Shiny drums

*Cue Drums*

Yesterday was patch-day. WHAT???? *&$%!

/clears throat

Ahem. Yes, the new content patch dropped yesterday and no, like every other freakin content patch for 3 and 1/2 years, I was not prepared. Fail. And neither was Blizzard, which is also normal so I don't feel so alone. (World Server is down? What a surprise!)

Patch notes aside, (they're never interesting and usually contain nerfs that get bitched about for weeks before and after), they did do a couple of things I'm happy about. (The nerf to Prayer of Healing is not one of them.) New non combat pets, faster slow mounts, more reasons to joust (/cry buckets of angel tears) and new fancy shiny hooker boots...I mean badge gear. This is a good thing.

I raid. I raid too much in my opinion but considering how little I play anymore its really not, 4 hours per week max. I still have craptastic gear. Blues. Bleh. Ulduar is next Friday. New patch, new raid aside Ulduar is the point of focus for the Knights Who Say Ni. With Ni Radio in the background and drunk people in the forground it will be a very good time. But I still have blues. This is a problem. Or it was. Now that there is easyily farmable badge gear (circa TBC Sunwell gear). All my little butt has to do is sit down for two hours a day for about 4-6 days, run a couple of heroics and collect phat loots like crit pants and a T8.5 helm. Then Ulduar will fear me. Or I'll fall out of my seat again when I drive the tank the wrong way into a building cause I'm laughing too hard. Either way the stress is gone.

But there are still buckets and buckets of angel tears. That's ok, I can throw them from the side of my new faster slow mounts. (Just typing that is fun!)

Ok back to The Angel's Game! Old time Barcelona FTW.
