Still learning after all these years...

Recently discovered I've had a wrong assumption for about the last 10
years lol, nice to see there's still things to learn even after so
long playing. 

I learned early on that bandaging yourself gets interrupted if you
take damage - now I'd always assumed that meant that if bandaging
something other than yourself, it'd interrupt if the recipient of the
bandage took damage. Of course, on things like hearthstone cast,
looting quest items and the like the interrupt is if the caster takes
damage, but for some reason I never thought of it that way with
bandaging - I just learned now that yes, it does work the same way,
and I can bandage someone/something taking damage just fine as long as
I don't take dmg myself. Doh!

This was learned after several weeks of playing an ironman warlock who
can't heal pets now (health funnel isn't there if you have no spec),
and didn't realise I could just bandage my voidwalker midfight...
suddenly named mobs got a whole lot easier when it finally dawned on
me ;-)

And the draenor bandages only need skill 1
there is something that lets you instant respawn warlock pets, some spec 
somewhere.

My warrior loves shadow berries
Not astoundingly great but good for those times as melee you just can't 
quite get something down solo and can't get help, or just for running away.

very easy to farm, trap trap trap, loot shadowberries, trap trap trap, 
loot etc

Requires Destruction spec.  I use it a lot when fighting +1M hp mobs at 
the kil'jaeden plateau.  Its almost a part of my rotation there as I 
simply expect the void tank dies when pulling 2-3 of those mobs. ;)
I seriuously love that void tank!  And I really really really hope 
Blizzard never never never nerfs that pet!

Yep, but as ironman requires playing with no spec, I can't get that
one :-)

Those look useful, won't be allowed on my ironman but I may pick some
up for regular characters :-)
