Melvin's ret pally is more or less geared. So Melvin refuses to play him anymore. On raid night what should show up but Melvin's elemental shammy? Still decked out in level 70 gear!I'm still kicking myself for not dropping the party immediately. To add to the drama, we had two other dps doin sub-1300 dps.
And I got talked into playing my resto shammy. And the raid leader is an idiot. He's playing a geared holy pal. We have my shammy, about as well geared as 10 man naxx will get you. And we have a disc priest... the wife of a tank, and not... um.... terribly skilled. Which is to say, when doin saph, we need someone to keep an eye on her, and keep her healed. Cuz she can't heal herself and someone else through the aoe damage.
(last wipe on saph, she dies from the cleave.)
So raid leader sets healing assignments... My resto shammy on main tank... his holy pal on offtank. And disc priest on raid healing.

God, I wanna gank Melvin in RL. And then camp his sorry ass. Friggin 1100 dps. An hour in, I had to ask why he was using flametongue instead of totem of wrath. (he was using both... and of course casting wrath first)
We had the annoying mage (1300dps) who couldn't even be bothered to decurse himself through Saph, let alone the people on his side. (why is he annoying? He NEVER SHUTS UP in vent. Of course, he did warn us that the blizz in saph "always stays on the side the melee is on, so the melee probably should switch sides...")
So, I took Mabd, my much neglected hunter for a spin last weekend. Ended up running UK, OK, AN and VH. Top dps each run. End boss of AN, I just put monkey on aggressive, and he beat every one else in the raid (including myself) in damage. Damn, thats just too much fun. Ended up main tanking UK (mabd is 75, dk was 70 and had wrong rune to boot) with banana boy.
Every so often you need to strut the old stuff in pugs. We all need recognition...
And a haiku? Dammit all to hell. Things change, eh?
The mighty hunter
Awakens from raid winter to
Red headed flower.
Good luck Daniel. A word of warning... its much easier to stop playing than to stop blogging...

My brother and I had to say something to a fellow guildy and RL friend. He thought he would use the guild Naxx runs to gear all his 70 pvp geared alts. I have no problem with people bring alts. But I'm sure as hell not gearing it for you if you can't even be bothered to do heroics first.
Do you make an effort to go on Heroics with him?
As much as I can I do.
And he could not stop blogging.
Not sure if you have checked out his new site...
Hmmm, apparently blogger auto appends the blogger url to links?
BRK's new site is www.dphowell.com not the crap that blogger posted in my first comment.
