well, I just recently came back to WoW and love the Death Knight....

Recently did Ramps at lvl 64 with 3 other DK's....and cleared it in about 15 mins. No healers..just us Dead guys in plate :)

Oh yeah and I only bandaged once lol (did some tanking too!!)

Actually hit 80 this weekend, and after allowing a couple low-level mobs to beat on me for close to an hour while I went AFK, brought my defense skill up to 400. Ended up at exactly 535 with gear, essentially ready for heroics.

Not quite happy with my health pool yet, though, and green Cobalt Bracers aren't exactly boosting confidence.

Just over 30K all buffed up (food, MoTW, BoK, PW:F). Really need those head and shoulder enchants, and Tempered Titansteel Boots are still 3 cooldowns away.

I got my +111 stam trinket from H-AN last night after a week of running it.
I know its a blue but its another option and a great one.
Only need epic boots and epic belt (the belt drops from H-AN....so I'm not done there yet).
I wish i didn't pass the boots up in naxx last time. (I let the other tank roll on it because I just won 2 lots in a row on easy to get gear)

I got very irritated with the Storm Peak quest where you have to use a Tamed Jormungar Worm to defeat a lvl 80 elite giant. The controls for the worm are just too sluggish, at least for me, so just for the hell of it I just soloed the guy normally. The fight lasted about 4 to 5 minutes, because according to Wowhead he has 315,000hp, but I killed him. Great fight :)

Stay well out of the way of that Stomp though!

Ran into Strat for the Lunar Festival achievement and figured I'd do a Baron run.

Well Deathcharger's Reins are mine. Might post a screenshot later on.

I've seen others doing it, so I figured why not? Soloed Onyxia this past weekend. Betrayer of Humanity makes Ony humble.

Champion of the Frozen Wastes is still not as awesome as Merrymaker Kizmiaz, but it was nice to get all the same =)

Only thing that could make me get rid of Merrymaker will be a second Twilight Vanq...... hoping next week.

Got my Bronze Drake from CoT timed event, in a pug no less.

Tanked it as Blood. Funny thing was we had a DK from a progression raiding guild with us and he questioned my ability to AOE tank with a 2h (odd thing to say, but whatever). I blew him off and we proceeded to destroy the place.

Another funny point, when I joined the pug I was, naturally, in my dps gear as I was farming. The leader questions whether I am actually a tank...then asks me to put on my tank gear to prove it. I made him say pretty please before I showed him my ~29k HP.

Love that Drake!

Cheers

4.2k on Patch (source) in heroic blues/purples as Frost (17/54/0) and got five (yes, FIVE!) serious upgrades after swapping my raid spot from my rogue to my DK.

Overall her performance was a little lackluster for her first Naxx25, but with the upgrades and possibly a new spec I think next week will go better.


Gah! Anyone hear anything on Ulduar already?

Gratz everyone on their recent successes!

=)

Last minute replacement for Naxx 10 in my guild. Did Heigan dance for the first time so I died...but I lasted until he was around 50%. The nine others downed him though. Cleared the rest of that quarter one-shots, got T7 pants and chest, new trinket, and badges for new off-hand. Since I was a last minute I didn't bring my frost resist gear, so I died pretty quick on the Dragon...was supposed to go back for him on Sunday, but our MT got hacked.

You use frost resistance gear? I've never had to use it.

Oh and I feel great.

I don't think anyone has to use it, it just makes it easier.

Tanked HoL for the first time, and kicked Loken's a@@ around the block. Also solo'd Not-So-Honorable Combat with my DK. 5 person quest? Wha? Blizzard was smoking something. I brandished my epeen and went to beat down the Overthane...he sent me crying home to mommy.

Right after I dinged 80, I soloed LBRS and the Seal of Ascension quest line. UBRS is next.

Guild First downing of Saph and KT on 10 man. KT was cool because on our 4th try we got him...barely. Turns out I was the last man standing and I got the killing blow when I was at < 100 health

Congrats on everyones recent accomplishments.

Haven't played much in the last week or two, so not much to say. Received a White Tickbird Hatchling from my first egg.

I got my necklace for 25 badges, celebrated by going to tank heroic Halls of Lightning. Since it's an instance I've never seen before, I told the group that's my first time in there and please explain the tricky parts.

I then proceeded to mess it all up with :
- Frequent disconnections (as a tank, thankfully they happened at the end of the fight, so no wipes ensued, but tensions got high)
- A couple of wipes because no one was explaining the tricky parts (exploding elementals, boss patrolling near trash, long corridor of death, mobs that have an AoE that needs to be interrupted, etc...)
- The last straw: While running back after a wipe to the patrolling golems, as soon as we entered the boss's room someone said "Pick him up FAST". I thought they meant the boss, which I picked up. It seems the over eager healer walked too far in and was being pummeled by another patrolling golem (which I didn't see)... The group broke up right then.

Last night was my back to the noobishness night. Smiley: cry

Don't mean to offend Dan, but that's why I personally will not tank an instance on Heroic before I've done it on normal. Why is why I've still not been to Gundrak, Oculus or Halls of Stone.

Back on Topic: Went to Naxx10 for the first time Friday, as an OT. We did Arachnid and Plague Wings.
None of the wipes we had (our GL was babysitting 9 of us who had never been) was my fault, which is somewhat of an accomplishment, I guess :)
Nobody (except me) tried to kill any of the scarabs on Anub, which meant after a while that I had ~20-50 of the things on me, and I went down FAST after that. My DPS was very high after a Pest+KM'ed HB though :D
The only other (boss) wipe was on Grand Widow, because as I was tanking the Worshippers, another DK, despite our shouts, decided to start killing them. MT went down, I picked her up, and we stayed alive until she enraged for the third time, after which the healers just ran out of gas.

Other than that, it was a fairly uneventful run. We had 7 plate wearers in the raid, and all that dropped was a bunch of Leather/Cloth, so nobody except a DPS warrior who got, I think, the shoulder token from Heigan, got any class-appropriate gear, but we DO now have a priest armed with this :D
