Kuan and Viljo went into Silithus last night. They both still have the long-ago-grey The Four Dukes quest partially done and Aurochh's email and bank are overflowing with Twilight Cultist clothing.
that quest is grey, becuase it's ostenisbly level 60. wtf, isn't a quest supposed to be rated at the mob level killed? the Dukes are all level 62 elites... green.
but anyhow, Aurocch parted with 4 sets of Twilight Cultish Clothing of Uglification and 2 LBS' and Kuan and Viljo headed to Silithus. farmed more clothes and Templars and finally pulled up a Duke... Shards, it was, which was disappointing as they both GOT that one already. but whatever the drops are nice.
unfortuantely improper clearing meant Viljo was Occupied with Twilight Avengers so Kuan got to tank, DPS, heal, and deal with getting stunned. WIPE at 12% mob health or something like that. augh.
some more farming and we had what we needed for another Duke. this time it was Fathoms and even though we did properly clear and had it set up for back and forth kiting the knockback just messed with Kuan's heals. WIPE again at considerably higher than 12% mob health.
smarting after that, I took a break from Wow and then when we came back we decided it was mote farming time. and finally, the obsession with skilling up fishing paid off. went to the elemental plateau and before the second Aquadynamic Fish Attractor expired, Kuan had fished himself up 26 motes of water.
then Rahlenti wanted to run a heroic. I was all "Underbog!" because I really want to do that. but, instead the intention got hijacked by Fireskorm who needed KoT rep. Lilra needed that too so we went into regular BM. but Fireskorm and Kuan don't play well together; part of it is style incompatibility, part of it is I do stupid things becuase I am so constantly annoyed at his attitude. it was a bad sign that three of us died clearing gators. Fireskorm refused to clear adds, so Viljo had to. we got through the first 11 portals ok but after that it was badness all around when Viljo managed to get out of healing range for both Kuan and Lilra and dropped dead on Temporus. Rahl and Fire run to the next portal... hello! if both the healers are rezzing someone and then pulling adds off Medivh, it's not a good idea to engage in melee with a Rift lord...!
Fireskorm claimed all the drops, becuase he DEs. isn't that nice. I didn't bother rolling on anything. Kuan was full, since they summoned him before Kuan could hit a bank, becuase Fireskorm needed to get done quickly; and last time I was in an instance with him, he kept the shards regardless of rolls anyhow.
the meters said Kuan was doing 230 DPS in BM. how lame is that, even if Kuan spent a lot of his time in BM as a sheep. I think it's just incompatible playstyles, but whatever. Fireskorm doesn't seem to be pulling all this deliberately. Clara thinks he just has an overweening sense of entitlement; I'm inclined to agree. anyhow I will probably try to avoid running with him in the future, not becuase I dislike HIM, just becuase I don't play well with him.
but all that left me thinking, I lose at Wow. all this nice gear, well, except for the green chest, and I can't even break 250dps in regular black morass.
