If anyone fancies fast grinds of Maraudon let me know :)
I'm up to about 140 unbuffed, still got chest head and feet that could have NR on them if anyone has suggestions?
for the chest and head. why not just get ironwine at it. will give you 60 NR. if I remember right.
Well, cos there's not a chance I can afford the chest right now, so was looking for a short term free option, and thot doesnt have an ironvine helm so i have not seen it :)
Hijacking Umbra's Thread with an link for all classes :D

If your not aiming to tank, warriors could consider the craftable NR Leather helm which gives 30/40 NR.
Dajo, that lsit you sent (at the bottom) is good but doesnt include shields and off-hand, i've edited my list for the darrowshire strongguard
http://www.thottbot.com/?i=20130
not sure about any other shields/offhands
If your around over the weekend umbra....guess we could go farm some items....ill bring the vodka!
:) TBH I have pretty much all of them, though I forgot I can craft a thorium helm and boots :) But definitely up for some 'Grinding With Guildies'
There is a NR shield that drops from the spider boss in Stratholme baron side.
This one with +15 NR http://www.thottbot.com/?i=17352
yeah, i had that, sold it at some point for inv space, only lost 5% res, for the darrowshire one, too many shields.
Also, grab some librams (DM ones) and get the +10 NR enchants for head and legs from the guy up the stairs in ZG.
Was only putting in things which are EASY and CHEAP/FREE Sinap :P
They are Umbra, Luthor got his for 10G for the Libram, I got mine for 20G each and feel ripped off :norty: Just add a pristine BD, some scholo/strat free drops and a coupel shards and you're good to go with the Arcanum - just hand the arcanum in to the ZG chap for the enchant. Akall very kindly agreed to act as a distraction to allow me to rush up the stairs and get the enchants yesterday morning, so now I've got the head and legs with the +10 NR enchant, the shoulders with the AD NR enchant, the cloak with the +15 NR enchant and I'm good to go. With the full NR set, a couple of rings and those enchants I sat at 314 NR buffed last night.
TL.
:narnar: 314 NR for a caster is overkill IMO :narnar:
at the rate melee was dieing i dont see why casters shouldnt have a decent NR as buffer to the healers, who have next to non.
Also, dps casters might want to just watch agro the first bit, so that they are fairly low on the shitlist come 30% cause then you need to bring it down asap.
Agree bastet. I had 229 NR yesterday at huhuran. And I see that as ok for a dps caster. If I am not right say so and I will get more NR and nerf more stats / dps.
I think you're right Deadly, 314 NR is overkill for a caster, but my approach has always been overkill for safety, then gradually reduce the NR until you find the comfortable level for the raid group. I did the same with FR in MC for Ragnaros and I will probably end up doing the same for Frost in due course at Naxx. I'd rather have the option to reduce my NR than be dead and wonder 'if'.
TL.
Since it only hits the closest 15 people, wouldnt it work to just deck those in full NR, keep ranged dps/healers in normal gear, and make sure they dont die :P By gimping other stats, healing may not be as good, so people die easier, or by gimping dps stats for ranged dps, the dps wont be enough to down her quickly enough after the 30% mark :P
Id say with that NR put TL infront!! :biggrin:

Yes that's the theory. But you need to remember these additional points:
- We are already trying to max out the NR for the closest 15 people.
- We have to assume that some people die anyway, so we need to max out more than 15 people.
- Prior to 30% level, Noxious Poison is still thrown out to hit any of the raid, it's a 3k DOT and silences - this will hit some healers.
- She goes down quickly enough anyway even when we're fully nerfed in NR gear.
- Damage casters have already shown they can pull aggro very easily in this fight, thus changing the 15 closest people and wiping the raid.
- Hunters need to be close to Huhu for their Aspect of the Wild to be in range for tanks and rogues.
- Healers need to be close enough to heal.
- A slight movement of Huhu and some of those next closest people will now be in 'the closest 15'
- We need to be able to bring her down in a controlled fashion not nuke her out of the sky.
All this leads ot saying yes focus NR on the top 15, but the rest of the raid should have NR too. I believe it is Righteous who have an application criteria of 200 NR for all new members? I'm reasonably certain that the 200 NR limit is there for a reason!
TL.
Nuke from the sky ftw xD But yeah... suppose, but a decent balance is needed for the people who will actually be doing the dps/healing. Closest lot = meat shields, grats rogues on being promoted to meat shield!
On the subject, I am willing to go master demo for the extra resistances with the felhunter if it is desired, would take me over 300 ish...
Hmph, back on track:
This post wasn't meant to be a full discussion of NR and such, just a helpful pointer on how to get the really easy stuff for those with little time or gold, just to help out. go to the 'huhuran tactics : updated' thread to get pedantic :P
So nice weather today.....*whistles*
