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.

Lfr gear rolls

Mar10

Did 49k on LFR Madness last week, was 2nd, wee!

This week I won 2 shoulder tokens and the helm, which got me 4pc lfr tier now. I gave one shoulders away to a DK though who rolled second highest. I didn’t think I’d win both in one fight (spine).

Things you don’t want to hear from pugs

Jan28

There’s a thread on the WoW healer forums about things you don’t want to hear from pugs, which ended up turning into a horror story swap. I have to say as dps, I think I have more bad stories since I have the possibility of a bad healer AND tank, rather than as a healer when I’m filling one important part.

Did an End Time today where the healer said from the start he didn’t know the fights, so I typed how to do them during the trash. The tank pulled every boss without hesitation, including trash when the healer hadn’t phased in yet. Pulled trash after a boss fight before anyone had a chance to drink, and pulled Murazond when half of us were still behind the hourglass, which meant every time I hit it, I had to run all the way back. He also linked recount mid-fight, screamed about time warp when I already hit it, and screamed about clicking before it was even time. Oh and he needed on everything he could. Needless to say I gave him a piece of my mind.

I’m Spoiled

Jan15

Ran the last 4 bosses with a few from A9n, didn’t win anything, then ran the first 4 with Alexmx. True to my word about giving him my mage-luck, he won FIVE ITEMS on 4 bosses. Serious!

He also got the gloves token but gave it to me, so it doesn’t show up on here.

My interface is hosed

Jan10

Got asked to raid by Nilvana tonight on the main and only raid team left in A9n. Wasn’t really prepared and my dps was not very good. Won Finger of Zon’ozz normal to replace the LFR one I had. I had a number of problems I need to fix, my hit was a 13% instead of 17, and my interface was literally barfing words and numbers all over so bad I was having trouble functioning. My dbm needs to be rearranged something fierce.

We all got knocked off the boat here, first time I’ve seen it like this.

And I got blown off by Deathwing Spine when I didn’t go to the left fast enough. Besides doing LFR the only normal fights I’ve done have only been up to the 3rd boss so yeah, my bad. Didn’t know all the normal mechanics. Still, I miss raiding with a group that is good. We stopped at Madness when the dps wasn’t high enough.

I’ve since then fixed my hit and de-cluttered the disaster that was my screen.
