Bleh.

I think I'm coming down with a cold, and my subconscious decided to spend the night kicking me in the teeth with nightmares. I tell you, /no one/ can tear you apart like yourself, when you're motivated enough.

Also, I may have lost my voice recorder. This would be...bad. I'll check my pants' pockets when I get home. If it's not in there, though, I'll have to start a load of laundry, then go out and buy a new one. Guh.

EDIT: Yep, I /did/ lose it, and someone just returned it. SUCH A NICE PERSON.

...and Enchanting was way, way too expensive a profession. I moved to alchemy instead. Have herbalism already, so it's not a bad fit. I'd love to be able to figure out where I'm supposed to learn how to fish, though. I can find fishing vendors, and fishing suppliers, but no fishing trainers. How unfair is that?

Oh, him! Moonfire and Root, good combo. Sounds like you'll be interested in getting the Restoration DOT (Damage Over Time aka continuing damage) from the talent tree. I did, despite being otherwise a Balance Druid, and it's made root-rot actually quite feasible -- if a bit mana-intensive.

Didn't Gnarlroot or whatever have a buddy to mess with, too?

Another thing Root is really, really good at, I'm finding, is luring out 'buddies' one at a time, since it doesn't seem to turn anyone violent except the victim, if you stay at the far edge of its range. Whack the minion, get it to chase you, take it out, come back for the boss. It helps that the fight takes place largely out in the open...Garlroot's cave is pretty shallow.

So root the buddy, and the boss won't aggro? And then when root wears off, it comes out?

This is a tactic I have not tried yet...

Well, harder to tell if it works for me, now, since Marie's all 60 and stuff, but I'm sure I could find something.
