It has been very quiet on the WoW front recently. I shall update you anyways.
Things with the new guild (and the faction change in general) have worked out for the best- Aanthe is in 4 piece Tier 9 (Emblem only gear for now- I’ll start collecting Trophies, soon, I hope.) Haven’t really gotten a chance to battle test the set bonus yet, though a Night Elf Death Knight approved greatly of Aanthe’s look- the corseted robe (-squee!- Corsets!) and the Tier 8.5 Sailor Moonglade helmet apparently make for very fine attire (an opinion that I agree with.) She got the shiny belt off of ToC25 Twins last night, as well- now I just need a decent MH weapon to drop- I’m a MH/OH kinda girl, especially since Aanthe has the Chalice of Searing Light) and a cloak (even though she’s ROCKING the Shawl of the Old Maid from Naxx25. Yeah. Screw you, Ulduar, and your ‘one trash drop on 10 man’ healing cloak.)
Raids are fun again. This, above all other things, makes me very happy. Gear is all well and good, but downing bosses with people who don’t habitually screw up, yell in Vent, and act like total jerkoffs is nice. Relaxing. CASUAL. -gasp- I SAID IT. Though we have an overabundance of tree!druids. -shrug- At least 2 normal trees have decently geared offspecs. I think I’m the third of the wellgeared trees, and both of my offsets (Panzerkin and Kitty) are starting to fill out nicely. Though if they prefer anyone to switch to DPS, I’ll tell them I’ll mainswitch to my Death Knight, who’s currently in Valgarde sucking up rested experience time. Or level a resto!shammie, as we currently have none that raid with us.
And people are finally starting to pronounce ‘Aanthe’ right.
Say it with me now.
‘On-thah’
Not ‘Anne-thee.’ Not ‘An-an-thee.’ And no, not ‘Ann.’
Pryderi, if you can see this, I will continue to give you shit about it. Until I am less shy in Vent, at any rate.
