Ok, accomplishments of the day in ICC10 incoming.

  • Marrowgar, LDW and BQL on HM dead for the first time
  • Sindragosa dead!
  • Two achievements
  • Received a new weapon (that was a huge upgrade) and a mark to upgrade my T10 head. This also got me an extra 125ish lolGS.

That's a lot of accomplishments!

I, um, accomplished not playing and reading my book.

I'm not sure why I didn't actually post it here, but we finally got Lich King 25-man down last week. We've been steamrolling IcC 25 now that we've actually started going into the place with 25 people, rather than with 23 with three additional players disconnecting/leaving early halfway through.

Look at my mace, my mace is amazing
Give it a lick, it tastes just like raisin


On heroic-25, we haven't made a lot of progress yet, though, obviously, we've got lootship. We had some not completely horrible tries on Saurfang, though we'll need a lot of improvement before he's going to fall.

Also, I went holy last tuesday, and our top paladin healer (who snipes all my heals, the *******) wasn't there. Which led to me thoroughly topping the meters every fight, until I went back to disc. Always nice to know I can still do it when it's needed.

Now I have that song stuck in my head, thanks Moz Smiley: mad
#307 Jun 24 2010 at 11:15 AM Rating: Good
Moz, what healing setup did you use for him?

Also, what spec were you?

I've been reading up a bit on LK heroic healing, and I presume the principle is somewhat the same. And I'm curious now.

Good question, let me see.

We had...
-2X Holy paladin
-1X Resto shaman
-1X Resto druid
-1X Disc priest (Me)
-1X Holy priest

I think that was our healing team, though I'm not 100% sure. We also had two switcharoo druids and a shaman - I know for fact that the shaman was DPSing that fight, but I'm not entirely sure what the druids were up to. We might've had an additional resto druid.

Sorry for not following up on this.

As you were Disc, and I want to learn more about my class/spec, could you link me a log? Like, whenever you have one around, anyway.

I wish I could, as it would also allow me to find out our exact healing team, but I don't think I logged that night.

I think the closest log I'd have would be this one, which was a week earlier when we had our first set of attempts on him. This one is a raid later and holds mostly saurfang heroic attempts.

Shield spam is awesome, but you use PoH a lot often? PoM on CD is something I have to work on personally. As I leave it off CD too often and that is not good.

Regardless, tonight in my ICC10 the other healer died early on Rotface and solo healed and dispelled most of the fight. It was pretty cool. The other healer was a not that good pally.

I was playing around with my pally alt the other day, he was about level 43, which I had gotten to through anking in the LFD tool almost exclusively.

I was bored and picked up dual-spec and made him Holy.

First reaction: Wow. These heals... take a REALLY long time.

Second reaction: I could use some more mana...

Third reaction: Where the hell is my Prayer of Healing!?

I agree. I've found that priest healing has ruined me for the other healing classes simply because we have so many options. The others do one thing or another better, but I'm used to being able to do everything and that's how I want it.

I find pally healing in particular to be very reactive, and I much prefer to stay organized and ahead of the damage. :)

To the point of the thread, I accomplished getting all four of my wisdom teeth pulled and being a cranky ***** all weekend. But in between the ********* I also finished up my Kalu'ak rep and picked up Pengu, thereby completing my 75th pet and getting the little fawn. (And yes, I farmed all those whelplings myself, buying them would be cheating.)

I find myself using PoH a decent amount. The problem is that during those really sickly hard encounters, where I really need to give it all, I've found that chain-casting PoH is the only thing that cuts it in terms of throughput. Shielding everyone takes too long, Flash Healing every player takes too long as well, Renew sucks too much and... PoH is simply the only thing keeping me in the game. Usually there is still *some* synergy left though, with me renewing ProM and using one or two Borrowed Time bonuses for my PoHs.

All four of them over a weekend? O_O

I've had one pulled a couple of months ago, and I'm going to need to get two more pulled as well... I thought I had it bad O_o

All four of them in an hour. It's the ******** that takes the rest of the weekend. Now I have this stabbing bone chip that renders eating impossible. I am angry and bitter and spiteful.

Is that even possible? I mean, if they anaesthetize all four corners of your mouth, you can't breathe?

They just knock you out. I went in for my appointment, and there was an IV, and a guy saying some stuff, and then I was in the car asking to stop for a milkshake on the way home. Mmm... milkshakes. Too bad I can't even drink a milkshake right now without excruciating freaking pain. WAH!

Yup. I had my wisdom teeth out four summers ago, but it was the summer before my freshmen yeah and I was young. They wanted to do preemptive pulling and take them out before they had even really developed.

I just walked it, they gave me an IV, and then next thing I knew I was stumbling out of the place like I was drunk.

I still got to ***** and scarf milkshakes and stuff, but it wasn't as bad as if I had gotten them out as an adult.

They gave me a long talk about how I should expect some downtime, because most people do this when they're nineteen and I can't expect to heal like they do "at my age." I'm all, first off, shut up with your talk of oldness, and secondly, do not disparage my healing ability.

Raiding guild application writing is worse than job application writing.


My dentist said my wisdom teeth are so perfect they'll never have to be removed if I take care of them. That was a nice thing to hear. I also still have a baby tooth which I cherish.

Oh god, I hope they do the same to me. Dutch dentists seem to be cruel - when I got that one tooth pulled he just used some local anestethics. To be fair though, he did a damn quick and good job, and it barely bothered me afterwards.

It's time for an update here, I think.

Joined a new guild at the beginning of this lockout.

New stuff I've done this lockout:

Cleared the first wing of ICC10 heroic. Got the achievements for LDW and Valithria, as well.
Done 6 Ulduar HM's, might continue that today.
Killed Putricide25 heroic, guild first kill.
Also did Blood Wing heroic and Sindragosa and LK normal. (Yay Kingslayer!) I actually think Sindragosa is harder than the Lich King, which is ironic.
Killed Halion on 25man normal.
I've also started building myself a Holy offset, but it seems the guild is more inclined to take me as Disc at the moment.

Not much of me to ditch considering that I'm not playing WoW at the moment.

Dno, for some people it would be a massive accomplishment, for me say.. a year ago it would have been too.
For me now, it's rather meh. WoW just isn't any sort of fun anymore, the only reason I'm tempted to log in is to talk to Kali, Delinja, Maz and Rio.
But that's not worth paying for, and I have no interest in raiding anymore as it only feels like grinding anyway.

That's what killed it for me anyway... progressing on a boss once is fun, twice is ****** up and four times is just utterly retarded and with how lame most hardmodes are plus the fact that you do 10 mans before 25 mans most of the times that's what you're doing.
I've always hated grinding, and when even progression raiding feels more like grinding than anything else the fun is just gone.

I'll see how the Cata raiding system works out, but I fear that they'll keep the ****** up hits harder hardmodes that ruined raiding so I doubt I'll come back.
