How to: The Gauntlet at Utgarde Pinnacle (Skadi)

April 1, 2009

For the past month our heroic group has been running Utgarde Pinnacle to help the tank get Red Sword of Courage to drop from King Ymiron, the final boss. Most of the runs were smooth except the annoying gauntlet part after the second boss. It seemed like no matter how many times we tried it, [...]

A Quick Update, and a Respec

March 26, 2009

Lately I’ve been a 5-man heroic junky.
A few months ago I pugged regular Halls of Lightning and wound up becoming in-game friends with the group. Almost every night since then we’ve done a heroic or two together. I’ve almost obtained the 250 Emblems of Heroism achievement. It’s such a relief to not have to worry [...]

How to Wipe on Elder Nadox in Heroic Old Kingdom

February 12, 2009

I’ve been running with the same warrior tank, and mage for the past two weeks. We’ve had some great dungeon runs together, including finally getting around to clearing heroic Halls of Lightning, but we’ve also been in a few complete disasters for groups.
This particular Old Kingdom run was of the “disaster” variety.
All of our problems [...]

Stepping Into Naxx

January 30, 2009

Earlier this week I queued LFG looking for a few heroics when I got a whisper asking if I’d like to heal for the final two bosses of 10-man Naxxramas. Now I hadn’t cared much about doing Naxx at that point, but it was a shot at 3 badges, and some decent loot, plus it [...]

PUG Life

January 30, 2009

Tonight I partook in two very successful PUG runs.
The first run wasn’t exactly a PUG since it was with the same tank that I ran with a few nights ago but the dps was from the LFG channel. I’ve honestly never run with a luckier player than this guy. Counting tonight, I’ve been on four [...]

I hate PUGs

January 29, 2009

I did heroic VoA for the first time tonight, and after three attempts we finally got Archavon down. The first two was the common problem about there not being enough dps and Arch enraging and wiping us. It’s about time that an encounter is based on the dps instead of just the healers and tanks.
Unfortunately [...]

My 2v2 Arena Team

January 20, 2009

I’m on a 2v2 arena team with my brother who is a hunter. Neither one of us have exceptional gear, nor are we very skilled in arena, but we enjoy the competitive nature and thus take a few hours a week and try our luck.
Our rating is a poor mid-1400’s, typically. Right now we’re sitting [...]

Priest Keybindings and Mods

January 16, 2009

Up until level 70 I used the mouse for everything…moving, turning, casting spells, targeting. At the time, it was comfortable and all that I knew. The only mod I used was KTM Threat Meter.
After a Kara run or two, I learned that something had to change. I would click a portrait, find the spell on [...]

The Sons of Hodir can Go to Hell

January 15, 2009

I am downright disgusted with the way that Blizzard decided to lay out the daily quests for the Sons of Hodir faction.
The Sons of Hodir are clan of frost giants located in north east Storm Peaks in a section called Dun Niffelem. After some long quest chains, players are finally able to complete daily quests [...]

Healing Heroic Violet Hold

January 14, 2009

Last night I was fishing in Ironforge while browsing the LookingforGroup channel in case something caught my attention. There was a warrior who had asked a few times, politely and in the right channel, if a healer would join his group for heroic Violet Hold.
I’ve healed HVH before, and although it’s stressful and I loathe [...]
