Mount Hyjal

We tried Mount Hyjal for the first time the other day. I've never been there so it was fun to be able to see something new in the game.
We prepared quite well and Rage Winterchill went down on first attempt. Anetheron was more trouble tho. The waves of mobs were never any trouble and neither was the boss himself. The real issue were the infernals he spawned. Took some tries before people fully understood the concept of "run to the tank -before- the infernal lands". Took us four tries to get it right.
Good thing about it was that epics dropped on all the tries before success which made the failing attempts more lucrative loot-wise than an immediate success had been. Two recipes and some back and axe dropped if I remember correctly. But boy those fights were fun!
Long till we go there again.


Finally got my epic flying machine on my hunter, so now I've got a decent herb/mote gatherer. Weee!

What will be left?

Soon my quest to get all classes to 70 is fulfilled. I've got all classes except rogue to outlands anyway. What will be left? Getting different specs to 70. Working on a shadowpriest and a feral druid. Feral druid was way more fun than I thought it would be. I suppose trying to kill stuff in kittieform while being resto isn't fair game... And then WotLK!
I've already filled my mains server, so I suppose I will have to put my Deathknight somewhere else then. I also hope they remove gnomes as a playable race in the game, or at least make it so that they can't tank... dwarfs shouldn't be able to be rogues either.
Got the t5 gloves some week ago btw. Now I am hoping to get the t4 head from Prince... would really do me good.

Leotheras daun!

And the title says about it. I passed some t5 gloves to another priest as I had gotten shoulders and pants before... or which way was it? Ah I passed something anyway. I'm such a nice girl.

The fight was quite easy for a healer, the real work was with the dps dpsing when they should and not when they shouldn't, which sometimes seems hard to accomplish ^^ Raidhealing this guy was great fun actually. Two wipes and we got him on third try (I think it was). Soon we can get badgeloot too, we're at 90% or so. First thing I'm gonna buy me is teh übernice chest... *drool*

Long time no see

Long time since I said something. Mostly because not much special happened, I've been playing up some different chars, so that my paladin, druid and shaman soon are 70 too (they are all over 62 anyway).
But tuesday and today we did some nice and fun progress in the guild worth writing about! My guild does Kara badgefarming, Gruul lootfarming and ZA for progress. There are some bosses we hadn't manage to down in ZA.
Tuesday we tried our first time on Malacrass. Easy enough and down on the first try. Zuljin was up next and that fight was quite tougher than Malacrass. We tried some times, learned one phase at the time (except the first two which are quite easy) but after getting him to 8% at one try we all knew we were tired and unfocused and left happily with the experience instead of the loot, and went to bed.
Today we did our first run in SSC. First up was Lurker Below. After three tries we got him down, yet again one of those fights which is quite easy when people learn to stay away from the Spout and such. Hydross turned out to be an even easier fight, for me as a healer it was cakewalk all the way. Only the dps and the tanks must've had a hard time keeping track of the different phases and when the adds come and yadayada, but as a healer Hydross is really quite simple. Failed the first time coz zome over-eager dps snatched aggro and pulled him to the wrong side. Got him down with no casualty the second time. Well I think I died once from the adds but I was Combat Ressed, so I didn't have to watch the fight from the floor like with Lurker :S

Advancements

I knew that after some whining about the evil fact that holy paladins can use four times more loot than holy priests (although plate of course is to prefer, one rarely says no to goodie goodie upgrades) something was bound to happen. I have done plenty of runs to Kara with my holy priest and last time I got something was October-November, I can't even remember it, it's that far away! I think it was my first run there too...
The problem wasn't really the guild being evil, the guild is actually great, the problem was that nothing ever dropped. Or well it did, leather, mail and plate... I saw countless paladins gear up (our guild has mostly paladin healers I think) and thought "well something just has to come my way soon". But no.
So I posted some whiny posts on the guildforum about the cruelty of the world and the like. And what would you know? The two runs after that I got something like six gear pieces. And again, me being the only holy priest in the guild, this has mainly to do with the damn stuff not dropping at all than me not getting it when it does.
Now I feel fit for ZA.

I'm leveling my paladin at the moment, as a tank, coz that's the most fun. And how fun! So easy, can tank fire mages five levels higher than me with quite ease. The threat output of a paladin is insane, at least the first minute...
Thought tanking as warrior sucked... it was so hard! I did a SL the other day with a fire mage and boomkin and shadowpriest (yes sucky setup) and I had to taunt like all the time. And I thought "hey, I really suck at warrior tanking". And then some days later when I found out I for some reason hadn't bought Intercept and went to do so, I found out I had played with rank 1 Devastate, Shield Slam and Revenge all along... I remembered I had respecced from fury to prot when I dinged 70, but had of course forgotten to buy the new ranks.
Suddenly I thought I was great, having tanked that good with that crappy skills ^^ My god I'm nubby sometimes.

I still haven't bothered skilling engi either... I have 8k gold just waiting to buy an epic mount. Soon soon. According to my estimations I need seven primal fire for my last skills. Which isn't much at all. But I'm too lazy to get it now.
