It’s Monday night - it’d be nice if we could get a raid-sized group together. However it’s also the season opener for my Patriots so if we don’t get something worthwhile going I might not give WoW my full attention either. ---

> [@Mister\_Rik](#): > > Gratz! > > I’ve been PvPing on my sub rogue a bit, and today I hit a BG with my arms warrior for the first time. Both are much more fun in PvP than my ret paladin, that’s for sure. I think it probably has something to do with the fact that the rogue and warrior both seem to constantly have _some_ kind of attack available, whereas the paladin is more “Whack-waaaaiiiit-whack-waaaaiiiit…” Well, I usually throw in a heal, hand of freedom, repent, rebuke, hammer of wrath…you know…the usual button mashing. I like my ret pally in PvP. > [@Skammer](#): > > Yep, most other teams seem to adopt a strategy of “kill the priest first” (that’s what we do too) so if I can stay alive long enough for us to kill one of them, we usually win. There might be something to this…a priest with a lot of mana is usually assumed to be a healer and if you can stay alive while I take out their biggest threat seems to be our de facto strategy. Sometimes we just see one guy out there and just unload on him without regard to the stealthed opponent and that usually works. > [@Skammer](#): > > It’s Monday night - it’d be nice if we could get a raid-sized group together. However it’s also the season opener for my Patriots so if we don’t get something worthwhile going I might not give WoW my full attention either. I should be on…my interest in football has waned over the years…but I alone do not constitute a raid…last week I got on to [Baradin Hold 25 man](http://www.wowhead.com/zone=5600/baradin-hold) and there is some great gear to be had there too…so I don’t mind hopping into one of those if the opportunity arises. Also, we are 3/7 atm in Guild 5man Dungeons, if we have 6-8 guildies, we could run 2 dungeons each in 2 groups to max out our guild xp and probably get to level 19. Or we can go old school and take out the Lich King or whatever. ---

Count me out for any 9:00 activities. I have a game tonight so I won’t be on until later. Yeti-- for your list, my availabilty is M-F and I’m Central. ---

Sorry about my performance last night in H:VP gang. I haven’t actually dps’ed a dungeon in forever so my ui had all of my healing elements set up and none of my DPS cooldowns, AOEs, etc. Sorry if I took more damage than I should’ve Kheen. 🙂 ---

It was fun for me, because my shammy isn’t even fully heroic-geared and I haven’t played him for a few months so I was a little rusty out of the gate. I kept forgetting my Water Shield at first which is why I was going through mana so fast. But by the end I was getting the hang of it again. ---

How many 85s do you have now, **Skammer**? I keep looking for folks when I’m on but the only BDL member on when I was there last night (like 8ish) was a lower Warlock (Leogon or something like that). Did a few BGs but had to bug out before the usual BDL-activities time. ---

Leogon is our new member, **Captain\_C** from the other WoW thread. I have 3 85s - Kene (undead spriest, pve/pvp), Keyne (belf holy pally) and Kheen (goblin resto shaman). My pally and shammy have dps off-specs but neither are very good. Usually I’m on earlier on Mondays but I was watching the Pats-Fins game last night :). ---

Jarryn, Makig and Yeticalayla added a couple more guild dungeon runs last night and we finished 6/7 for the week…we are soooooooooo close to guild lvl 19! ---

The reward for that is bonus Honor Points, right? I don’t have anything too useful to get with HP, I’ve just been buying the S9 wand over and over again for 700 points and turning them all into maelstrom crystals for my enchanting. ---

No…300k guild XP plus 150g to the Gbank for each dungeon completed… We should be doing 7 of these a week to get us towards lvl 25. ---

No sorry, I meant the reward for hitting level 19 is a bonus to how much honor you earn. ---

Just a heads up in case somebody sees the name and wonders “Who is that?” - Keliraeda the blood elf paladin was caught in a bizarre magical anomaly and is now a tauren paladin named Donoma. Donoma is an Omaha name that means “sight of the sun” 🙂 ---

Aha! I saw Donoma online tonight and thought “I didn’t know Mister Rik had another 85…” ---

BTW Yeti, Friday night is my anniversary so I will probably not be around for arena-grinding. But I’ll pop in during the weekend or we can set aside some time on Monday. ---

> [@Skammer](#): > > I don’t have anything too useful to get with HP You know you can convert them to JP at a slight loss, right? And the same thing in the other direction. Don’t know if there’s anything you need from JPs at the moment, but. ---

**Skammer** , I’ll be in Vegas starting tomorrow midday and coming back Sunday afternoon, so just to give you a heads up, you can get CP with someone else or we can shoot for Monday night…but I am planning to cap my CP on Sunday night (if you already did by then or if you just happen to be on at that time) or Monday night (if you want to cap CP with me in our usual Monday night Raid time). ---

Hey, I was going to create a guild event for tonight and do a Mass Invite to our 85s. But apparently my rank isn’t high enough for that. Is anyone willing to promote Kene to officer-level again? (He used to be, then briefly joined another guild in Wrath before switching back). Unless someone else is willing to send out invites… I’ll be on vacation without Wow from 10/1-10/9 but I’ll be on tonight. **Yeti** I never did get any CP this week so if you didn’t cap last night I’d be up for going for it tonight. ---

Yeah, same here Skammer…I was wayyyyy to tired to do anything last night…Slept about 4 hours in Vegas each night over the weekend, but I fell asleep at 9pm last night to catch up.
