The Game is Afoot

So this past week I’ve finally managed to make it into ICC and down a few bosses! Included in that package was the ability to get the Ashen Verdict ring going which is very cool. I also finally managed to upgrade my cloak via frost emblems, hadn’t done that since Naxx, lol. With that I have definitely seen a vast dps improvement, which makes me happy. I don’t really care about topping the charts, so much as not weighing everyone else down.

-I hate Lord Marrowgar for the simple fact that the encounter makes my computer run like crap.
-Lady Deathwhisper was a piece of cake pretty much.
-The gunship battle is very cool and also seems really easy.
-Deathbringer Saurfang isn’t bad once you have a system down for dealing with the blood beasts.
-Sir Fart-a-lot (Festergut) went down eventually although we just barely beat the enrage timer, which unfortunately is an insta-wipe or we might have downed him earlier.
-Rotface is a fairly technical fight so we haven’t quite got it down yet.

We only made a couple attempts at the Blood Princes before everyone got massively confused, lol.

I did watch the Fall of the Lich King movie online, but I won’t spoil it here, suffice it to say it was pretty cool and I’ll be interested to see it in-game someday.

In other news, I plan on getting Vorya on a pvp team this arena season, just for kicks even, so we’ll see how that goes. I finally grinded up my hunter’s leatherworking so he can start on the Northrend patterns and continue leveling out there (he’s been stuck at 70 for a while now). I had a panic attack the other day when I thought I lost some heirloom items, only to find out they were just sitting in one of my toon’s mailbox. :) Everyone else is coming along slowly but surely still and I’m enjoying every minute of it!

So, what’s new with you?

Gold!

My big story this week is that I made about 1k gold in 2 days after spending it on dual-speccing my freshly 40 druid (woot). A couple days of abusing all 25 daily quests, random dungeon daily, then selling off all kinds of crap quickly restored the gold I had just spent. I almost didn’t believe it!

I find myself drooling over frost emblem gear and wondering what I should get first. It’s like being a kid in a candy store!

So then I was in an Ignis pug the other day, with a DK who was doing 1.3k dps (extremely low for those who didn’t know) being almost out-dps’d by the tank! (also a DK) Where do these people come from???
