Iron council down / Mak a future Gnome??


I did get my new robe (as I mentioned I was on track to obtain it in the previous post). I also, obtained the emblem pants; Legwraps of the Master Conjurer.

I have to work pretty much all this week so I was only able to sign up for one raid for last night and it was for night 2 of the Ulduar 10. We only tried one boss(es)...that being the Iron Council. Basically, its three bosses in one encounter, and after many an attempt we were able to down them. No loot to speak of, Tony got a casting dagger that was a down-grade for me and Bert got some boots.

I am still building triumph emblems to attain the helm I desire: Helm of Clouded Sight (75 emblems is a lot though). My other possibility are the shoulders: Pauldrens of Reverend Morality (45 emblems). Then again, there are still some pretty cheap rings!


New 3rd expansion mentioned recently, Cataclysm. To be open in a year prolly. Among the changes...2 new races and class/combos. Considering making Makarios into a gnome...but that may be a stretch or a SHRINK?!?!

new 3.2 patch

well, we are well into a week of the new patch now and it appears that Emblems of Conquest are the new 'must haves'. Translation, every heroic in Northrend is chock-full of people farming them. I upgraded my neck piece this past week with 19 of them to obtain Evoker's Charm. It was a clear upgrade in that area. The next item, as I mentioned in the last post, is to upgrade my tattered ol' chestpiece. I am 10 emblems away from the needed 58! Looking at getting Conqueror's Robe of Sanctification.

In other news, we had the 1st ever meeting of guildies in the D.C. area. Had a great turnout...eventhough not all were there, it was a blessing to see the ones (and their families) that were there. Good times.

And, not sure if I mentioned it or not. I have dropped Disc again to have shadow as my off dps spec. I can still use the gear for pvp and be in healing im sure (or shadow). Plus, I have more versitility with playing this guy more either for dps or healing. There once was a thought to bring my horde priest over to alliance to be my dps priest and run with 2 priests...not a wise idea I have led myself to discover. I am working all this week in the evenings so no big raiding for me...
