Bah... updates updates!

After working our asses off and switching roles around a little, I am pleased to announce the death of the Blood Council!

We switched from a Warlock tank to Deathpaw (DK) tanking Prince Keleseth. It seemed to work very well and the following week we one-shot them .^^

We are having a bit of guild drama though. We've had two people leave the guild recently. Speaking with them further it seems it boils down to how we raid. From leadership to policies. I understand progression can be frustrating, but we have to stay together for the good of the guild. DP and I have been dismissing requests to join other, more progressed guilds. If other guildmates break under the stress of progression, we may lose more.

We currently run with 10 core raiders and no skilled temp raiders to fill the slots for tired or missing people. I have proposed several ideas to our raid leader, Spontain, and interim Guild Master, Archidamus... but... *sighs* At times I feel ignored, and so does DP. I long for the days where we seemed closer to the guild. I simply don't know what changed.

Well... Here's to hoping!!

Great news everybody! Wait... I forgot...

I'm such a bad tree... I'm sorry for the lack of updates.

So... We finally downed Professor Putricide, yay!

Thanks to my guild for sticking to it and finally getting that bastard down!

Andrew and I started running Saturday ICC 25-man PuGs. (Short for "Pick up Group") For the most part they've been pretty successful. We've downed four bosses without any issue, but have been having trouble downing the Plague Wing. We are going to be trying to down Festergut, Rotface, and Putricide on Monday. *crosses her fingers*

Now, for a rant.
I just recently read the Cataclysm Druid class changes and I'm pretty torn. I'm really happy about most of the changes. The one I'm upset about is the change to remove Tree of Life from a passive form, to a cooldown. This means I can only be a tree for a short time, most likely when I need burst healing. One of the reasons for the change was that they wanted Druids to be able to stop complaining about not showing off our armor... WTF? Just let us show off our Shoulderpads in forms! *sighs*

The only good part of this change is that I'll be showing off my sexy Worgen-ness a lot more. (They better have great casting animations!)
