matters further, every tine I had to compile the kernel, ACPI would re-enable...

Bring the pain

And thus it begins.
The time comes when one must accept the oncoming of inevitability as assuredly as one must take in a last breath. I am not a person to quietly follow the masses towards the same mediocre destination. Is this the electronic equivalent of...

Relearning my spec

Posted October 31, 2009 at 05:16 AM by Cormanthor (The Solo Warlock)
Tags demo, destro, spec

Now that I am "Cormanthor the Hallowed", I can respec out of my temporary Affliction PvP build. My primary build for some time now has been the standard 0/13/58, sometimes varied for the extra-chocolatey cookies. But what should I put in my off spec?
I toyed around with the idea of staying Affliction. It was a great deal of fun to DoT up the known world, pull more mobs than most tanks would, and laugh as they run around til dead. But for some reason, I can't get into that spec in...

I've been a busy little warlock as of late. I've gotten three projects to at least semi-complete status.

1st: My UI is just about right. I'll consider a few color tweaks, maybe a font change, or some minor positioning modifications. But overall, I am very happy with the state of my UI.


2nd: I got my Emblem Spending Guide ready for 3.3 (minus the Emblem of Frost gear). This is a total rewrite...

Dual Spec? To what? DPS and...?

Posted April 23, 2009 at 01:25 AM by Cormanthor (The Solo Warlock)
Updated October 31, 2009 at 04:25 AM by Cormanthor (Categorized my blog)

So I thought to myself as I prepared for 3.1 and the long awaited Dual Spec feature...

Why should I waste a thousand gold to spec DPS / DPS?

I figured I'd dual spec my DK for tanking and DPSing, which to me makes perfect sense for any hybrid class. But for those of us more interested in our Pure DPSers, I figured it was a sure waste of 1000g. Then I read up on Ulduar, and the pet lifespan issues people were having. I looked and read some more, eventually deciding on leaving my...
