Its been nearly two months since my last post. I have the Betrayer of Humanity...seems like 6+ weeks now. I do miss my expertise rating...but I feel the solid stats from this weapon still outweigh the Jawbone.

For the last several weeks, I simply try and log in for the raid nights. We have our home for sale and having a new baby, etc, there just isn't time for this game. A part of me is happy, its nice to have RL events to keep me focus. My funds have been depleting...no time for farming. That's really fine...there haven't been any chances to upgrade my gear, so no enchants are needed.

Our guild has the eternal issue...DPS. Too many of our folks can't output decent damage. I'd love to try something other than DPS...but I'm still stuck at #1 and probably won't be dropping by much until we get into Ulduar. I think my GL is afraid of venturing too much into there, and seeing how terrible we'll do in our current state. Unfortunatley. its not a gear issue...everyone has 95% of what they could upgrade to in Naxx. Its a skill/class knowledge that is missing, IMO.

I have finished up my healing set. Its not 'top tier' but its 'solid'. My tanking set, oddly enough, is weaker. I just don't have the interest in asking for tank gear when its clear I won't ever get to tank...too many warriors, DKs, and other pallies in our guild *in theory* should be stepping up for those positions.

I don't see a clear way out of our problem. The good dps folks leave for other guilds...the remaining folks seem content on farm instances. We'll see how the next few weeks go.
