Pretty much more of the same.

Aacr, Searsi and Exemel - each gained a level or so. Ex hit 30 which means he got his air totem, relic, and now has the very nice one-button totem drop.

Ency - ending up going with the cape. I decided going with something that absolutely would make it all the way to Cataclysm made the most sense. And due to her recent developed +hit issues, she picked up a new trinket.

Scea - is progressing nicely. Pick up her some t9 gloves to go with her pants. She is probably going to be the first of my toons to get everything she needs from triumph badges.

Mel - had a really bad experience on Saturday (a PoS run where I pretty got the blame for everyone taking too long to get the boss down and 2 HoR attempts - one failed, the second one I left before it started). A nice confidence builder yesterday though was an absolutely smooth ToC run.

I am getting better, but I still sometimes give the people in PUGs too much credit.

I am really liking the new armory features. Esp the idle animations. LOL

Roszdhu had an amazing week. On January 8th she ran Ahn'kahet and got Volazj's Sabatons. It was such a quick and easy pug she had time and went back into LFG... and got VH with a lvl 80 tank who rocked. So we did it twice! She got Plate Claws of the Dragon and Void Sentry Legplates ... so basically she went from all greens to having three awesome blues in one evening! She also hit lvl 76. Her enchanting is stalled until she finds a blacksmith to make her a new elementium rod. She has the bars but needs time to stand around asking for on in trade.

Roszrig has run Mauradon a few times in LFG. He is lvl 43. He also became an artisan miner this week. He worked on jewelcrafting but is only at 148 due to running out of gems and things to prospect. He really needs a new shield.

Roszmairta hasn't done a thing. I'm still paralyzed about being a tank/healer on her. Hopefully as some guildies are in their early 60s we can do some guild runs to try and get her more comfortable about her skillz.

Holirosz worked on her engineering some and did a fairly lame LFG pug of Stocks.

Roszinha hasn't run anything this week but she has gotten some new gear from my other toons.

Roszbanc, my former bank toon, hit lvl 17 and is questing in Westfall. She ran Rage Fire Chasm and got some new gear. The Tumultuous Cloak from her back of helpful items is better than the cloak that drops from the boss. This just seems wrong since young Hordies run RFC again and again until they get that cloak which is bis for just about everyone.

My new bank toon, Mirarosz is a lvl 6 Nelf who is currently just hanging out in Dal doing bank things.

No one but me seems to be on /libchat which makes me sad when I'm on my non-guild toons.

My latest craziness elsewhere is that I started a new Troll DK over on Wyrmrest Accord to be part of a role play group. I can't believe I now have five DKs! (I was holding out for Cataclysm before making another.)

I know how you feel about being to heal...

With Melvyl, I didn't understand everything (probably still don't) but I had a good handle on it by the time I hit 80. With Aacr and Exemel both leveling resto, I get to see the differences between druid and shaman healing and how they relate to a Holy Paladin.

I haven't tried it on Sceadua just because I don't really want to start at 80. I am actually considering leveling another priest at least partway just to get some practice.

I love the new Armory, too. It is no nice to be able to actually see (and show) what your characters look like. And the activity feed inspired me to create a new twitter account @melvyl to try some experiments with.

Ooh, how do you do the twitter thing? I found the making an rss feed from the armory but couldn't figure out how to hook that into twitter.
