Today... Today... Another Today
Today I celebrate acquiring 2/5 Tier 5 upon getting my Tier 5 gloves. Some of you may find it odd, but this feels like my first real accomplishment in the history of this game gear-wise.
It represents the first set bonus I'm acquiring that I actually feel is unique and matters. It represents my raid's willingness to rise and succeed in completing a difficult challenge not once, but twice. But most of all, it represents moving on. Truly moving on. For I feel far more joy from acquiring this than I ever got from acquiring Thunderfury. Which is in part blamed on the terms I acquired TF, but the reality is that this item means so much more.
There's only joy associated with this one.
Appreciation and joy.
I hope you all get to feel this feeling, at least once.

What're the terms you acquired Thunderfury?! I'll probably only be more bitter if it's a "both bindings, one run" situation.Posted 01-08-2008 at 01:41 AM by Ciderhelm

I still haven't been able to snag a pair of those gloves. Congrats, man.

To make a long story short, I got both bindings within 3 weeks of each other, but didn't complete it until TBC (6 months later). Suffice to say the 4000g I got from 60-70 leveling helped a tonQuote:What're the terms you acquired Thunderfury?! I'll probably only be more bitter if it's a "both bindings, one run" situation.
But ya, I'm not in that guild anymore and these gloves really just represent progression and joy in a way that the TF I guess I always felt should have.Posted 01-08-2008 at 11:54 AM by veneretio
