Old weird flash animation nostalgia, part the third:

MGS3: Crab Battle! (C o_o)C A certain individual and I still at times make ascii crabs in gchat to threaten each other. :p





My little girl!Sam toon is all grown up~ ^.^ My third 80, which is so few compared to some people, but still, yay! God, I should've blacked out the Recount window, though. Getting geared 80s to run you through an instance is awesome, except of how godawful you look in comparison. >_> Am so excited about gearing her up, though. :D Had a cloak, badge bracers, a crafted ring, and one of the Darkmoon: Greatness trinkets waiting for her, plus enough badges to buy T9 shoulders. Going to also JC up a neck and another ring, and get verbranden to do a plate chest, belt, and boots. And and--have started on the Quel'Delar questline, thanks to an extraordinary gift of a Battered Hilt from one Mr.Alevva, who could have made himself a ton of gold for it, but chose not to. ♥ I'm so thrilled to finally see that questline, and it results in a really awesome weapon reward at the end, especially for a non-raiding alt. Man, at times, I wish I could switch to Wynn for raiding--except I really suck at melee, I'm decent with Ak, it'd throw off our composition of raid vs. melee dps, we'd end up with too many paladins and would lack a raiding warlock, etc. And also, I wouldn't then be playing an awesomesexy, faaaaabulous belf dude. So. :p

Grats on the 80! I'll likely be on tonight so hit me up if you need anything crafted and dungeons run!

Wynnchester needs better gear!

[whitereflection.livejournal.com]

Even if I need Forge of Souls and Pit of Sauron? :o (Though not sure I can get into those without a full guild group where we don't queue. But anything would be good \:D/ Should grab Eb/Contego, too, if he's on--he had lousy heroic pugs last night.

Wynn is still way better than Flowerthief, though. Times infinity. :p ♥

[verbranden.livejournal.com]

And probably a lot better than Solstafir. I really didn't do anything for him hitting 80. :P

WOOT grats on 80! :D

[whitereflection.livejournal.com]

\:D/ Thanks!

Congrats on 80! You keeping her ret?

Thanks for the rec, too! I always admire paxlux's work, but often don't LIKE it, if you know what I mean. But that one was perfect.

[whitereflection.livejournal.com]

Hehe, thanks! And yeah, definitely ret. I just don't seem to be able to bend my mind around anything but DPS. All my toons--former main, current main, alts--are all that. Rogue, mage, hunter, warlock, paladin, deathknight. I'll definitely never heal, and I'm super hesitant to ever try tanking. Though Wynn's off-spec is prot, which I used for some of her leveling. I keep accumulating a prot set, but I just don't know if I'll ever use it. ^^; *is chicken*

I've enjoyed all 3.
I've played a healer since I started MMORPGs, and I LOVE healing on my disc priest. It's a great mix of proactive and reactive gameplay.

Tanking is fun - you get to control the pace of a group or raid. Oh, man, MTs for big raiding guilds are such a bunch of big-dicked control freaks. Pretty literally I've never met another woman who pushed her way in there, although I have heard of some on other servers.

DPS should be more relaxing, since no one dies if you miss your timing like on a tank or healer. But I'm too much of a perfectionist on it, trying to maximize my dps.

[whitereflection.livejournal.com]

I think if I were to ever try being a healer, it would be as a resto shaman. Might be something I attempt come Cataclysm, since I'll want a token goblin to try out. I may try tanking on Wynn someday, but only in a all guild group where they'd be really patient, understanding, forgiving, that sort of thing. ^^;

Ohman, I so know what you mean on MT personalities. I've been mostly lucky since, but in vanilla, we had some of the worst control freaks/prima donna sorts, as well as one tank who like to *FREAK OUT* with even the most minor of stress. The guild I ran with in BC mostly were average tanks, though one guy was HORRID like was he just autoattacking or something? I could pull threat off him with *dots*. But back then I met one of the most mellow, nice tanks ever, and he's still a friend of ours, even though the bunch of us left Hellscream for Eldre'Thalas. And I've known two female tanks, though the one in vanilla was mostly OT (since the true MT was the control freak/prima donna sort :p ), and she was pretty decent. Though our current MT, a paladin, is a woman who's become a friend of mine and is on my flist. :D I guess she's been MTing since mid-BC, was recruited to our guild on Hellscream for that role, and obviously we drug her with us to E'T. We share a common fondness for male belfs, and at times used to traumatize the guys we raided with with our emoting and nigh-naked dancing (sadly, all our friends are used to us by now, so it doesn't phase them anymore XD )

But I'm too much of a perfectionist on it, trying to maximize my dps.
OH MY GOD YES. I understand this, *so* very much. I have stressed about dps since freaking vanilla, when I was a terrible rogue and had reason to stress, all throughout the time I've been a lock and chasing after better players to try to be like them. It doesn't matter if I'm told I'm being too hard on myself, being self-critical, that I'm good, I always feel I should be better. I absolutely can't understand people who slack, because I'm always trying as hard as I can and feeling like I should try harder--even on old content or trash or whatnot. Even if at times I know certain classes do better, or certain do better on specific fights, I always feel like I need to improve.

Honestly, if I applied this sort of thinking to finding a new career and/or writing (fan or original)...man, what I could do. :/ The only other way I seem to push myself in that way was in school.

This story. .___________. Why so perfect? *reads again and again* paxlux just writes awesome stories.

[whitereflection.livejournal.com]

I know, right? ♥ So perfect!

Dingdingding! Congrats on the 80, I'm waaaay envious! :D
