It took us a week longer than we though for everyone to get back online and get us back in there, so scratch the first week of January off the list.

The following week, between attendance issues and people remembering how to raid, we didn't get to Vashj until the final night of our raiding week. We got 2 or 3 attempts in and everyone got to see the basic premise of the fight.

The third week we completely forgot how to raid the first night and struggled to kill *anything*. Second night the server crashed halfway through our raid time. Third night Vent crashed and we lost over an hour trying to find alternate means of communication. We got some good solid attempts in on the final raid night and got 3 power cores completed.

So now it is the last week of January. We got Hydross, Lurker, and Leo on the first night, and FLK and Tidewalker the next night. I was pretty excited when I logged in tonight that we were going to have two full nights dedicated just to Vashj.

I form the raid, step inside SSC, and get the loading screen of doom. Raid instance server is down. *sigh*

We mull around for 1/2 an hour before we decide to go raid Stormwind. Since every other raiding guild on the server is similarly bored, we run into a full room of Alliance and get lagged to death.

Another 1/2 hour of figuring out what we're going to do passes, and we get the "Server shutdown: 15 mins" message.

It's been at least an hour now, and it's still down. There will be no raiding tonight.

Hopefully tomorrow we'll be able to get in there and have a full night of attempts on Vashj, but it just makes me so frustrated that her kill is probably going to get put off yet another week. ]]> Celuna http://www.tankspot.com/forums/blogs/celuna/256-frustrations.html http://www.tankspot.com/forums/blogs/celuna/245-obligatory-introduction.html Sat, 26 Jan 2008 07:25:30 GMT With the recent increase in leveling speed, I decided to drag out my warrior alt and give her a workout. In the process I remembered why I loved warriors so much.

I played a tauren warrior in beta. I believe I got her up to 51 or 52 before the beta ended. I still mourn for the decision to kill plainstriding. It was my favorite thing in the game at the time.

When retail came around I ended up rolling a shaman. Then a rogue. Then a priest.... well, you get the picture. Lots of sub-40 alts.

When they opened up the first RP-PVP servers I was there first day on Twisting Nether. I decided on a rogue and she became my main. My rogue was in full Tier 2, had downed 4 bosses in Naxx, and had gotten as far as Battleguard Sartura in AQ40 when TBC arrived.

Well, being in a raiding guild, and paladins being so...useful...I decided to sacrifice and roll a belf for the good of the guild. Everyone kind of laughed at the idea that a rogue would stick with a healing class, but I did.

So right now my main is a Healadin. We're very close to downing Vashj as far as progression goes.

I was told to check out this site by a friend warrior, and I've been trying to slurp up as much of the awesome information here as my brain can handle for the last couple of weeks. I've been really impressed with the maturity and the open sharing of information here, so I decided to go ahead and set up a blog.

I suspect it'll be 1/2 experiences on getting my level 60 warrior to 70 and 1/2 experiences from my healadin/guild officer POV.

Flip a coin, my blog will either be about me being a nub warrior, or me waxing philosophical on herding cats. ]]> Celuna http://www.tankspot.com/forums/blogs/celuna/245-obligatory-introduction.html
