While we appreciate all the ‘3 things you love about your class’, there were not nearly enough ninjas involved. In fact, ninjas were only mentioned three times. Maybe four.

Also, there was no gold.

We know we said you had a choice, but come on. It was really about the gold.

We are a forgiving village, though, with a long and illustrious history of no one ever hearing about us. Can’t last forever, so we’re going to try this thing where we talk about the priest class and you listen to us and do what we tell you.

Miss Space Goat does it all the time, so it can’t be too hard.

FIRST. A macro. Everyone loves macros, and it makes you look really smart when you tell other people how to do a macro. Macros are good for two things: accomplishing more than one thing at a time, and spamming battlegrounds chat. YES THAT IS US. WE DID THAT. And we put you on ignore when you complained. You should have taken RH first like we told you!!

I’m unashamedly a Beastmastery hunter, and some of the concepts and macros here probably won’t apply to other types of hunters. Doesn’t mean you can’t read it, just means I will fling french-accented insults at any who feel the need to complain about how suchandso macro or theorycraft doesn’t apply to hunters without a kittybomb (Bestial Wrath) or Serpent’s Swiftness.

I already know. *winks*

Onward!

Okay, okay. I promised an entry on Assisting, so here it is.

What is Assisting?
If you are assisting, then you are not choosing your own mob.

By now you know me well enough to know I’d never leave an entry that short, so of course I’m going to complicate things.

If you aren’t choosing your own mob, how are you getting the mob? The answer is the key to assisting - the Main Assist.

Today, my gentle snowflakes*, we will discuss the priest ability Shackle Undead.

Shackle Undead (or just “shackle”, as most people call it) is a spell learned from the priest trainer at level 20.

The tooltip says :

Shackles the target undead enemy for up to 40 sec. The shackled unit is unable to move, attack or cast spells. Any damage caused will release the target. Only one target can be shackled at a time.

Let’s dissect the tooltip a bit.
