		<description><![CDATA[I am overall satisfied with how Season 7 went for my RMP. We hit 80 roughly a week before the season started and geared our characters from all blues/greens to almost full relentless. I am happy to say that none of us bought rating to get weapons or any other gear, all of our progress was due to hard work and learning our comp. Although I had originally expected to end the season with a higher rating, I am fine with where we did end due to some bad losses to counter-comps where we would lose ridiculous amounts of points while hard wins would net us only a few.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Prot Warriors have been the topic as of late. You may have noticed a Prot Warrior team reaching 3000 rating and maybe the Prot Warrior team that played at MLG Orlando this past weekend. It is undeniable if you have played against them that Prot Warriors are a serious threat in PvP. With the current state, Blizzard has announced that they will be nerfing Prot Warrior PvP. Here are my views on the topic.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As promised, here is some video captured during our arena matches last weekend. The matches are between 1850 and 1900 rating. We played many comps like beast cleave, mirror, spell cleave, TSG, etc. I spent a lot of time during these matches doing offensive dispelling, more than usual. The challenge of playing a disc priest is the balance between defensive and offensive play. I have had teammates get global'd during a holy fire cast.

RMP is a lot of fun because of the diverse strategies vs the various comps. We don't just pick a target to try and global, we pick our CC targets and damage targets and switch when needed. Hopefully these matches offer some strategies for your RMP or other comp.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The new change to the PvP daily quest is that it awards 25 arena points as well as the honor and gold that it previously did. While 25 points doesn't seem like that many, it sure adds up quickly. You can potentially get 175 points per week through doing the PvP daily every day. That amounts to a decent rating increase you would have needed before to get those points per week. This among many other things is an example of what Blizzard is doing right with the game. Here is my initial impressions on the changes made in Patch 3.3.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It may never have affected you, you might not even have realized it, but keybound abilities in World of Warcraft do not activate until you release the key. This is usually a millisecond difference in most situations, but there may be a time where your key release isn't instantaneous and the ability will come late.

In your arena matches, that little amount of time could be too late. We've all had that moment where a heal just barely didn't go off in time or a CC didn't hit quite fast enough. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A large part of what makes Arenas fun for me is the amount of competition. The same thing that turns people away from Arenas because they are too competitive, is the same thing that I like about them. The changing competition and inability to fully predict what the enemy will do next is what keeps me coming back. If you are more into raiding, imagine if your guild finally got to Anub'Arak except he changed tactics every time you tried to down him. There is no more phases, no more emotes or timers to predict when he'll use his abilities; only raw teamwork can even come close to beating him. How many of you would still raid? How many wouldn't fall asleep like you normally do when you run old content?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just picked up my relentless weapons last week. Our current goal is to push for a 2000 rating once we pick up more gear. We are happy with the amount of points that we are obtaining per week currently and are happy to be in the top 1000 teams in our battlegroup with our gear. All of us have obtained every piece of gear that we wanted short of our relentless main set pieces.

Now the waiting begins. Currently, to complete my relentless set (not including the t2 weapon), it will take 8500 arena points to buy that gear or 10 weeks at our current rating. Obviously at some point we'll have to get 2000 and higher for the gear and that will cut down on some time. Overall, I'm still looking at at least six weeks of waiting for arena points to calculate. This amounts to very little time spent working on this during a week.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I've always wondered how long I would play World of Warcraft. From the first few moments that I played it, I know that it would hold my attention for a while. Nevertheless, I couldn't have predicted that I would still be playing it 4-5 years later. I probably would have laughed at the notion at the time. The longest I had ever played a single game was only for a few months at the time. In fact, I have "quit" WoW multiple times (more like took a hiatus). The 4-5 years of playing might never have happened.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had a long post written for this past weekend. It was the culmination of my frustrations over not being able to hit 1800 to get relentless weapons. For my gear, I was losing a lot of spell power by gemming for the resilience that I need to stay competitive in arenas. I have also been wearing a WG trinket instead of my battlemaster's because of the resilience. There was no other solution to getting that SP back other than getting the relentless weapons.

I ended up scrapping the whole post because we were able to hit 1800 on our 3v3 team on Saturday. I had a blast playing and it felt good to be able to accomplish a big task without being carried. We have worked hard for the rating and deserve it.]]></description>
