Crusader's Coliseum progress report

Raid night.
Crusader's Coliseum 10 man.
All bosses down except Anub'arak.
Everyone full of confidence for the raid.
All set, we talk to the guy there to make the floor collapse, nothing happens, and he disappears.

We didn't quit. After about 30-40 minutes the NPC reappeared, we engaged Anub'arak, and one-shot him! It was the first time we ever one-shotted a boss we had never tried before. I was also happy because I was #1 on healing again, but I was healing the MT, so it should be no big deal, I hope. Still, it's a huge difference against other healers (numbers 2 and 3).


1 day later (after the reset), we went to Crusader's Coliseum 10 again, and cleared the whole place in 1 hour and a few minutes!

 

The guild had 2 teams clearing the place that night, and after the other team was done too, we joined both groups together, got a few more members who were bored with the fact they didn't get a spot in the raids, and attempted the 25-man version, with 24 people. Everyone pulled their weight (to compensate the fact that some people are still a bit undergeared for it), and we downed Northrend Beasts.



Loot wise, I got 3 new items just in these couple of days. Really nice upgrades to help me boost my performances even more:

[Helmet of the Crypt Lord] dropped from Anub'arak in ToC 10.
It's now fully gemmed with the best: Insightful Earthsiege Diamond, Quick King's Amber, and enchanted with Arcanum of Burning Mysteries.

[Belt of the Ice Burrower] dropped from Northrend Beasts in ToC 25.
Gemmed with Energized Eye of Zul, and a Quick Dragon's Eye on the extra socket provided by a belt buckle.

[Nobundo's Handguards of Conquest], acquired by exchanging 30 Emblems of Triumph at the Emblem Gear Vendor.
Gemmed with a Quick King's Amber, and enchanted with +28 Spell Power, and it also allowed to get the "Set Bonus (2)", which raises my Riptide heals by 20%.

(Sorry about the orange links, they're not Legendary. Don't know how to change the HTML for blue/purple links.)


My current stats are as shown (with Water Shield and Earthliving). They're really balanced at the moment. SP, MP5, and Haste seem to be right where I want them for now (even though I'm still aiming for more Haste, to reduce my cast times slightly more).


Crusader's Coliseum 10 is now on farm, and from now on, we're gearing ourselves up in there, until Icecrown Citadel. We will slowly start doing Heroic modes too, we're on fire! Wish us luck! :)

  1. Congratulations. One question though, how do you make the pictures so big?
