The legendary staff questline and the miniboss. Here you see our mage, Medahni, building the intermediate staff as part of the questline for the legendary. Soundtrack is “Creation” by Electric Skychurch.
In the second stage of the event, our rogue Mikayshen somehow lost his rooted debuff and the boss blew him halfway across the zone. He didn’t manage to make it back before we finished the encounter. It’s over pretty fast and shouldn’t give your raid any trouble.
This was our first night of two nights of raiding this week with me as the raid leader. Our usual lead & bear tank is on vacation, so I had to break out the rusty “heroism now!” skills. I feel good about the week overall because we did 5/7 plus the miniboss plus Baradin Hold on the first night, then Majordomo & Ragnaros on the second night. That left us plenty of time to start ripping through Tier 6 raids in search of set tokens for future transmogrification. However, I think my main demonstration of skill as raid leader was simply getting out of the way of my raiders and letting them do their thing.
The success in the week does make me worried about one thing, though. We’ll be going 7/7 in one night very soon. Perhaps as soon as next week. Yet our first whack at heroic Shannox told me we’re not geared for it yet. Maybe we’ll just have to start trying to solve that puzzle even though I worry about our gear.
Note to self: I need to farm up a month’s worth of cauldron mats before Monday. Oh dear. Also, Leafie probably has the valor to buy two tier pieces now, and should do so to get her 2-piece bonus.
