Naxx 10 fail group, and Ulduar day 1

So went to ulduar last night with the guild, was healing along with our other shammy (green lines of life ftw) and another pally healer. Went extremely smooth no-one died on FT, Only I died on XT (evil evil bombs ftl) and we cleared 2 more bosses after an attempt or two. Had a blast and goes to show how a good group can do good things together.

On the the main topic of the night, Just left a PuG'd naxx10 run. Was hoping to pick up my T7 sholders, and leg's but NOOOO!!!! I started off healing with 2 tree's. Starting on patchwork went fine killed him 30 seconds short of his enrage, so we were a little low on dps but heals/tanks were fine. Grob we wiped on once, due to people not watching clouds. 2nd time went just fine. Then gluth.. FAIL epic fail, wiped 3 times, decided to go to arachnid. Couldnt even kill the first boss, with a pally bitching at me because my heals wern't high enough, told me to go dps. (mind you pally wouldnt buff anyone and was barely doing 1100dps) switched to dps, 2400dps ftw (not a lot but topped dmg charts) and got bitched at again, this time for dieing because I had to try to keep add's of healers!!! Yay! I don't know why I still pug content lol. Guess im to spoiled over guild run's.

PuG's 25 man content, and guild naxx day 2

So yesterday before naxx10 I pugged up a 25 man OS, they said they needed a dps and i figured why not it doesnt take to long to do. Once I got there a healer had to drop out and the raid leader asked if I could heal instead, which was fine, loot rolls were as followed roll for main spec. Now I assumed that since I started the run dps and switched to healers out of the benifit of the raid I would be able to roll for dps. Well the run went really smoth finished it in under 25min. Then loot gets started they start with my teir token. We start rolling for it when he asked, and I rolled a 98 woot! But wait, we still had a guild member of his dead (hunter) and since he was dead no rolls counted, we all had to re-roll (just me and him) and he beat me on the 2nd roll. Okay at this point I was pissed, then loot continued. A really good melee dps trinket dropped, and again I rolled really high (95 i think, RNG loved me that run). But wait, 2nd place was a DK guildy of his that rolled a 90 and then bitched about a healer rolling for melee dps trinket, when clearly I joined the raid as melee dps and melee dps is my main spec, so I got screwed out of all the loot from os25 and was in a really bad mood and going to guild naxx10 where about 6 of the people running day 2 are new to naxx, or new to me running with them

Started with spider's. Wasn't watching time was sulking in my own little world, next thing I know 45 minutes in we cleared spider's (and a 5 min boss explination before each boss). Then plague the dance of course was a bitch, ended up with MT, OT, one ranged dps and me healing the last 30% yay! but cleared it just fine, and even thaddius died quick, although healing thaddius is a brain overload for me. Killed gluth in 2 tries thanks to our lock swapping to his druid for another tank.

Starting naxx day 3 tonight hopefully going to drop Saph and KT tonight, wish me luck for my upgrade fist weapon and maybe helm tonight!!!

I don't carry all this armor around for good looks....

So ran one of my first fairly descent naxx25 runs tonight, but caught a little gripe from some of the members, first off let me say the guild that was running it was a good group of people and did a fairly good job. Half way through the run we lost a healer, I was 3rd in overall dmg but I did have my healer gear with me and we really did want to pug up another healer, so I switched off and we kept rolling with a 24 man. Then it happened, got some good enhance shammy/hunter loot, of course the raid leader said at the start of the run that you will be rolling for the spec that you started the run with. So here I am in my healer gear with enhance shammy gear staring me in the face, and much to my delight the raid leader asked if I was going to roll on enhance or heals, then the loot bitching started, everyone was furious that I got choice of spec to roll on, of course healer did do a good job saying I split the duty's 50/50 and realisticly I should get to pick one or the other, of course a quick look at the only other hunter in the run who never said a word about me rolling was wearing a blue in that slot, so i passed on it for someone who is doing a good job and not bitching to get a good upgrade, it was only a minimal upgrade for me besides im waiting for main hand fist weapon off good ol KT.

Dailys the bane of my existence

So I finally got tired of everyone picking on me for not having my fast mount, and decided to start running dailys, using my tradeskills ect. You know the stuff we are supposed to do to make money? I have come to find out that I hate running dailys, I can run 200 quests a day no problem but those 25 daily quests are killing me! Thankfully it wont be a whole lot longer and they will stop picking on me and go back to gnome bashing.

New night at naxx, new video card :-)

So I ran naxx10 last night with guild, had the video card and power supply together and running perfect never dropped below 50fps. This is just a foot note of the night though. It is amazing how some people can surprise you, I was healing last night given we had an inexperienced healer with us and man did he do awsome! I knew the fights, knew most of the core raiders so I knew who to heal, who to watch, who would die very very fast (and the little gnome never did die at all) but Ahm had never ran naxx, only read the fights had ran a lot of 5 mans but never full 10 man content. He gave me a run for my money as far as heals, and I am an naxx/ulduar gear and was on raid heals! He is in greens/blues ect, Its just nice to see people know how to play there class well, who pay attention and who listen to RL and any and all advice he was given. Really looking foward to night 2 and really looking forward to seeing when he get some upgrades.
