Achievement Points: 12205

Honorable Kills: 31130

Bosses killed in Dragon Soul normal: 8 :)

Item level equipped: 388

Three big things happened this week;

- I finished off Deathing both in Raid Finder (Fall of Deathwing) and normal difficulty (Destroyer's End),

- I finally got exalted with Hydraxian Waterlords, and

- I earned the achievement Bloody Rare after spending quite some time in Hellfire looking for Vorakem Doomspeaker and Mekthorg the Wild.

Release and Run defeated Madness of Deathwing in normal mode

A new wing opened in Baradin Hold, so the guild went there to kill Alizabal. While we were there anyway I made them do Occu'thar with me as well, so I could get the achievement. ;) This was my 9th kill of him (her? it?), but all the previous ones were before they added the achievement.

I spent my first 4.3 Valor Points this week as well, on the necklace Cameo of Terrible Memories. There doesn't seem to be a heroic neck this tier, so this would be BiS.

I also had new bracers made for all the four hunters in the guild (two hunters in each team): Bracers of the Hunter-Killer. The name is awful, but the stats are hot! We have a nice "share the love"-economy policy in the guild, so all the gold earned in late 4.2 is now being spent on good BOE's for everyone.

But this wasn't all, I also obtained a really cool staff with a really cool proc: Kiril, Fury of Beasts. As it's a melee weapon I would have prefered our guild-kitty Marilill to get this, but she wasn't present unfortunately. The proc is: Your melee and ranged attacks have a chance to trigger Fury of the Beast, granting 107 Agility and 10% increased size every 1 sec. This effect stacks a maximum of 10 times and lasts 20 sec. The visual proc is shown in the pictures below, attack of the giant woman:

I also got 7 upgrades for my PVP-set, most with honor points, one with conquest points and one from Alizabal. All in all I did a lot of enchanting, reforging and transmogging this week!

Speaking of transmogging, as I wrote in the last post, I've already grown tired of tier 6 and Golden Bow of Quel'thalas. So I did some browsing on Wowhead, some armorystalking and played around with Model Viewer for a bit. I finally settled for Nerubian Hive, which is a leatherworking set from WOTLK, together with Black Bow of the Betrayer, dropped by Illidan in Black Temple. I like the outcome! It's a toned down look. I can picture Lae running quickly, but silently, through the woods, well camouflaged. The colours and style appeal to me, not extreme in any way, just a plain hunter look. I'm planning for a crossbow to go with this look (the bow is a bit big and might get caught in the trees ;)).

Draenei hunter Laeleiweyn's new transmogged look. Set is Nerubian Hive with Black Bow of the Betrayer.

Tomorrow is reset day, and we'll start working on heroic Morchok. Should be fun!
