T5, at last!
Posted 08-12-2008 at 11:50 AM by Radhja
Well, finally got my T5 Shoulders last night from ol' Loot Reaver. Fought hard for this one too, cause the Prot Paly CO and I have been shooting challenges at each other for the past month, and VR was the perfect place for us to test our skills against one another.
The fight started off smoothly, with the MT quickly securing his dominance as I struggled to stay within 20% of his lead, waiting for the knockback to shift the aggro to me, but that damn paladin was chasing me a little to close for comfort. I was spamHStriking like no tomorrow and almost never emptied my rage bar until about 50%, but it was my turn for the knockback and the paladin took it over with his enormous spelldmg stats. I thought I'd lost at that point, but I had enough incoming pummel rage to quickly overpower his massive threat output and I tanked him down INTO THE ENRAGE TIMER with only 6-7 people standing. I was beaming, and the rest of <Eradication> was like *whoa*. lol
Wristbands of Determination dropped, and the Paladin ended up dumping 215 DKP on them (thanks to me, LOL), but I finally got my T5 Shoulders when I dropped the same DKP on the Defender's token.
To top off the night, I got Solarian's Sapphire for 20 dkp soon after. :P
THE PHAILBOAT SAILS ON!!!

| |  Grats on the shoulders. These definitely remain one of the most "exciting" prot item in all of TBC. Particularly before ZA was implemented, the T5 were the only threat-oriented shoulders out there and always were a must-have warrior item in my mind. Stats-wise they are still a bit better than the ZA shoulders, not to mention that they look way better. I'm still using them for a few BT bosses and all BT / Sunwell trash. |
