Netherhood Welcome Wagon – Raid Trauma

Hello Everyone, I’d like for you to join me in welcoming Rax of Raid Trauma!

Rax has been an MMO player for twelve years, starting in Everquest and working his way through varying MMOs up until WoW. His original character in WoW was a resto druid, who raided MC through Naxx in Vanilla. He took a bit of a break during TBC, but returned with the call of Wrath of the Lich King – this time raiding as a Fury warrior. As Cataclysm approached, he realized that he missed the healing side of things and picked up his Holy Priest to explore content.

Rax started blogging towards the end of WotLK while he was still playing his warrior, but wanted to make a fresh start with his shift in playstyle, and thus Raid Trauma came to be. Rax hopes to look at the struggles and triumps experienced by raiding guilds, as well as provide the occasional tidbit about priest healing!

Rax explores a variety of topics, from a look at guild drama to offering his thoughts on wiping and progression. You will also find him exploring some very sensitive topics, such as dealing with the it’s just a game mentality the best ways to improve raider performance. While you are there, you may want to explore his Seven Deadly Sins of raid leading series.

Rax offers some wonderful insight into the life of a raider and those herding the team! I know that I certainly can’t wait to see what other tips and tricks he may have to offer! Welcome to the Blogosphere, Rax!

 

Every Tuesday, Beruthiel from Falling Leaves and Wings is bringing you the Welcome Wagon, introducing new bloggers and great reads. If you know of a new blog to the scene or wish to get your name out there, please send an email to fallingleaves51@gmail.com, with the subject line “Welcome Wagon.” She’ll do her best to highlight as many as possible!

Shared Topic: Views on Your Class’ Gear

So the one week where I’m totally on top of things, is the week where no one reported back to the Shared Topic thread. Yet, due to the timing of the thread, a lot of bloggers participated without even knowing. So I’m going to do something a little unconventional: I’m going to go through my blog list and draw out the recent posts that fit in with the Topic for your reading pleasure. That’s right: your reading pleasure is always on my mind.

So what is this brilliant Topic that had everyone writing without realizing that it was a Shared Topic?

Gear sets.

It was suggested by Gavendo of Rapid Fire and just happen to coincide with the Tier 12 release.

What do you think of the current or past gear available to your class and specifically the gear only available to your class (such as tier sets). Does it look fitting? Does it look sexy or down-right embarrassing?

For the purpose of this post, let’s include “how do you like your set bonuses?” into the topic.

So to find out more about your class sets, check out:

If your post on class gear sets (doesn’t have to be Tier 12 specific, as long as it’s about class gear sets and it’s recent) wasn’t mentioned here, leave a comment so that I can update my blog reader!

If you’re sad because you missed this week’s Topic, don’t worry! You can do next weeks! It’s even along the same lines: Class Theories. Either speculate about what the future could hold, or blog about your thoughts concerning what we know so far of Patch 4.2. Be sure to link back to the thread at Blog Azeroth for some TNB link love next Sunday.

And we’re once again on the hunt for new Topics. Is there something you’d like to see your fellow bloggers discuss? Let us know in the Shared Topics forum at Blog Azeroth.
