Some resent acomplishments



Just an update on some of the resent acomplishments for Moralight, my main character a Healadin.

I've finally aquired the flying mount from the CoS timed run :D.

In Ulduar 10 with my guild I've gotten up to Hodir twice, killing him once so far, although we skipped Ignis the Furnace Master and The Assembly of Iron. I think the thinking behind my guild leaders is to get as further down as possible.

In Ulduar 25 we killed first boss with two towers up.

Pics coming soon (as soon as I get home)

Tired tank wants to DPS



I've decided to give up on tanking being my off spec. It seems that tanking is something you have to constantly do or you lose your skill. My recent tanking adventures with my paladin were disastrous. I would forget to put up the buff to increase my agro, mess up buttons etc... With more DPS being better and better geared, it's harder to keep agro.


So since I've not been tanking lately, only healing and playing with my alts my taking skills have been waining. So I've switched to retribution tree and now happily DPSing heroics and doing daily quests. Now the key is to build a dps set that is decent enough to do higher end raids. Tanking set is always easier simply because when doing raids there is a lot of tank gear for offspec once our tanks are geared. When it comes to DPS competition is much higher.

Still there is something very satisfying when you play with a melee class when your weapon hits and abilities hit with a cool sound and crit for tons of damage and your two shot a mob. Very satisfying! :)

Leveling Discipline Priest - Revisited



Well it has been a month since I last wrote. I've been lazy, even though there are plenty of things to blog about that are going on in WoW. One thing I do want to note today is about leveling your priest with a Discipline spec.

My long forgotten Troll Priest - Holybush has been collecting dust at a ripe level 38 for a while. Since I'm only raiding with my paladin, and my dear warlock is gathering dust, it's time to focuson a new alt.

Having all those extra left over badges and tokens Holy bush got a whole 3 pieces of heirloom loot for him. The PVE shoulders, the PVE robe as well as the PVP mace. While it is nice to have the gear, I've also tried to go shadow at level 40 after getting there with a Discipline spec. Well after I played with the shadow for a while I went right back to the discipline. Here is why:

Mana, mana mana. Mana regeneration is so fast with Discipline, just remember to put three points into the Spirit Tap and you almost never need to drink. With shadow I was doing a lot of damage but had to drink all the time.

You don't get hit. The bauble is amazing. You almost never get hit or take damage. As appose to shadow where you get beat up but regenerate all your life by end of the fight.

Holy Fire - I love this spell! This is my second favorite spell in the game after the shammy'schain heal. I love how now it has lower cast time and can be gliphed to go along with the smite.

Holy Shadow combo - This is a very strong point, you don't maximize either one but you have both available. Around level 40 there are tons of mobs who knock you and prevent you from casting in the same school of magic for like 6 seconds ( eternity). So having both schools available helps.

Well I think this is all I can think of. I'm going to keep leveling discipline for now and will see how well it goes.
