Oh Happy Day!

I am a happy bear. Last night was our typical Wednesday night trample through dungeons that the boss decides on, whatever they may be. In an excitement to reach Sapphiron again and pound his face shut, he decided we needed to travel into Naxx and down as much as we could.

After several disconnects, connection issues, non working vents, lag spikes, bad frame rates, dinners, and sick individuals, we got going. First up was the military quarter. It was perfect, we had the occasional bad pulls. And then the pulls where the rogue tried to sap and was seen and the hunter tried to trap and the tank didn't have enough rage so the mobs beat the squishies...but somehow we managed to only lose a couple and still down the pull. Yea...those. Had a couple of those last night.

Anywho, so those out of the way, we pounded through the military quarter and one shotted all the bosses. That took us an hour. Military Quarter down, onto the Plague quarter. Noth was a joke, as usual. Onto Heigan...the bane of our existence. Somehow, I managed not to go down last night. In fact, our first go at it, I was one of the last two up. Our first attempt was a fluke. We had some people get to close to the platform during the dancing phase and killed them off. Our second go around, was beautiful. I lived and we didn't lose too many. I'm just glad I can make it through the freakin thing without face planting now. And...I was rewarded for my success in dancing the night away.

Staff of the Plague Beast...

Oh sweet happy day! It is my lucky night! Of course I got the usual jabs of "hey look! a nice hunter staff" and the /rolls from the DK's who can't even use staves. Kroff forks (bahahahaha) over the staff and I swap it out. I already know from LootRank that this is an all around better staff, but I wanted to see exactly what it did for me equipped. More armor. Okay good. More dodge. Good good. Little less attack power. Ah, who cares about that anyway. My AP is already out the roof. Woo hoo! DE the old, in with the new! Kroff laughed at me when I said that and on we went.

We finished off the Plague Quarter no problems and cheered at our success.

Previously, Kroff had asked us to try and get the chest piece of each of our respective Frost resist sets. I had already done it since he and I talked about it and I decided to get my whole set. After doing the numbers I decided just to get the three pieces and leave it at that. I would lose a little armor and dodge, but I think the resist will make up for it. Besides, I can always swap stuff around til I find out what works best for tanking his big blue butt.

Everyone gathered up mats, chatted about the gear, and you could tell the air was full of hope for killing the dragon this coming up weekend.

It was a good night. :-)

Oh! And Noxxic finished off his Nobles Deck. Woo hoo! Now he's closer to getting me my deck. :-)
