Up in Flames

Perhaps I should go outside some more?

Warcraft : Firelands is an odd one. It’s a content patch, but it’s triggered the expansion blues in a lot of people…”oh no, more points to grind, and more gear to acquire”. I’ve started slowly, and poked about at it. I’ve not been doing the new daily quests with any enthusiasm, but have enjoyed the raid content thus far. Maybe a little too much random in some things, but we’ll get there

In order to get raids off the ground, I dusted off my DK’s tanking spec the other evening and, after some hasty regearing, gemming and enchanting, spent a fun evening as 2nd tank. We didn’t kill anything bar trash, however we did a good go at 2 bosses. A few wipes on the spider were clearly my fault, falling in holes, but other than that and stressing my healer a bit, I seemed ok

Two of our 4 tanks have drifted away leaving us with a little shorthanded, especially as on of those spends quite a lot of time over in the Americas unable to join us. This has meant the inevitable…

I’m now Tank / dps instead of DPS / tank. It’s a learning curve, but it’s actually been aided by the other change, you see one of the exiting tanks was also the guild GM so it now falls to me to ensure folk are entertained. No pressure

It’s going ok though, leading a guild, leading raids and managing. I guess we’ll see how it goes when we get to 4.3 and the Deathwing fights. Hopefully I’ll be fully geared up by then

It’s all good fun
