Spurious Sarcophagus

So, couple of things.  Dropped 30k to get the sandstone drake

Sealan still has a pet turtle named Ocyla

Ran DS the other day with Relentless, and I think I’m going to take the priest to the group I ran with Iocane on my shaman on Wednesday.  More on that later.  We did heroic Morchok and I solo healed my side again, but Jynx kept bringing him nearly on top of the crystals, and so much extra damage was going out I had to hit divine hymn for the first time EVER on this fight.

We tried heroic Zon’ozz but every attempt died at the same exact spot.  There were adds still up when the black phase ended, everyone was running willy nilly all over the place, etc.  Half of the people in group do not have mics either so cannot call out when they run out for the debuff and I have to watch for them to do it instead.  It’s inconvenient.

I think some people were upset we weren’t trying to progress on it, but progression is not wiping over and over on the SAME spot multiple attempts and tries, with no apparently ‘progression’ being made.

We did heroic Yorsahj and it went REALLY well, much MUCH better than the week prior.  I did lose Cinor once again but, I used up my 4 big heals and with purple nothing else I could do.   We did heroic Ultraxion but that took a few attempts when the pug hunter died repeatedly.  I picked up new bracers with a gem slot and replaced my VP ones.

And this, is just funny

they were running around/jumping  like that.  I’d pay real money to see like 20 of those running around Arathi Basin or something.

Bounties

Jul11

So Sealan told me the other day that Dirtydk renamed to Sanitary and DKmohawk (Frostrated/Restosham) is now Juntoko.

I duo’d the old icc 5 mans with Sealan the other day too, I miss those.  People say that it’s “faceroll” but they have to remember the severe upgrade from wrath gear to just quest cata greens, much less raid gear.

Been running into Divinefaith and Kmasmdgtfo (his cousin he says) in WG lately too.  Oh and I have Aitan/Fratricide on real id now.  The game really needs a note screen to post how you came to have someone on realid.  I know it’s supposed to only be for “real people you see IRL all the time” but let’s be serious.  I don’t know THAT many people IRL that play and I often want to talk to people on the opposite faction or across their many many alts.  Speaking of which I’ve gotten Peejay on my realid for like the 400005th time.

This was  a funny raid chat in TB too, they were saying something about horde not putting up a good fight which started with the line about Fratricide (him being good I’m assuming) then I had to laugh about the bounty on Ladiesman.

I had told him some weeks back, that I’d put a giant bounty for him, but he said then we couldn’t stand around together flagged in TB and make the alliance stop to stare, then run off without doing anything.  Big babies, I’d heal them if they started a fight.  Oh well.

Guild Premades that aren’t Mine

Jul6

I really dislike phasing into a dungeon that is a pre made guild group looking to do achievements, a mount run, etc. I got into a ZG today and they said “we’re only here for the mount”. I wasn’t aware that the panther boss had a mount, the chance is so so low I forgot. Anyway after they killed her and it did not drop, they all left. I guess they warned me, but why don’t people bring a full group when doing events like that? I wasn’t going to NOT roll if the panther dropped, and I’m pretty sure you can’t kick someone right after battle or during a loot roll. And telling me “we’re here for the mount” doesn’t force me to agree with any “loot rules”. At least, I don’t think so.

Had a terrible end boss Jin’do earlier where basically the dps, despite repeatedly being told what to do by the tank and I, died to Shadows of Hakaar over and over, the dps died and refused to rez and run back in, no one stood on the chains, etc. After about the 5th wipe I just left. I was pretty snotty that run too I half expected to get kicked.

Did a Stonecore where the group was all dead on the dragon boss, we did fine until the tank pulled a mess and we died. I got “wake up healer” and one dps left, then everyone left. Ugh.

Facepalm

Jul6

We raided last night, but Scuba did not show up, and that new paladin, Trance, appears to have server transferred. Nytok came again to heal, which was just lovely, but for some confusing reason we brought a guild shaman named Smoltinator. We did not need to three heal anything. The shaman was missing 7 enchants, and had a rather confusing array of gems, some int+spirit, some pure crit, some int+crit, some int+haste.

We tried heroic Zon’ozz but that went poorly for many reasons, one of which was the new shaman dispelling before people were out and getting others killed. We tried it on normal and they apparently decided to not dispel AT ALL (I had 100% dispels) with our good druid going dps (yes dps) and it brought me to my knees in mana even with shadowfiend and using the Heart of Unliving trinket. I had 27k hps plus 100% dispels, and for the first time in ages had to pop Divine Hymn on NORMAL Zon’ozz.

We tried heroic Yor’sahj but that went even worse. Even though we had 3 healers I was assigned to heal the tank, Cinor, plus myself and 2 dps. The mana ball wasn’t being handled properly so I lost Cinor more than once simply being out of mana, and once or twice when he disconnected. Lila also disconnected at least once, and we ended up doing that on normal. I got Insignia of the Corrupted Mind which no one wanted. I may go shadow again in MoP while questing or something.

We did Ultraxion on normal and the new shaman died twice, and then Rayzo and Jynx had to go before boat, so once again not even a full clear. I think I’m done raiding.

Bored without a Rogue

Jul3

Haven’t seen Ladiesman in… oh, 3 weeks now? I can’t lose another rogue!

Mostly did bgs tonight with Janusz, some with Wrathofgod, Bubledin, Nilvana, etc. It’s amazing how emo people get though. One guy wouldn’t stfu about his raid marker, another left when the queue wasn’t instant (it never is any more) and another got kicked when they wouldn’t shut up about getting assist. Really something else.

Anyway, I’m bored in TB without my rogue, really am.
