200 Words – Practice Usually Gets Things Right
Great video games give you a sense of accomplishment. When you can accomplish something with a group of people, though, it’s even more satisfying. Our Naxxramas group started over with the Arachnid Quarter after the weekly reset. We cleared more in one night that we did in two nights last week! The group of people I play with are motivated, quick-learning individuals who like to have fun, but take what they’re doing seriously.
Before the raid began, I spent fifteen Emblems of Heroism on the Libram of Obstruction. This was an excellent upgrade for me since it increases my shield block value on every successful Judgment. I could definitely tell a difference working it in with my 96969 rotation.
We had a few issues starting out with Anub’Rekhan. I was silenced on two attempts because I was too close to him when he cast Plague Swarm. This ended up wiping the raid because I couldn’t control the Crypt Guard. Everything finally came together, though, and we got him down. We went on to one-shot the next four bosses and I picked up two new pieces of tanking gear: Gauntlets of the Master and Cloak of Armed Strife. Now for Loatheb!
Great run last night! I didn’t even die on Heigan until I did the dance several times. Looking forward to starting our learning on Loatheb and in the military quarter tonight.
Looking at the emblem items, there’s not a whole lot I want, except for upgrading both my neck piece and off-hand. Hopefully we’ll all get the tier items as drops after several runs through. I need to get my gems and enchants down. =-/
Let me know if I can help with any enchants (I’m at 431).
