Like Li Kao in the Barry Hughart books (an excellent read by the way) I have a small flaw in my character. A light was shone upon it this weekend when I tanked a dungeon or three with my Paladin Tank. It was the first dungeon I’ve tanked in cataclysm, in fact the first in a [...]
Cataclysm heroics have got me all of a topsy turvy. I’ll run a couple of heroics and end up with a solid dislike of them, I’ve ended up feeling completely incapable of performing my chosen role as a healer. It feels like I either don’t have enough healing throughput, or enough mana, or maybe I’m [...]
Nothing like a guild run to make you realise that things ain’t so bad. Halls of Origination, smoe wipes, particularly on the first boss and a couple of trash wipes. Who would have thought that casting a spell that didn’t even happen because the mob was too far away would still aggro? Anyway, nice run. [...]
Tried to PUG two heroics this weekend. Failed both times.. Tank quit one. And I quite the other. The other was the boss where you have to stand upwind of the boss. Total fail. I can’t seem to easily see which way the wind is blowing, and when I can see it I get cycloned. [...]
So the observant will have figured that BOTH of the above spells are offensive spells that a Restoration Shaman is quite likely to have to cast before or combat. There is a reason for this post, offensive spells have a baseline miss chance, according to the tooltip for my healer my usual restoration kit has zero [...]
And it all started so well! A guild Heroic run last night, yipee! Guild runs are so much better than the strange unidentifiable smell that is PUGs! I was really hopeful that I was going to be able to get a new dungeon under my belt, what with having only run 3 so far, the [...]
And crikey! And carrots! Dungeons are hard again! So here’s some not-news…. I’ve leveled healy Flowersz to the new level cap questing as Enhancement and grabbing the healy gear where possible. So at level cap she was a bit undergeared as both Enhancement and as Restoration. She’s 525 in mining and JC. Jewelcrafting is not [...]
Well my original plan, way way back in the day, was to take several days off work and level my JC shaman healer most of the way to the cap and try to make a killing on the JC market. This and that got in the way and I eventually found myself unable to take [...]
Strange that I’ve not seen this any-were else, but the day that they released Cataclysm and more significantly Worgen, which we all know are werewolves, was a night when the moon could not be seen – aka the exact opposite of a full moon? Coincidence? Well, probably yes.
Woofsbane the worgen. What was I thinking!
