Kicking a dead HasteFollow

OK, ok...

-Do you like green eggs and haste?

No, no, no! I do not like them inside Naxx, who needs fast around undead packs? I do not like them in frozen jails, I prefer to cast like sleepy snails! They did not help in ToC, I bring my own haste, so let me be!!!

-Try them, try them, you will agree, they will help in ToGC...

If I try them will you stop? Sam I warn you, I'll call a cop!

...

Say, this haste is nice, I daresay. I could eat this every day. Tanks aren't waiting to be healed, I can still toss in my shield! My bar stays blue and his stays green, that is what I have seen. Thank you, thank you Sam I am. Thank you thank you... I'm off to spam.

Srsly, I geared about 14% haste (around 1.2 second Fheal raid buffed w/o BT) doing ToGC, and it helped out. We are working on it w/o a pally healer and I was falling behind way too much on the tanks. I have no gcds to spare to the raid once impale starts stacking, and I was able to gear into a haste position with the Ony helm.

As a previous advocate of not adding haste after a BT hasted 1 second Fheal, I do hereby publicly announce that I have changed my mind, until of course, I change it back. =)

We are a bit undergeared atm, so our chances of actually clearing the content is low (dps is consistently between 3-5k, averaging more towards the 3k side), but that is no reason not to practice! When everything is clicking nicely, we have the first boss in NB down to about 200k when the worms make their entrance.

I found as MT healer in ToGC, Fheal is returning to my lineup. Especially if I am on the move (monkey or fire), I need every bit of time to keep the tanks up. If I can get off a BT hasted PoH for both, so be it, but many times I am falling behind and the damage starts to become unmanageable. Tossing an odd shield off onto the raid other than unavoidable damage is out of the question. So a faster Fheal becomes quite attractive. I glyphed for it, but mana is not the issue now, I may have to regem back into SP. >.<

The good news is that even though the dps is a bit low to carry us through, everyone is learning the fight and understands just how important the different details are. Once we can achieve the nimbers necessary, I think we have a skilled enough group to progress nicely.

BTW How do they know when I am casting Penance? I got hit 3 times in a row with the fire just as I started Penance and was interrupted. =(

NR beasts 25 man heroic.
4 kobolds dead, so +60% damage from Gormok.
Protwar tank with last stand up, 67.5k health.
From 100 to 0 in 0.9 seconds.

We wiped on Icehowl's enrage once too.

I got hit for a little over 500.000.
I think I forgot to save a screenshot, but it was basically
"Icehowl crits Æthien for 25000 (485000 overkill)"
Only without the neat rounded numbers.
And I still tanked him for about 10 seconds.
Dodged his first three attacks, then deterrenced and disengaged.
