The guild does old world raids on Sundays so last night I took Hortario to Zul'Amon. I have never gotten past that eagle boss.
It was a blast. We did the timed run even. Too bad the bear mount is not longer available.
No loot dropped for me, it was all plate and mail. But I had a lot of fun. I cant wait to see what we are doing next week. I hope someday we can take down Illidan.
Hortario is busting his butt to get higher. After seeing what they are doing to Affliction Warlocks, I have no desire to play anymore. Im losing two dots. It sucks ass. And Aflliction is so much fun, and a blast in PVP.

Why are the nerfing Affliction Warlocks? I see nothing wrong with them. Why take away two dots when affliction is all about dots. Geez. XD

Ugh I forgot about healing PUGs. The worst part is, the worst player was the tank... And he was in my guild. But he was a DK alt of someone I have never heard of. we didnt even down the first boss of Utgard. Tonight is Naxx. Im going to see if I can get taken in. I could use the epics LOL.

Naxx was pretty nice to me this last run. Last night I got a nice new neck piece, some pants that were replacing blues (now I am all epics) AND.....Tier 7 chest dropped and neither the Paladin nor the Priest wanted it so I rolled for offspec. I won. I don't really want to go Shadow and I dont think I will have to since healres aren't exactly in high numbers in my guild. But the shadow T7 robes are handy for 25 man Naxx cause there is a boss in there where you need to Mind Control the adds. And Hit Rating is very useful for that. Would have preferred T7 pants or headpiece but...meh.

Well I didnt get to go to Naxx. They had a too many people sign up. But not enough to fill a second raid.
So I logged.
It sucks that I ended up missing so much time, I could have kept my spot otherwise.

After Naxx tonight myself and two guild friends went through Heroic Occulus. It was my first time going through that instance. It was fun. The final boss has you riding on dragons and the color of your dragon dictates the role it plays. Green = Heals, Red = Tank and Yellow = DPS. It took us forever to do though cause the dudes we got in LFG didn't really knoiw what they were doing. I mean, I didn't either but I'm a fast learner. In any case, its a fun boss battle. VERY out of the norm for boss fights. Took a lot of coordiantion and skill that one. Apparantly the Eye of Eternity raid is a lot like this.
Naxx continues tomorrow.

I have Occulus. HATE!
I took Hortario into Azjol Nerob last night. We ran it twice. Got some new gloves and a new belt. I got the staff too, but im thinking I like using a 1 hander and an offhand better. Tends to equal more stats this way.
I have found myself lately looking for a little Raylu when I walk through Dalaran. I keep thinking one day my cow will run into you.
We should totally duel. And Hort to when i get him to 80. It would be fun!

I prefer one hander plus offhander too but that staff lasted me a few levels. Actually, it was so good I didn't even switch to one/off handedness till I got to 80 and got the Warmace of Unrequited Love off of Keristraza in Heroic Nexus.
Yeah we should duel if we run into each other. I'll obviously get my ass kicked being a Holy Priest and all. But it'd be fun.
Oh for those who were n last night. Two things. Yhazors, you asked me a question but I was in Naxx fighting a boss so I couldn't answer and when we won I totally forgot. To answer, I'd go for Intellect and Spirit for Priest more than Spell power right now. Anything "of the owl". And remember, since the patch for Lich King Spirit now adds to spell power so you get it that way. Once you get to Ouland you have more options for having all 3 on gear. Whether it be instance drops or auction greens. For auction greens at that level you can start looking into "of the Prophet" gear which gives Stamina, Intellect, Spirit and Spell Power. Plus the SP bonus from Spirit now.
And second thing I wanted to say, sorry for logging off last night without a word. I was in Naxx last night and suddenly I became very sick. We were in the middle ofa boss fight and I had to get up and run to the bathroom to throw up. It killed my raid but I told them what happened and they were cool with it. I stuck around for another attempt and we did kill the boss. But I had to leave right after to nurse my sickness. And I didn't think to even say goodbye or whatever.
I'm feeling a bit better today but still sick. I slept on the living room couch last night cause its super close to a bathroom. Probably won't be on during the weekend. Depends on how I feel.

Spirit adds to spell power? Since when. I know we have a talent that adds to it.
Prophet gear has Intellect, Spirit and Spell power. No stamina.
You are thinking Physician gear. It has Intellect, Stamina, and Spell power.
Priests want Prophet until they start getting blues with Intellect, Spirit and Stamina.
Who is playing a priest now?

I dunno about Spirit = Spellpower for all classes, but I just got a new ability that did just that. Fel Armor or something.

Priests have a talent that give us 25% of our spirit as spellpower. Also, Inner fire at level 71 or 72 starts giving us a bonus to spell power as well. And now that its 30 minutes instead of 10 I love it!
TOo bad Shadow protection lasted longer than 10 minutes as well.
I do look forward to getting Prayer of spirit without spending my talents.
Fel Armor is a must have for warlocks. Not only do you get that spell power boost but it has a regeneration effect as well. I love it.

Oh its a talent? My bad. I just remember getting a trinket that increases Spirit with each spell cast and it stacks ten times. And I noticed that my spell power was going up with each cast. I thought it was 100% spirit doing that.

Well now that I am back in priest mode, I loaded all of my mods and stuff. Spent all last night configuring everything. Then realized 3.1 is out any day now and I will just have everything broken and have to redo them all.
Thanks Blizz!
I wish the in game scrolling combat text was more customizable. I had to disable it and load the add on version. It lets me choose different font, and make it bigger. It is nicer for me as a priest I think.
Then i loaded the basic CT mod, I don't use hardly anything with that anymore, but it lets me hide those damn gryphons on the UI.
Then I loaded recount. Hopefully this new version and the new configuration wont crash my damn computer. It was basically eating all my memory before. But I only want the healing option really.
There are a couple more i need to get loaded, decursive and omen. but for now I think I am done. I wont really need those till heroics or raiding.
Ah I really missed my priest. I just shouldn't have taken the break I did because now I am so behind, and my guild has way too many healers.
I'm hoping to find some 25 man pugs. Healers dont need to be super decked out to join a raid. So heh. I might be able to sneak in some epics here and there.

oooh, you can hide those gryphons, huh? I don't have a huge issue with those but i wouldn't mind having those gone aswell. Recount has been useful for my healing. Ever since I saw I was lagging behind on the healing charts I had to get it. Its just so I know if I am slacking. I never post results thogh unless someone asks for a DPS count. I like that this game allows you to customize the shit out of it. EDIT>> Oh, and Deadly Boss Mods is useless. Lots of people say its a godsend but I see nothing worthwhile with it. Take Sapphiron for example. It has a phase where he starts flying and your group needs to spread out. Deadly Boss Mods has flashy screen warnings that tell you that flight phase is starting....yet I can SEE that it is cause I can see him flying. Utterly poinltess if you ask me.

Deadly Boss Mobs is useful for some bosses where you cant really tell what they are about to do. Like throwing someone on one of the fights in Naxx or some other random shit. Flying dragins really dont need any warning. I mean your right, its flying. OMG it flew! New phase!
