Siegecrafter Blackfuse Conveyor Belt Work
[One of my guildmates swears in this video.]
TIPS: If you're assigned to the assembly line your overall damage will be low, but your assembly line damage better be good. Save DPS CDs for it. You'll end up being up there every other one. If you're having trouble, then you're either not blowing CDs and/or pots or you should have someone come up with you so you finish twice as quick. When on the assembly line hunters can DPS just as well as melee. If you jump then you briefly lose the force pushing you down the line. You can jump all the way back to the start if you want. Jumping into the Mario tube (or walking into the other one) to get off the conveyor belt isn't hard, but disengaging over to the main platform will save you time.

Our Second Thok Kill
A question of burst came up on Twitter about BM burst and how it drops like a rock afterward. I'm thinking it's quite fine.

Awesomesauce Tanking
Durendil did it two days ago. He, a hunter, got the Gold Tanking achievement in the proving grounds. What's awesome about this is the proving grounds make it so you can not overgear the content. Previously all the pet-tanking and "extreme soloing" we've done, we've done it while having killer gear -- at the minimum a tier above the content being solo'd.
I took a stab at it and realized I needed a fully new bar with full new macros keyed-off of specific pet tanking talents and glyphs. Threat from chain-MDs isn't quite enough. Not having a taunt, you have to pick up the adds immediately. There's only one thing that he did that I was thinking of doing different. I was going to use the Distracting Shot glyph. But I guess that might take away from other more important glyphs.
I've been checking the lists for a week or so. Warlocks can do it. They have a decent tank and can fear bomb +DoT. Durendil is the first hunter.
Congrats! Here's a link to the video.
