Hordebreaker

Yesterday and last night, with the help of Iocane, Durieldb, and Nilvana on his monk, I banged out the Hordebreaker title.  I just couldn’t let it slip!  Also, I got to be a metal cat, yay!

Also Quaisoir left the guild, but didn’t tell anyone why.  I wanted to talk to him but haven’t had a chance.  The other priest, Calicipher, is very excited about raiding, but I think feels nervous about performance especially after we wrung him over a bit about not using atonement at all.  We’ll see how that goes.  I’m done raiding, at least for now.

When 5.4 hits, Ladiesman promised me an ‘ass-beating’.  And:

I told him BRING IT!

New Raid Priest

We got a new priest who will be healing in one of the missing healer spots, and he did very well. That was Quaisoir. Unfortunately I heard that he already told Silly that he’s getting a job that will prevent raiding. Now, this very well might be true, but the amount of times I’ve heard that when someone just got on a team seems a little suspect. I did not raid Tuesday but I did Wednesday and I could easily see how perhaps that was just an excuse. From what I heard Nilvana rebooted Tuesday night and was unable to get back on and the raid was called early. Last week there was probably the usual late coming shenanigans. Then when I raided on Wed, we had people dying repeatedly on what should be farm content, in fact, Dor died early on in the Iron Qon kill and had to remain dead basically the whole fight. He died on the council fight as well even through my shields and a pain supp. Not everyone wants to put up with this repeatedly. Fel died a few times as well.

Last night I did random bgs with Ladiesman on his alliance rogue, JazzyNYC. We got stomped the first two, won the next two if I remember right, and lost the last one. It’s all kinds of fun running with someone who can say “I’m going to get the EFC” and you see the EFC die shortly after. I ran the flag in the WSG for that three times, and would have gotten 3 caps but our team just couldn’t pressure the last EFC death. We basically ran that one ourselves.

Lei Shen Kill

Last Tuesday, we were down Shellblock, who was an hour late, and Angey who was even MORE late.  That meant the rest of us got to stand around that whole time and do nothing.  Oh and Onenightstab left the guild.

We did however, finally get Lei Shen, I think it took 4 pulls only because I wasn’t able to see any of his spell effects until I rebooted, so it was mostly my fault I think.  The fight was pretty easy.

Used a token, nothing.

Guild shot:

And out in Halaa, I killed THIS hunter while THIS priest was on me.  Sorry guy. At least twice.

Deadfrog is MEAN

The nasty priest I picked up some nasty tips from showed up in Halaa in the afternoon.  But before I get to that, the mage that I easily kill solo showed up a few times.  He also showed up with a hunter, and I killed him with both of them attacking, then turned and killed the hunter.  That must have been embarrassing.  The mage then came on his alliance paladin to tell me I was good:

He also insisted we duel where I handed him his ass without ever having to directly heal myself.  Note: don’t start EVERY duel popping barrier, and mirrors.  I’ll just SG and fear them all and dispel you like crazy.

Then later a hunter, who turns out to be Deadfrog, showed up with a boomkin and WRECKED the Halaa guards in record time.  They also killed me when I couldn’t keep up with all the silences.  Then an alliance warlock helped me out and we destroyed them.  But since it was the same guild, DogsofWar, I knew once they lost a fair fight they would come back with more and they did.  Warlock, boomy and the priest.  We fought so long I went oom and had to drop combat to drink.  But after getting dead a few times I swapped to horde and we talked, and I made a btag friend.

Iron Quon and Twin Consorts

Got asked to raid starting at Iron Qon last night and had a feeling it would go well so said oh well why not. We 2 shot him then one shot the Twin Consorts, if I remember right.

This is following on the heels of a post of Dorlondo asking if we can focus progression and etc etc.  Even though he’s been the source of some of our failures more than several handfuls of times.
