These days the game is so easy, and yet every action is criticised, insults fly at the drop of a hat, and this game (yes a game, something we do to enjoy ourselves) is full of whiny people bitching at others for not doing things exactly the way they think they should.
No one needs to be using Recount in a heroic, ffs.

It does break CC, but I havent’ seen anyone using that yet.

“Lord, oh, Lord I hate this axe…

If you are solo’ing feel free to use it, but please do NOT use it in instances!

1) The damn proc will break any crowd control near you….

2) Don’t use this thing unless you have a really good tank or a lot of armor. … I just ran ZF with a paladin who used this and I wanted to kill her because when the thing proc’d then she couldn’t heal herself and when everything started pounding on her and her life dropped like a rock I had to burn all my mana keeping her alive.

Truly, please don’t use this in instances. =)”

been yelled at for being low DPS. I’ve been yelled at ONCE for getting too much aggro. Waiting for the tank a bit too long is my thing though.

I usually top the DPS meters in my LFG PuGs, If there’s a well geared tank, he/she may have better damage for the occasional fight, but that’s kinda rare, and that’s with me waiting for a solid 5 seconds to let the tank get aggro.

I occasionally catch crap for it (“why you standing there?”), but I’m sick to death of “being taught a lesson” by some healers when I get aggro or take damage. (Sorry, but as a Retpal, standing toe-to-toe is required, and I will occasionally get a little aggro and take *some* damage. It doesn’t mean I’m not paying attention, it probably means the tank changed targets)

I guess playing a Retpal has one advantage: I never see another one in my random PuGs. I get the occasional Tankadin, almost never get a Healadin, but I’ve NEVER had another Ret.

I guess that’s a good thing lol.
