Well, tonight we did the Full House achievement in our 10 man. Basically… what we did was burn down Lady Deathwhisper’s shield to about 5%. This allows us to quickly get into phase 2 once we have the desired adds. Then we sorted though the adds, killing the duplicates, and keeping the unique ones. Once we had [...]

Its been a slow week WoW wise. I have been doing my random every day like a good little druid. But being that it’s the week between Christmas and New Years, and a lot of people are out of town, nothing particularly exciting has been happening. I’ve been cleaning up stray achievements here and there. Apparently I [...]

As we all know, the rep in ICC works similar to Karazhan, in that you get a ring that keeps upgrading with each level of reputation earned. We start with this ring at friendly and end with this ring at exalted (if you are reading this on facebook or an RSS reader, those mouse-overs won’t work, try looking on [...]

Twas the week of Winter Vale
and all though the game
people were talking
about just one name
Twas Greatfather Winter
we all wanted to see
What would he leave us
under the Christmas Tree?
A gnome whispered to me:

More bag room would be nice
[...]

I didn’t do the daily heroic much. I guess I did when T9 first came out and I wanted badges, but as my ability to generate badges outgrew my need to spend them, I just stopped. I assume that will be the case with the daily random as well. Once we get a bit more of Icecrown Citadel opened [...]

With the changes to Gift of the Earthmother, we have to work a little harder to cap off our global cooldown (GCD). Having raided for a whole two days as not soft haste capped, I have to say… I needed a change. So…. in addition to obviously having GotEM, I now also have three click into Celestial Focus [...]

Well it’s been less than 24 hours since I first logged in to 3.3, but here are my early impressions
Icecrown Citadel- Ok I mentioned this last night, but I’ll just reiterate…. its sorta…. easy. Ok, I know that the hard mode won’t be as easy, and that’s great. But you know, when you can [...]

Well, that was easy. I was really hoping for a challenge, but… alas. I’d love to post about these four bosses right now, but I’m going to run 10 man and then the weekly raid But rest assured, I’ll post tomorrow. I’m bang-smack in the middle of the Wisconsin blizzard, so I’ll have nothing to [...]

When ToC first came out, I remember making a forum post saying that if I get nothing else, I really really really wanted Clemency. I’ve said before that I tend to prefer the stats on a staff over the slightly more healing you usually get from a main hand / off hand, but like the rest [...]
