Loot Fussing

Did rbgs with the guild the other night on Friday, and we got one win when the other team didn’t show up at all, but other than that we didn’t win any. I know it’s “lose to cap but try anyway” but we have way too many undergeared or non pvpers to expect wins. A couple of times we should have won but one or two people made vital mistakes that cost it.

Still I picked up pvp bracers and neck for my priest and saving for a weapon on my druid.

We got up to Murumu on Wed and I got 522 bracers that weren’t upgrades. We decided to start doing loot as loot council after I fussed on the guild forums about the way loot was being handled. Someone winning tons of gear even if they are the only ones that can use it (a spirit sword for instance, healing plate) should not then also be able to roll and WIN shared pieces or offspec.

Megaera Kill

I was going through the guild list today and noticed Lladin was in this guild.  I kind of laughed a little remembering how annoying he was in Bloodbathed and Beyond.  He hasn’t been on for a year though. Hotbrass went to another server and I wanted to kick all his alts out but Iocane said they leave people in unless there is a reason to kick them.  Leaving guild seems like a good enough reason to me.  Plus logging on just to tell us how much better his other team was and to ask for stuff bugged me.  Especially when I knew he was going to leave early on.

Anyway we got down Megaera last night but it was a nightmare to heal.  Used every cd, the second it was up and we were still all dead when it died.

686ocyla

A tier glove piece dropped today and I rolled a 16 and Dor rolled a 88. Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.  The BOEs were dropping from the sky but no healy cloth.  He let me have it but Angey was raising hell in raid chat about it as it was.  We all know Dor has gotten a shit ton of gear yet he rolls for everything anyway.  I think we need some form of loot list again.  I picked up the Soothing Talisman trinket, gave up on ever seeing on in LFR or 10m for now.

Serves you guys right

There seems to be an over abundance of guild groups that do 5 mans to carry some terrible dps guildie, but they don’t queue for a healer, so I end up in their group. It’s just annoying because it’s always some kind of issue like going afk right at the start, 1-2 people doing like 5k dps, and you can’t kick them and your only choice is to deal or leave. But I don’t mind leaving.

I got my DW kill on my shaman but nothing caster related dropped, again. I had asked why they didn’t get it that night I left and was told they were unable to 2 heal it.

Crafting is Hard

On Wed we wiped all night on the heads boss even with 4 healers. Dor died a bunch to the same mechanic at the end too, the ice beam things. Sigh.

And this hasn’t happened in a while but I remember why I never respond to requests in trade for crafting. This hunter wanted a tailor with the imbued netherweave bag pattern. Why you’d want that bag with frostweave, embersilk so easily available, I don’t know, but I figured maybe they just had all the mats and figured why not.

So I switched to my mage and linked the rec. Like clockwork they replied that the had the silk and some bolts. The bags take more than that. The imbued bolts require dust, the bags require planar stuff. They were like “so can you make a few?”. I said you actually have to HAVE the mats, to make the bags. They asked me to link the imbued bolt and I did, then asked how to make the planar essence. I said it was from DEing and after a while they stopped responding and I logged back to my druid.

Then I see “looking for someone who can make imbued netherweave bags I have all the mats”. I replied “2 mins ago you didn’t”. They stopped spamming trade after that. I don’t get how crafting is THAT HARD.

I met a new warrior, whose name escapes me at the moment, when I was being sassy in trade chat. We talked for a while and they said they don’t pvp and hate it, but needed wins in Kotmogu and Silvershard. We added as friends. It took maybe 5 tries to get Kotmogu, but we ran SSM for at least 2 hours and did not get one win. The best part was one of the battles everyone just chilled at the starting point, then the next one after it was clear we were going to lose, I started dancing after respawning. Some hunter said to report me afk and I said “go ahead I don’t give a shit we lose this 100% of the time anyway”. I got called a ‘dick’ and thrown out. Oh well.

Being a Loot Whore

Ran ToT last night but didn’t start until after 10 because Angie was late, but she told us about that, and Ran logged off prior to raid and never came back. We had to wait around for a pug. We cleared up to Tortos but the only thing that dropped I could roll on was a spirit ring, which Dor won and kept. Even though 1) he’s won at least 3-4 pieces already including a weapon and I’ve gotten 1 and 2) Alyis’s monk has 2 rings 489 and 476.
