Of addons and addoffs

This weekend I was leveling my tank and even with him I was seeing the “micro-freezes” I’ve been whinging about for the last month or so. Sunday however I turned off “Aloft”, and I can’t be sure until I raid on Flowersz, but I think it made a significant difference. I should be able to [...]

Healers, Tanks, and, the hoi poloi

So this weekend highlighted a serious lack of healers in Wow. I passively sat in LFG for quite some time, and though I was invited to tank a couple of times neither group found a healer before giving up.  I can’t say I’m surprised. I personally only stayed resto spec on my Shaman for a [...]

nowt mooch

Most of this weekend was spent leveling Fflowersz the prot warrior. And though I spent quite a few hours in LFG I never got into a group that had a healer. Oddest thing of the weekend was: There I was questing away in my Ogre Suit in Magmoth, the cave north of the airstrip in [...]

burble

Logged on last night just in case the munq’s needed me to raid ToTC, they didn’t, which is fine by me. They did well, downing more than just a couple of the bosses.  Smythy did invite my shaman as DSP to do 5man heroic Trial of the Champion as DPS, but I really didn’t want [...]

Dilemma

So Achtung Panzercow says that Trial of the Crusader is easier than late Ulduar and who am I to disagree. He also says it drops seriously high level loot for the difficulty. And we all love loot don’t we? So the munq’s are running progression Ulduar on Monday/Thursday and TotC on another day. My dilemma? [...]

Addon troubles (or not)

By the end of last night, after several ReloadUI’s, I was running without Power Auras Classic (the classic classic, not the updated classic), and with Healbot instead of Vudo, to see if I could get rid of these damn momentary freezes. Unfortunately they still seem to be there. I’m running out of addons and programs [...]

Raid night

Got off the train, did the horsies, and dashed home, logged in immediately and got an invite before Lagaran had finished loading. Followed by a very messy time stuffing Pizza, lettuce and potato salad into my face while trying to move around Ulduar. I’d be very surprised if Smythy didn’t have something to say, there’s [...]

shorty

I’ve been busy with RL stuff, so little to say. I will say; I spent a few hours on my lvl 70 warrior, Fflowers, last night. it was a bit tricky getting back into the swing of things, like remembering which spells interrupt casting and the like. But eventually it started coming back to me. [...]

25 years

That’s how long it’s been since me and Sue started going out together (yesterday)! She’s my first girlfriend, and I’m still in love.

Freed from the tyrany

of healing meters. I’ve got a stripped down set of addons for raiding, I’m quite surprised how many addons I need “at the auction house” so to speak that I don’t need when healing. One of the addons that went was recount, sure it’s nice to see all those bars, pie charts and “activity” meters [...]
