Healers... the neck of a raid?

Ok a couple of updates. First of all, I haz a new dress, Phaelia's Vestments of the Sprouting Seed.

I cannot believe that I am wearing the most famousest resto druid evah's dress! Phaelia was one of the earliest supporters of my blog nearly two years ago, so its quite exciting for me to be wearing her dress. It makes me want to be a better and smarter tree, or at least a nicer one. Will I be able to do complicated spirit and mana regen calculations on the fly wearing this dress? One can only hope...one can only hope.

Secondly, a funny shot after we got Hodir down. Breld's hip thrusts right behind Vel and I disturbs me a bit...

Finally we had one night of raiding where I was once again the raid leader (previous experience with raid leader-ing here). Let's see how the rest of the raid reacted to this:

Ah, I've taught them well, I've taught them well. No, but seriously I do think it just comes a bit more naturally for tanks to be leading raids. However here's my interpretation on tanks and healers in a raid, based on this Chinese proverb:

A tank may be the head of a raid, but the healer is the neck that turns the head.

Hee hee. :)

  1. Re: the proverb

    Both the original and your interpretation are entirely true, as I am the "head" in both scenarios and can attest to it.

  3. One more quick point, it looks as though Joni is in line to take the brunt of the hip thrusts.

    Just saying.

  4. @Khol - DPS = Any part of the body that gets things done.

    In that case, I vote that DPS is the penis. We get the f@#king done.
