First T5

Snowed again in St.Louis, about 10 inches of snow Monday night. Worked from home again on Tuesday and Wed. Havnt seen those damn kids yet and I have been watching pretty close, I have a yellow snowball ready for them. Little bastards have it coming, I might also steal their sleds just for the fun of it. Anyways… Tuesday night was Hydross, Lurker, Leo. Hydross and Lurker went down on 1 shots and the trash was quick. Leo turned out to be just as big of a pain in the ass as he was last week on our first kill. We wiped several times before he died. So far this is still the coolest 25 man boss I have ever been on. What makes him even cooler is that I picked up the T5 gloves off him. I did spend a good hunk of dkp but I figured I should chase after my first piece of T5, I kinda look at it as a milestone for my character. It was no where near the amount of dkp I would have spent last week though so it did pay off to wait a week. I’m still gunning for the shoulders this week but there is actually a few priests and druids who have more dkp than me now since I got the gloves so the shoulders may be a few raids off yet.

Last night we wanted to wrap up everything outstanding so that on Friday we can go learn Fathom-Lord Karathress and Saturday the plan is to kill Alar before VR. The GM said we arnt not doing VR this week unless Alar dies, so I guess that’s incentive alone to kill him so that people can continue to get their T5 shoulders. Last night was a nice organized mow of Tidewalker over to Mag, then onto to HKM and Gruul. I opted out after Mag because I was so freaking sleepy I couldn’t stand it, which probably ended up me losing out on about 160 dkp. HKM and Gruul are the quickest bosses to gain dkp, our system rewards extra dkp for 1 shots, and for no one in the raid dying. That usually happens on both bosses and they are both dead in about an hour but I just couldn’t stand to stay up any longer. I ended up with a dps helm off Mag that I really didn’t want but I took it so that it wasn’t disenchanted. I rarely do dps, and I also have my season 3 helm anyways but what the heck I guess, I ended up taking it for 25dkp which is nothing.

Tonight is a guild night off and my b-day so ill be hanging with the family and catching up on some sleep, before the mad wipe fest of Friday and Saturday. Now that I think about it I may actually miss a raid on Saturday because I might end up going out with my friends that night gambling or something since several of us have b-days around the same time. Possibly no cool Alar kill for me >< Hopefully tomorrow night I will get to see a fathom-lord kill.
