Rinse and Repeat

More heroics tonight and more to come tomorrow.
Raid leader informed me that he wants to run me through whatever heroics I need to up my gear.

Shouldn't be too bad, the gear that I can upgrade comes from Lost City, Halls and Throne...

Until my next post...

Quick update

There was no cata raid this past weekend... although we do have the numbers for a 10-man group with back-ups, just need to make sure we have the right raid composition.

All is not lost, Lindsay got her Kingslayer title on Friday night I think.  I ran a few heroics over the weekend and I was able to get Of the Nightfall title last night...  let me tell you that clearing the trash took longer.

More heroics during the week and I'll be going into ICC on Friday night to get my Kingslayer title.

Until my next post...

Another great night

It was another good night for WoW.  Logged on to do the random heroic, was going as dps but ended up healing.  It has been some time since I healed on Puka and let me just say I had fun. 

It was confirmed tonight that I'll be healing in raids, I am looking forward to the challenges.

Until my next post.... wish me luck tomorrow night in our first raid.

Oh the fun times

Last night we did the "weekly raid" from Wrath just to get the quick JP's.  It was the first boss in the spider wing in Naxx. . . lets just say it took us longer getting there then it was to kill it, all of 40 secs to earn 130 JP.

After that 5 of us decided to queue up for a random heroic and got GB.  I went in as boomkin, it went very well and quick... no drops for me but I did get my helm with the JP I got from there.

My current GS as Resto is 344, and I was informed that I will be healing this Friday in our first raid.  I think tonight I'll run as much heroics as I can to see if there's anything else I can upgrade.  I want this run to go smoothly for me instead of stressing out.

Let me say this again, everyone in our guild has been great.  The over-all experience has been nothing short of wonderful.

Once I start raiding, I'll be posting more on a regular basis.

Until my next post....

Guild Meeting

We (my wife, skru and I) attended our first guild meeting with KotC.
It was cool, the GM intro herself and her style, what the guild is about and what is expected.
The two types of raiding they have done in the past and will try to continue with this expac.
I've got to be honest, I was little bored but it should be stuff a person knows... but it was refreshing that it was said in vent where EVERYONE who attended could hear it.  There were jokes made of one another but the over-all feeling is good for me. 
The 3 of us expressed our interested in raiding, if we're not selected we'll be selected as an alt at first.
The primary group will be selected by the RL with some reserves incase somebody does show up.  They're the team that will push through the content.
There will be another team does Wrath content and achievements in regular and hardmode with a little dabbling into current content.  To be honest, it doesn't matter which group I'm with it just seems to be a lot of fun with them.

Until my next post...

KotC

Let me tell you, our new home has been refreshing to say the least!
There's always someone on and there's always somebody willing to run either a regular or heroic.

I'm not a person to ask for help, I don't mind sitting in queue while I farm mines and flowers.
But with this guild, there's officers and guildmembers asking and wanting people to do regulars and heroics.
I've seen many times when those people are playing an alt and someone ask in chat if anyone in guild is interested in doing a heroic, there's multiple people asking what is needed and a person or two will come on their main or one of their many alts.

The guild will be holding a meeting tomorrow night to find out who's interested in raiding and determine if it'll be 10 or 25-man composition.  It will also be decided what nights and times the raid will be on. 
I had a good discussion with one of the officers this weekend.  Basically he's been take time out of his game play to help others obtain the gear needed to raid.  He and other members takes the time to help others who are nervous, new or whatever it may be to get comfortable with the new game play.  They have an understanding that a raid group is a team and team members help one another out... something refreshing from another guild that I won't mention.  They're also willing to help farm mats for crafting epic gear to those mains that is interested in raiding.

Over the weekend, I've done several heroics as a boomkin.  My gear and dps is there for 10-man content but I'm still not 100% satisfy with my healing ability on him.  I also have been gearing up my holy pally, which I'm a little more comfortable healing with.  After the meeting tomorrow night, I'll decided what spec my druid will play.

Until my next post....

Update

Sorry for the absence, seems like it's happening more than I thought it would.

After the incident with MotD, we joined an alt-guild with some of the members from MotD.
Unfortunately due to bad timing, several people were not logging in due to RL situations.

A couple of nights ago, myself, my wife and Skru found a new home.  I think this will be a good fit, minus the "family."  It was a decision that was made with the 3 of us and what we wanted out of the game.  We also had the blessings from our former guild-members which meant a lot.

While we are enjoying our new-found friends, I do miss the "family" but I'm sure we'll keep in touch and hopefully when they all return back to the game they'll decide to join up with us.

I got my pally up to 85 last night and I'll start running regular instances to get him ready for heroics.  Puka is not on the shelf just yet... I just want to have another type of healer for situational purposes.

Until my next post.....

Quick Update

Just a quick update on what's been going on...

I'm no longer part of the MotD, actually A LOT of people are no longer part of the guild.  I won't go into details but I'll say that the GM's would take one person word on guild matter vs the masses, then something is wrong.

Those that were kicked out of the guild and have left due to the situation have made a new home.  It's just too bad we have to start at level 1 again, at least we're all playing together.

Been busy with real life stuff, hopefully everything has settled down and we can get back into the routine of the game.  Hopefully we'll be raiding soon, there's only 2 or 3 people in the guild that needs some gear and we'll be ready to go.

Until my nex post..

Finishing up

I finished up the quest line in TH and I'm off to Vash.

Awaiting for the merc ship.

For some strange reason, I enjoyed this part...


This was bugged for me, as you can see I was in boomkin form and never completed the quest.  So I had to drop the quest and start it over in SW.  This time I stayed in my NE form.

Until my next post....
