			<description><![CDATA[Just some info on the quest line which leads to obtaining this amazing axe.
Shadow's Edge (http://db.mmo-champion.com/i/49888/shadows-edge/url)
Shadowmourne (http://db.mmo-champion.com/i/49623/shadowmourne/url)

The Sacred and the Corrupt (http://db.mmo-champion.com/q/24545/the-sacred-and-the-corrupt/url)
It is against my judgment that I present you this errand, <race>, as it will likely end in your undoing. Ignore my counsel and embark on the endeavor, and I shall provide you with the knowledge and resources to see it through.

You must return to Frostmourne Cavern and recover Light's Vengeance, Arthas' discarded hammer. Reforged with saronite and etched with the acidic blood of the Lich King's abominations, it will provide the foundation for our work.

Unholy Infusion (http://db.mmo-champion.com/q/24749/unholy-infusion/url)
Before your weapon can reach its full potential it must be endowed with its signature powers. First among them is unholiness. You must seek out and defeat the one called Professor Putricide, but his death is not your only goal. You must use his resources against him.

Find a way to absorb his mutated slime. Use the foul substance to infuse your weapon with the power of the unholy. Only when this has been done shall I reveal your next task.

Blood Infusion (http://db.mmo-champion.com/q/24756/blood-infusion/url)
Your weapon is now prepared to be endowed with the power of blood. You are to face Queen Lana'thel in battle and bathe the axe in her Blood Mirror power. When it has been fully infused, you must slay her unmercifully.

May her screams pierce the ears of the Lich King as he awaits his fate.

Frost Infusion (http://db.mmo-champion.com/q/24757/frost-infusion/url)
Shadow's Edge is prepared to receive its final infusion of power. Sindragosa, the enemy's own mount, must fall. But before she is brought down, you must sustain three of her frozen breath attacks without tasting death.

Without his dragon, nothing shall stand between you and the Lich King.

The Splintered Throne (http://db.mmo-champion.com/q/24548/the-splintered-throne/url)
The Lich King's throne once served as his prison. Kil'jaeden himself crafted the vessel of icy crystals from the twisting nether. Its sole purpose was to hold Ner'zhul's vengeful spirit. When Arthas struck the crystal with Frostmourne, he released Ner'zhul's soul, allowing it to merge with with his own. Splinters from that impact are now scattered throughout the citadel.

I shall require those shards, held only by the Lich King's most powerful servants, to seal the power contained in your blade.

A Feast of Souls (http://db.mmo-champion.com/q/24547/a-feast-of-souls/url)
Shadow's Edge is among the greatest weapons a <class> could hope to obtain. Is your lust for power sated, <race>? <You feel Mograine's penetrating gaze.>

I thought not. A final warning then... You now embark on the most treacherous leg of your quest. Bridle your aspirations, for if your aims are impure then your life, your very soul, is forfeit.

The weapon you hold is but an empty husk, a mere shadow of what it may become. Only the devouring of a thousand souls will unlock its true potential.
_____________________________________________________________

To kinda sum it up it seems

1. Kill Rotface/Festergut and get 25 Primordial Saronite (think 25 crusader orbs when toc came out)

2 and 3. Kill Professor Putricide and Lana'thel

4. Kill Sindragosa after getting hit with 3 frost attacks while wielding Shadow's Edge.

5. Obtain 60 Shadowfrost Fragments which are held from the Lich King's most elite servants (bosses obviously) (think Valynar Fragments).

6. Slay 1000 trash mobs or bosses combination in Icecrown Citadel.

---Quote---
Divine Storm
Our 51 pt talent, it is basically the same as a warrior's whirlwind ability except that DS heals for negligible amounts. Despite it seeming like an underwhelming talent it is critical to our DPS as it can and will trigger seals and RV. This skill is normalized to 3.3 weapon speed.

Basic Stats

The Test Sword(Faster and Higher DPS)

You see?Though the hammer‘s ILV is lower than that of the sword，the damage is obviously higher.

Do the Same test In TWOW(Patch 3.22)

the conclusion we reached that is "Divine storm is anomalistic to 3.3 weapon speed,tslow weapon can deal more damage."]]></description>

			<title>Macro help, please read before you flame me...</title>
			<link>http://elitistjerks.com/f23/t79777-macro_help_please_read_before_you_flame_me/new-post.html</link>
			<pubDate>Tue, 03 Nov 2009 02:42:46 GMT</pubDate>
			<description>So I wanted to start this off by saying yes, I know this macro doesn’t give out the best DPS, and that a macro can’t really do that.  However, I just want to add that it took me a long time to speak up about this, but to keep it simple I’m handicapped in a couple of ways, and clicking through a lot of buttons causes me a lot of problems…

In order to be able to move and react as best I can in raids I’ve reduced my casting sequence to a macro.  I then use the keyboard to move as I must and click this button when I’m holding still.  Simple.

What I’m basically asking here is if some of you might help me steamline this to make it better.  I know my Flame Shock lasts longer then the baseline because of my set bonus, but this is as long as I can make the second macro, and I want to avoid using add-ons to lengthen my macro size.

I would also like to point out that if none of you have any suggestions then maybe some of the other handicapped people like myself might be able to use it…  So far I’ve been pretty successful in hiding my disabilities from the people I raid or PUG with, but a few of my guildies are aware of my problems.  Basically, I figured that the elite folks over here at EJ could help me weed out any problems I might be having.

The macro tends to average about 3.6k dps on the raid boss dummy in IF, as CL doesn’t hit anything else there, and I’ve done those tests without anybody else around and it’s worked for me, but I’ve also seen lesser geared Shamans doing more damage then me, and I’m hoping some of you can help me improve my game, limited as it might be.

Macro 1: (The one I spam.)

#showtooltip
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/startattack
/petattack
/click MultiBarBottomLeftButton12
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

Macro 2: (Action bar 6, button 12, linked to from 1st macro.)

#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=6/target Flame Shock, Lava Burst, Chain Lightning, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Chain Lightning, Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Chain Lightning, Lightning Bolt
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

Also, and I’m sure it won’t happen, but please no flaming me for relying on macros, please.  Regardless of what some people think, there are players out there that rely heavily on them.  With the changes to /castrandom I can no longer set up a priority system using a series of macros, so this is the best I can do.

Thank you for your input.</description>
