The Egotistical Priest

in the World of Warcraft gaming universe.

If only it weren’t November…
If only it weren’t NaNoWriMo…
I would write a post answering Tomo’s excellent emails regarding what the new “no stacking” rules will do to the viability of the Divine Spirit buff. I’d give examples of the other spells that buff spell power, and show which ones are going to overwrite the DS buff. I’d give my opinion on how the dual speccing will lead to some priests speccing just for DS, and then swapping into a deep holy build for actual healing.
Or Tomo’s OTHER excellent email, wanting to discuss the details of the new talent trees, and the viability for certain builds depending on situation. I’d finish the post I started on how awesome Serendipity is as a Holy talent and why I believe it’s one of the best new priest talents available.
I’d give a shout out to the author of the Spot the Cat and Cuddles the Ravager Saga emails that I’ve been getting, because I’ve been incredibly amused by every single one of them even though I don’t have time to properly respond to them.
I’d talk about preparing for Wrath, making sure people knew that there were TWO starting zones - one accessible from Stormwind and one from Menethil (you’ll have to talk to someone else for the horde starters, but I’m guessing there’s one from Orgrimmar and one from Undercity) and how the one from Menethil will probably be less populated than the Stormwind one.
I’d talk about how excited I am to start new five mans, and how I’m at least a little bit disappointed that I’ll miss out on the fun of getting all new gear right off the bat (and how I realize that if the only thing I have to QQ about is that my current gear is too shiny, I should just shut up and play).
I’d talk about how Hanners has been changing the alt text on the sidebar image every week and nobody’s noticed yet.
I’d talk about rhinos and how irritating I think the knockback will be for me as a player, but how I’m going to try it anyway. I’d talk about how much I hate the gorilla butt-scratching animation. I’d talk about how I want them to put the flying vanity pets back at a higher flight path so my moth isn’t skittering willy-nilly across the floor like a slowly exploding cockroach.
BUT
But it IS November, and it is NaNoWriMo, and I don’t have time to do the research necessary for those posts. Instead, you get a big long list of post topics that I may or may not ever get around to writing, and I’m going to go try and knock out a few more sprints with Bre from GLDC to get my NaNoWriMo word count up.

@Vonya - I picked up the bow in ZA to replace the one from Prince. Which meant I had to get a new scope, which meant I had to replace my leg armor patch to try and offset the stat loss on the bow. That gave me time to level “Magilla” the gorilla to 70 while grinding out 8 primal airs. You just know that all is going to be fine while tanking 4 elementals Magilla takes time to scratch his butt
I have 1 more raid left I think before wotlk, so tonight Ill get a raptor since I just dont think the female GM of the guild will appreciate the humor of a good butt scratch in the midst of a boss fight. Then again she might, but I won’t risk that wrath … Ill take Arthas anyday
The raptor will be a temp one, I dont have time to go find the promised orange one and level it but I will keep that promise.

Geesh, one of the main reasons I come here is to see what new alt text is on the sidebar image.

Omg! I’ve actually put in GM tickets about the flying vanity pets. I can’t stand my white moth flying in the ground, and he’s my favorite pet. My baby frost wyrm better not be broke when Wrath hits!

You don’t need to give Tomo all that credit. Now I gotta hear HIS gloating over my shoulder for a good month (or two?) Yeah we know each other.
@_@
Only thing I look forward is the holiday. Trying to slim down before i get fat again.

I didn’t gloat, I just went over to his desk and said “Hey! Check Ego Priest!” while smiling.. and kept smiling while he read it <_<;;

@Tomo
Fairly certain that is gloating.
Not that there is anything wrong with gloating.
