Gripe of the Week: The Warcraft Drug
by Sunfyre on May.01, 2010, under Gripe of the Week
So apparently I can’t go cold turkey from the Warcraft Drug. I managed to get talked back into raiding again since it’s only 2-3 times a week, and while I often will be out of town and unable to raid, the times I’m not I’ll be working from home and able to do my errands/etc during the day and not consume my whole day with work + raiding.
Have any of you ever had this problem where you just can’t walk away?

Latest on Thu, 09:38 pm: They just updated the 4pc T13 again. 10% Bonus damage and 5 seconds reduced CD.
: Btw, it's not worth it to acctually refresh your dot when it proc...just play as if it's a normal weap... The 2,5 sec you loose refreshing your dot could have been used to get more eclipse utpime and thus benefiting from Nature's grace, which is more important.
: It pretty much averages out to 300 haste all the time, which isnt bad, but you're right it's hard to predict when it'll proc and casting dots accordingly. I feel the extra haste to the raid is worth it though.
: our 4 set bonus has been changed to 10% increased starsurge dmg
: Buffing T13 4 piece set bonus! Yay we can finally use our new tier set.

Oh hell yeah. Back in BC this was pretty terrible. I was raiding with a late night guild from Pacific time (and I’m form Montreal) So they were always playing till like 2 am THEIR time, I was up with them till then. So I wasn’t asleep till 6 AM and started skipping class to sleep. Dark days indeed!

Not really as WoW always comes last in my priority list.
However …
I do like to play it because of the online ‘friends’ I have made. Quitting WoW means quitting to play with them which kinda sucks.

Yeah, I do have the same problem as you, but I think im starting to being able to manage my time now, before it was even worse when i didnt finish off important stuff because of raiding.

I started playing since Beta in europe. And seriously I didnt manage the time I spent on wow till about 3 months ago.. so lots of years wasted on my behalf
Looking forward to SC2 though.. kinda miss a good RTS game.

Hah, I knew you couldn’t quit. You need to give me the bear card from J.Z. Good luck with your upcoming changes.
