25/01/2012 - First night night on this was last week, best effort of 5%, carried over the ID this week and down he went. Lots of 5% wipes but in the end, we got him. We are pleased to get this completed on 25 man, as well as 10, before the nerfs hit at the end of the month. Great work from everyone involved.

02/01/2012 - Well that was underwhelming.... few attempts the night before, 1.6% best, then back we go, and in under an hour, Deathwing is dead, and Dragon Soul is completed. Likely the easiest end boss we ever faced. However, was a good effort from all to get all of DS completed. Look forward to some Heroic modes next! - First Kill Archive

Raid Rx: How to be the world's worst healer - Fri, 27 Jan 2012 18:00:00 EST
Time to take a break from trying to be an awesome healer. It just feels much easier to be the best at being the bottom of the barrel. Without any concerns, you can simply play however you like with no fear. There are multiple steps on the road to being an excellent healer for your raiding guild. As you might expect, the same applies to being the worst healer.
Note: You shouldn't actually do any of these, as they're the exact opposite of the way you should be playing. I would like to add that I've seen parts of this list in action throughout the years in my experiences.

The Light and How to Swing It: All Hands on deck - Fri, 27 Jan 2012 17:00:00 EST
I still remember how great the news was when, in the run-up to Wrath of the Lich King, we were told that some of our Blessing spells were going to be converted to a whole new tier of temporary buffs that could be used situationally. This was something that the paladin community had been clamoring for for a very long time. There were just so many Blessings, and it didn't make sense for all the various offerings to be in the same tier.
Then, over time, our hard-fought victory was forgotten, as well as the whole idea of proactively lending a Hand -- sorry, there are going to be a lot of hand puns -- to your groupmates or fellow raiders. Where it used to be a common facet of paladin-ing (in any flavor) to use your then-Blessings as actively as possible, in the last few years, it's more become a characteristic of the min-maxers and the obsessive.
Your Hands aren't like Turn Evil. They actually can serve a vital purpose, even making the difference between a wipe or a kill in some cases. Indeed, I would posit that one of the dividing lines between good paladins and great paladins (regardless of spec) is how intelligently they use their Hands.

Would removing legendaries be a benefit for the World of Warcraft? - Fri, 27 Jan 2012 16:00:00 EST
Coming hand in hand with these legendary items are the issues of imbalance that they cause. In PvE, terminology has started to crop up that puts legendary and non-legendary DPS into two separate categories of competitiveness. Concepts exist such as "enhancement shaman are currently one of the top non-legendary DPS specs..." -- a category that encompasses only 10 of the 22 DPS classes in the game. In PvP, concerns about burst damage have arisen, which was a big factor in the nerf to DTR that came in 4.3.
The issues with legendaries
Legendaries cause a balance problem, and that's a problem that's been exacerbated by two things in Cataclysm: a horrifically wide spread of specs that can use them, with 12 specs or five classes in total having access to legendary weapons right now, and incredible ease of access to legendaries (for the heroic raider).
