WoW and Raiding
A few weeks ago I was promoted to Raid Leader by the Guild Master. This was after attempting Kara and not being able to get to a single boss and me telling everyone on vent to stop, take a break and get organized. However proud of my new title, I was nervous and anxious about it too. I’ve never been a Raid Leader before. I’ve been on an insane amount of raids with my priest, but my job was fairly simple. Just stand in the back and heal.
Last night my guild went to Kara for the second time. I’m always shy talking on vent at first, but I know the mobs and bosses and I have a decent understanding from experience on what everyone needs to do. It was such a pleasant feeling to see Raid Leader status handed over to me. I marked the targets, explained the fights, assigned classes on what to do and we did swimmingly. We downed Moroes, The Huntsman and the Maiden of Virtue.
I had lots of whispers from the officers telling me I was doing a good job which only encouraged me more. Something I was afraid of became such a good time. I just needed a little encouragement.
How I’m managing work, school and WoW I will never know. I never thought I would be able to have WoW in my school schedule, but I’m doing it.
My mage is sporting a new Tier 4 helm now and is decked out in more purples than blues. Ah, such a good feeling of progress.
