2 Things: LF Rogue and More Horde Read Matticus than Alliance
July 7, 2008 by Matticus
Filed under All Stories
A few weeks ago, Wyn published a poll asking to whom you owed your allegiance to in WoW. I know most of you play alts on both sides, but I figured most players would favor one over the other.
To my astonishment, the readers of World of Matticus seem to be fairly split in terms of which faction. I’m an Alliance Priest. What’s with the Horde readers outnumbering the Alliance? Trying to figure out all of our Alliance secrets, are we? Well, you’ll never discover the fact that Theramore is to be a future staging ground we grind Orgrimmar to a pulp!
Second item of interest, although I doubt how useful it would be here since I’m assuming most of you are Priests, healers, or are already in established Guilds.
My raiding Guild is looking for a Rogue!
I won’t repost the ad or anything like that here again. But we lost one of our Rogues a few weeks ago and we’re running a backup at the moment. He’s not the most consistent player in terms of attendance and such. So if you feel that you’re up for the challenge, you can definitely compete for a full time spot. Although they say we don’t need a Rogue, we need a Rogue.
Requirements
- Must be able to smash 2 keys repeatedly
- Must be able to survive as long as possible
- Must be able to out DPS a Protection Paladin
- Must not be some kind of non-raid performance spec
- Must be able to put up with crap Guildies throw your way about lack of DPS because they want you to DPS more
- Must be able to stand with the melee group
- Must know when to run out of whirlwinds
- Must be able to endure 30 minute boss briefings
BONUS POINTS: Out DPSing Blori (Resident fury warrior) is a guaranteed invite. To tip the scales, you will be given an Enhancement Shaman and your own personal healer.

I'm Matticus and I play a Dwarf Priest. My home is in Carnage, a raiding Guild. Every week, I log 11 hours raiding on Ner'Zuhl.
Wynthea is the Troll Priest with the best Mohawk on Nazjatar. Currently, I raid 5 nights a week, and PvP occasionally. I started working toward end-game in May 2007, and my guild is currently working through Sunwell. I've tried playing other classes, but Priests are my passion; I've found our racial spells an endless source of fun and frustration. I am extremely fond of Dwarves.... especially with Ketchup. 
My name is Sydera and I like to heal things--think Florence Nightingale with foliage. I play a night elf druid on Vek'nilash-US, and I raid 12 hours a week. As a guild officer for Collateral Damage, I coordinate healing and recruit new raiders. I started playing WoW in Fall 2005, and it was love at first click. Before I discovered the joys of Broccoli-stalk healing, I raided as a holy paladin, and I now have alts in all healing classes. I have to say, though, bark beats poofy dresses and heavy plate in my book.
Any WWS available on Blori? Since then I can decide wether I should send rogues your way

Dave, make up your mind on what you want to raid as, IMO. FOR THE HORDE!
Hordie here, but I have to admit most of the better WoW bloggers tend to be Alliance. So we read you because you are better bloggers, not just to steal your secrets
Making horde part blue and the alliance part red: crazy or confusing?
Actually, it’s more like lack of skill in using Keynote :(.
Thrall is, in fact, my homeboy.
Dirty TrollsActually, what I meant to say was that I adore Trolls, and all things troll-related. ESPECIALLY Wynthea. Her mohawk is just so attractive!
Dirty indeedI would also like to clarify my previous statement, and to concur with Doc’s insightful comment. I adore Trolls. I frequently feed my Troll-buddies baby Gnomes dipped in Ketchup. Because that is what Trolls like to eat, more than anything!
mm-hmm. You’re just jealous ‘cuz we have the best hair in game.
Truth.
Now THAT is dirty lol
Ahh well I wish I was a dwarf or something. Too bad I am horde, would have loved to raid with you guys.
Dankhs last blog post..Get excitied! N78 is here!
Ah the myth of the 2 button rogue
a well played rogue uses all available options to maximize his damage an usual rotation would be.
1 garrote (if feral tank wait for mangle)
2 Slice & dice (must keep up at all times)
3 Berserk if available
4 Blade furry if available
5 Adrenaline rush if available
6 Trinket #1 or #2 if available
7 thistle tea or flamecap if out of cooldown
8 Sinister strike
9 Feint if very close to threat of tank
10 Vanish if still dangerously close to threat of tank
You forgot rupture! Also tell maeve not to hate me so much and you wouldn’t be looking for a rogue!
