Well we ventured into normal Firelands once more and had a decent 2-1/2 hour raid. Downed 5 of 7 bosses with only a few wipes. This means that Thursdays raid should, in theory, be able to down Staghelm quite quickly and move onto more serious Ragnaros attempts. I’m hoping we try some heroic modes soon, we’ll see what the raid leader says.
No loot from last night which is as expected. I really only need tier pieces off of the last 2 bosses combined with a helm from Shannox and boots from Baleroc. There may also be a neck piece in there somewhere but it’d be a sideways upgrade at best. The helm from Shannox have never dropped in the dozen-ish times we’ve killed him, I’m doubting their existence at this point.
The raid group is doing good. We swap in the odd person but the core is working like a well oiled machine.
Hopefully going to level my alt. hunter tonight while I watch some TV, we’ll see how that goes, be nice to hit 79. I did read that patch 4.3 will speed up the grind from 7-80 by 30%, typical, maybe I’ll level my DK at some point lol
2 interesting posts the last 24hours. Hunters need not fear patch 4.3 despite some tooltip changes:

Also, we finally get to see what our tier 13 gear looks like and it’s badass!
Love the Ironman look.
I don’t even know what Firelands is… I canceled my account about a year ago… I’ve been playing Rift since January… I like it a lot… my guild is Prophecy and I’m on the Threesprings server…
