Thoughts on raiding in my new spec

So, a couple of thoughts on raiding with the 3.0.2 talents. Mana wasn’t an issue, I did get low once, but that was seconds before the end of the fight and I think I still had a Mana Tide available. Mana Tide only got used twice, and one of those was because another healer went [...]

Bobbing for Apples

An interesting night last night. Flowersz offered to heal a group for the Headless Horseman, just like hundreds of other healers, and it was a pretty lucky set of fights, in 6 summons we had: [Magic Broom]x2 Durability 85 / 85Requires Level 70Equip: Restores 8 mana per 5 sec.Equip: Increases spell power by 34. ‘,VAUTO,HAUTO,FULLHTML);” [...]

Post Patch Blues

Rambling post, I’ve been ill over the weekend and haven’t fully recovered. Addons Most of my addon’s are now working again, and I’m beginning to suspect that the Curse client has its downsides. It keeps prompting me to identify the a whole raft of addons when I’ve already done that several times. Bah, why can’t [...]

Some people amaze me.

Do some people consistently amaze you? My girlfriend is a constant source of totally pure impressiveness! A few months ago we were driving down the motorway when the song “Lola” by the Kinks came up on the radio, and for no reason whatsoever she suddenly started analysing the song, “on the fly” as it were. [...]

Patch day

The patch hit yesterday and as expected piles of addons didn’t work properly, even to the point of stopping me from logging out. I’ve upgraded most of the essential addons, but I’m still missing a couple of “core” addons, and a couple of upgradesdidn’t go too smoothly. I’ve got to redo my MarsBar totem casting [...]

Here it comes!

Patch day. I’m pretty excited and scared. I’ll have to re-do my talents (like everyone) I think I might try a cookie cutter elemental spec and respec resto as soon as it’s needed, just for a little fun. On the other hand perhaps I should spec resto so that I get my toolbars set-up and [...]

Sleepy

Knackerd today, but I thought I ought to point out that my last comment on our Master Healer was not in any way intended to put him down for using his best spell. Like most other healers he does a shed load of other stuff as well as just heal, and what’s more like ALL [...]

Naughty, naughty, smack, smack, smack

Which was part of the verse of a comedienne I once saw in a clubs somewhere a long time ago. She wasn’t very good, but that bit stuck. Yet another Kara run, I’d not planned to go on this one, but I did anyway, joining at Moroes. Three runs in a week is very very [...]

Linkin’ Post

This post by Dechion wasn’t bad: 9 Random things to do. The 100g game particularly amused me.

Oops

Part of the second part of Kara last night, 3 bosses only. Though I think (hope) that a clean-up party was being organised up for later in the night to tidy-up and finish off the dragons. The Bad: Flowersz was responsible for a wipe. I know this is like saying the last goal scored was [...]
