I knocked out my Wyrmrest dailies today and received 'honored' rep with Wyrmrest. I can just see me floating on my drake now.....ahhhh. Just as I was coming out of my drake daydream I got a whisper asking if I could heal a group. Coming off of my recent train wreck effort of healing I decided to get back in the saddle and give it another try. I let them know that I was normally dps but could still heal. I knew I could and I convinced them that I could. We went into Drak Tharon Keep. There was me and a troll mage and troll shaman and two undead DK's. I swear I trip over DK's no matter where I go. So 3 trolls and 2 undead decided to take on the depths of DTK. We blew through that place in about 20 minutes. It was unbelieveable - a delicate concert of renews and greater heals, a flash heal here and there, a few bubbles and prayer of mendings. It was beautiful and not one death occured. I did it! I kept the group up and didn't really stress about it. The tank was really good to. The exact quote was 'it's nice to not even notice the tank and healer'. That means we were doing our jobs and doing them well. I was thinking that being a full time healer wouldn't be such a bad thing. What a difference a group makes. 3 days ago I was hating the whole idea of healing and today I was feeling might fine about it. We did so well the group wanted to keep going so we went into Violet Hold and absolutely wrecked it! Again, zero deaths. I ended up getting a leg drop and got a decent reward from completeing a quest in there. High fives and well wishes were flying around. Next I went back to Zul' Drak and absolutely wore the landscape out grinding out the level. I ended up hitting 76! What a great day! After all was said and done, I healed two instances, got 3 gear upgrades and gained another level. I'm even 4 1/2 bars into the level. 77 here I come. I can hardly wait to see the shadow carpet!
Congratulations. There's nothing like a good run to boost your confidence.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I've complained that you can't swing an undead cat without hitting a DK. But the silver lining is that DK's don't roll on cloth.
And the shadow carpet is awesome. Even though you look like you're surfing.
