Another Blizz Fail and Raid Full of Bad Luck
10:56 PM Nymarie
Well that was a fun raid...not. We spent the first hour trying to launch "additional instances". Then we had multiple DCs, lagouts and things of that nature. My old drama filled guild also felt compelled to whisper me their 10man Algalon achievement. Needless to say, they're all on ignore now. Plus the GM decided that during one of our wipe fests, it would be a good time to whisper me about my ticket! So we accomplished almost nothing tonight. I do get my Venomhide raptor tomorrow and in two days I may be picking up the tier 9 shoulders (the only tier 9 piece that's an upgrade). And the GM that whispered me was very nice and helped me. So not too bad I guess. Off to bed and then more job searching tomorrow.
The Job Hunt Continues! ...yay...

Not much to say here and no it's not related to WoW, but I'm broke!!! And our job economy sucks at the moment! I'm hoping for an interview...or two...in the next few days...
Hard Mode XT Down
10:51 PM Nymarie
Due to a late start, we didn't get very far tonight. The authentication server for battle.net accounts was down again for almost an hour and a half. Of course, it was right at the beginning of raid. But we did kill all the easy bosses in Ulduar and got XT hard mode after a few wipes. Unfortunately one of them was caused by me when my DBM decided to quit working. It didn't announce I had a gravity bomb and xperl and healbot didn't show that I had a skull over my head, plus I was standing in the middle of the raid and I couldn't see my skinny blood elf ass. Anyway, the next time I just decided to stand outside the group so I could see the bombs. That worked but then my enrage timer screwed up. So I relogged and it magically fixed itself.
No loots tonight. Not many upgrades in Ulduar for me but eh. The hard modes are fun just without getting loot. Oh I also got Stokin' the Furnace which apparently my guild had already gotten the night that I offered to step out for someone.
I'd write a little more, but I'm exhausted tonight so I'm going to bed.

Twin Val'kyr and Hard Mode FL down!
6:47 AM Nymarie
Good raid last night! One shot the first three bosses in 25 ToC and then two shot the Twin Val'kyr. The new boss is a really easy fight if everybody's paying attention but I thought it was fun. It was a very different fight mechanic with the focus being on having the right color buff, but it was really cool and well designed.
But even before the new boss, the pretty robes that the holy priest got two weeks ago dropped again. And I won them this time! They look just like the Tier 9 robes but I think they have slightly better stats. So once again, I may not be using the Tier 9 chest.
Okay back to the Twin Val'kyr. Right before we started the boss the server crashed and we all fell through the world for a while. That was fun lol. Anyway, the boss is pretty simple. The tanks and dps need to be the opposite color of the mob that they are on. I'm not sure if it actually matters what color the healers are. The colors didn't seem to effect us much... Basically the two Val'kyr do two abilities. The first one is a big AoE that will kill you if you're not the right color. The game tells you what color you need to be though. So you just click on that color portal and you're safe from the AoE. Oh and you get a buff as the AoE goes off if you're the right color. The second ability I don't know as much about since I'm not a dps. But basically one of the Val'kyr creates a shield of her color on the other one. This shield will heal them if not destroyed, so the dps need to click on the portal color opposite the shield and dps the Val'kyr with the shield on it. And that's the fight. Simple, but fun.
So after we passed out the Val'kyr loots, I realized I had enough emblems for the second emblem ring. Both of my rings are ilvl 245 now woo! So heading to Ulduar, I had two new upgrades. When we got there, it was decided that instead of hauling ass to Yogg we were going to go for hard modes this week. Well the biggest clusterfuck of them all was up first. Flame Leviathan. We spent the rest of our raid killing FL with 4 towers up. Each time we fought him his health got lower and lower. Our second to last attempt we got him down to 2%! It was the end of raid time and our last attempt when we finally killed him. But we did it! Some plate legs dropped if I remember right. One of our dps warriors got them. Too bad the clothie shoes didn't drop. But I was too pleased with my new loots to care.
So I'm back on top on wow-heroes. Not sure why I care, since most people don't actually log out in their PvE gear. But most do. I'm 1st for discipline priests, 2nd for priests overall, 3rd for healers, and 9th for the entire server.
Well Lil Nym is whining because apparently I starve her to death, so I'm off to feed her. After that it'll be time to do my dailies and attempt to get my Ravasaur!
