Fail Firelands

Tried to do Rag last night with Ralidens Family Crypt people but we failed at the first hammer pretty much for 2 hours. I wasn’t terribly concerned about lack of progress and basically spent the time talking with Ladiesman. BUT. We had three healers but I was having difficulties keeping my mp up, having to resort to flash heals quite a bit to hit people that were low and not being brought up very quickly, while also putting out about 50% of the heals on the tanks. I’m also very use to hearing whoever is popping the traps to call it out before it hits, and neither mage was doing that, and they were sometimes popped when people were low on health and once even brought the tank down to 10% with a trap hit.

We survived the hammer once I think, but died shortly after when most people were not in place for seeds or grouping for the big hammer. Oh well, was something to do I guess. Next patch soon!

Rag Kill

Um let’s see, I did get a Rag kill with VoW, but I asked prior if I had any “chance in hell” at gear.  But, nothing good dropped anyway.

Well I can’t take all the credit for this, Tharus was helping to tank him XD

Did some, ‘world pvp’ outside of the TB bridge a bit and apparently Cassio is my near twin!

There was a shaman named Skinless who did a lot of spitting, laughing, and waving goodbye to me lately, not sure if it’s someone I know or not.

Cassio

Got in a Domo raid the other night, with, siiiigh, 2 other mages.   However when Raliden, on his alt, mentioned something about the other mages objecting I laughed and said knowing mages at least one will rage quit.  And one by the name of Torch or something like that, did rage quit after our 2nd wipe.  Cassio did me a favor and came in and we got it down, and I properly rolled crappy and didn’t win my shoulders.

Then I went on to try Rag with VoW (I know, I know) but we wiped like 5-6 times before it was called.  I had 2nd or 3rd highest dps and I feel I can dps any of the fights now.

Nothing of note really today other than helping a hunter, who was trying to solo thsose elite mini bosses in firelands, to get that achievement for killing them all.

228elleria

which got me the achievement as well.  Since the hunter was pulling a whopping 5k dps, Cassio again came in and helped out, and even then it was pretty close a few times.

He spec’d sarcasm

Got in a pug Firelands raid today and one of the tanks, Microsaccade was being sarcastic and insulting about most of the process, the entire time.  Hi, guy? It’s a pug, relax.

We got Beth down, then Shannox where I rolled an awesome 13 on the Coalwalker Sandals, and tried Rhyo.  We got him to the last phase on the first try but healing was low and no one got topped off after the initial stomp, and we died.  The tank and Raliden, on his shaman, were explaining the fight a little further, which I appreciated.  However then the tank asked Ral to define what “doing it right” meant with “does it mean slow dps and waste time” and I replied “if you are sarcastic yes” and they went offline shortly after that.  The druid healer had gone offline and didn’t come back earlier than that, and the other tank left and by then it was just time to stop.

Also got arena cap with a shadow/disc priest I ran into randomly named Apöllo. Got cap pretty quick and went 5-2. It seems like standing flagged near the pvp vendors you can pick up a partner without even trying.

Elleria the Hallowed

Got in a FL raid last night that went right to Baleroc.  So, after an hour or so, we had no bosses down.

212elleria

at one point we got him to 300k but that was the closest.  They tried to say the dps wasn’t good enough, but when half of the raid is dead at 40%, that is not a dps problem, that is a healing problem.  They also tried to  blame the tank but, again, it’s a healing fight.  None of the healers had a ridiculous amount of healing so that meant they weren’t getting their stacks up.  It’s not complicated.  So my first raid in FL as the mage got nothing down.

On the plus side I got Elleria the Hallowed the other day 🙂
