Ahhh, happy Monday all.

You all had a good weekend, what you been up to?

Me?

Well glad you asked (hehehe, always talking to myself) Saturday went well, ZG unlocked so I figured it was time to go hunt for the mounts, my brother was online so he decided to join me on for the hunt. First target as always is Gahz’ranka on the hunt for the Tome of Polymorph:  Turtle which is an auction house favourite (500-800g) which isn’t bad for about 10 minutes work (catching the mudskunks and then dealing with him), and again this boss obliged with the book and a smattering of BoE’s (nice bonus for the enchanter alts).

Next onto High Priest Thekal – y’know this fight is really growing on me, getting the timing right solo is one thing, but getting the timing right for due attempting is another thing all together, but after a couple of them rezzing, we managed to put him down once and for all, joy of joys, it was there, yes the bloody tiger dropped – we’d previously agreed that we’d greed all loot we wanted – and thankfully we both kept to that – I rolled a bloody 16, on the mount, the one I’ve been “banging on” about (seriously you ask anyone who I know), yes you guessed it – I lost the roll, I had the Swift Zulian Tiger, right there in my grasps, I didn’t ninja it – I just did the honest thing and lost the roll (wow aren’t I the nice guy?).

The final boss in here (on our visit) was Bloodlord Mandokir, who drops the Swift Razzashi Raptor – this one is quite easy solo, in a group it’s very different – he dumps aggro and charges the next nearest (well thats how it seems) so my brother in kitty form took a battering when he dumped my aggro and charged, but we mage it through with little bother, and wait for it………. no mount (like both would drop in one run eh?). So nothing shiney for me then – or so I thought, cue the telephone – my brother, willing to trade the tiger (as I’d clearly, desperately wanted the tiger, in exchange for the tome that dropped earlier, and the understanding that I’d go far another one for him!).

So as you can see, it was a no brainer, I accepted and tigger was mine.

Sunday was the usual  raid evening – a trip to Ulduar 10 man (we’re gearing up ready for ToC 10 man – which frankly is gunna be chuffing awesome), we had an amazing run one shotting Flame Leviathan, Razorscale, XT-002 Deconstructor, Kologarn & Ignis the Furnace Master – and 3 shotting another new boss for us The Assembly of Iron – the achievements also came in pretty fast.

A productive run, unfortunately littered with hunter/shammy drops (bloody mail) and not a single one in the raid. however I did get one shiney item, Lady Maye’s Sapphire Ring which was a nice upgrade. Our final round up for the evening was a quick jaunt to onyxia, it’s nice loot and a relatively short run, we one shotted her without much fuss (yeah sure we lost a couple – but hey it happens sometimes) and my lucky dice continued as I won the head, the resulting quest dropped a very nice ring – Polished Dragonsslayer’s Signet so all in all I was pretty chuffed with the weekend.
