Well I never got round to saying we downed the Illidari Council (the day after we killed Mother Shahraz) and then Wednesday/Thursday re-cleared up to Illidan again. Sunday we spent pretty much all day wiping on him learning the fight — our best attempt was 8%. Monday one of our fire resistance tanks didn’t show, but Tuesday we had another geared up and after a few more hours of wipes we killed him! Black Temple cleared! Only 6 bosses left in the game that I’ve never killed! We’re not geared for Sunwell yet but in a few weeks we’ll be going and giving it a go. I’m well pleased with our progress — it took the guild about 2 months to clear MH and BT!

Well it’s been a good week for Antihero! Tonight we killed Mother Shahraz! We only killed RoS yesterday so I’m pretty surprised that we made it so quickly. We didn’t have masses of Hearts of Darkness so could only spare enough to get everyone 3 parts of their shadow resist gear, which meant we were slightly gimped. I had around 254 buffed and there were some people who were a lot less. We wiped a fair bit because of the lack of resist and people failing on getting Fatal Attraction. Illidari Council here we come!

Today I finally got an upgrade for my Red Riding Hood’s Cloak from Karazhan. Gurtogg Bloodboil finally dropped some healing loot! Shroud of Forgiveness is way better looking than my old cape — for one thing — but it also gave me 36 more healing, 120 health and about 1.2 more mana regen! I guess those are the kind of upgrades you get when you go from Tier 4 to Tier 6! Best priest cloak until the twins in Sunwell.

Well my first two weeks of being back on WOW have been fairly eventful! I haven’t had much time to blog however as I’ve also started a new job as a web developer for a company in Stockton called TeesWeb!

So here’s a bit of an update of my recent goings on in WOW:

Loot: My Badge Loot Comparison post came in handy — I’ve managed to save up 100 badges and bought my Adorned Supernal Legwraps. When fully buffed this pushes my healing to over 2000 which is a pretty big margin! The best bit of loot I got though was my new Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat from the fishing daily quest — I really do love this thing! The next day I got an Eye of the Sea which sold for a very respectable 350g!

This post looks at the new healing badge gear available for me to buy. As I’ve been away since before patch 2.4 hit I never really thought about what badges to get. So when I logged yesterday the vendor was already unlocked and I had 165 badges burning a hole in my Traveler’s Backpack. Here’s the comparison of what gear I currently have versus the badge loot:
