when choosing gear, enchants, and everything else, my rogue would be lost without shadowpanther.net

PvE, PvP, consumables, twinking, etc etc etc – it’s got it all

i used it while leveling to decide which quest rewards to keep, and which to vendor (or d/e).

You can hop on any time and find one of the officers or myself, and they/I will be more than happy to let you into the guild

Excellent post. And although this a little offtopic just curious if you would still be taking people in on Fenris. I have not been there in quite awhile due to family issues which are now resolved. Also I have mainly been an alliance player but am almost convinced to re-roll horde. So just wondering if you would still welcome people in.

I’ve been what those things are for. The pit in Acherus is full of them.

Whenever I see those number and equation filled threads my finger works pretty fast to scroll away… I did, however, make myself research shot rotations for my hunter during TBC and it did improve my performance quite a bit and I found myself out dpsing other hunters who were better geared than I simply because I knew how do deal damage better and more efficiently. This is some great info and good motivation to get back to research with all the changes WotLK has brought so thanks for giving us some more great tools.

I’m not even 80 yet, and just by using the dummies to check my damage, I was able to raise my DPS by 300. Great post on the matter, awesome links. Nice.

Excellent advice Gavin. I never would of thought to use the training dummies even as early as level 71 rogue to test and see if i can be performing better or if i’m below par. Keep up the great work
