Meanbaby

Ran a normal FL last night with a team Meanbaby was with.  They alread got Beth and Shannox so I came in on Rhyolith and I think it took 3 tries to get that.

I died a few times to things I never died to before, like the shards meltdown.

We got Baleroc no problem but we did nothing with heal assigments so I just stayed on the tank basically full time.  It was also the only time I had one of those shards hit me as well, standing in a spot I always stand in.

We tried Alysrazor, but she didn’t die at 11 minutes in soo yeah. That was a combination of the flying dps dying a lot, people dying to tornados, not picking up feathers, and for some reason the tank I was on was sprinting to beat the band the entire time.  I was literally casting on the run the ENTIRE TIME.  If I stopped for a second they went out of my range.  I’m not sure why we had markers and side assignments if the birds were going to be kited all over.

But, normals are kind of enjoyable, anyway.

Sage

This raid weekend, we did not have Holybo for some reason so we brought in a holy paladin.  We got down heroic Shannox and Rhyolith, but I had to make special efforts to  help on healing Con during Shannox, and put out 18k heals on Rhyo. I joked to Sealan, who was teasing me about being carried by Sage, that I ruled that fight.

We also got down regular Beth, and then switched over to trying heroic Chimaeron.

A holy pally, disc priest, and resto druid probably wasn’t the best comp for it, but the healing went poorly.  One attempt the paladin had no healing at all, others no healing went out until a good 10 seconds into the fight.  So we just called it. I did get the heroic Coalwalker Sandals that night though, which need a new category of OiS (only in slot) seeing that they are the ONLY heroic CLOTH boots in Firelands, period.  So whether you are any flavor priest, mage, warlock, you’ll want this.  So dumb. There are crafted non heroic boots for holy/disc with spirit and crafted ones with hit for everyone else but having 1 option other than paying for a craft or whatever is pretty lame. I raid for a reason and it’s not so I can buy gear with gold.

Saturday both Holybo and Raliden were missing, so I brought in Nilvana, and we brought in Kenthra, again.  I was a little surprised at that after the Rag problem with him some weeks back.  Anyway we did Baleroc and I had an amazing 42k heals, Nilv had 17k, and Sage had 7k.  3 healing that was such a relief.

We also tried heroic Staghelm, and one attempt got him down to 5% but I died to a jump and it went downhill fast after that.  But, I wasn’t surprised we didn’t get it.  An undergeared healer, who has never been in Firelands, was probably not going to happen, but it was a good try.  Also tried heroic Alysrazor and I think with the normal group we can get that.  The hunter died, A LOT as well. We did Stag on normal, but at Rag Kenthra DC’d and it was called when it looked like he was not coming back.  So we miss Rag this week again.

Heroic Majordomo

I had said earlier in the week that I could not make Saturdays raid, but I could get on at 7 for Fridays. We ended up clearing 7/7 with Shannox and Rhyo on heroic, and then crazy enough, ONE SHOTTED Staghelm on heroic. I recorded most of that fight but didn’t start it right away since I figured we’d have more than one attempt, but nope! Turns out Conquix recorded it though so we’ll combine videos.

Not a damn thing for clothies dropped though, not a one.

Meteors

Did heroic Shannox and Rhyolith again this weekend, and only I died on Rhyo at the end. Tried Heroic Alysrazor but had a tough time with the meteors. On saturday they did Alysrazor without me, and we tried heroic Staghelm, and once got him down to 10%, but the fight at that point was over 10 mins. The problem I was having was when healing the people on the spore things, with having them get out of my range avoiding the jumps which was just enough time for them to die, or with me needing to move and not healing at a critical time. The attempts were pretty good though.

Playing bad

Friday we did heroic Shannox again, then tried Heroic Rhyolith but didn’t get that. Did Alysrazor on normal and Beth. Saturday we got down heroic Rhyolith, but the paladin healer Holybo lost power or something and we brought in another druid. We messed up at Domo so much Paw had to revise what we were doing and we got it, though the healer that Turtles was playing repeatedly died.

Then we tried Ragnaros but wiped a few times then the time was over for the night. I personally made a lot of mistakes during Rag, getting hit by the trap once, not hitting levitate fast enough, getting hit by waves a few times. I don’t know, I was tired and just not responding very well. And as things always go, the druid healer that died a lot got a heroic chest piece.

 

Tried pugging Rag last night with Paw and a few guildies, ran it about 7 times but wiped and then at 11 I had to go. No real mistakes that I can remember though I did get hit by a wave once when I was standing too close to the top of the fire pattern thing.
