/sputter and Linkage
Gamers With Jobs is a great site, but the BRK Hackles were raised before we realized the dude was kidding. We demand to be allowed to drink our coffee before reading stuff that’s designed to drive us insane, capice?
He is kidding, right?
We’re gonna be busy today! Job interview, (moar money!) and another early morning launch means we’re going to be Out Of Internet for a long time. We’ll see how the blogging-time goes, especially with the BRK executive assistant on the IR.
Want stuff to read? Here. Enjoy some linkage while we break out the BRK Suit of Power and Dominance. Charcoal grey pinstripe, baby. They should be throwing greenbacks at our feet, foshizzle.
conOsinSemilia - Spanish FTW
Edit: There’s a link in the WoW Europe Community News for March we found pretty cool, too.

Hey BRK, I’m don’t have a reply in that particular thread, but I am fairly heavily involved with the GWJ guild on Blackhand-A. Yes, sadly, he isn’t kidding about the weapon enchants, or any of it. It’s why we did send him your way, for BRK is a Lord among Hunters, He who delivereth MSQoRDPS. He needed help only you could provide, and as you have spoken, he hath listened.
All Hail!
Good Luck on the interview BRK! Make sure you are all tidy and have 3 341s in your cargo pocket!
Probably isn’t kidding. I actually used to run with GWJ-A, and their level of theorycraft is about on par with this guy’s. This is a group who, for PvE content, described the need for spell penetration as “as much as you can fit in.” =)
Cheers for the linkage.
The guide shall be updated soonish.
Pets coming up soon as well.
Good luck on Interview!
BIG thanks for the reference on the post.
Let’s just hope us Europeans know how to wipe our feet before we come in…
We made sure to set him straight BRK….just like you taught us. Actually you should read the whole thread and see we are not just a bunch of rookies and do have some smarts..and thanks Baseball (EX-guildie I may add who may have a hidden agenda) for the “kind” words. Really nice!!
Hahaha, GWJ is on BRK! BRK, rest assured that myself, CrazyIvan, and AnimeJ are constantly directing all our new Hunters to this website. In fact, my wife is one of our BM Hunters who owe many of their MQoSRDPS to you! =D
Who is this Baseball jerk, anyway? I’m an officer, and I’ve never even heard of him. Suffice it to say that we are a casual guild that has some members who eat, sleep, and breathe theorycraft, and some who do not - and all are welcome as long as they hew to our mission of being excellent to each other. That post was by a guy who is still levelling, btw.

great, more shit to read…now I will never get to play
Its been a while… did you get the frikkin job or what? Did you tell them about your DPS? Did they ask about your resilience? How far have the progressed as a team?
Hi. I’m the guy who posted that above.
And just for another interesting bit of backstory regarding GWJ, et. al.
I was invited over from Dark Age of Camelot by a RL friend of mine who thought I’d enjoy playing WoW.
I have a hunter on DAoC — Midgard Galahad, lvl 50, Master Level 10, and Realm Rank 5, whom I’ve played for years there, along with my other characters - mostly warriors.
I’ve played a hunter on DAoC , and melee hunters are a viable option there with our wolf pets + bow. It’s not uncommon to see melee spec hunters. It’s what I know and what I’m used to playing, and the playstyle I’ve developed for the last 5 years on my hunter.
Bow, Pet, sword - check.
So I come to WoW … mostly solo for 30 levels, and then another guild hunter notices me with the double fierys and immediately sends me here to “straighten things out” …
’nuff said.
I’d like that taken into perspective regarding the theory behind GWJ - and understand it in context that I’ve been playing WoW for 2 weeks vs. DAoC for many years. Same class name — different game mechanics.
Problem sorted out and solved.
You go Cicc! Yeah, different games different playstyles & adjusting can take some time. Stick with it & you can pewpew with the best!
BRK, good luck & may the shuttle fly true.
I re-read through some of the comments. I honestly don’t know what “spell penetration” even *is* …
If it’s what I think it sounds like, then in DAoC we had something called “Spell Piercing” to basically overpower resists, and the hard cap on spell piercing was 10% - which my character had.
Rest assured - I eat, sleep, and breathe game theory - from back in my days in EQ, to DAoC, and I’m “slowly” coming up to speed here.
That’s why I posted the thank you to the folks at GWJ that pointed me here.
To put things more in perspective — I’ve been to deadmines instance once or twice at this point, and another guildie took me through the stockades the other night, and I was extremely proud of myself for finding my way to Gadgetan a couple nights ago.
Let’s take this stuff with a grain of salt here guys … it’s not like I’m lvl 70 out trying to raid.
That’s why I made the effort to come out and be pro-active and start learning all I can about the class and the game mechanics as I’m getting a feel for it.
I actually took my comments to the GWJ forums.
Also: Good luck on the interview!
In that case I’ll look forward to reading them once I get home. I’m behind a firewall here at work and can’t access GWJ.
writing on a friends iPhone. This is great.just thought about what bro.net would like on the iPhone. And. It’s great…. More rats and stories and stuff… Really great
I always refer people to this site. Last night in a Sethekk Halls PUG I inspected the other hunter and found a nightmare. I thought she was joking when she said she could tank but it was all too true. A total of 24 added agility from gear! The rest of the gear was spell crit and healing. When asked, she replied her spells were stronger and the pet got healed more. I am not that good but I always try to be helpful. Here’s to hoping that she was paying attention and comes to this site (or TKAsomething or EJ). Anything…please
You’re welcome, and I wasn’t kidding.
When are you gonna make the PVP is the PWNZ 4 HUNTRZ blog?
You Suck uP
Hey thx for the link.
GJ!

I’m so sorry Baseball that my comment about Spell Penetration ruined your view of GWJ’s intelligence. At the time I really didn’t fully understand penetration, though at least I knew it wasn’t all that important for mages (though, I’m not quite sure why you quoted me here, on a hunter site…?), so I said to fit as much in AFTER mana/int, damage, crit, hit, and HP. Way to go, taking that comment out of context.
I have now deleted the entire post, since it’s really not relevant anymore anyway, but if you wish to continue mocking my outdated view of the game then you can do so with the cached page in Google. Just please stop publically bashing the entire guild for it.
-Pur.

Thanks for the link!
I have never played a hunter at any level, but I read this site because the wisdom behind the hunter-specific advice and strategies can often be generalized to the game as a whole. And its an entertaining read, as well.
If I ever do roll a hunter, I promise I won’t be a huntard.
