Live with the queue, embrace the awesome that follows.

That is all.

Sorry, doll, but 30-minute queues makes me very sadface, especially since I suffer from random disconnects (and an overall ****** connection from here to the EU logon servers).

YOU GET YOUR ******* PRIEST TALK OUT OF THIS THREAD!

But seriously, priest healing sounds like fun. I need to get the heirloom chest and mace and have some fun on my little level 16 priest.

I believe you bypass the queue after a random disconnect.

At least Aeth does.

I never disconnected yet while there was a queue.

â‚¬dit: Priest healing is amazing. Personally I'd say it's more fun than druid tanking, because I fail at that, terribly.

Priest healing is fun, easy to DPS as well.

Druid tanking is more fun IMO.

Also my DK just hit 80 today, after a stint as DW frost I got a sword from CoS. At first the DPS was lower but after some dummy time I was back to between 1.5k and 2k.

Way easier to DPS than cat rotation. Like the druid more for tanking though. DK will be strictly a DPS toon I think.

I'm still waiting for teacake to return to the druid boards since she made a new druid.

I don't even know what my problem is. I've been amazing at melee in earlier games but every time I try any form of it in WoW I'm so full of fail that I just give up after a while.

I've been away for a while and haven't been reading the thread, so /insert-appropriate-ghetto-greeting-here

Also I like the preistly bent of current conversation. My priest is only 34(?ish) but I'm loving my holy leveling spec that means I can also heal random groups.

All in all, how is everyone?

I'm the same. I can tank ok, because then I can move the mobs around myself, but I sit there in kitty smashing buttons and wondering why I'm not running out of energy....

Level 76!

Bear tanking is amazing. Not only do I not have to worry bout being crit immune, but in most instances I just spam swipe+maul on groups and fairefire+melee on singles and still have all the aggro. I have 18k health already and can chain pull all instances cus my personal Tree never runs out of mana. If only DPS weren't idiots.

It`s confirmed. I`m pretty stupid. I didn`t knew that I could buy T9 with only badges. After you fellow and smart druids point that out to me, I was able to grab my 2 t9 pieces.
In my defense, I was away for 3 or 4 months, so I was thinking that I needed the trophy to get it, like t7 and t8 tokens...

Woot! My Warlock hit 80 yesterday so I only have my 63 Warrior to go till I have an 80 of each class!

Oh - I really enjoy healing on my disc priest as well. Heroics are too easy for my druids gear, but the priest is a good challenge and gives that extra bit of satisfaction.

You do. You go back to the character select screen. Your account stays logged in to the servers for a while after you disconnect; something like 10-15 mins.

Horsemouth, I think you broke Ã†th's druid.

Either he is now harder to heal, or I suddenly fail at healing, or his threat generation is lower than before.

Or maybe we were just unlucky with grouping.

So, I finally reached Outland with my druid yesterday. Fun times, I tell you. Healing is so fun.

Except for the questing part... need more boom with my owl...

Oh, and you shall all worship King LidstrÃ¶m, will never forget his slapshot in the olympics.

He needs to drink more.

It will fix all problems druid related.

<---- Just had a college flashback

My buddy got vote-kicked from a herioc for having a GS of 3980, despite the fact he was 2nd in DPS and not dying. I dropped group myself. Wonder if they'd have kept him if they knew he healed Northrend beasts with the same GS? *sigh* It's certifiably stupid out there some times...

Anyway grabbed the Boomkin chest for my healy set and a new staff, 2 more frost emblems and I can finally replace Je'Tze's Bell. I'm finally starting to grab more throughput pieces. Now if I could only get a cloak to drop...

cloaks are a ***** to get right now, if you're ready to spend emblems of frost on a trinket, you may want to spend it on a cloak instead

Also, really glad I'm not drinking JÃ¤germeister anymore. I'll take my druid-juice in gin form, please!

Oooh, gin is lovely.

I have drunk very little over the last fortnight due to exams, and this morning I decided to take three days off to quit smoking* so drinking now would ruin everything.

*I didn't even take time off to quit heroin back in 2005, but the nicotine withdrawal is ******* killing me. Talk about subjectivity.

Ya here's the debate. I have 3 i200 level items I've been unable to upgrade: Je'Tze's Bell, Boots, and Wispcloak.

Either want to grab this or this, haven't decided yet... I really have liked Je'Tze's Bell, so replacing it with an improved version is attractive. It's probably going to give me more of a raw increase in the stats I care most about. But the wispcloak was only an incremental upgrade from the blue I had back in the day, and I'd really like to ditch the thing already. Plus the cloak has a nice yellow slot as well. Decisions decisions...

I drank gin for the holidays to help keep it classy.

Best idea I had for a while.

I don't know what it is about scotch, maybe its the fact they smoke the barrels with peat, I'm not sure. But every time I have it, I just imagine myself taking a burnt piece of firewood and rubbing it furiously on my tongue. Scotch is gross, yet I love whisky.

Odd hmm?
