As you can see, my 2v2 team lacked arena points to purchase these items.

Got a head piece tough.

The rest is being laid out right now in preparation for tomorrow's game. There's my helm. There's my chest piece. And you can see my 2H. Not exactly going to be able to survive Illidan but I do have a good deal of padding and protection.

You can see my two Tabards there too. I switch them depending on the team I'm on (dark jerseys vs white jerseys).

I hope I'm prepared. This sore throat isn't going to do me any favours. How am I supposed to challenging shout if my throat is hoarse?

We don't know what they do. If we don't break them out of their Ice blocks before the first flash freeze, they die.

Instead of watching for stuff in the ground, you're watching for stuff in air. Snow that is falling is an indicator of a falling chunk of ice.

Hodir's got 10 million health. Attacks are frost based.

Keristraza on crack. Keep moving. JUMPING does not appear to work to dispel.

There is a frost nova. Dispellable.

After ~45 seconds, players are flash freezed (ice block). Cannot be dispelled. You can avoid Flash Freeze by hiding behind the two Frost anvils in the room. Didn't find that out though. Feel free to dissect the boss abilities away. I tried to mouse over on as many debuffs as I could.

Will add more to my blog tomorrow. Going back in after Naxx.

Looks very purty! Seems to be one of the rooms. Still trying to get in. Getting knocked out. I'm guessing I may not get the chance to do anything tonight before my actual raid goes through.

Look at all them drakes! Its really  freakin' laggy right now. People are crashing left and right. I've been able to scramble a few players to jump in with me.

Disc Priest
Death Knight
Holy Paladin
Ret Paladin
Mage
Warlock
Prot Warrior
Elemental Shaman
Shadow Priest

Tip: Xfer and test on the PvP server. Way less population than the PvE one.

I use a 4 x 4 ad block on the side of my blog. The service I use for that segment is known as Project Wonderful. It's an ad auctioning service where an advertiser can "bid" on a space on the blog.

Money's slowly been trickling in, but this is how much I've made to date so far with just that unit.

How can I Improve That? http://matticus.posterous.com/5-dps-under-1000-on-kiljaden-h http://matticus.posterous.com/5-dps-under-1000-on-kiljaden-h

Maeve is a Feral tank, and Lang is our main tank.

3 Warlocks, a Boomkin, and a Shadow Priest under 1000. I think I'll see if I can get our Locks to switch to Felguard spec. That should hopefully give a notable improvement. Zefra's a Resto Druid by nature who went Boomkin for this fight. Regrettably, his DPS gear is not up to par with his resto gear. I'm debating either benching him or having him come on another pure DPS class that he has (maybe a mage). Dig's the Shadow Priest. He's probably losing DPS to DPSing the orbs. I may just keep him on KJ the whole time.

Mad props to Caim though. He's consistently near the top and he's controlling Orbs to boot. Unless the Orb dragons have a DPS thing.

The trouble right now is that we're a mid to high level guild. The best players are already at the top. The ones below us aren't good enough in terms of skill or aren't good enough based on what the encounter expects of them. We've gradually lost DPS players over the last few months and we haven't been able to replace or infuse our roster with more.

So I decided to give in. After raiding with half broken addons (and downing Kalecgos and Brut to boot), I got frustrated without being able to see Guild chat. Couldn't bid so I had to openly yell out what I wanted to invest.

Which is kinda neat cause I set the floor for the bidding :D.

The UI I'm using now is called Spartan UI. Also slapped in Omen. And you can see SCT there as wel. Other then that, nothing else.

You can grab Spartan UI here:
