Arthas, Pink Pigtails and Heroic Boners
So I have had a real jumbled up brain for the last little while, but last weekend we finally bagged Arthas on 10s. It was AMAZING. I won’t go into anything about the ending in case someone who does not want to be spoiled is reading this. I know I avoided spoilers like the Plague as the surprise was well worth it (aside from the one detail some jerk decided to tell me anyway).
I got my tax refund on Friday (with the addition of payday my bank account was quite happy) and am trying to decide if I want to put another hard drive in my desktop or buy Rock Band 2; I want to get myself one thing and put the rest towards bills/emergency funds. Is a tough decision. I have FF13 on order from Amazon though…we shall see.
I now have 5 80s, though I do not currently actively play Belltrine or Amynndra. I use them for crafting or horde-side spying now and then but that’s about it. Yandor is my little pink-pigtailed warlock who I have lots of fun running different instances and some raids with; she blows things up almost too well now, wherein the crit seedspam will often get her killed. It’s funny as hell though :p
Camendu (Cam en’du = Hand of Darkness in elvish) is my long-neglected and now 80 Death Knight. I was Unholy for the longest time, but recently, just before patch 3.3.3 hit I started trying dual wield Frost. It is a hell of a lot of fun. I originally meant to try and make her a tank but right now DPS is just too much of a blast. For now I DPS for tank gear and will work towards having the two suits.
Last night we spent about 3 hours wiping to heroic10 Marrowgar. It was not terrible, but a real challenge. We lost people repeatedly to Bone Storm, or they would get spiked during it and either get the storm, frost flame or all of the above. We tried a few ways of both spreading out and grouping up, and actually got to 4% I believe on our best attempt.
I admit I’m curious how other people do this fight on heroic, as even though we tried all kinds of things it still felt like we were missing something, and hell if I know what it is. I will say I miss having Kevlin around, not just because he likes to yell “BONER STORM!” when Marrowgar does Bone Storm…
