PvE

Raid Experience:

Pre-BC Durus Vir cleared MC/BWL and AQ40 up to Twin Emps. In Naxx we cleared Spider wing and Instructor.

In BC, I previously raided on my pally(Freakshow) and warlock(Rockhound) doing SSC and VR/ Alar in TK before retiring from raiding for the past 8 months. The guild I'm currently in was in need of a resto shaman, and I was glad to help out, which I finished lvl'ing up about a month ago and was working on what gear I could grab from Kara and any other place I could get a group.

I have been to MH/ BT a handful of times when the main raid was in a pinch and asked me to respec and come heal(I am normally enhancement to farm my own mats and whatnot). Recently though, the guild stopped doing a secondary raid and merged them together, and I was one of the first healers left out with little opportunity to be a regular raider, even though BT/ MH(with the possible exception of Archimonde) are on farm status.

While I don't hold any hard feelings, I can't help but to feel somewhat slighted by the situation, considering the time and effort I put into lvling a toon to help benefit the guild's raid progression.

Freakshow (not verified) — Sun, 06/22/2008 - 15:35

I'll be around some Sunday and Monday, but for sure starting Tuesday. FInally got to talk to my Dad and he's doing good thus far, so for now, it's on the up and up. If you see me online, feel free to say hi.

Thanks, ~Freak

Those of you that remember

Those of you that remember me from Gorgonnash days would do so as Mariah, formerly of Durus Vir (previously know as Shattered Star). I now reside on Azgalor, where I am Maegan of the Social Butterflies.

Freakshow would most likely be raiding with us had his timing been more fortunate. He was making steady progress towards picking up 10-man, PvP, and badge items necessary to put him next on the tryout list for our weekend casual raid, which dabbled with the first 4 bosses in BT and Hyjal. However, we recently ended up absorbing our weekend casual raid into our weekday hardcore raid since both raids were facing summer attendance problems. That eliminated much of the demand for new healers, so Freakshow stood little chance of seeing Tier 6 content.

If I could find a place for Freak in our roster, I would gladly do so. But since I cannot, I hope that Downfall can.

Harro! You come back to

Harro! You come back to gorg too! ;p

Oh and to Freakshow, this reminds me, you should sign up for this too if you can!

Oh man, I hope your dad is OK!

Looking forward to talking to you soon.

Best wished Freakshow! and Freakshows dad!

Catch me tonight. I can't

garreth — Mon, 06/16/2008 - 11:50

Catch me tonight.
I can't check your armory, but you and Sandar may have a sweet spot in guild.

I CANNOT GUARANTEE A RAID SPOT. If this bothers you, we won't be a good fit. I WANT to get you in as a healer, but it will take time and careful progress.

However, we're in a healer crunch. You may see a lot more action than you think though. Work your ass off for badge gear and every little improvement you can make.

Sorry for not being on

Freakshow (not verified) — Tue, 06/17/2008 - 03:19

Sorry for not being on Monday, but found out my dad is having some health concerns and was checked into the hospital. It's pretty serious, and I may be flying to PA to see him.

Anywho, if there's an update I'll make sure to let Saedo know. Otherwise I'll keep in touch here.

Also, for the love of god, get some mods and pimp out your ui a bit ;)

Haha! will do guys. Since

Freakshow (not verified) — Sat, 06/14/2008 - 22:35

Haha! will do guys. Since hitting 70 've been busting my ass to not only master shammy 5 man/10 man healing, but up until this week(hectic at work for me), was trying to get into every run I could.

Once I finalize our xfers, I'll be sure to get in touch.

Thanks, ~Freak

PS- Sunday is Father's Day, so I have no clue what we're doing, soI doubt I'll be online much, if at all until Monday.

Freak, I'd like to catch you

garreth — Sat, 06/14/2008 - 20:51

Freak, I'd like to catch you in game and get you involved in some of our weekend raids. Like Jasmynn said, we're pretty heavily into some T6 content so you'd be at a massive disadvantage at this point. However, with enough ZA and badge gear, you'd be competitive as hell.

We've been short healers for both raids for weeks. Your #1 goal should be reading and internalizing end game strats so you don't slow us down. Catch me in game.

Your gear is simply just

Cisper — Sat, 06/14/2008 - 15:57

Your gear is simply just Karazhan epics, which is a good start towards better things, but Downfall can't really cater much.

You'd crater in most content that both raids are encountering (Be it, BT or MH), and don't have suffice gear to maintain what is necessary for those raids.

There is still alot of gear you can get from outside of raids at your gear level (see: Badge Gear, Other Karazhan Items, Zul'aman, PvP). I don't think Downfall would be a good fit in terms of perspectives of raiding.

Log off in healing gear you

Log off in healing gear you nub!

Ya, my bad Saedo. I did the app from work and was expecting to play soem last night, but didn't get the chance.

Anywho, my family and I are in the process of xferring today(Saturday) back to Gorg, so we will see ya guys soon!

Take care ~Freak
