Knowing absolutely nothing about how to play a raiding char. So as I was climbing my levels I ignored all the potency, crit mit and crit bonus gear because I didn't want to lose Bane Warding from my T3 shard armor. So I got moved to low priority backup raid force for sucking. And then put on the alt raid force. And then the alt raid force closed because the guy who was leading it quit the guild without telling anyone why. So I worked really hard and improved my reliability and made a few friends and finally made main raidforce in mid October 2010 after one of the four full time raid shaman ragequit in the middle of a Waansu pull and I got his spot. Then I ''almost'' lost it again because an old guildy returned, but he decided he'd rather be MT Shaman on our second raid force. I became the caster group shaman. Our troubador loved me because a well timed Ritual of Alacrity and Stampede of the Herd and he was usually around #6 on the raidwide DPS parse. On November 15, 2010, we made our first hard mode kill, putting Waansu down. It was an insane rush, but... let's just say that we've got a lot of work to do before contemplating getting a flawless over him. Next up, Maalus Imbued. We dropped him on 12/1. Penda & Kendis United and Toxxulia both down sometimes in late December/early January 2011. Also, flawless victory over every easy mode mob except Theer, Perah'Celsis and Haraakat the Seer got Haraakat in Jan 11. As of February 11, moved into Underfoot Depths and have dropped the first three (Ritualist Squilak, Master Syfak, Rathgar). We got Uthgar and co a few days later, and on the last raid of the expansion got 3 Sages Hardmode. Destiny of Velious raiding turned out to be kind of boring. We cleared all the easy mode stuff, and haven't been able to make much headway into hardmode because we're having trouble with raid attendance and raider turnover. And as of late September 2011 I had to step down from active raiding because real life is being stupid and annoying. Full time again as of early 2012.
