A bad day

Posted 04-15-2008 at 08:17 AM by Melenkurion
Sunday... Kara... early evening...

The stage was stet for a fun filled evening with guildmates and friends. Moroes, Maiden and opera were the targets. We are still a begining raiding guild, so please bear with me.

But something was wrong. Wife was sick, kids were fighting... and when I say fighting I mean they were using everything from words to fists. How can a tank concentrate> How can a tank manage threat and facesmash the keyboard when every five minutes someone...

Prince Down

Posted 04-15-2008 at 05:03 AM by Bosk
We took down Prince Malachezzar for the first time last night. It was the 3rd or 4th go, and we'd lost DPS to not running from Shadow Nova when Enfeebled each time -.-

I'd been really looking forwards to tanking this when I planned to roll this warrior, and it was a lot of fun. But, boy, did I suck. I really started to lose my rotation rhythm when Phase 2 hit and basically started mashing things trying to key Shield Block up, debuff him and so on while dragging him away from the infernals...

Good Times

So, I pulled back a bit, and did my best to relax and put up with my situation. Ground a few levels on my paladin, hung with old friends. And I ended up having a bone tossed my way.

Sunday, I had a service call during raid time, so I let people know a day in advance I'd be gone. I hopped on and wished everyone luck, went about my business. I came back and got a few tells saying they wished I'd been there, that bloodboil was a disaster because we only had two warriors and a pally...

So, after some bad experiences on TK today (yesterday more like it lol) with my guild, mainly due to people not focusing and not taking the run seriously, i started doing some BG's fury spec'ed (17/44 with Piercing Howl, i know it's not the best PvE spec, but i make it work :P). And then i started to think: "Why not make a 3v3 as Kaz did, if it worked for him, why not me? ".

After a couple of minutes of watching my gear setup to maximize PvP stats, i started asking around....
Now i block stuns! :>

My 2nd: Introducitons!

Posted 04-14-2008 at 10:57 PM by Turkson
As mentioned in my previous entry, it's time for introductions!

I am Turkson, a paladin tank for a guild on Bronzebeard. You can armory to your heart's content, but I'm Ret for the moment.

I started playing WoW in March of 2006, and apart for a unavoidable 7 month hiatus, have played most everyday.

I have two 70's, Turkson and my fury warrior, Victria, also on Bronzebeard.

I recently was honorable discharged from the Marine Corps after...
