I just thought I'd stop in and talk about our ICC run last night. We put together a 10 man team and decided we'd go knock the place around a little bit. Aside from nearly wiping on trash a few times, we had no troubles really. We took down Lord Marrowgar, Lady Deathwhisper, Rotface and Festergut all with only one attempt. It was amazing!
We actually got to meet Professor Putricide last night - some of us for the very first time! That fight...wow...there's a LOT going on in there. I'm going to spend some time watching videos tonight before raid time so that I know what I need to be doing in order to get through it. I can't even describe the fight to you other than to say it's chaotic.
There are green slimes and orange slimes...pungent blight...a huge monstrosity controlled by one of the tanks...slime pools and slime bombs...it's just chaos. Lots going on and the other healer last night kept stating that the entire fight is about reaction time. I think I might have to get myself hopped up on hyper pills before I go back in there, just so I can make sure I'm jumpy enough to get away from things. It's a lot of fun and really, the team we had last night seemed like they were in great spirits even after the Putricide wipes. We only made two attempts and hopefully will be going back tonight.
OH...and...I got a beautiful new staff from the Sauerfang fight (I believe it was). Here...I'll show it to you...
So that's pretty exciting!
I'm going to probably ignore the socket bonus and put 2 pure spellpower gems in there...then when I get it enchanted...zomigolly...
On pure spellpower from the staff, gems and enchants alone this item will give me 784 Spellpower.
That makes for one HELL of a giggly druid!
Appearance-wise, I'm not generally a fan of staves. They're big and bulky looking normally and they just don't generally look right, in my humble opinion. However...when they are THIS sexy and powerful...who cares about vanity?
I had thought about putting purple gems in to earn the socket bonus...but this staff already has an insane amount of spirit on it...
The purple gem I would most likely use would be the Purified Dreadstone. This gem gives +12 Spellpower and +10 Spirit. With the two gems plus the socket bonus I would have +31 spellpower. With two Runed Cardinal Rubies (+23 Spellpower) I would net +46 Spellpower. I usually hate giving up a socket bonus...but +7 spellpower just doesn't seem worth it. If I had other amazing gear to compensate, I might consider it a bit more, but for right now I'm going pure spellpower. I'm going to gem and enchant this tonight. I'm hoping we can get back into ICC tonight so I can take it on a test drive. :)
I'm a happy, happy tree right now!
