WoW blah blah RIFT blah blah...
Been playing a lot less WoW lately, but that won't stop me from a WoW post!
My hunter is now 85 and finally has a high enough ilvl for raiding. It's really great to have her at end game because she was my first character ever and has never quite made it to level cap until now. Also, she fucking ROCKS the dps charts and it turns out I'm pretty damn decent with my CC options on her. Seriously, I just love it. x_x I've never been great at dps until now, and it feels awesome. Also, I got Sambas a while back. So cool.
GIANT PICTURE I DON'T EVEN CARE. LOOK AT HIM.
Terrorpene is next. Stupid turtle apparently doesn't stay up for long when he DOES spawn, and I've never even seen him :c
I'm getting frustrated with my guild, even though some of what's going on is my fault, too. I'm on a PST server, but in a Central time zone, so there's a 2-hour difference. If we have a raid starting at 7, it doesn't actually start for me until 9.
A few weeks ago, I showed up pretty late for a raid. I was admittedly being a bit of a brat, but I'm SO COMPLETELY SICK of my guild treating me like I'm just a healbot for them. They've actually CALLED ME A HEALBOT TO MY FACE. They were joking, but it's really not funny when that's pretty obviously all they think of me. They joked that I should delete my hunter and only level my healers and dump my boyfriend because he interferes with raid times. Uh. huh. Anyway, I showed up late to the raid because I kind of wanted them to realize that the rest of our healing team is pretty weak and it's totally not fair for me to have to help carry an ENTIRE RAID. (ALSO our druid refused to spec into the talent that allows him to dispell magic debuffs and wtf ALL HEALERS WHO EXPECT TO RAID SHOULD TAKE THIS TALENT WTFFFFFF)
So after the raid that I essentially skipped, our GM/RL whispered me asking where I was, blah blah blah. I told him that I need to back off of WoW for a while, especially on weekdays because it's interfering with my job/life and that's when he told me to dump Zach, move to California, and just sit around with he and his wife and play WoW. Right. I told him about how I was worried because I didn't realize it at the time, but I literally almost flunked out of college because of WoW and that I personally know that if I don't back off, it's going to be a problem. Well, he argued with me about it, and I basically told him that I wouldn't be QUITTING, but I would certainly stop signing up to raids that I might not make it to.
He complained that without me there, the raid just fell apart and the healers didn't know what to do. Awesome. No, really, awesome. Because I totally wanted to carry a healing team through a raid and hold their hands and cast their Rejuvs for them. Seriously. I mean, honestly. If I can learn my class and figure out raid mechanics and all that, SURELY these people who have supposedly been playing since Vanilla/BC can. I just....I don't even.
Anyway, just so I'd have something else to do when my guild starts getting me down, I bought RIFT on sale last weekend. I'm only just now getting to areas I haven't played before in beta, so I'll have to see if I can stick with this one. I'm already pretty bored with my characters and their wonky stiffness, but I guess I'll deal. Also, I still have no idea how to spec in RIFT so I'm just picking random souls and doing whateverthefuck I want. My warrior is a Champion/Beastmaster.../Warlord? I don't remember. She pretty much rules. My favorite is jumping off of something and charging a mob because sparkle!charge is the best charge. I've started dying a lot lately, though, which makes me feel pretty stupid x_x One time I was happily buzzing along doing quests and this zombie came after me. As I was fighting it. like FOURTEEN MORE ZOMBIES came at me and ate my face. That sucked. So I haven't played in a couple of days hah.
UMMMMMMM there should be an art post soon, cause I have a whole crapload of stupid little chibi Warcraft babies I drew the other night out of boredom. Maybe I will do teeny commissions for people if anyone's interested in them :x
