Well, I’m slowly getting the hang of trying to play the game while wearing this cast. I actually completed a Fall of Deathwing PUG 25-man raid Friday, and did two 5-man Dragon Sould heroics on Saturday morning. It’s definitely awkward though, and I died at least once when I couldn’t move out of ‘bad stuff’ fast enough. I actually got a useful drop from the first 5-man instance: [Temporal Pauldrons](http://www.wowhead.com/item=72821), which were a good upgrade from the level 353 shoulder item I was wearing in my DPS spec. I also had enough Valor Points to replace my Tanking spec leg armor with [Bladeshatter Treads](http://www.wowhead.com/item=77171). They replaced my Pyrelord Greaves, which at 365 was my lowest-level item in my tanking gear set except for my 1H weapon ( [Elementium-Edged Scalper)](http://www.wowhead.com/item=70158). ---

Hey **Bird** , thanks again for letting me help your guild take down Deathwing last week…I had fun! You guys seemed to be a very well tuned machine, and if it wasn’t for my loyalty (and my guild rep), I would be asking to join you guys. Although I seemed a little rusty on Firelands, it really wasn’t the case…I’ve only been on a few bossfights there…but if you invite me more often if needed, I know my dps (actually it’s a matter of correctly sequencing my attacks) would be more on par with your other dps’rs. I don’t recall killing Baleroc before, but that fight had me a little confused…could have sworn that was the first time I encountered that fight. Anyways, thanks again…and call on me anytime if/when the need comes. ---

You bet Yeti! It certainly is easier doing DS when you’ve got LFR to train you on most of it. Trying the FL heroic mode was pretty tough since you hadn’t seen it before. Going forward I’m pretty sure we’re going to need some fill-ins here and there. I’ll try and get the word out as soon as possible. ---

I’d been _ **planning** _ to get on for our BDL guild event last night, but I fell asleep on the couch a half-hour or so before it started (I hadn’t slept well the night before). My wife gave me a shove and told me to go to bed; figured I should take her advice and did so. Hopefully others signed on and there was enough for a guild run of some sort. ---

I was on around 9:15pm and did /who Burning Dog and only saw **Yeti** and somebody else, so I’m guessing nothing went down. ---

> [@Jas09](#): > > I was on around 9:15pm and did /who Burning Dog and only saw **Yeti** and somebody else, so I’m guessing nothing went down. Somebody else was my druid alt. Kailua logged in a bit later, so the three of us ran some Heroics (Yeti, Blusmoke, and Onikyoushi). Got some good guild exp, and I think Blusmoke got some gear. Yeti’s fat fingers got us into a Cata heroic (Vortex Pinnacle) at one point, which I hadn’t seen in quite a while. Yay for overgearing content! Yeti and Blu asploded our enemies, making the Ramkahen healer pulls on the last leg much less stressful. We also hit guild level 23! Only one more level and I can start making vendor purchases again without feeling like I should wait. ---

I want to post and say again THANK YOU to **hdc\_bst** (Kregethos) and **Kailua** (Blusmoke) for last night… Kreg and Yeti queued up for LFR DS and I casually mentioned how cool it would be if 2 [Gurthalaks](http://www.wowhead.com/item=78487) would drop on the Fall of Deathwing (I had seen it happen TWICE before, but I didn’t win any of the rolls) and since we are a DK and Pally, it would just be so cool if we won both of them…Well, 2 Gurthalaks did drop, and we had to wait the full 2 or 3 minutes to find out what our rolls were…\ No, we both didn’t win the rolls…but Kreg did win one of them! After a “GRATS” by me, I saw a trade window come up with the sword being offered up by Kreg…“No, I couldn’t”, I responded while cancelling the trade, but **hdc** would not relent…“No, you need it more than me…this is my farming toon”…I then accepted the next trade for the sword. What a giver! **Kailua** helped out on the enchants for the sword and the [Kneebreaker Boots](http://www.wowhead.com/item=77170) that I also picked up with VP, as well as the [Gutripper Shard](http://www.wowhead.com/item=77081) to round out the upgrades for the night. /salute ---

It was me ( **Kalathan** ), **Yeti** , and **Jarryn** last night. I was willing to try tanking, cast and all, so we queued for a 5-man Dragon Soul dungeon. We got Hour of Twilight. Yeti warned the healer and 3rd DPS that we’d PUG’d that the tank was in a cast; giving them a chance to bail if they didn’t want the hassle. However they stuck with us, and I thought we had a pretty good run. Unfortunately, one run as a tank was all my wrist could handle (I tend to squeeze the mouse a little harder when I tank) as it as starting to ache. So we queued again as three DPS, but as we waited, **Darland** logged in. Yeti touched base with him, and he was willing to tank for us, so we regrouped and requested. Got the Well of Eternity this time; and basically face rolled it. Our PUG healer was impressed; it sounded as if it was their first time healing a Dragon Soul instance. He said Darland didn’t seem to be taking any damage at all. Gotta love Death Knight tanks. I think Jarryn may have gotten an upgrade or two; nothing useful dropped for me ( or Yeti that I can remember). ---

Yeah, I’m just doing those for the VP now and getting our guildmates as many upgrades as they can get. ---

Cross realm raids. Yes, no, maybe so? You can do everything but DS, IIRC. I ran one the other night, worked pretty smooth, other than some issues with Mass Summons. Edit: Uh, I actually just remembered my issue with BDL is faction, not realm, but if anyone has a poor, lonely Alliance toon on any realm… ---

**Yeti** , I hope you’ve been getting the transmuted bars I’ve been sending you every day. For some reason your toon’s name won’t come up in the mail address tab when I start typing “Y-E-T”, so I always have to type Yeticalayla’s name in by hand. _ **Then** _ I feel the need to open the guild tab to double-check the spelling, etc., etc., etc. Anyway, I hope you’re getting the bars, and I’m not accidentally sending them to some poor schlub. ---

Update: That’s a Lot of Bait Achievement: 6570/10000 **Fishmongger** has in inventory: Highland Guppies: 500 Fathom Eel: 560 Lavascale Catfish: 580 …which translates to… 250 Seafood Magnifiques with leftovers: Highland Guppies: 0 Fathom Eel: 60 Lavascale Catfish: 80 Keep on fishing (any pools) and send any full stacks of the fish listed here to **Fishmongger** for storage until we get the achieve and the recipe…then we will be set for quite a while!
