    Happy: I got my Eye of Divinity today. I'm so getting my staff later on.

    The staff(s) is, in my opinion, one of the best looking staves in the game. It would be nice if they made a similar kind of quest/reward in Cataclysm.

    I wanted a Benediction so badly back in Vanilla, but finding a raiding guild on my old server was pretty much out of the question.

    Decomposey: lol

    Happy: Dreamwalker is easy, lol.

    Happy: after 2 attempts on sindragosa we got her to phase 3 (20% to boot before someone messes up). Though phase3 is like the other two phases on crack.

    Hilarious: watching the dps burn the ice tombs right after the third frost bolt.

    Weird happy: We found out that the original team had tried to sabotage us by taking all the rest of the good people for the third team because one of the officers doesn't want us beating him to the LK. As it stands, we'll probably get him first.
    You guys remember that druid I linked? He was originally on their team, as well as that MM hunter I talked about a few weeks before the druid was as well. This officer removed them and told us to take them because he was full and they were rotating people in and out to get gear. So we did, we were short two people that day so what the hell why not.

    A week later we start a third ICC team with alts and some mains that didn't make the cut. Great, awesome. The third ICC team got as far as we did and almost further. This had us going WTF. So we started cutting down on our lazy dps as it became clear we weren't beating soft/hard enrages properly. This works, we get rotface down but it turns out that it just wasn't enough. We had that hunter and druid go from 2300 dps to 4000 dps, but that's still really bad for ICC. We give them an ultimatum, read up on your classes and fix your issues or get removed from raid.

    Well, we had to remove them. The third team collapses. Not because of anything bad, but, because the officer is pissed that those two people got shifted to the weekend team and we took two good dps from them. Next week, we get putricide down on our first raid night that week. According to our "spy" he stopped talking in vent and dropped. He was incredibly pissed that we downed putricide. Cue to us getting both the blood council and BQL down, and he isn't even showing up for their raids anymore. He signed off last night before we healed dreamwalker and got sindragosa to 20%.

    He's also stopped showing up on time to 25 mans, and after deathwhisper he stealths right to the boat and waits for us to get there. Then he plays bejeweled when he dies or has to wait.

    so this is an officer in your guild acting like a pouty kid?

    why is he an officer?

    WTF: So I'm doing randoms on my (level 80) warlock last night, working on gearing him up. Get into a heroic AN. The tank is a bear (okay gear), and a priest wearing T10. The priest was most likely high or drunk, because he suggested going for the achievement on the first guy (Watch Him Die I think?).


    Bear goes for it, priest disconnects, natural wipe. We get back and the priest rezzes and says to try again. Bear goes for it again. We wipe again. Priest, then bear drop, and then the rest of the follows.

    The trick to holiday achievements is to do all the ones that require multiple people right away. And put off the ones you can do by yourself for a couple days, so you don't have competition.

    Argh that's the only thing I need for my TF. I should probably focus on the mace to keep my mind off of it.

    Yeah i want to say i have been trying for soooo long for both bindings but I really haven't. I have tried to solo baron a few times now but just this weekend decided to try it as ret since I finally have a ret offspec.

    I also got the blue protodrake out of UP and took it for a joyride up to storm peaks and got a polar bear mount from the daily.

    Hilarity: Was extremely worn out last night but managed to run a VoA 25.

    First there was not enough dps for it but we had some amazing healers so we managed to down Toravon with only a couple deaths.

    Korolon was ok, fight lasted a bit longer than it should've but it was ok.

    Emalon had a few tense moments but we got him down.

    First two adds before the boss, everyone split dps so the first add still had 125k health when he went boom, and my love for dispersion grew.

    Emalon is my favorite boss in VoA on my shadow priest, its a simple fight that requires people to switch targets and if no one figures that out well I won't be dying because of 4 other people who decided to not switch cause it hurtz my dpss

    Hate: Due to a power outage my computer went into a coma. Everything except the OS were working. The Windows7 repair utilities didn't help at all. So I decided to reformat. This was at 7pm. Now it's 10:20 and I have everything BUT WoW working. I have to reinstall because I moved it around to make space on my removable HDD.

    This is going to take all night.

    Haha, awesome.

    Anyway, here's my Hate: Farming Tanaris pirates/STV Venture Co for goblin rep is a terrible soulcrushing affair of killing the camp and waiting forever for them to respawn. Ratchet's pirates respawned so fast that sometimes they respawned while I was still actively killing them with Starfall and their respawns died as well. I never had to stop farming ever if I wanted to: I just put on a movie and mindlessly ran around hitting the 8 key over and over with a couple of 6s (Typhoon), 7s (Travel form), and 9s (Starfall) thrown in at specific points. The Venture Co goblins are super spread out to the point that it takes so long to kill them all (I have enough time to travel form between each goblin) that I only have to wait a minute or two for them to start respawning. The Tanaris pirates are all on top of each other so I can kill them super quick (one Starfall killed like 20 of 'em) but then I have to wait 5+ minutes for them to repop. I need to farm one of these or DM to get Ratchet to exalted at the very least, since then I could just go back to Ratchet for the rest of the goblin reps.

    Happy: Horde on my realm's finally started defending specifically against the Alliance's lame "spam seige tanks at the start of the match" strategy. This means we've been able to successfully defend a lot more since Manno Alliance is a bunch of dumbasses and can't rapidly change strategies. We've defended the last two times in a row. One thing that sucks about defending is that the gate stays up and so you lose the ability to fly in straight to the Violet portal.

    Happy: After not having a stable 10 man group for the last 2 months due to gquits, people leaving, and faction transferring, we've finally got Sindragosa down in 10 man, and will get to start working on Arthas.

    Happy #2: The gm and rl of this guild are serious about accountability, and people who didn't cut it on Sindragosa won't be coming along to see the Lich King.

    Hope: We get a couple more good recruits to round out our roster for 25s.

    I swear to fuck I want to strangle the paladin tank Numsei from Kel'thuzad. Bastard never blesses anyone, never stops for anything, pulls the first boss when everyone is literally OOM and struggling to drink for the few seconds they can spare (which leads to a five minute Bronjham fight, after which he treats us to a "Took long enough"), and chain-pulls the ghosts before the Devourer of Souls without thought or care as to how much health he or anyone else in the party has at that moment. It is a tiny miracle that we didn't wipe on Devourer.

    I swear if he had won the Arcane Loops of Anger that dropped I was going to go insane.

    It's lame because they do it without any interaction with the Horde at all. Just match starts, then a little bit later a chain of sieges comes rolling up. When our Horde attacks WG we go up and fight in front of the castle, killing other players for our rank ups rather than NPCs off in the middle of nowhere.
