Lucky Day!
by Laneer on May.26, 2009, under Achievements, Questing, Raid
My wife and son went off to visit some friends till Saturday so I found myself with a little more free time than usual. So I hopped on to see if I could score me a few raids, and maybe get my pants.
What I ended up with soon after that was a 25 man Vault. Not just any 25 man vault, but one that could actually kill Emalon! It was so earie, I was sitting there healing the boss tank, throwing around a few raid shields when necessary when I thought, something doesn’t seem right. Then I realized that the fight was going longer than normal. I think I didn’t breathe from that point till we won. He dropped all PvP gear and 2 of it was for Priests, but we had 4 Priests and I didn’t win any of it. I did get the achievement and my first conquest token 
A little bit after that I ended up in a 10 man version of Vault and did the same thing with a completely different set of people. So the only thing I can determine from this is that the people that play when I normally get on, are not nearly as good as the people who are on earlier. 
After I did that I think I did a few dailies then ended up in a 25 man OS. I was finishing that up just about the time Inien got on. I was excited because after I finished I would have enough badges for my Valorous Leggings of Faith. Then as luck would have it the Valorous Gloves of Faith and this time I won them! Well the token dropped but that is not as dramatic to link Anyways I was excited both things were good upgrades.
Almost right after I finished I was on skype talking to Inien I got invited to a 10man OS. Wanting to test things out I joined up and got Inien to come too. We did that pretty quick, and I even won the spoils, yay gold! Oh ya speaking of gold, my other upgrade of the day. I bought off the AH the Bindings of Yearning for 950G. They were a nice 214 upgrade, and had the stats I wanted particularly crit!
After the OS Inien and I enjoyed some Tournament quests. We did a few of the dailies before calling it a night. I was quite pleased with my upgrades though. For badge stuff I would like to get the Valorous shoulders next as I like the stat distribution more than my current shoulders. Don’t care anything about the 4 piece bonus, plus I have my really nice Ulduar head

The recent patch nerfed the adds in the Emalon encounter, so that when they get overcharged, they now physically grow into a tremendous size, so there is no confusion as to which add the DPS needs to nuke.
Back before they did that, the DPS had to be on top of quickly identifying the overcharged add, and if you’re in a pug, you were less likely to get that timing right.
Now, all the DPS has to do is know to immediately get on the add that grows big. Voila!

Ahh that could totally explain it, though I take it you still need to have good DPS to take him down which we did. Is adding a visual queue really a nerf?
I use all kinds of visual queues built into my UI to know what I need to do; Debuff highlighting, Agro Highlighting, In Range detection, incoming heal estimator. Of course I have a lot more to keep track of than a typical DPS
