10 Boxing Karazhan (video)

awesome, very lucky on those infernals though!

If he drops an infernal on my tank I just try to heal through it. Last night he dropped one and it was hitting only 2 of my alts and my tank.. i was doing okay healing through it and I moved one alt out, but while scrambling to move the other I let my tank die. ><

Other times he's dropped them just on my alts, and twice I've gotten away but it's always been a wipe. The one time I got away with the alts I simply didn't give my tank enough healing and the other time I moved my alts like 30 yards from him and his explosion wiped a few guys with the debuff. Overall very hectic and i haven't suceeded in recovering from a bad drop yet. I just wipe and try again.

Nightbane is a PITA. I've got the first ground phase down pat but the air phase is still really shaky for me. I either wipe during the rain of bones or during the transistion to the ground. I've got him back to the ground successfully a couple of time but then it's usually fear that gets me. I'm starting to blame my skills more than my equipment now. Last night on Moroes my offtank wiped really early, so i just tanked him with my back to him (to avoid gouge) and got his ass down to enraging. After he killed my tank I just started mashing heals and my lead shaman took a few hits. I tore him down to 3% before he finally wiped me. I know my MT's gear is pretty good.

I subed out one warlock for my warrior last night for Moroes, Maiden, The Opera (Romulo and Jul), and the mana feeders. Using melee alts is pretty hard but it was doable. It peeked my interest to try and use her as a tank again. Her gear sucks so hard though.

Overall a fun kara night. Atuneman, Maiden, Illhoof and Curator are all easy sauce while Moroes, Opera and Prince are at least doable in 2-3 trys. Chess event is just hit or miss, depending on if King Lane comes to me early. Aran gets down to the wire every time, I've never killed him with less than 4 people dead. Although last night I killed him in 3 trys.

How long is it taking you per run now?

It's hard to tell how much time i spend actually playing. I go afk quite frequently for long periods of time. I still think it takes 6 hours of actual playtime to clear it. I'm getting fast every time though. Plus I waste a lot of time trying to kill nightbane every week. I have a lot of room to improve.

I'm lazy on the other videos. I've got clips for all the bosses I've killed but I'm just spending my time farming badges now. Yesterday I was still fancying the thought of bringing in my warrior as a MT (replacing a warlock) and letting my two paladins heal. So I took her out for a spin in heroics. Blood furnance was the daily. I think Fur put it best when he said check your ego at the door. She just got leveled over and over and I gave up. I took her through normal slabs for a confidence booster, then I went to heroic steamvaults and managed to eek by it. She died on every other pull though. ><

Her equipment is pathetic. She has like 445 defense and barely 11k health. I gem'd everything with sta gems, so she's lucky to have 11k health. I really dread the thought of gearing up another toon in normal instances, so I shelved her today (I don't mind heroics because of badges). I took my 3 new shamans and my two paladins and rocked heroics for a cool 26 badges today. It felt nice trashing heroics after getting pwn'd yesterday. The only difference was the tank...

My raid is strong enough to let her tag along for the first half of kara not doing much but dying and collecting loot. The warlock that i have to sub needs gear, so she'll only see the first 4 bosses before getting put back on the bench.

I'm really looking forward to ZAM, so having the extra tank will let me rotate a pally to full time healer. I can't stand to think of using 2 shamans and a priest to heal. seems like too much micromanagement to me, although I have yet to try it.
