Monday (21 Nov) - A Lazy Week

Mf's Mon/Tues raid is on this week, and they had their regular crew running Firelands Monday night. Wild didn't pay much attention, but Beth'tilac remains unbeaten. Bd's Wed/Thurs raid is not scheduled so there will be no raiding for Wild unless I decide to help out with "Amateur Nights" planned for Fri/Sat/Sun to help guildies with alts and gear in BoT and BWD.

Wild thought he was pretty well done with getting gear until Patch 4.3. Happy, however, came across an i378 Chelley's main hand dagger on the Auction House. Normally the dagger costs around 20-25k gold, but the upcoming patch is forcing gear prices down and it was up for sale at 14k gold. Wild has an i365 one hand mace. Comparing stats, not only is the dagger a higher ilvl (it has better sta/int stats) the rest of the stats on the dagger is a better fit than the mace, increasing mastery and crit without giving up any haste. The only thing that made Wild cringe was that enchanting the dagger with Power Torrent cost him 1500 gold. That's one expensive enchant. Wild's gear is now officially i370 equipped. Wild is as ready as he's going to be for the new dungeons and raids in the patch.

I guess I should congratulate World of Warcraft for it's SEVENTH birthday this past week. I'm not sure what that says about those of us who have been there since the beginning and are still playing the game. Blizzard thought so highly of the accomplishment they've given every player a 7% increase in experience and reputation leveling. That would be pretty impressive - except that the xp/rep gain is only good for one hour.

I might be able to make Wednesday's Hunter Fortress if there is interest. And have a great Thanksgiving!

Wild and all the Wild family will be out of action next week. We are leaving for Las Vegas on Sunday, 27 Nov, and will return the following Sunday.
