Tried heroic Morchock tonight on my shaman, but we only had 3 healers so I attempted to one heal my side. I was able to do this just fine, throwing mana tide, then a conc pot, then mana pot during the black stuff.

Buuuuut Sonny was having internet issues and died in the sludge twice when he was DC’d, we wiped at least 4x then gave up. We brought in someones mage who was doing a whopping 13k on Yor’sahj. Dps was extremely low across the boards with most fights taking anywhere from 1-2 minutes longer than usual.

Anyway, we got 7/8 and by then it was 11 and I said I was tired and wanted to go. Usually we stop at 11, at least.. I thought so. But instead they replaced me to continue on killing Deathwing. This combined with killing him last week without me in a ninja raid (or the week before I forget), is really pissing me off.

Did Heroic Morchok last night with A9N, and also got Heroic Zon’ozz down in like 2 attempts, and Heroic Ultraxion down in a few attempts. I got heroic Robes of the Dying Light and Nilvana let me have Heroic Seal of the Seven Signs. I replaced Foul Gift of the Demon lord with that.

We finished up to the boat but by then it was late and we stopped. This time we pugged a mage (Novagosa) who I mean, gosh. I just see light blue these days and I get pissed off. Guy was either not in vent or not listening, kept saying Swan was too quiet when I never have an issue hearing him (hint, try turning up your settings before complaining gosh), kept asking for repeats of what was said in vent, had to go afk a lot, etc. Granted he told us he was feeding his sick mother but, hi there, maybe just don’t raid, then? If we are considering completing a boss or a lot of trash with your ass afk, I get pissed.

The dps for Zon’ozz was anywhere from 55k (Soanso) down to 33k (the mage) and 24k (the tank). Ultraxion went from 38k (Soanso) to 31k (mage). I only note this, besides it being just sick as usual, because on normal Ultraxion Relentless only has 3 people pulling over 30k and we really need all dps to hit that to think about doing it on heroic.

We did FL the other day on my priest, and tried some heroics. We got heroic Shannox down, tried Rhyo but the adds were completely out of control so did that on normal, tried Baleroc on heroic but there was much confusion on the shards, and the two times Bella got the link, he did not move at all so whoever else had it had to run to him. Besides managing mp terribly, he has poor raid awareness and spell selection is bad.

We tried heroic Staghelm and ended up getting that down, but at one point I died, I think from someone blowing up their seed in raid, and he cost us a kill by not keeping Cinor up. I targeted Cinor to see what heals were going out and focus’d Bella, and saw he took no heals at all for a good 15 seconds, then Bella started prayer of healing, which would be useless since the tank was center and everyone else was spread. If we want to be semi serious about raiding, we need to bump people that can’t appropriately react to fights. As it was on the kill we did get, both healers got themselves killed and I solo healed the last 15% of the kill.

Did heroic Morchock last night, the rest on normal. We only have 3 people above 30k dps on Ultraxion, so a heroic kill there is not likely to happen. Plus people can’t always click on fading light on normal, it’s much harder on heroic and you must click FAST. There’s maybe only 2 things I want for my shaman at this point, but nothing dropped I could use the whole run. Getting tired of this tier of raiding already.

Ran a full clear with 2 heroics with A9N again, had a few screw ups on skittles because of some dps mess ups and I think once because the druid healer blew us all up. But, it’s so relaxing to not wipe 1000x on the boat, or spine, or DW. I picked up the normal version of Maw of the Dragonlord and Visage of the Destroyer. Spine was a little troublesome since many people were getting hit by the slam on the second platform, but really it was markedly easier than some of my shamans raids lately. Oh and Nilv had to basically solo heal Zon when I DC’d halfway through it.

Nilvana put out 27k hps on Madness and I did 25k. And per usual dps was sick at 47k at the top from Soinso to 40k from Eng. Swan was at 25k and the dual boxed rogue even managed to put out nearly 25k. I wish I could see this all the time.
