And we’re back in action.
3.0 hit while I was out of commission, so I’ve been scrambling around, trying different specs, trying to catch up. I have managed to complete a variety of achievements, and am working on further ones.
Notes at the moment:
- Starfall. So delicious.
- Alterac Valley hate. hate hate hate. Learn to not suck so badly, Horde. We can’t beat the Alliance in a race to the end due to unfortunate issues (I suspect either map layout, or complete idiocy)… so stop trying, please, and learn to defend correctly. We did win once last night, and it was nearly perfect- we lost Galvangar- but it was because we had a solid and unpleasant-to-encounter defense.
- Dreamstate + Swiftmend just… isn’t doing as much as I’d hoped. I’m working on it.
- The Bloodsail Admiral’s hat now comes with a Bloodsail Admiral title.
- Funny how as soon as the attunement’s gone, everyone wants to do Onyxia (seventeen volunteers, versus two who were willing to go through the attunement chain first)
- I have a Zhevra. I think. The GM I talked to said he had put it in the mail. We’ll see.
- I was going to thin out my gear now that the unified Spellpower stat exists. Problem? I am horribly attached to the pieces which, logically, should be leaving. Light’s Justice is sitting in my bank. It’s going to stay in my bank. It was dropped for me on our guild-alliance first kill of Prince way back in the day. I’ve been using it ever since.
- Our guild cleared Zul’Aman. Considering our best prior to the patch was one total kill of the Dragonhawk, and one attempt on the Lynx, I’m going to go with “The combination of new talents and boss difficulty reduction has made life much more excellent.” We managed to catch the first three chests, we only wiped twice- once on Lynx due to a misunderstanding, once on Zul’Jin himself because not everybody ran in and several of the raid were trapped outside. Nonetheless, we managed to get him to phase 3, in the process learning the fight both for those inside and outside. We then proceeded to down him on the next try. Total time was just under two hours- we’re going in again tonight.
- I’m looking at spell haste. I want to make a haste-druid, Dreamstate if I can. We’ll see what happens.
- Scourge invasion! I’m loving it; I was very upset when I wasn’t high enough level to do this last time it was around. I have my tabard, my horn, my banner and 3/4 of the cloth caster pieces (I don’t have the chest yet, predictably enough)
