The King is Dead; Long Live the King!



We did it.  We finally did it  (I'm at the very top, closest to the pillar on Bolvar's right).  The kill brought about mixed feelings for me.  On one hand, I was exhilarated that I got to see Arthas fall and Frostmourne shattered.  On the other hand, I feel disappointed.  Disappointed that we did not get this kill sooner than we did.  Disappointed at the nights we lost because of others not having the courtesy to show up.  Disappointed in myself and my inability to mix execution with output.  For whatever reason, I can't execute a fight well and do my job of DPSing to the level I know I should be.  Maybe it's out of fear of making a mistake.  Maybe it's a confidence thing.  Who knows... 

Anyway, now that the Lich King is dead, one of my main goals have been accomplished.  I was planning on stepping down from 25 man raiding and just doing 10s for a Frostwyrm mount but with the recent attendance issues, I couldn't do that to my guild.  I know some of you will say 'Just do what you want to do, everyone else doesn't matter.', which would normally be the logical thing to do.  However, if you knew the kind of person I was, you'd see that doing something like that would be quite impossible.  If it means I have to go through raids not actively enjoying it so 24 other people will be able to do so, then so be it.  It just seems kind of skeevy to place my own selfish desires over the needs of the 24 other people who made this kill possible.

Also, yes, I know that the Hunter preview is up.  I will be commenting on that in due time.
