Hello!

Myself (Johnny) and my pal Will are creating videos with the intention of showing newcomers how to tank/heal instances. I'll be starting off with Warrior tanking, and Will Priest healing. We have some videos up already so please check them out and offer feedback and such :)

Cheers! Would you in any case be interested in another broadcaster? :)
Cause I really see potential in this, and I'd enjoy to be a part of it!

You guys should launch a website, so that you also can write articles about it! I would also like to help out on this project!

I, myself, am just waiting for these lovely gentlemen to announce a verdict to my aid.
For all I know, Will is slightly against it, since the project is rather new (refering to the recruiting boradcasters), but I hope I'm the lucky one, whom gets it this time.


Kudos, Johnny and Will!

EDIT!:

This is the answer I got, so I can only hope the best for them;
Hey bud!

I've spoke to Will and I hope you don't mind but we're thinking of keeping it small for the time being while we get stuck in and settled.

Thanks ever so much for the kind words, I wish you success too!

All the best,
Johnny

I myself am currently in the process of making articles and videos on newcomers to WoW, and I can't pretend it's an easy thing to do, so I wish you the best of luck Grathol :-)


Oooo post them when you've finished with them bud, I wouldn't mind having a look :D

Hehe, I'm not sure if I could manage a website! Never done so before. No harm in thinking big though right? ^_^

Appreciate it bud, maybe we could do something in the future :)

Also, for any blue that reads this: Thanks for putting us on the community news! Big <3s to you!

Hmm...
Now, that you say it... Maybe skype up and make a 3-player view? :P
Like...
A camera-perspective from the Tank, the Healer and the DPS, while we talk x3
Would be epic like that. And sure wouldn't get any harder to do, if we all record it.
Just a suggestion, in case it'd ever become anything.

If you get what I mean, great, cause I don't... o_o

You could also do a guide to the aim of certain bg's. Just because some people might not know the tactics and such.

As to skyping I'd say it would be a lot of effort to mesh three seperate videos together, so that they were in sync, with the sound too.

Maybe just do it from one PoV and alternate if you were to do it?

Really like the idea, gonna pass it around my friends on wow.

Well, for all I know, then Fraps (the Full version) records the video and the sound at it's instant. I've only once heard the sound be ahead, cause of major lag in the video part.

But yea, maybe only from 1 PoV, and then move on to the next. Who knows? It's still a good idea to me :)

I get yas. We'll give you a bell in the future if we can work something out.

I don't have that much bg experience other than just playing casually so I'm not sure if I'd be best suited to offer my advice on them :)

Thanks! Spreading the word is much appreciated while get ourselves sorted <3

Well, just a quicky. This morning I recorded myself talking about the very basics of WSG (Warsong Gulch), AB (Arathi Basin) and AV (Alterec Valley).
I was about to edit it together, when I -had- to go to school.

Änd good to know, that you actually got the idea, and would like to include me in your nearest future, if the nearest...
I'll be looking forward to it.

Kudos!

Awesome! I'm not sure we've got enough content yet to warrant a website just yet, but send me a PM via YouTube and we'll have a chat :D

Some nice videos! The tanking one was helpful, as I was trying out tanking for the first time ever today, and it was really tricky, so the video was really helpful! I'll look forward to more in future :)

Fantastic, glad they helped! Even a little :) I'm currently in exams/have a broken computer but as soon as they are over/is fixed I'll be uploading plenty more videos!

Will has uploaded another video - Ragefire Chasm! Not much to say about this dungeon from a healing perspective, so he gives a lot of good general advice. Enjoy :)
