Adventures of a Dwarf Priest

I had the day off today so I started off the morning right by finishing all the questing I needed in Zul’drak.  Well before I went onto raiding the only thing I had left was a Gundrak run.  I enjoyed the remaining quests, and I earned about 400g and tons of enchanting mats too.  Doing the Tiki quests really made me want to buy the Troll Argent Tournament pet, they are so cute

After that questing run I ended up doing a 25 man Naxx.  The funny thing was the raid leader was a guy Inien kept teasing me about who stole my name.  It is a DK named Lanaar   I never said anything to him about it hehe  It started off a bit rough, we wiped to Patchwork whom we started with 3 times before we beat him.  We lost several people in the process.  I never did understand why that happened.

After we beat him we one shot everything else quite easily.  Again I have no idea why we did so badly on patch ;P  We stayed with mostly the same core group loosing a dps here and there along the way.  They had sort of complicated but fair loot rules.  Taking into account Tier pieces, main and off spec rolls, and how many epics you got.  Basically though they said make sure if you are rolling on something you really want it.

So a few upgrades dropped here and there for me, but they were supper minor.  This paid off well for me because something I really did want dropped.  One of my guildies had got it earlier in the week, a staff called Damnation. This is a perfect staff for a Disc priest I think   It is the baby brother to another staff I liked in Ulduar called Rapture   I rolled on the staff, and won based on my luck, but because everyone who rolled against me had already won something I would have got it anyways   I haven’t had a staff since Classic WoW.  All through BC I used Mace/Offhand combo.  It is kind of refreshing to change again.

We continued to do well through the rest of the content and I actually got the few 25 man bosses down that I hadn’t got yet to finish out my 25man Naxx achievements.  So hurray for finishing!!!

After we finished I decided that it is unlikely I’ll get another great weapon for a while so I threw the best Staff Spell Power enchant on my new staff.  It is quite glowy now, in fact it almost hurts to look at lol  I finished off the evening by doing a Heroic Gundrak to finish that last Zul’Drak quest.  So now I can either pick Storm peaks or Icecrown to work on next.

Thanks to those of you who clicked on my mountain dew banner and signed up I appreciate the extra points.  I’m putting them in for the Blizzcon tickets just in case   Also remember by signing up the rumur is you will get this in game pet.

I managed to get on early this morning and did some questing before my son got up.  I managed to knock out quite a few I still had left in Zul’Drak.  Mostly following the chain involving this big kitty spirit.

I also got infused with Bear spirit seen here, and eventually got around to doing that quest everyone loves where you run around lifting up the tails of cats and bear looking for females lol.  I ended  up getting closer to finishing off this instance I can’t remember how many quests I did but I do know I made around 275G from questing

Later that night when I got on this guild (who’s name is escaping me ATM) Inien often groups with and I’ve tagged a long a few times invited me to go finish their 10man Naxx.  Feeling like doing some healing I was up for it, especially when there are a few pants upgrades to my current pants even in a 10 man!

Had a good time, we had no wipes at all and that is always exciting to be with skilled folks.  We didn’t do too well on the dance, however I survived like I usually managed too (even though I am terrible at it) and kept about 5 of us alive despite being the only one removing diseases, and almost always having the guy too close to me so I relied on instants to do everything because casting slow   Thankfully I can Renew, Shield, Abolish Disease and Prayer of Mending with no cast time

Here we are gathering to do Lotheb.  This one is always interesting for the healers but I have some good tools to deal with it.  I would time Prayer of Healing, and toss a Penance out if someone got really low.  Plus I have the shield which isn’t effected by the debuff.  We also had really good dps which got him down so we didn’t have to do that for long

The night was fun though I ended staying up really late because the next boss kept having something that I wanted (pants) but I finally bowed out after Gothik the Harvester.  It was good fun, especially because we just had 2 healers, the only time naxx10 is fun for me.  We even had one of the dps warriors leave before Thaddius and we still 9 manned it the whole time.  It is a nice change to group with Quality people, it doesn’t happen often enough for me.  I can never cate the guild raids, and the only time I ever am in a good group is when I catch another guilds run like tonight.

Still bummed about my Blizzcon tickets though   I hope I can manage them on May 30th.
