Just one of those days

Posted by Jess on April 14, 2008

Seeing as how I’ve only started this blog a few days ago, I’m not having any problem coming up with content to post. Although I’m working on a fall back just in case that should ever happen, I don’t think it will. Better safe then sorry and all that.

Group 2 went back into Kara last night, sadly we didn’t get as far as we would have liked too, but I’m still proud of us. :) Took Maiden like the crazy redheaded bitch she is. We wiped once, due to a healer sleeping on the job. [Do you see what I did there!? *snicker*] Although we did get her down to 30%. The second time we went in, and WTFPWND her face in! It was very nice, we even got to shard an epic, which shouldn’t make me happy but it does because it means that nobody needed them. :D

Maiden:
Bracers of Justice picked up by nobody as they were sharded
Gloves of Quickening picked up by Orvil

After we downed Maiden we went back up for our shot at Aran. We had already downed Curator so there was no trash or anything for us to kill up until the library area. We did a couple pulls, downed some of the arcane protector guys and suddenly ET decided to have a heart attack. [Although some people think the chipmunk/hamster died.] It was bad, everyones latency went up to the 950s and we were dying and D/Cing all over the place. It was not a pretty sight.

Finally got our latency issues cleared up and were able to move up to Aran. No problems clearing the trash. Even had an epic drop Gripts of Deftness which I picked up for a feral set, eventually I’m going to be have a pretty nice set. As long as I keep getting guidance on it, since I’ve been a tree since I started.

We tried Aran but wiped twice, both times we got him down to 30%. [30 must have been our lucky number last night.] Although the fact that we got him down so far both times with what I was told was an unconventional group, is what makes me super proud! We had 2 hunters, 2 tank warriors, 2 resto druids, 1 holy priest, 1 mage and 1 shaman.

Decided to call it then, we’re not going to go back in tonight, instead we’re going to try MrT with the guild & then next week we’re going to only run 1 group since we had so much trouble this week. Hopefully in a few weeks we’ll be able to run 2 again, but for right now running 1 is what’s best for the guild.

Speaking of what’s best for the guild, we had a guildy leave because he was being deployed to Iraq. Everyone wished him well and told him to be safe. A few days later one of his RL friends joined the guild and accidentally spilled the beans that he was in fact at home, and hadn’t been deployed. The only reason he said that was because none of his RL friends were playing WoW anymore. That’s just shady. It was bad enough that a lot of our members were outraged, and it resulted in him getting kicked.

Also speaking of what’s best for the guild, I need to step up my game as a healer.

full raid buff

These are my stats in full raid buff. There’s a lot I need to work on so I’m working right now on a to do list for gear and such. I’m not sure where I’m going to get it yet, because I haven’t gotten that far into my research, but for a casual at least I’ve got my plans.

GEAR TO DO</big>

  • Head enchant from HH [which means I'll have to get my rep up with HH - which means more SH runs]
  • New Chest/Shoulders/Off Hand [Maybe get the OH from Moroes] [OH dropped on 4/15]
  • Healing Enchant on Gloves & Mace [Could upgrade mace to PvP mace with a little bit of work]
