Revered with CE

One of our recently-70 rogues wanted to run a heroic, any heroic, and the daily was Underbog. So I brought Eeyan and Clara brought Viljo and off we went.

This was a disaster as the healer was a resto druid who kept falling asleep. So instead Clara brought Teltanara and we got an ex-guildie Ladrean to fill in the DPS/CC spot. He's a lock and that's better CC in Underbog than a mage anyhow.

It took much longer than I thought it would - we kept wiping on trash - the only wipe on a boss was when our tank started the fight while Eeyan was still trying to poison his weapons - but now Eeyan and Teltanara are both revered with CE. Telt has a new healy head and Eeyan has his +hit +AP head enchant. Yay!

Exalted with Darkspear

Well, the coins weren't enough to do it. But whilst doing the coins, Kuan discovered he'd never killed Fizzle. And while running about BRD for the coin in the Ring of Law, some Runecloth dropped.

So, at 3 years since getting rolled, and 94 days 50 mins played, Kuanchichi is finally Exalted with Darkspear.

Now, I can go to sleep.

We are not posting enough pictures to this thing, I think.

I will try to change that, too, over the course of the next week,

draNgNon progress 11 Feb

It's been 2 weeks, well, and a day but I was busy yesterday. Time for my progress based on my last list. [[[sigh]]] I have not updated the blog as much as I'd like, I have not played as much WoW as I have been previously, and what I have played was not so much raiding, becuase of work. Hopefully all that will be rectified soon. Until then...

Plans and how they get happily upset

I logged in last night with grand plans. There would either be coin collecting for Kuan and Viljo, or questing for Eeyan and Telt, or heroic UB for Eeyan and Telt. I figured that while I looked for a group and DraNgNon dealt with her banker I'd take Telt to bomb in Skettis.

I was almost half way through bombing when I get a random whisper. "Wanna heal heroic Mech?" It was from an enhance shammy that Eeyan and Telt ran around with once when we were all little in Hellfire. This enhance shammy is in once of the top guilds so I figure the run shouldnt' be too painful. I ask if they have room for a rogue too. Because I know Eeyan's real goal is badges for the Blood Knight War Cloak. Enhance shammy says yes and off we go.

Then I am reminded that as much fun as playing Teltanara is it's really hard to make sure everyone stays alive in a heroic. Telt has just over 1400 +heals, but if the tank is taking a lot of damage, say from those stupid bomb throwers, I don't have time between spamming heals on the tank to drop more than a renew or two on the melee, and sadly that isn't enough to keep them up in that case. :( So, much to my chagrin, Eeyan died a bumch :(

But we persevered, and managed to down every boss on our first try. I was doing pretty well keeping everyone up on the fire lady until the eles decided to go after me... Then 3 of us (including me) died, but we still managed to kill her. The gauntlet part was also pretty challenging. The first set of 3 waves we plowed through, I was very close to OOM a couple of times but managed to keep everyone up. Sadly I was not so lucky the second set of 3 waves. The tank went down but the rest of us managed to run out.

Pathaleon was interesting. It's funny how fights feel entirely different as a healer than as a dpser. Telt got mc'd first but fortunately didn't do too much damage :) and the tank stayed up. Then the loot popped up and Telt won Boots of the Pious and Pattern: Arcanoweave Robe. And with the badges Eeyan did get his spiffy new Blood Knight War Cloak.

the Lunar Festival is here!

and OMG, the quests have all reset!

I am going to get them ALL with Kuan this time. Maybe, he will even manage to hit Exalted with Darkspear.

Lurker Down!

We just downed The Lurker Below! I am so excited at our first boss kill in SSC! It took a lot of work and coordination but it was so worth it to still be standing when that giant fish died. :) It is also pretty good because one of my favorite tanks got the Mallet of the Tides.

In the process we lost a bear tank who, well, I'm not terribly sorry to see go. Apparently in our last failed attempt she was one of the people not listening to the RL's directions. Instead she was listening to her bf, who was standing behind her. He had quit the guild some time ago and I was quite glad to see him go. Anyway after Wednesday's attempt and the RL shouting on vent about people who weren't listening (but not naming names) apparently she cried. So she qguit before our tries tonight and wonder of wonders it took us only 2 tries to down Lurker. First one we got him to 20% and the second one we had one a couple of people down when we killed Lurker.

Then of course we tried Hydross a couple of times just so everyone could see him. We've got the resist gear for that fight, but our tanks need to work on the hand off between phases. And our dps needs to work on not dotting him too close to the hand off.
