Ding 70 =D Did a marathon run this week and went 66-70 in three days. I never thought I'd get it done, but hey!

Went and grabbed my S1 main hand sword, always liked how that thing looks. Now to grind out the other 144k honor.. =\


And then the rep grind. Have the money for my epic flyer but I think I'm going to spend it on other things before I do that. Like scryers exalted, for example.

My guild had an AMAZING Kara run tonight.

1-shot Attumen, 2-shot Moroes with the worst possible adds, 2-shot Maiden(Guild first kill), 1-shot Oz(Guild first), 1 Shot Curator(Guild first). Tomorrow doing Chess and either Illhoof or Aran.

I also got my Blood Knight War Cloak with Badges.

I have a question though...

My current stats are:

AP: 1459
Hit: 204
Crit: 19.64%

I focused a lot on hit, but am I letting my hit Gimp my other stats? We always have a fear druid in the raid so its more like 25% crit but...

And advice would be great.

Picked up Midnight Legguards from heroic Slave Pens today then went and spent some badges on my Choker of Vile Intent.

I'm up to 5 PVE epics plus my S1 swords.

1512 AP
250 hit rating
22.7% to crit unbuffed.

Not bad for a rogue who's been in Kara all of 2 times.

9-1 tonight, 1714 2s.

We were on fire. Druid/rogue and we went up against 2 warrior/paladins, 2 druid/hunters, 1 lock/rogue, 1 lock/paladin, 1 shaman/lock, 1 rogue/rogue, 1 rogue/mage, and had one lucky gimme game of 1 lock.

We only lost to one druid/hunter, surprisingly. Felt extremely good to melt faces at last.

WOO! Guild has finally reached enough people to move to Gruuls and we downed Maulgar tonight. This was everyones first time in Gruuls ever and it took like 6 tries before we absolutely CRUSHED Maulgar. Like...1 person out of 25 died. That's it. Absolutely hyped!

(I know Maulgar ain't a big deal, but it feels great to move forward and actually be doing things on your own instead of just joining in with someone who already has everything on farm.)

its been an up and down few days
i finally got my back from Shade, i was also gifted the T4 helm heaven know when i'll ever use it but it was nice to finally get.

very happy after seeing the new BoJ Loot, got 120 in my bank not doing anything, though looking at the list of gear i could use another 300

sadly my guild GM went on holiday, and his absence has meant a massive decline in raids and gerenal guild happiness, hopefully all will be back to normal when he returns.

Done 782 dps on the Void Reaver run of this week... with the Combat Dagger build, with 4 blues still in my equip (I was third and better than many full purple ranged dps) and WITHOUT a feral druid, fury warrior or enhancement shammy. Thanks to all who helped me, I can't believe 6 weeks ago I couldn't go past 500 dps !!

Coming into TBC with ~2k lifetime kills, I'd say I've been PvPing a bit.

Got my Poison Vial from Kara Opera after fighting Romulo and Julianne 4 straight weeks and it not dropping.

Didn't manage to get T4 from Curator, but hopefully I'll get some sweet drops in the 2nd half whenever we finish.

I hate you so much right now...

I'm actually starting to accumulate gold on my bank alt, that has to have been the best thing I've done in ages.

Seems kinda wimpy compared to most of you folks but I hit 70 today and acquired my engineer's helicopter.

So having finshed part 1 of my career I start part 2 ... gearing up ^^

Want to bet that WotLK comes out before I raid for the first time ?

oh damn i'm shaking here lol.... just killed a 44 warrior... twice. (i just dang 40 - combat swords/ar, he's got the standard 2H fury leveling build with the second best weapon for that spec)

me* > him


first time he was mining, 90% health and 50+ rage. i followed him from 85 rage and had to blow sprint to catch up.

garrote > ss > rupture > ss > snd. lots of fierys and poison procs. his screen had to be going crazy with a hundred little double digit numbers... he got me down to about 25% but he died disarmed. he waits .a.long.time. to release as i take the node and skillup mining.

ten minutes later i was mounted and happened upon him as he was fleeing from a 41 mob. i just kept still while waiting to see what he'd do... after 2 years of playing exclusively on pvp servers, it's my modus operandi.

the wolf gave up on him. he mounted up and started towards me, circling around two 42 cats that were pathing to a point.

the chess match began.

i circle around the other side of the cats, close enough to aggro but keeping them between us. of course, he cuts the corner and dismounts, stands still a moment to watch the carnage as these two higher-level mobs will surely tear me to shreds; i keep my camera centered on him while strafing left and right to judge the distance... right around charge range i snap a hard left and make a beeline right at him... and vanish.

a classic sicilian dragon: offensive-defense opening.

nearly flawless execution: only one of the cats aggro'd on him when i vanished though. now he's in combat, can't charge, and i'm closing the gap :)

the cat gets there first, so he targets it, i open with a cheapshot -> rupture and it takes him awhile to even target me.

i end the fight at 75% health this time, and he dies disarmed. no iron node to ninja this time though.

*disclaimer: i have 70, 42, 35, 21, 16 warriors ;)

So that was last week; this week we went 4-6 due to hunter teams and general RNG.

A priest resisting CS, KS, Pounce, and Maim = GG RNG.

We dropped all the way to 1672. Smiley: frown

Not really an accomplishment seeing as I'm combat swords right now, but I got Malchezeen off of Prince last night.

Now if I want to go Muti I only have to find an offhand dagger.

Been a while. I've been playing WoW exclusively to raid (down to 130 gold after repairs and consumables, don't have time to farm). This semester is kicking my ***, which is why I haven't been around in like 2 months. Anyway, lot of Nooblestick news.

1. Blade of Infamy
2. Two of the Rogues in my guild quit, so I'm now first in line for the Warglaives (once we're on Illidan). That's assuming the officers don't give them to a Warrior, since it's not nearly as good for them as it is for us.
3. Fang of Vashj +7 frost enchanted. Got a Boundless Agony as well, which is also +7 frosted.
4. 5/5 T5
5. Nether Shadow Tunic. Caused a lot of drama, because I got it the same night as my T5 chestpiece. I was the only one who wanted the tunic, though.
6. Ring of Deceitful Intent.

And finally...

7. DRAGONSPINE TROPHY! Picked it up about half an hour ago. One of the worst gruul runs ever. We pugged half a dozen people, and the rest were alts. Half the raid was still in greens. Our mage tank's healer kept dying to blast wave. Our guild does loot as FFA to simplify the loot process, and a couple of the pugs got confused and accidentally looted two of the items off Maulgar. One was a rogue and got the mask of shadows (which was going to him anyway), the other was a priest who picked up champion T4. GM ticketed, loot distributed properly. Gruul was one shotted with only one death (my own, overaggroed the OT because I wasn't paying attention). DST dropped, and about 9 people were rolling on it. I won with a 97, which is honestly the first time I've had a good roll on something I really wanted. Second highest was 95. I promised the hunter who came in second that I'd keep running it with him until he got his. Took me a run a week for 6-8 months to get mine, let's hope his doesn't take so long.

Yay long winded and pointless stories!
