Question of the Week: Cataclysm
by Sunfyre on Oct.09, 2010, under Cataclysm, General
What one thing are you most excited about in Cataclysm?
There’s a lot of things I’m excited for, but I think being able to be a Troll would be number one.
Oh, and I’m also glad that ground mounts are becoming a thing of the past and I’ll never have to listen to a damn chopper again.

Latest on Mon, 08:03 pmSunfyre: When you hit 0 energy, in 5.1, you'd go to 20 energy. + 40 energy from one cast to 60 energy, + 40 energy from cast #2, that's 100 energy. Now you go from 0 energy to 40 energy. Cast #1 brings you to 80. Cast #2 is still required, and it brings you to 100 energy (which is really 120 but you get nothing for that extra energy). The amount of casts did not change. 2.
gore: Wait, what you just said doesn't make sense. What makes us go straight to 20 energy? With SotF it takes 2 casts to reach lunar. 2 casts to reach solar. Without SotF it takes 3, correct me if i'm wrong.
S: Sorry, I don't understand where your getting the 20 from, 100 80 60 40 20 0 40 80 100 or sotf 100 80 60 40 20 0 (40 sf + 40 sotf) 80 120 ??
Madnz: Hi sunfyre, how would you say the 4p t15 will be with SoTF? Does that also maybe make mastery more valuable?
Sunfyre: You already go 20-Lunar, 60, 100. Going 40-80-100(120) is the same amount of casts to hit 100.
Cohumulone: Hey Sunfyre. I'm trying to wrap my head around what you've been saying about SotF. How exactly does it not reduce Starfire casts by 1?
Braeden: Started a Druid....3 days ago or something like that.... Anyways i got to lvl 60 and im not using gear SETS so much as im using the things that look especially helpful such as Int and Spir Stacke, Occasionally with some 14-15 haste involved..... Im not one of those guys who go out and get the best pve/pvp gear But i really need some help..... im a resto balance mix and well my hits are only doing about 5K at lvl 60 :/ what sohuld i do?
Sunfyre: SoTF wasn't much of a buff. It didn't reduce starfire casts to lunar, and only reduced wrath casts by potentially one. I'd stick with incarnation.
Yazgot: Hi Sunfyre! Have you tried SotF+NV/HoTW vs Inv+NV/HoTW on PTR? If not, will you do this?
Sunfyre: Light of the Cosmos is our best in slot. You should be able to reforge a lot of haste into crit once you get it, since it'll give you about an additional 1000 haste.
Moonkin Count!

If only they would upgrade Anzu to a flying mount. And on that point, if only it would drop!!!

Bah, hit publish. I dunno really. Seeing a new Azeroth might be it for me. I thought Trolls will be made available on 4.0.3 patch before Cata. Which I am all over, as long as they leave berserk alone.
I love the way Vol’jin is taking Cairne’s place and standing up to Garrosh. Cairne’s death was really a bummer for me, just glad Garrosh had nothing to do with it, because I’d have a hard time being a Horde under that idiot.
Really hope Thrall knows what he is doing. Because its off to a bad start.
Vol’jin FTW!!!

Can’t wait to explore the new world! All the new zones and quests. I wanna know the history behind every zone and quest. Looking forward to find out more about the Dragonmaw and Cho’gall.
