Lately I have been one of those raiders that log into game on raid night and then logging out.
ICC has been giving me a headache.
…ugg
That is not quite correct.
Mini Rant
I have a mental issue with a raider or two.
My intolerance for people who state things that have already been said as a new discovery for them that they have not been doing the entire time … is extremely low. Their new discovery contributed to us wiping for 7 pulls. Amazingly it was addressed by someone prior to the first pull.
Listening is a skill.
I know it is not that bad. Something in their tone of voice and inflection of what they say is like nails on a chalkboard to me.
I think the thing that triggered me in dislike and completely ignoring one of them was hypocrisy.
I make mistakes. You make mistakes. We make mistakes ‘cause we are human. I make efforts to say when I don’t know something and will own up to my mistakes when I recognize them.
Sometime people think when I ask a lot of questions it is cause I don’t agree with them. Not the case most of the time. For me to know how to not to repeat the mistake I need to sometimes ask a couple of dozen questions.
One guy comes off as he knows everything and then doesn’t own up to when he F-ks up. Nothing looses any respect I have for a person than that.
And…Don’t get me started about loot whoring.

Raid 25 man
We have been messing with Sindragosa in 25s. We have a great first night with her this week. In the time of our 5 good pulls we are consistently getting to the last phase. The raid has the positioning of the flight phase down.
This is a fantastic thing to see.
In the last phase, people are getting over whelmed with balancing their debuffs and when to scrub them.
We will have it down soon. Then it will be off to kill the Lich King.
Raid 10 man
I have shuffled my feet enough I have gotten out of ALL OF THEM.
It is good for me to be a filler. I help in a couple of 10 mans if they need a person to fill in. Really I just cannot commit to running ICC forever. I know my limits. As it is I am not known for being “nice”. I don’t need to expose people to that all the time. It is good for my health and … theirs.
Wait.
Actually I am in a dedicated 10 man. Ulduar!!
For two hours on Saturdays we knock out 1-3 of the hard modes in Ulduar. Sometimes it takes an hour just to get the group filled. But we still get something done.
I still need
Firefighter and
I Love the Smell of Saronite in the Morning for my
Rusted Proto-Drake.
With another group I completed the
One Light in the Darkness for Yogg. I got really good at strafing in a backward circle for that fight.
I really hope we get it done before the achievement disappears. At least we are trying for it, which has been a load of fun.
Heroics
I have pretty much stopped doing the daily Heroics. I still don’t have my perky pug pet. I should really check to see how much farther I have to go with it. I’m sure it is not far.
Maybe I will get that knocked out. I just might finally get the Blue Drake.
