RNG hates me

Apr16

Got Cho’gall down tonight, YAY! Lost the roll on the nice trinket though. I threw a fit at the start about pugs, but it was clear a bit into it they knew what they were about and got it down. So, Jan was right about it tonight. I forgot to take any pictures, was tired, and in pain from being a stupid ass on roller blades and falling on cement, and hitting my back in a bad way. Was told I should talk to another priest about getting better hps, said someone with worse gear gets 13k hps. I… am not really sure how someone could sustain that but if it’s possible I wouldn’t mind hearing it. I just see no reason to throw heals when no one needs it and I’m not expecting damage.

But, I decided to go reforge my stuff into holy stats rather than trying to balance for disc, since I really only pvp as disc, and reforge mastery into haste and spirit. That should help.

Could it get any worse?

Wasn’t really happy about the raid last night.  SJ and I talked about how the raid was half pugs in the morning, and agreed that would not fly.  Tonight however Jan wanted to put a group together anyway. I said I did not want to run if it was half pugs, he said it would not be.  I dropped the 3v3 I was doing with Rashill and Leonz to join up, and sure enough, it was HALF PUGS.  I griped about this in officer chat and he said they are not pugs, they are friends.  I said PUGS, are anyone who is not a member of the guild.  He said they were all good and it was a good group.

Ugh.  Victory or Whatever killed Halfus shortly after we did, and when we were still mucking around at the twin dragons, they were on Cho’gall.  Some people continued to die to stupid avoidable mistakes, and naturally the pugs won all the BOE items.   The druid Jan invited, Peri, won the staff of mending worth around 20k, and “lost power” after the first fight and never came back.  So, another raid run where I got nothing.  We got up to Cho’gall but it was late and I wasn’t about to attempt it with some random ass group.  This will be the last raid I run with so many pugs it’s no longer a “guild” group.

Put yer gear on

Apr14

Today I ran a 25m BH with an alt of Peejays who just happened to be invited, that plus my heroic run and I picked up my t11 robes that look… just like the robes I had. Maice came with me for that run, and we had an idiot hunter named Slayerr from Dark Iron who was wearing a level 1 hat that turned him into a gnome. I repeatedly asked him to put his real helm on, even saying maybe I should run around with half my gear off to no effect. I told him either put on a real helm, or I’m kicking him. He replied “but I’m doing top dps” like that is a good reason to not wear the right gear (9k dps, below Maice and the warrior) and I kicked him.

Sometimes guildies are worse than pugs

Apr13

Ran my daily with mostly guildies… and um, we’re kind of back at the point that I am reconsidering asking guild people to come with me. The mage was doing 10k, the warrior 7k (tanking), and the shadow priest… 5k. I had to heal like it was a Chimaeron fight and drink after nearly every pull, and shadow fiend and hymn of hope during every boss and still nearly lost people. Not a good situation.

Getting out and Pushing

Apr12

Last night while I ran my daily, I watched Peejay’s live stream of a heroic Valiona/Theralion raid. Went with Maice, Sj on his rogue, and a new guy Spanishfly (I think) on his warrior. It went brutal slow, with SJ doing about 8k dps on his rogue, and the warrior, who was not tanking doing 4k. I asked Maice at one point, during a boss battle, if I should “get out and push”. 2 more dailies and I can get my t11 robe.
