It's been one shitty weekend for me really. The pollen count has been off the charts and I've been feeling down. As much as I don't want to whine about it, I wish I wasn't as affected by allergies.

At least this week's been good to my toons.

Instead of bringing in my hunter(Empresse) for the ICC-25 run yesterday, I brought in my druid (Koraya) instead. I pretty much sunk closer to the bottom of the meters (yeah, being undergeared is pretty shitty) but I at least was able to kick serious ass against some people who were waaay better geared than me (not gonna tell who!). At least I was a few hundred Gearscore higher after I was done. I got enough Ashen Verdict reputation to get my Ashen Band of Destruction. Then I received Helm of the Elder Moon and Bone Sentinel's Amulet. And with Frost Badges, I bought Belt of Petrified Ivy. Yeah, biatch is getting geared.

I asked Dogghead if he was willing to start a 25-man TOC (yeah seriously, why don't I EVER learn my lesson here?). I tanked on my paladin (Ezraelle) alongside Huntiez's warrior (Deezen). We did pretty well, granted some dumb moments from me and a few people. And I gots me some lewts, Legionnaire's Gorget and Belt of Bloodied Scars.

Then tonight I was just going to chill and be high on pain meds when a new guildie, Mistaroboto (who I've ran raids with a few times before) asked if people wanted to come to ICC 10. I volunteered to bring my pally.
They had me tanking Muradin on heroic... on the Alliance side! That was a first time for me, I always tanked the Horde side. Everything else went pretty well, at least to me. Now, I've never gone past Saurfang so tanking the Plague Wing was new to me. Festergut was pretty easy cause all I have to do is taunt. Rotface wasn't too fun with the running around chasing green goo and watching them make angry red goo-babies that tried to kill me. Then Putricide which made me cry a little. We would've done a one-shot if it weren't for my screen freezing and me losing aggro on the boss early in the fight but at least the second try was pretty perfect. I was given The Facelifter, which was a total upgrade from my old 232 mainhand.
All in all I did a few dumb things inexperienced tanks do, like go LOS from the healers and standing on the wrong spots. I guess I am going to have to pay more attention to the tanks when we bring in our mains for raids if I wanna continue tanking.
