Paramedics arrived and administered up up down down left right left right b a b a, which revived the stab victim immediately.

Even its catchphrase is terrifying:

"It's Nerf or NOTHIN'!"

Wittenberg Dropout: It's legit, he opened with a garrotte, hit hemo a few times and finished with a four point evisc. Anything more might pull aggro off the tank!

Moot point nowadays with Tricks of the Trade, especially with the glyph theres no reason not to keep it rolling, it should be focus macrod and part of any good rogues rotation.

My first reaction was to think, great, this is all those morons spouting off about video games and violence need. But when I think of video games, I typically think of Xbox and playstation. These WoW and other mmorpg players really are in a world apart from what most people think of as a gamer, they're literally obsessed with this shiat. Sure you may get some kid who wastes away a whole weekend playing CoD or Halo, but I've never heard of someone playing CoD for 20 hours a day, 7 days a week for a years on end. These farkers have issues.

Caller: "XYZZY!"

CrispFlows: Stabber needs to get a better dagger - not enough melee damage.

/ I wonder how many people started thinking of prices as:
1 pennies = copper
1 dollar = silver
100 dollars = 1 gold.

// just for the hell of it.

I need to consciously remember not to ask store employees how much gold something costs when I am in stores...It has happened.

Sorry for your loss.

I can only imagine the levels of crazy that would have erupted if "Dark Millennium" had actually been a MMORPG like WoW.

Actually, that glyph removes the threat transfer now, so he's better off unglyphed, but still using ToT to get those five point hits.

Gotta be careful. Some of those nerds have extensive collections of weapons.

IDK what youre talking about, they didnt remove the threat transfer, thats the entire point of the ability, glyphed it just reduceds the damage bonus on the target, and i guess in beta the bonus is removed completely.

Tricks of the Trade 15 Energy 100 yd range
Instant
The threat caused by your next damaging attack and all actions taken for 6 sec afterwards will be transferred to the target party or raid member, and all damage caused by the target is increased by 15% during this time. Transferred threat is not permanent, and will fade after 30 sec.

Glyph of Tricks of the Trade (LIVE)
Major Glyph
Removes the Energy cost of your Tricks of the Trade ability but reduces the recipient's damage bonus by 5%.

Glyph of Tricks of the Trade (BETA)
Minor Glyph
Your Tricks of the Trade ability no longer costs Energy, but also no longer increases the damage dealt by the target.

Wait, into the battlefield from where. Why even bother with the sacrifice if you can activate that from the graveyard?

reverend maynard: Stabbed in the chest and is only charged with aggravated assault?

My first thought. Someone stabs you in the chest, it is pretty obvious they are trying to kill you. It isn't like he cut his arm or his hand, the dude was going for vital organs.

My second thought was this Mt. Dew is warm and i dropped my cheetos.

Calypsocookie		2012-07-12 08:46:28 PM

At least he didn't die and have to run all the say back from the graveyard. Pain in the arse.

Sgygus		2012-07-12 08:47:07 PM

Maybe the weapon used was the less-than-fearsome vorpal knife of butter.

Maybe the guy stabbed him with a remote control.

Wilcutt: My first thought was he should have minded his own business.

You've either never lived in an apartment or been lucky enough to always have sane, quiet neighbors. I've never actually gone over to a neighbor's house, but I used to live in a place where I'd occasionally have to bang on and yell through the wall to quiet the idiot next to me when he decided it was a great time to turn his stereo up while everybody else on the floor seemed to think it was time for bed. I suspect pot was frequently involved which is why he often "forgot" about prior arguments.

I will never rent again unless something goes very horribly wrong in my life. It's one of those situations where the vast majority of people are great and fine to live near, but it doesn't matter because it only takes one complete and utter asswipe out of a dozen to ruin everything.

Stabbee should switch back to Everquest - everyone there is 30+ and less stabby.

Back in my WoW days I once told a customer that discounts don't stack. Oddly enough, she got it.

Well, there's your problem. You might be able to talk reasonably with your neighbors, but you damned well better stay away from those neighbours. They're just batshiat crazy, and you should know better.

alabasterblack: I need to consciously remember not to ask store employees how much gold something costs when I am in stores...It has happened.

Back when I was bigger into playing emulated games I would use quicksaves and quickloads a lot on hard parts of certain games or just to experiment and see what different choices in the game did.

At one point I did it so much that I actually thought to myself in the real world "I should save before I try this in case it doesn't work".

/ I immediately felt a bit silly
