Formspring!
So I had a brilliant idea :)I made Immortelle a formspring page! LOL. It is kind of funny cuz some of the random questions actually can apply to a WoW toon. Good thing they have a random question generator and it's fun to answer them.
Here's the link: http://www.formspring.me/immortelle
Ask me anything! About my rogue or about me.

Progression News:We finally got him down. Woot!!!
April 14th Wednesday night, we opted to extend this week's lock out period so we can dedicate a full night of raiding to take the Lich King down and have him "down at our feet". We spent about 4.5 hours of wiping multiple times, but at the same time burning the fight mechanics into our heads. Our best attempt that night was 19%. We had a couple more attempts after that 19% but it went downhill from there, I guess we just burnt ourselves out.
We came back April 15th Thursday night after our 25man raid, with the eye of the tiger, staring down its prey and ready to take the kill.
Fight mechanics that at first needed to be consciously remembered, evolved to feel more natural and became part of our second nature.
On our third attempt of the night, we slayed the king.
It was such an awesome feeling! That cut scene right after the kill was epic! We all couldn't believe it. Finally!!! Our guild's first Lich King kill. I'm sure the kill will inspire the rest of our guild and ignite the passion for progression if it's not already burning. Two daggers dropped by the way, the Stormfury, Black Blade of the Betrayer, and I received both of them XD because nobody else could use it. I also don't have any real use for them either, as I have 2x Heartpierces and 2x Ribspreaders that I use for PvP. Lol, two of each kind. My weapon collection, is reserved for a future blog.
It was rough the 2 months before last month after the guild split happened, progression has been hard when we had to use our pool of casual raiders from group2 to fill the the over a dozen spots left from group1 25man. Our 10man had to establish synergy and really push the progression further, even when our 25man raids weren't looking good at all. This attitude of progression has trickled down and since about a month ago, things are picking up. Cataclysm is 10/12 at the moment, and I'm sure soon as the other 10mans successfully down Sindragosa and Lich King, the attempts on that fight in 25man will be so much smoother. I really stand by the experience and knowledge you can get from 10mans, because in 25 man, if there are people who do not have the slightest idea what to do, it's such a liability to carry those people around. More people, more chances of messing up.
Gear talk:
I can't wait til 25ICC-hm, I have no upgrades left but maybe 10hm loot with its better itemization. I have full 264 gear, except my 258 range weapon that I'm planning on replacing with Stakethrower heroic. But other than that, I don't have any more item level upgrades til heroic mode 25. If I'm so desperate to have a 264 item in that slot, I can equip my shrapnel star. It sucks when once in awhile, I have progression envy pangs. At least right now we'll be doing heroic modes in 10, it will satisfy my progression cravings and also, to work on the achievements for the mount...it will be awesome.
2-3 weeks ago Jesse/Judgernaught unlocked 10heroic modes for us and we did 6/12 in HM. Last week, I didn't do 10man with my original group but instead led a 10man and did 6/12. I QQ'd about that night because of some things I didn't like--with the raid comp, a certain player wearing PvP gear in raids (it's really a pet peave =/), didn't feel synergy with half the raid because I didn't know them well, the fact that I didn't put the group together and wasn't able to pick who I wanted to bring, etc. I do admit the objective wasn't clear as well and maybe my expectations weren't met so I really felt crappy. It's just that, if I was gonna lead my own group, I'd like it to be a progression group as well with progression-minded players. I talked to Lumi about it and I felt better after when he said that it was exactly what he wanted me to do: to help clear the first 6 bosses for that group, which we did.
I'm thinking of putting together an assassination set because I have like 249 frost emblems at the moment, and I really have nothing else to buy. I could convert them to primordial saronites I suppose, but I feel that's such a waste. I already have full relentless gear from last season too. Hmm, think I'll feel less guilty using up the frosts for that assassination set.
Mount up!
Special thanks to Jesse for getting me this awesome Celestial Steed the day they came out ^_^ It really looks great, especially when ridden by blood elves. :P
