Priestly Bubbles

One thing I'm seriously ready for is the 10/25 shared lockout and gear.
I was told yesterday that I'm a lazy ass casual who doesn't care about their gear because I prefer not to tank 25 mans.  I'm not sure how the latter makes me the former.  I simply don't like tanking 25 mans.  Even if I did, my guild doesn't run an alt 25 man and I hate pugging...

But, when I was asking about 264 off set pieces vs. 251 Tier 10 for Death Knight tanking, I was told it didn't matter because I obviously don't care enough to gear my character "correctly" or "the best way possible".

My favorite thing to do on my Death Knight is tank ICC 10.  I think it's fun.  I can run with a ton of friends on their alts and have a good time, but I still want to be the best I can be for them.

But yesterday, I was completely disgusted by this prick of a 25 man raider calling anybody who doesn't do 25 mans "lazy" and "uncaring" when it comes to their character.

"25 mans aren't that hard to do or get in to."  I never said they were.  I said I don't enjoy tanking them or pugging them.

People need to realize that just because they enjoy the game a certain way doesn't mean other people do too.

Not.

I jump into the first 25 man raid I get to go on with this guild and everything decides to hate me.
We pull trash.  Some new trial pulls two different groups and we wipe.  ON TRASH.  WITH A 20% BUFF.
/sigh

We get to Marrowgar.  Something odd happened....and we wipe.  Wtf?

We approach Lady Deathwhisper.  I decide it will be fun to spill coke on my keyboard.  My b and p fall in love and I cannot type one without the other appearing somehow.  Then, completely random, my mouse dies.  So I think, I'll tab target this fight.  Ha.  My tab button becomes spacebar and I can't target anything.  I attempt to restart my computer and don't make it back in time.  I miss the emblems from LDW and the quest reward.

We start the Saurfang fight.  Suddenly, everyone's lagging.  Then BOOM! server crash.  I mean really?

Now I'm sitting here staring at the "Logging in to game server" screen while the majority of the raid is already logged back in.

Okay, Fates, whatever it was that I did to piss you off, you think I've paid for it enough now?

Well she's not really a baby, just an old abandoned 80 priest from Naxxramas.

I'm absolutely frustrated with the fact that there is a lack of caring in our guild.  I got into a pug on my death knight tank last night and got as far in 10 man as our guild run did.

So...I'd rather stay on the server but I want to raid again.  I miss it.  But the only guilds on the server recruiting any sort of priest want holy priests.  While I wait for a response from the guild, I have specced little Caestine from Bladefist holy and I intend to learn the only priest spec I don't know so that I can raid again.  It's not really learning from scratch.  It's still a priest...and I did play holy when I was leveling to 80.  But it's been so long!  I know almost nothing.

Okay work time!  <3 the arcade.

Yeah....I'm back.  I've been posting on the priest forums, so I figured I'd start back up here.  I don't hard core raid anymore, so I'll just blog about things I learn, whether it be about the priest class, certain achievements or WoW in general.  So what's Nym doing now?

I've moved to the server Hyjal with some RL friends.  And somehow...I became the guild leader of a small 10 man raiding guild.  Though we're having trouble with a consistent tank healer.  I have become the "dps with a heals offspec".  So I'm Shadow as much as I am Disc.  I have both specs' 4 piece set bonuses.

My baby Death Knight has become a badass little tank.  She completed Storming the Citadel (10 player) this past week.  Tanked the whole thing with no messups.  ^_^

Started a little Ret/Holy paladin on Hyjal.  I will learn to heal with every class!

I got exalted with the Sha'tari Skyguard.  Awesome looking Nether rays for the win!  I'll post a SS later.

We did some old raids.  Got some badass old gear.










Though I had to dps next to some naked mages.  -_-










The strangest things seem to happen in our raids.  o_O




















I really need to get some sleep so I can't blog much more tonight!  More updates and screenshots to come!
