I am pretty happy that I was FINALLY able to run Kara after trying to get geared up for about a month...I'd never ran it before, so it was a great experience...I love raiding!
I think the guild was unsure about me gear wise, but even with my mediocre gear, I was still #2 on the DPS meter for the night. We actually had 3 hunters on the raid, so there was a lot of DPS, and i was basically thinking the other two hunters would blow me away in terms of DPS since their gear was far superior...but I was able to keep up.
We were able to kill everything up to Prince, by that time a few unlucky infernal drops and a few wipes pretty much had everyone call it a night. I was a little disappointed I didn't get to roll on Legacy
but that's ok, another hunter bid a whole bunch of raid points to get it.
I did manage to win a roll for Drape of the Dark Reavers which is a nice upgrade for me. I also accumulated enough badges to craft myself a pair of Surestrike Goggles v2.0 which is also a great upgrade to my helm. I guess if you can impress your guild with DPS in less than stellar gear, and walk away at the end of the night with 2 epics, my first Kara was a success. I'm looking forward to my next run in there!
