Post Your Successes!

This thread is a ripoff from MainTankadin.

However, it's a good idea. So it doesn't matter. Basically what this thread is about is posting your successes.

Basically this is where you ePeen about downing a boss for the first time, getting a new piece of gear, doing an SV clear in 30mins, whatever. If you're proud about doing something, tell us about it.

Use which tanks are available, confident, prepared, and understand what they're doing and know their weaknesses.

Two nights ago we downed prince - not for the first time, but before it I said to our RL - "are you sure Prince is a good option" - the group was a little inexperienced in late Kara and in general was undergeared for prince plus our group makeup was just plain weird:

3 warriors (me as MT, 2 dps)
4 pallys (3 holy, 1 prot - who helped heal on prince)
1 rogue
2 warlocks

The dps was a little low and we lost two melee fairly early on and the other one later on to the infernals. 12minutes later he was down, I'd taken 860k damage (over twice what I had the previous week) and my superb healers had kept me up, despite me having to stand in a couple of infernals.

I'm proud of our dps, our healers and just a little impressed that without druid or priest buffs I had the hp to survive

PS. I love decapitator for pulling

- Clearing every boss in Karazhan for the first time last week.
- Topping the damage meter in a PUG without pulling aggro and dying (it wasn't hard because I did outgear the other DPS) and having the group compliment me, telling me that I was the first good DPS warrior they'd seen. That made me smile =)

Killed 2nd time Archimonde and Gurtogg.
I had no hopes because our First Kills were something totally oposed from flawless.
I also outrolled the GM on Kaz'rogal shield. A nice addition but I was expecting to get first Illidan shield :S

Having the 1st T5 Shoulders on the server was a good feeling, but i dont think anything beats the 1st kill of Cthun for me, not sure if it was the people, the time, or the kill, but that will always stick in my head.

Getting [Quel'Serrar] Will always be a high point for me

The story goes like this, Pre tbc I wasn't an End game tank, I grinded for 5 months for the book and they day it dropped from the LAST dusty tome in DM The squeals of delight on TS were almost defeaning.

But the One thing I remember most was doing Ony for the first time, I went with a more experienced guild who had agreed to take me on there very last Ony kill before they gave up on her to concentrate on AQ and Naxx, And they let me MT her. I was horrible, My tps was too low but we got her down wasily, I got My sword and an 18 slot bag for my troubles(i think i thanked them way too much, and the GL said if the warth helm dropped I would have had it as well)

It still ranks as the best day I ever had playing this game, because the pure effort I put into getting that sword was well worth it in the end.

Downing prince is always going to the highlight for me. At that time I still had a lot of questions in my mind if I was really a viable choice as a Paladin. Prince laying on the ground sent me a clear answer.
