Quick Note

I have been in game a little bit this week. Just trying to take it all in. I haven't even logged in on my pally yet. Only my Boomkin is fully gemmed, talented, glyphed, regemmed and reforged. I am not sure all of those are exactly the way I want them and I have to get new boot made because a while back I had the cloth boots made and now with Leather Specialization I am missing out on that boost, but without really knowing what I was doing I dropped almost 10k on Raz in the weekly. I think once I get my rotation down well I will really be blowing stuff up big time. I have logged onto my shammy, mage, hunter, and priest as well and am in the process of getting them ready to do stuff but I haven't even logged into my pally, warrior, dk, or warlock. The warlocks and pallys in guild have not been very happy about there toons so I have been a little tentative. I don't play my warrior or dk much so no hurry there lol. I have plusses and minuses on the new things but I'm not ready to get real in depth with it I will just leave you with two thoughts.

XP from herbing, I kind of like it but in a way it feels like a bit too much I'm not sure how I feel about it yet.
I am a huge fan of reforging. I think it might be a little too cheap cause for 10 gold that is a no brainer, and I kind of thought it would be something that you would need to work for but I'm not gonna complain because it is working out great for me :)
Thats all for now
K Out!

OK tonight we go into Icecrown

Well I know we were going to go Tuesday but that didn't work out with the servers not being friendly to everyone. I am in the Midwest and have been dealing with the blizzard here so I didn't have work yesterday and got to play a lot more WOW than normal. I have gotten into the new 5 mans and I like them but as a tank I think there are way to many casters (We may unretire crowd control on a couple of pulls). I also think they may get a little tedious with the monologues but other than that some fun and interesting fights. I am pretty happy with everything I've seen from the new patch I even got rid of some of my addons (mainly Cartographer and Questhelper) because now the game covers what I wanted from them. I didn't really have any issues with my other addons although I did have to adjust some of my game settings which was weird why was my camera control changed and my loot window location was different too, just kind of odd. So anyways tonight we are going to go into ICC and take our first shot at the new raid. I have watched the vids and read the strats and I feel like we are going to do great. I am really looking forward to it. I hope everyone else is having as much fun as I am with all the new stuff.

I'm on

I finally got to log on. Now I can check out some of the new stuff :)

Looks like I'll be tanking Lord Marrowgar tonight!!

Well as long as the servers are up anyways :). I am hopeful though and I have been doing my research and I think I am ready for the fight. As long as we can work together I think we stand a good chance at taking him down. I do want to try out the new 5mans too sometime soon so if the raid doesn't work out maybe we'll jump in those. Also have to do the random dungeon daily and find out what the raid weekly quest is. Wow there is a lot of stuff to do. I am really looking forward to this and I think we are going to have a blast tonight. I hope everyone else is as excited as I am to try out all the new stuff and good luck on whatever you are working on.

Question: If the patch is next week what do we do?

Now I am not in charge of our guild (thankfully, Swan is way better at it than I would be) so its not my decision to make, but I am curious as to what you think our guild should do if ICC comes out next week. We are not a hardcore guild but we do have a regular raiding schedule and we do a pretty good job for where we are in my opinion. We haven't killed Yogg yet (in fact we are still working on the keepers) and we got, I think the word is roflstomped, by Faction Champs the one time we went to the big room of raiding. Now I am a big fan of Ulduar actually (except Ignis that fight is dumb in my opinion), and I would like to finish it out, but it would be cool to be raiding the actual current raid tier with everyone else, as I have never had a chance to really do that before in game. We do have some well geared quality members in our guild and raid team and I think I do pretty good job as a tank so I think we could actually put in some legitimate attempts on the new raid almost right away, especially since everything will be dropping triumph badges and everyone in your raid can be in tier9 gear in a week or two with a little heroic grinding, and the crazy new gear out of the new 5mans. For me, honestly I am good either way because I just want to kill bosses and have fun with my guild. There aare a couple ways of going about it that seem to make the most sense to me. The new gear will help us push through what we are working on now even faster, and would give us all good feelings of moving through content or we could try bashing our head against the new raid for a couple hours a week and fall back to other stuff if that doesn't work out. So faithful viewers what do you think we should do? Either way I will defer to our fearless leader I was just curious of your opinion

Yes I'm happy about the pally changes, Even better though...

Inner Fire: Now lasts 30 min and is undispellable.

Thank You Blizz,for fixing the most annoying buff since five min blessings. Especially since this buffs spellpower now I need to keep it up at all times and I am horrible at remembering to buff myself(I use palareminder to yell at me about buffs, Is there a mod like that for priests?) I almost never forget to buff others in my group but me I constantly forget, oh well.

Also,

30 MIN SEALS!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry, couldn't help myself hahaha
