DPS: Smash FCFS

Its almost been two weeks since I've gone to DPS. Ret pallies appear at the top of our DPS charts. I'm sure once more folks get geared this will change, but for whatever reason we dominate. I've been consistantly #1 by a decent margin for most boss fights. I have agreed with the conclusion that the order of Judgement, Crusader Strike, Divine Storm, and Consencration (with glyph) is the order of choice, meaning, if any of the abilities is ready, smash it in that order.

I spend my fight making sure I'm on the side of the boss and tapping '2,3,4,5' while pecking for the occassional Divine Plea and Hand of Salvation. Every 2 minutes I pop wings/trinket. Why 2,3,4,5? well, 1 is Hammer of Wrath, which is only available the last 20% of the bosses health, I find it easier to move my hand to the left and then do 1,2,3,4 and peck sometimes the consencrate, but normally it doesn't matter at that point.

I now have two pieces of tier 7.5. I am hoping to get the remaining two asap, along with Bonejaw. Yea, nice goals. Our guild struggled with Militiary wing...we don't have priests with enough + hit to make the MC work. I honestly don't know what else can be done other than resolve that. Patchwerk pwnd' the guild last week and they avoided him. Issue is that our healers haven't adapted to what is necessary for that fight...big heals always incoming. They are used to watching grid/healbot and reacting...the passive healing of hots and judgements with quick heals does not keep the hateful strike victim alive. Hopefully folks will be open to chain throwing their big heals. Between blessing of wisdom, mana tide totem, and replenshiment, this really shouldn't be that big of a deal.

A part of me would like to try my hand at healing...but honestly I'm setting the bar by which others in our DPS is trying to reach. They are wisely asking questions now and have been doing much better after a few runs. With perhaps just a few more weeks until the next raid becomes available, I hope we can see some real progression. Naxx this week was our first Wed/Thr 25 man run. We did OS before hand on Wed...personally, I would like to see OS for Sunday and then wipe on progression for the rest of the night. *shrug*

We did a quick 10 man OS and then I had to bail yesterday. 10 man anything seems to be a waste of time once you are in the *same* instance with 15 other people. 25 man is simply easier, has more loot, etc. I think there is more of a chance to get my offsets in 10 man...its all good.

Now that I'm done rambling, time to install a child seat in the minivan. Yes, I lead an exciting life. :)
