The Vuur has been busy. Last night we had 2 groups of 10 go into Naxx. We’re a little slower than some of the other guilds but we’re still making a dent. One group cleared 2 wings – Spider and Abomination. Maexxna took out 2 DKs and the main pally tank but they burned her in time before she ate the rest of the raid.
Our crew was a little lighter on DPS. Vuur was running 2100-2300 most boss fights but aside from a rogue tagging at her heels there wasn’t much above 1200. That hurt. We were training a new tank so boss fights took 2-3 shots to get them down.
In the meantime I’ve been dualboxing my death knight and druid. It’s like having a deathknight with a pet druid. I recently respecced from Boomkin to Tree just to be able to do some instances. Healing on the tree and DPSing as the DK was a challenge at first but Halls of Stone is now quite easy and I can pump out about 1200 dps on the DK while healing. Both need gear badly and i’m making the push to hit 80 and start gearing them up.
The biggest change I ended up making was changing around the druid to be mouseover heals and keep the DK bound to keys. The Druid group heal is on the same key as the DK Death Strike but this usually works out ok. Most of the time i can just drop a HoT or 2 on the main tank, occasionally raid heal and wait for a cooldown break on the DK to jump over and heal people up again. Boss fights is a different story. I’m usually paying more attention to healing than DPSing so the DK is not usually as deadly there but no one is dying….
