Greatest Night(s) Ever

So, I'm here at 3am writing because I love this game. The last two nights have been phenomenal... so a quick recap.

-Monday: Enduring 2 hours of frustrating wipes and near-misses to finally down Maiden after I make few important realizations: her consecrate doesn't really hurt and will break redemption on me... so Aquitane doesn't have to solo heal for 25 seconds or however long it is; if I create macros for dispell and then keymash 7-0, I can dispell holy fire from my assignments with ease.

After those realizations, we down her. Go figure--it was my fault.

-Tuesday... this was the best day to follow up the fun of Maiden.

1. Midday Halaa battle. Ally are dumb, don't take out the healer, I do about 50k healing in a short period of time, 40 halaa marks and 0 deaths later, I'm a happy camper and laughing at the dumb ally.

2. Dumb ally get dumber. I duel a 70 paladin at the Auchindon meeting stone. I don't have mana burn on any toolbar. (Whoops). I get the Pally under 10%, pally blows Lay on Hands. I was just like 'wow.' So now I have to kill the pally all over again while running out of mana.

Pally bubbles to heal. A third life bar. Guh.

At this point, I said 'fuck it' and used my Orgril'la healthstone and a cheap mana pot. I also feared after the bubble and used the time not to attack but to find mana burn and put it on my toolbar. It's a disc spell. Who knew?

Somewhere in there, I use shadowfiend to get mana back and get lucky and have inner focus crit for 5200.

I mana burn pally everytime she gets to around 10%. Pally only gets in a few heals, my dots are effective. Close to 8 minutes after the start of the duel, I wand the pally down to 8%, get shadow word death up at the right time and hit it for the win.

Yes, an epic, 8 minute duel... and the Pally blew both lay on hands and bubble... and still couldn't win. With me needing to find mana burn in my spellbook. Wow.

3. EZMode Shadow Labs clear--Druwyn is on the path to Kara! I do DPS. Group succeeds. World ends with holy priest being successful DPS. More at 11.

4. Heroic Slave Pens--Not satisfied with having done DPS in Shadow Labs, we get Aquitane to heal heroic Slave Pens. Aquitane succeeds in healing Hunk while I still find a way to do 16% DPS and only rarely go out of mana. Tigole destroys workstation after seeing that 4 good players can carry a holy priest smiting naga in a heroic.

Not only am I doing damage, but I'm talking baseball on vent for half of it. With Aquitane in the other room schooling me on baseball trivia. Guh.

We get to the end, Yurack replaces Aquitane, and I take over healing. If there's ever 2 things that could turn a group south to wipeland, those could be it.

I sleep through healing Hunk on Quagmirran and Yurack doesn't pull aggro! And then the lewtz. Oh, giggity giggity!

-Yurack takes the nether and makes Hunk his leet +36 (with gems) stam gun.

- Eviscerate gets Midnight Leggings (epicness. Hawtness).

- I get some +5hit/+6stam epic gem. (Now, for the mana-etched spaulders...)

Everyone gets badges of justice. A heroic is laid to waste with little to no difficulty, and we all go home happy.

And I go to Halaa and get 10 more marks for one death. L2AttackHealer Ally. Nubtards. And if you're a pally and duel me--I have 2 words: Bubble Hearth.
