Solo Moam as a Ret Paladin
Moam is the third boss in AQ20 that I attempted to solo as a Ret Paladin, and I did so with ridiculously easy success. Not much strategy here, but I will say that if the Ooze trash mobs on the way to Moam manage to start consuming you, you’re in trouble. The first consume I ran into was easy to bubble out of. The second one killed me. I did manage to kill a couple as well, but my recommendation is to completely skip them if possible.

A Mastery system preview for Cataclysm has been posted on he WoW forums. Eyonix has briefly explained the mission and goals for the mastery system, which will revamp the current talent trees. What is clear is that Blizzard isn’t a huge fan of generalized damage increase talents, such as, increase damage by 1%/2%/3%, etc. They look to replace that with master talents, to give more fun and robust talents a chance to be used.
It’s true we tend to rely on cookie cutter talent builds to maximize DPS, and rightfully so, …
Solo General Rajaxx as a Ret Paladin
When I made Khor, my Retribution Paladin, one of the first things I did upon reaching level 80 was attempt to solo Onyxia, ZG, and AQ20. I was able to solo Onyxia, and ZG wasn’t far behind. AQ20 was more difficult, and after wiping on Kurinnaxx several times, I decided to skip him and try Rajaxx. He also wiped me several times.
Now, after many gear upgrades, I was able to one shot him with my normal approach. He does have a heavy knockback that deals around …
Solo Kurinnaxx as a Ret Paladin
Soloing AQ10 as a Retribution Paladin has long been on my to-do list. I have tried several times with lesser gear, and come up short. I also wasn’t really modifying my tactics, and put forth some very weak efforts. Not this time, though. Kurinnaxx is first on my solo list, and I will cover my strategy here.
The fight is a very simple one, but you do have to be mindful of a couple of Kurinnaxx’s abilities. The simple strat is to kite him around in …
Alright guys, Patch 3.3.3 is bring some changes, and if you want to make some money in the Auction House, now is the time to start paying attention. While I did a Frozen Orb post not too long ago, I am going to take a further look at what these pre-Cataclysm changes mean.
Titanium Bars and Tailoring Cloth
The cooldowns for Titanium Bars, Spellweave, Ebonweave, and Moonshroud have been removed. Watch the AH closely, and the closer we get to 3.3.3, the lower these prices will get. I am labeling these as …
World of Warcraft: Cataclysm will be a brand new game, rebuilt from the ground up. As a player, I have tremendouslyenjoyed the 5+ years I have spent playing WoW. Part of the fascination is the new content and ever changing gameplay, while the other half is the wide variety of things available to do in game. Blizzard will now be tearing down their old world, rebuilding it for a re-launch (so-to-speak) of World of Warcraft.
So why re-do the whole of Azeroth? One thing I love to do is analyze why …
Here is a post from Eyonix about the upcoming stat and system changes to our gear, gems, etc. in WoW Cataclysm: [Source]
A couple key things to note concerning Retribution Paladins:
Reforging will allow re-distribution of certain stats. Certain stat changes will not be permitted, such as Stamina to Strength.
Ret Paladins will be getting mana through other means, no Intellect on gear (a given).
Armor Pen is out, will be converted to crit or haste.
Ratings will be much more difficult to cap in Cataclysm. This means no easy hit caps.
Weapon skill is gone. …
