So, apparently, there is less than a week left until the Mageroyal Syndicate takes on Magtheridion. It's kind of hard to tell, because there has been significantly less fanfare involved as compared to our Gruul run. Nobody's really talking about Mags, and there are only 10 or so signed up for the raid. Which, honestly, makes me wonder if it will go off.

Anyway, in preparation, I will likely be going about things in approximately the same manner as I did for Gruuls. Instead of an unstable...

I don't think epic gems are worth it. 160-200g for an extra three stamina is ridiculous.

That said, I'm considering upgrading my [item]Solid Star of Elune[/item]s to [item]Solid Empyrean Sapphire[/item]s. Why? For no other reason than to pimp out my toon as much as possible. Having 12 non-meta gem slots to fill with SES's, that would gain me 37.8 stamina (I don't really know how that rounds). Which is approximately another 378 health. I could then upgrade my [item]Clefthide Leg Armor[/item]...

As much as I'm all about content, I like to look at what upgrades might come from an instance. It's a fun exercise in determining what exactly is an upgrade for me, and also taking a look at what set a particular piece of gear might fit into. Now, we're only 3/6 in ZA at the current time, though we have another run scheduled for next Thursday. Hopefully we'll get Dragonhawk down, and take our first look at Hex Lord Malacrass. I know I'll be bringing my A-game (as well as a bunch of consumables)...

I guess it's just an update from the world of the Mageroyal Syndicate's main warrior tank.

Gruul's Lair

MRS is supposed to be going into Gruul's for the second time tonight. However, there are only 14 people signed up, and PuGging 11 probably isn't a good idea. I think we're going to see who's on, and who's interested, and then we'll go from there.

On one hand, there's a big chance we won't be going into Gruul's. I really enjoyed tanking HKM and Gruul, and I'd like to do

... because I haven't been tanking. Altaholism has taken hold, and I've been playing my Shaman, Iaria almost exclusively. In fact, the only times I've logged into Thireas in the past week were to do dailies (starting the fund for Iaria's epic mount), and to farm Scarlet Monastery for [item]Scarlet Chestpiece[/item].

Otherwise, I've been leveling the shammy and doing battlegrounds to get some nice mail gear. And the WSG epic leather bracers, because they're better than the mail ones....
