OSN AUG 8th

Last night was Tuesday. In my guild that means OSN. What is OSN? Bah... Old School Night of Course! We had our best turn out yet with a full raid of 10 people at one point. We crushed UBRS and had several near wipes and one real wipe on the Tier 1.5 summoned boss. He still hits hard... It was loads of fun. At one point someone asked who was on heals... Heals... just kill things... we will deal with that later :P

Can I Has an Update Plz.....

I have made some changes. I changed the template as I wanted all the "stuff" to be on the right. I can not find the perfect template so expect this to change too. I have added a sitemeter count and a feedburner thing as it seems to be the current trend...

Do you like? Any suggestions on what can make it better? Feel free to comment, negative or positive of send me an e-mail.

D&D

I have not forgotten the D&D that I mentioned. I will be out of town until the end of August first of September and do not want to take the books with me. Upon my return I will check to make sure there is still interest and we shall proceed from there.

Pondering the Pox

I have been debating this idea for a while now. Not sure how to go about starting or even if it would really work out, but it seems like an awesome idea. When I first made Tsar, he was made in a group with this idea in mind. The group fell apart and most of our druids were abandoned.

I will give it some more thought. Have to find others in need of me, or willing to do it with me. I am thinking either a BE Paladin, Orc Hunter, or Undead Priest for tank, dps, or heals.

/sigh

Too many cool ideas out there.

I'm a Little Birdy too....

After 50 long years of waiting I finally got bird form on Tsar last night. What? I know that game has not been out that long. I know I am no where near 50. It just feels like it has been that long...

What did I do upon hitting 68...

I Clicked on Teleport : Moonglade.

Trained in my 4 new skills.

I then hopped on a bird to Thunder Bluff.

I checked the AH for the Badge of Tenacity... still no luck

I picked up a few things on the AH.

I flew to Shatt, turned to a bird and wasted the next 45 minutes....

Priceless

Time to Kill...

Recently my good man... err... Orc Ratters mentioned how he was bored one day and leveled his unarmed skill. Well... I have needed to do this for a while now. I finally broke down and did it last night while doing all the quests in the Ghostlands.



As soon as I pick another old zone to do quests in I will finish up Unarmed and work on my swords. Woot!

Realizations

I have been deluding myself. I have been one of those locks that have thought… “Most of my dps is from dots… therefore spell hit is a lesser stat.” Yes sir… That was me. I had lots of crit. I had lots of spl dmg. I had lots of mana regen, over 200 to be exact. Where was my spell hit? 89.

I have been reading around lately and had some spare gold so I started working on that issue. Most of my gear is geared towards damage so I am going with spell hit gems. I got some new enchants for my gear… and I am slowly working back towards that magic number of 220.

I realize this comes a little late in the game, with WotLK right around the corner and all… However, there are still plenty more Kara clears in store for me. There are lots more ZA runs. There are lots more runs where we as a guild try new content before it becomes “stale.”

My goal with the Druid is really just to get him to 70, and get him in Kara. I am not after gear… I just want to know that my Druid did Kara too. I have myself an “easy” to acquire gear list to get in the door. I want to tank with him, but would be fine as dps or even as a tree. I will see what the guild would prefer, although we have plenty.
