Last night we did something a little different.. Almost .. “old school”.. Ok, well, if OS could be considered old school.. We went into OS 10 in our semi-pug and tried to do Sarth+3.. In a little different way.. We came in with 8 dps, 1 healer and 1 tank and tried to burn him down.. And we almost succeeded. 9%.. Once of the tries we got him to 9%. After being unable to do that we decided to try 2up and do it more of the normal way.. Well, that didn’t work out so well. So then 1 up.. Yeah, 1 up we could do. Anyway, I think with just a little more gear from the Ulduar runs we could really do it without too much of a problem (the burning him down thing). On a side note, I also got “dragged” through a couple of Heroics on my Mage. I say dragged because I was only doing around 1200dps on the first few, but I got better! I picked up a few drops including an epic belt from Heroic UP. I dual-specced a while ago and picked up FrostFire.. Still not completely certain what I am doing. I’ll have to spend some time on the web looking for which button to use when. Tonight I think we might be trying out hand at continuing the Ulduar run from tuesday. We still have Mimiron (sp?) and then General and Yogg.. We haven’t downed any of those, but I think this might be the week ol, “M” goes down! Have a good weekend and don’t forget the Twisted Nether LIVE Round Table tomorrow (Friday, Jul 4, 2009) afternoon at 3pm Eastern. I already talked about Midsummer Fire Festival being underway again. What I didn’t talk about is that over the weekend I ran my level 80 Mage, Fizz, around everywhere doing the keeper quests. I didn’t go out of my way to extinguish many horde flames, but I wanted to at least get all the Alliance ones in Azeroth and Outland. I did so and made about 500 gold or so doing them. I also bought myself the Spirit of Summer pet. I’m not that into doing achievements just for the sake of them, nor for the meta achievement (I’m so far behind, why try), so I had an ulterior motive and that was gold and the pet. The weekend also had it’s share of Raiding, but it wasn’t all that spectacular. I did get Fizz into an instance (Heroic: UP) with a friend. It was a pug run, but they forgave my mage his completely horrible DPS since it was pretty much a cakewalk anyway. He picked up the caster belt from the end boss in there too, which was nice. I also decided to run around Azeroth, etc. on my Death Knight to try to get a bunch of experience too.. Was I successful? Well, when I started I was level 58 (almost 59) and I ended just after I got to 60. I’d like to continue on until I run out of ones I can get to easily. Anyway, that is enough I think. More, easy levels.. I’m all for it. Tonight might be a restart of the 10man since the timer reset is today.. I suppose we’ll have to see… Two days, two raids, no loot. Tuesday night was our 1/2 guild Ulduar 10 run. We got through FL, Razorscale, Ignis, XT, IC, Kologarn, Thorim, Hodir and Freya that night.. (FL was on 2 towers up others were on “easy” mode) I think we did pretty well.. But, of course, absolutely nothing dropped for Fyra. The one thing that was remotely an upgrade for me (and not mail, plate or AP leather) I got outrolled on. Not that I didn’t have fun. I had a blast. The group is really good and lots of fun, but it is difficult to increase my DPS when I am unable to pick up any upgrades. Wednesday night we did 25.. Things didn’t go as swimmingly. We don’t have a regular group for the 25. We didn’t really have much problem with FL, but then again we did easy mode. I died in the first 5 seconds as I was, unfortunately, incorrectly shot up on to the tank.. Well, specifically, they missed… It was nice and relaxing though. Moving on to Razorscale. This fight went well in general. We pushed REALLY close (like 10 sec) to the enrage timer, but we still got it down. Ignis was our bane of the night. We just couldn’t get him down. Constantly getting to about 35% or so and failing. We even stopped and went to do XT and come back. In the end though, he was just too much for our group and we gave up vowing to be back on Sunday! Wish us lucK! Not sure what is going on tonight. I have company in from out of town starting tonight until Sunday, so my play time will be a bit more restricted. Maybe I’ll finally get my mage into some heroics or 10man naxx or something |
