Ohai blog, long time no see!

Posted by Brunty in General WoW, Real Life Rambles & Rants on October 15, 2009

Oh joy, not been doing this long and already an excuse blog entry! Anyway, I've not updated my UI series of posts as I'm awaiting the arrival of a new computer, which means using my larger screen and adjusting my UI accordingly - so I decided I'd wait until that's sorted before continuing, while I hope the UI will remain much the same (although with more space) things could change due… Continue reading

Authenticator note! New iPhone, new serial?

Posted by Brunty in Uncategorized on September 23, 2009

A note to anyone using the Authenticator on the iPhone (I would guess it's the same on an iPod Touch but I can't comment) When I restored my previous iPhone from a backup (created from the same iPhone) the Authenticator worked fine, no serial number changes and I was happy as Larry. Fast forward 2 days, I'm taking my iPhone into Apple to get it looked at.  I get a new phone… Continue reading

My UI in parts. Part 1: What do I want to achieve with my UI?

Posted by Brunty in Addons & UI Related on September 12, 2009

I'll be going through my UI as a tank in separate (more manageable) parts structed like so:
  1. What do I want to achieve with my UI?
  2. Positioning, spacing and visibility.
  3. Unitframes: What they mean and what they can do.
  4. Action bars, keybindings and (useful) macros.
  5. Other essentials: 'Meters' and Monitors
  6. The 'frilly' stuff.
The addons and elements of my UI function for a DPS-offspec too, but as tanking is my main spec, I would think it's fairly… Continue reading

Do you ‘focus’ in WoW?

Posted by Brunty in Addons & UI Related, Mods on September 11, 2009

I'll admit it, for a long period, I didn't use the Focus Frame.  Partly due to the fact I used AG_Unitframes as my unit frame addon and it (for some strange reason) didn't support the Focus Frame for me.  I tried setting it and would simply get a message that it had been disabled with AG_UF and to use it I'd have to disable the unit frames and go back… Continue reading

Glory of the Hero

Posted by Brunty in Achievements, Dungeons & Raids on September 10, 2009

I've been going for my [Glory of the Hero] achievement for a while now, on and off whenever I run heroics.  Generally I run with the same healer (a rather awesome Paladin) and there's not a lot we couldn't do. Except for [Watch Him Die] ... we tried zerging, control with 2 tanks and after trying a good 20+ times over months we stopped.  My pally friend Continue reading

Brunty has earned the achievement [Can has blog?]

Posted by Brunty in General WoW on September 10, 2009

Welcome one and all! I'll direct you to the 'About' page if you wish to know a bit more about me, otherwise stick around here and we'll tell tales by the campfire! Well, here's some of my WoW history (copied from an e-mail I wrote a while back, updated since then!) I started playing WoW back in September / October of 2007, a couple of close friends played and pestered me to join them. I rolled a Human Rogue (Shajona) and slowly levelled him to 70, the day I hit 70 my guild took me into Kara and the raiding bug hit me Continue reading
