I especially loved the little Mr. Blizzard bit. The singer was awesome and clearly skilled. And frankly, can't we all agree the draenei are the most suitable eye candy in the game? Male and female. There's no competition. I was thrilled to get to see the draenei cover the Chordettes.
All in all, I still love Nub Tales. Yumfries is doing some great work with this stuff.

WEAK! Shaman need NOTHING! ... I have 6 geared 80s (Druid, Warrior, Preist, Hunter, Rogue, Mage) and I have a feel for which are more attuned for certain situations/scenarios. I am a firm believer there is no class which is GREATLY easier to play than another, WoW is amazing at balancing and fine tuning. I will admit as a bear tank (my main by preference not time played or gear) tanking ICC is an lol combination of Maul and Swipe... gg!
I am not in an active raiding guild, Every one of my 80s is a bank alt essentially with numerous guild tabs for their individual guilds. I PuG every raid I enter and as such I am forced into a varied assortment of class make ups. Ever done 10/12 ICC with 4 rogues a dps DK in the group? I will admit the 20% buff currently helped that raid along.
I have seen every class at the top of the damage meters and argueably when there is one dps topping meters, I garuntee its not for every encounter. I dont take into account dps on trash... starfall/hurricane/gale winds is broken :-p 45k dps is UNNECESSARY.
TL:DR ...
Shaman are fine, shut up and wait for Cata.

So, shaman are fine based on your experience with characters that aren't shaman?

Grats.. you're only 4 away from you 10 lvl 80's achievement! Maybe you should work on that shammy next?

You, um...you don't get jokes, do you?
Wildebeast Jun 22nd 2010 12:48PM
My shaman is only level 76 so I didnt include it in the list of 80s. I should have mentioned it though, my bad. Also... the point of listing the classes I know is to show my diverse expereinces. Players who exclusively have a shaman cant possibly know if they have it bad or not, and I deplore elemental shaman who use spirit gear.
Message to all classes: GS UPGRADE /= DPS UPGRADE
I also realize im in COMPLETELY the wrong forum for my arguement.

Talk about missing the point and the fun. /facepalm

You didn't really understand the meaning of the video, did you?
Meatwadz Jun 22nd 2010 2:48PM
I have loved all the nub tales so far.
So far.
The singing was ... umm... really bad.
Meatwadz Jun 22nd 2010 2:56PM
Wow that got posted in the wrong reply thread. Oh well.. my point still stands. Turns out draenei are, in fact tone deaf.

Ofc, the singing wasn't very special compared to professional singers, but it was much over the average level of a WoW-singer
Qot Jun 22nd 2010 12:17PM
Wait, where's the Auto-tune? Where are the off-pitch vocals? Where is the blood elf rapping?
Is this even a machinima?
KrisseyB Jun 22nd 2010 12:43PM
Oh, there were plenty of off pitch vocals. They were all over the place. To the point it distracted me from catching all the lyrics.
AMS Jun 22nd 2010 1:44PM
Still ten times better then blood gay rap and summergale.

I really don't get why Blizz hasn't removed the dismounting part of Thunderstorm yet... they did that for pretty much every other spell that dismounted players this way...
Deathknighty Jun 22nd 2010 12:30PM
Don't kick a class when it's down, y'know?
Ben Jun 22nd 2010 12:32PM
Correct me if I'm wrong... I took my elemental shaman out of moth balls a week or two ago and found that I didn't dismount people flying in Wintergrasp.
Hih Jun 22nd 2010 12:42PM
They did remove that functionality. He's using way old footage. Hell, even the flying guards over cities wont knock you off your mount anymore.
Kidsake Jun 22nd 2010 12:34PM
All I want is a female Draenei singing barbershop quartet of my own!
I enjoyed this alot. My main's a shammy, and will be featured in a machinima soon =]
I really enjoy this series. Keep it up Yumfries!
