Adventures of a Dwarf Priest

You are not prepared!

Or are you?

I yet again didn’t get on in time enough to do an instance (and I’m really itching to heal) but I did continue my preparation for 3.1.  I’m sure I’m not the only one too.  Of course the main focus of my preparation has been to create  a set of gear ideal for my upcoming Shadow mode.  I’ve been doing a lot of reading about Shadow Priests as well.  Like I’ve mentioned before, I’ve never been one ever, and from my play on the test server they are more complex than the two buttons I use on my mage :)

I started off evaluating my gear from the shadow priest sticky over on the priest forum.  The good thing I found was a lot of what I had would work great.  A few items were not ideal but certainly good until I acquire something else, my head for instance.  My weapon seemed very much out of place but luckily there was a crafted alternative. The Titansteel Guardian was suggested as the pre-raid alternative for the SP main hand.  I was intending on buying the DPS badge offhand so this will go good with that.

When I got on today I went to AH and looked up what the Titansteel Guardian was going for, and that was about 900g.  But I knew we had some BS in the guild and asked to see if anyone could make it hoping the mats would be cheaper :)   Thankfully someone could and they were.  I have tons of Frozen orbs so it was really just the cost of the Titansteel.  I think over all it was just 550g in mats to make and one of Sydnie’s alts made it for me (Thanks again!).

I copied over the most recent Laneer to the test server to check out some things, mostly trade skill stuff but I’ve got some things I could play with on the SP too like my Illustration of the Dragon Soul. I need to test out the new fishing daily too!  I want to buy a few of the badge items though and see how it goes with my current collected DPS gear.

I know, I know for someone who was totally against the idea of Dual Spec I sure am going through a lot of trouble for it :P   I figure though there is no reason to deny it, we are getting it.  I know it WILL change everything but there is no reason for it not to benefit me.  I see the opportunities it will bring, and will allow me to enjoy more of the game with less time wasted.  I don’t have much play time as it is, if I concentrate everything on Laneer then I should be better off :)
