Kara again :)

After Magtheridon last night we were going to run regular Magisters Terrace, just for some rep. However due to a distinct lack of tanks Kuan and Telt got pulled into the end of Kara instead.

The Kara was fun, many badges were had by all. We killed Nightbane, Aran, Illhoof, Prince, Netherspite, and did Chess event too. The impressive part is that Prince and Netherspite were done with only 9 people. So Kuan went from healing on Mag to being the main dps on Prince, as our 2nd prot warrior and fury warrior and possibly a 3rd dps as well died to a combo of shadow nova + infernal blocking us in. I'm particularly proud of Telt on Netherspite. One of our 3 healers went down early and she kept the blue beam person up as well as keeping group heals going.

The loot was quite amusing as well. Kuan got 2 pieces of healy gear. The Cord of Nature's Sustenance from Illhoof and the Heart-Flame Leggings from Chess. The healy stuff is good for Kuan since that (and badges) is the reason that Kuan wants to go to Kara. As we saw earlier sometimes Kuan gets to heal. And it's just really important to be able to heal well when the RL says "you, heal {that tank, the raid, me}."

Telt got Robe of the Elder scribes off of Nightbane, which is, of course, the one thing that Viljo still wants out of Kara. So now my holy priestess has a better dps robe than my mage. >.< Ah well, it was either shard or Telt gets it, so I figured it would be worse to see it sharded... Either way I know I'll never see it on Viljo.

Telt's 'reward' for doing a good job on Netherspite was the Pantaloons of Repentance. I'm quite pleased to get those for her. I had just been wondering where to put the +22 healing quest reward gem for killing Kael, and in those pants is the perfect place.

You should run heroic MrT more with Viljo to get the robes off Kael! They're so much better than the Nightbane ones...

We haven't run heroic MrT once, yet!

Are the robes off Kael better than the T4 chest? Even if they are roughly the same the t4 chest would probably give the set bonus and that would be good.

But yes, I do want to run heroic MrT. And I've seen some people on Hyjal calling it that too :)

The robes off Kael are *much* better than the T4 chest unless you really want the set bonus. The T4 set bonuses are really PvP oriented anyway so I'm not sure you even want them (and supposedly, the 2pc doesn't really affect fire mages that much).

The next upgrade you'll get from that is probably the robes from Vashj, which have an additional amount of hit on it and 6 more damage.

Yeah I compared the T4 robes to the Robes off Kael in Magister's Terrace. I was unpleasantly surprised to see spell penetration on the T4 stuff. :( The sockets on the heroic Magister's robes are better too. Seriously 2 blue sockets on mage robes??
