Demo lock with dark apoth really is pretty op ;p My lock at 86 soloed onyxia easier than my 90 mage, prot war or feral druid, thanks to being basically a tank + ranged damage for flying phase.

Go for it! :) We had a lot of time to spare at the end, so it’s entirely possible I could have managed on my own within those ten minutes. And you probably can avoid more of the trash than we did with camouflage, right? Potions of invis would work well, too.

Well my favorite pocket pally would gladly go along with me…if I was smart, I’d finish leveling up MY bear, and face-tank my way through those Troll dungeons. But there’s something about putting all your faith into your pet, in knowing that if you fail to keep them alive, you’re toast. My hunter’s bear is her buddy, her semi-constant companion. I may give it the old college try before I concede and bring in the pocket pally.

Heh. This post made me interested in dorking around with my warlock again. Put three levels on her last night. Enjoying the heck out of being half-demon with the glyph of demon hunting and dark apotheosis. May have to dust off the 71 Horde warlock too… poor thing’s been twiddling her thumbs in Borean Tundra since Wrath…

haha, we’re being totally opposite right now. I was playing my lock but have put her on the bench for the past month or so as I level up my Hunter :) Hunter seems to be soloing rares in Pandaria a lot easier, which is one of my favorite things to do at the moment.

Green fire will bring me back to the lock, even if only for a bit in 5.2. I’m glad you’re enjoying it!

You can definitely two man a bear run in ZA, but it might be tough. A blood DK and my Afflock did it with a ton of time left, but that was mostly because he could hold stupid large amounts of trash at once.

I have now soloed Ruby Sanctum as affliction, and am working on tier 7 of brawler’s guild at ilvl 489, having had to go demo for Yikkan Izu, but otherwise all affliction. It really is a class with genuinely different ways to go – possibly their greatest success to date for a “pure” class’s design, possibly for all classes. I just can’t quite get the swing of demo – so much to remember! – and destro doesn’t feel quite right.

I did get the priest up to 90 last week, outfitted him with the inscription 476 staff, and look forward to gearing for/learning disc as soon as shadow becomes a little less fun. It’s no affliction, but the versatility combined with only having sufficient playtime to cap valor on one toon a week is kind of calling to me. No where close to as elegant as affliction though. :)

Me on my hunter (with my pet bear) and my friend on her holy pally (the bear is her focus) clear through…pretty much whatever try. We’ve got up to Yoggy in Ulduar before we got our asses handed to us. We brought in the rest of our guild (the other two members….yep) and took down Yoggy/Algalon and poor little Arthas. Still, I like soloing old content on the Hunter. I’m probably going to start trying the troll dungeons shortly for mounts. And I love me some mounts!

Big update from Poneria http://felconcentration.wordpress.com instead of Dark Apotheosis and Mannoroth, you can use the level 90 talent Archimonde’s Revenge to ensure you always get aggro on any mob attacking Razorgore, taking the uncertainty out of it.

I’m not sure if I’m going to try that next time, or stay with what worked. :)
