Adventures of a Dwarf Priest

Did my Outlands fishing daily and it was gators in Stormwind.  I stopped by the cathedral to spec out of Holy healing on my second spec and into my Holy DPS/Survival spec.  Discipline stays my primary healing spec

I went to turn in the quest before heading out and to my surprise I got Chuck!  In fact I was so excited I clicked him to learn it while I was flying over and nearly went splat(yay levitate)!  I now have 2 of the 3 in just a few days.  Considering my previous luck I have no idea how it happened

Hoping I’ll have enough energy to actually do something tomorrow, still too tired

Well I got my site fixed up again.  WordPress was in bad need of updating, which I also needed to update the theme, which then required my customizations to be reapplied.  Then I had to go find a fix for the flickr plugin I use because the author is MIA.  The armory widget I use was misbehaving but now it seems to be good.

WOOT!

Time to go do the fishing daily and then pass out LOL

Like the XT-002 Deconstructor I am soooo tired   I really have wanted to play but not the energy.  I might have mentioned or not that I had a big work thing on Sunday.  I was up at 12am, and went to work for a power outage, then back home at about 7pm.  Everything that could have gone wrong did I think   Anyways still haven’t recovered from that event.

I got on to mainly do the Outlands fishing daily (want more pets!) and then I was going to bed.

Then for some reason I got into my head, hey I’d think I’ll try to respec my Holy spec and try it out.  Forum posters are constantly trying to convince me I’m a waist of a slot as Disc (though I don’t believe that) and well I hadn’t actually tried Holy healing since beta and a lot has changed.  So I tried out a spec that wasn’t ideal, but didn’t get rid of my questing talents just to see.

After that I messed around testing some stuff, I wasn’t blown away huge numbers or anything, but figured I wouldn’t know how it felt till I tried.  Then my crazy self said, well how about a Heroic ToC, then at least I’d get some champion seals   So I got in LFG and a group almost instantly.  We got there started and when we engaged the first boss, everything went to Hell and we wiped. I thought him man I didn’t handle that well, mean while everyone else is blaming the tank.  We had the rogue for one and that poison sucks.  I kept blaming myself and we tried again, wipe again! I thought ok I’m really sucking here.  Again everyone blamed the tank, the rogue DPS leaves.

I told them I’d would switch back to Disc which is my usual spec, you get another DPS.  Then I looked at the tank and realized why they were blaming him.  He was a recent 80 as I found out from him afterward.  He was in nearly all blues, not all level 80 blues, no greens, but he did say he was defense capped.  So we grab another DPS and take on the boss again, this time I had no problem keeping him alive, and everyone else for that matter.  Even though not only he was not very well geared he couldn’t hold the aggro either.  The DPS were running around like chickens with their heads cut off.  We then went on to defeat all the rest of the bosses, and I never lost a single person after that.

You could chalk that up to my inexperience with holy, or maybe the imperfect build I have.  Or maybe you can say Holy is better for raiding.  What I’m going to say is Disc has all the tools I need to be an excellent healer and I am going to stick with it   I prefer the style, and most people tell me I am damn good at it   I’ll be specing back into my Survival Holy DPS build next time I log in.  It is a fun build anyways
