WOW – A Burn-out Break

Last week I informed the raid leaders that I would be taking a 2-week break from raiding. The second time in WOW that I have taken a break, the first time was when Dark Horizons disbanded. I have dipped in a few times to run Eirebull through instances and to use her transmute cooldown, she got her first transmute proc when 1 primal earth turned into 4 primal water! 1 of these waters subsequently turned into 2 air so the primal bank is looking quite healthy at the moment (though not so healthy as after a day of dailies).

The guild had got Vashj down for the first time Sunday 11th May, a breakthrough for the guild and repeated the exercise last night. She has gone down twice now and I haven’t taken part in either of them. Funny, as soon as the breakthrough happened I burnt out. The raid last Monday was disheartening, Loctite was in foul form and refuses to consider that the new guildies might not get concepts the first time. There is a lack of communication in fwehealers and without Nessus coordinating the pallies things were a bit confused.

What really hurts is the lack of understanding for the new guys.

Leadership qualities I look for in a raid lead
Demanding yet understanding
Driven yet flexible
Fair and clear
Committed

one bit of good news. Nexxus promoted Revenbo to officer, I think this good for the guild, he has an excellent manner with people and ticks all the boxes above.
