Spyrot’s Blog: Legendary

So the word of the week is… Legendary

This being my first progressive post is gonna be a lot more recent. This reset in wow I eventually had some time to do stuff… Started on Wednesday and cleared heroic again got no actual upgrades but hey it was fun. My lag and FPS issues are still causing major headaches, and I am sure Damsy is on his last nerve with me. Thursday started and ended off brutal for me as I once again had to sit out of the mythic progression due to PC issues and I had to hand over my spot… FFS

On Friday though I decided fuck it and started doing some world quests and a few mythic dungeons with some random guildies, had a lot of fun and got slightly drunk (yay). On Saturday I logged on super early as my wife had to work and my son would not let me sleep in, my IT mate and ISP pitched up and did a few psycho mumbo jumbo things on my PC and it seems stable.

I logged in just in time to join the fortnightly lunchtime normal raid… we killed a few boss really quickly and I think it was on Dragons that I got the elusive orange item boom Roots of Shaladrassil dropped, Damsy was salty and I sorta loved it. We cleared normal in the usual fashion with a wipe or 2 on Cenarius but it was worth it. (I GOT MY DAMN LEGENDARY). I logged off and had a well-deserved nap with my son.

Sunday Morning woke up did the 2 LFR’s, some world quests, farmed some herbs (sold them on the AH) made a few ‘K’ to pay for my super expensive raiding addiction. And then went out with my family to a braai (the rest of the world says BBQ) meh. The braai was actually at my best mate’s house (Seah the levelling shaman in the guild is his wife) and he joined the guild once again on two of his new alts (Venomdark and Sonofsuicide)… They are both rejoining the guild as they were both socials in The Dambusters when we were still on Xavius-EU. He is levelling on Grim Batol with hopes that the PVP lovers in the Dambusters, get together and can do some Arena’s/RBG’s together. (We can all hope)

When I got home I had another super nap, and when I woke up got on wow to test my legendary in a few more mythic dungeons and damn those heals are helpful, If I add the legendary passive heal, my exhilaration, the aspect of turtle heals and a healing potion/healthstone I actually do some half decent selfhealing. Just before bed time I grabbed a few guildies, and ran off to do a random heroic just for Artifact Power, it was fun and was just enough power to push me to 25 traits on my BM weapon which is one trait off my third and most powerful Golden Trait (Can’t wait). Level 26 though is 138k Artifact power and at level 9 Artifact knowledge (650%) it is still gonna be a bit of a struggle.

On Monday we went into Mythic progression with one mission in mind… Kill that confused bird/spider thing. We fought and fought changed the team bit by bit and armed with only 2 pots and 1 rune left we pulled the boss… First platform went well, second platform went ok and then third platform all hell broke loose. We lost 3 tanks, a few DPS and I can’t remember but I’m sure a healer or 2. We had to survive what felt like an eternity without tanks, the team went into super mode and we saw some amazing kiting from DPS, a resto druid shifting into bear form and I even threw my pet into growl mode, 38 seconds later that son of a spider-bird was dead. We celebrated, all got some EP and… well hoped for gear, to our frustration all that dropped were damn Artifact relics. After raid I went into Suramar got exalted by doing the leyline activation thingy and then logged off. (Didn’t sleep much as I was so excited that I was eventually able to be in the team for a Mythic Progression Boss)

And on a final note, I have taken this Friday off to start levelling my alt (I think I have made my decision)… It’s gonna be weird playing a purple melee…
