Lightning Rod

We had our alt raid last night and this time brought a guildies alt shaman who was doing 5-10k heals on the first 4 bosses. They claimed it was because of their gear, but from spell usage it looked like they just didn’t know how to play a shaman. Then we had our problem priest, and a druid from RS. It went pretty sloppy even with the nerf, and we failed on boat. I got Lightning Rod from Hagara though so I was happy.

I think people forget that even with nerfs, the mechanics of the fight are the SAME. They didn’t nerf them to LFR faceroll status.

No one listens to me when I say the healers are bad

We actually had a group for DS 10 tonight, and got down Morchock, only died over and over and over (at least 5x) on Zon’ozz because all three healers, took turns trying to keep the tank up, and couldn’t. Bella couldn’t do it, the shaman, or the druid. I said we’re not making progress and left. I was pushing 30k+ dps though. I mean, when I wasn’t trying to avoid boss aggro after the tank kept dropping.

Mages, always the mages.

Worked on hitting 85 tonight on my paladin and omfg why is it again, I run into another idiot mage. I don’t know what drew my attention to the dps charts but I noticed they were not casting fireball, scorch, or really anything that required a cast time at all. I set my focus to them and again, never saw them casting ANYTHING that wasn’t instant, other than occasionally a hard casted pyroblast.

I told them they were doing it wrong and they said some nonsense about how FFB was better than fireball but they only cast it 22 times the entire dungeon. Their top 3 damage skills were living bomb (ok fine), fireblast, and flame orb. They told me they knew what they were doing and I basically harassed them the rest of the run for being bad and before I left commented that “do your next party a favor and l2p”. I was so mad I was ready to leave that party mid way just because the mage was stupid. Mages drive me INSANE.

A few dungeons later I ran into them again and after the first pack of trash, said I wasn’t healing this bad mage again and left.

Mages are Douchbags

I don’t know why mages are typically the douchiest players I’ve ever met. Ran a new dungeon with Essaac (druid, I’m not talking about him it was a pug mage) today who just turned 85 and is naturally doing shitty dps and needing on all the healing gear besides that. I don’t mind that but I personally would kick up a fit if I also needed something a damn druid was needing on when they aren’t in the spec they need it on. For the record even if no one else in the group needs what I want I’ll say “ok if I need for OS?” or something. But, that’s me. Since I was healing and didn’t need gear, it wasn’t an issue.

Anyway we got End Time and everyone was doing less than 15k dps so all the fights took twice as long as normal. That wasn’t a real big deal until we were on the last boss and I recommended hitting the hourglass every 20% because the dps is “pretty low”. The mage apparently took offense and started with the usual mage insults like “I could outheal you on my pally” and for his poor dps “I’m pvp fire spec” and something about how I don’t know how to pvp, so I mentioned my priest and he kept going on about how I was so “fail bad” and this and that. I would have let him die if he was taking any damage. I had to put out 20k hps because that fight went so long and people were undergeared or whatever. He mentioned his paladin so I told him every time I dispelled wings or bubble I’d “think of him” but he said that made no sense because he is of course, a moron (hint, you said you had a pally, stupid) Oh well.

Cunning of the Cruel

Ran the first 4 bosses of LFR the other day, and watched Cunning of the Cruel go to a BALANCE druid who was doing FERAL dps, at around 6k dps. They then went to actually using balance during the second boss, and brought their DPS up to around 10k.

On the third boss I won a new ring, which was technically a side grade (which I ended up equipping) and that druid asked if they could have it because my gear was better. Stifling an urge to tell them to fuck off I said sure I’ll trade for that trinket. Needless to say they declined. Someone from Ragnaros, that druid was. Totally sick of seeing that server, and Goldrinn in my queues.
