Never been in a certain instance, Heroic, or Raid? And worse yet, your a healer? Well theres ways to not fail!
First Tip: Ask for someone to explain the fights! Naturally, this wont always happen.
Second Tip: Read up on the fight or watch a YouTube video of it. Heck, you can come here for that! But this still isnt going to make you a master of the instance, Experience is better!
Well Neither tip is working? Dont fear! As a healer, those can only help so much!
Rule One: Be comfortable healing with that class. If you dont know how healing works then its a bad idea to que it! Practice healing yourself or level a alt to like 30 as a healer of this class. It'll teach you more then a blog can!
Rule Two: Rotations are best for dps, a healer must be flexiable! Some tanks need huge heals so you cant afford to start HoTing THEN heal!
Now that thats out of the way! What you been waiting for, how not to fail in the raid!
First thing to do is remember, Majority is most likely to be standing in the right spot! Dont listen to the asshole screaming orders, alot of times they dont know whats going on! So always stay with the range. When they move, move with!
Next, be a healer! You heal damage so you have plenty of chances to look around and get a look at where the boss is, whats popping up, and how its being handled.
If you see heavy AoE damage then use your AoE heals. Best thing to do is to switch between the 2 groups that are most likely set up. In most cases, the range are together somewhat and the melee are together. So, dont cut hairs! Target a tank, AoE heal then target yourself and AoE heal. Do this for whatever groups needs the most healing at the time or switch between the two if its about the same. Worry about the stray dps after you've got the bulk up to or around 75% health.
-If the fight requires everyone ranged abit then your best place is about the center area of the range or between range and melee! As a healer you have to hit everyone so being in corners with half the group out of your range wont do! During the fight your best bet is to heal as needed enless its AoE damage in which case you AoE as you can or toss quick heals or HoTs on each person depending which will be more effective due to spacing. If a AoE cant hit atleast 3 people then its useless no matter if your dps or heals!
Pop CDs! All except Hs can be useful to you! Your mana below 50%? why not hit a pot or a mana returning spell! Better to do when ya have the chance and need then when ya need the major healing! If ya got a huge AoE heal that has a few min CDs then use it when ya got a number of people dying or during heavy AoE. As far as hero goes, never pop it enless asked! This has a debuff of 10 mins and it shouldnt be wasted! Trinket CDs and the like work best when you'll be doing constant healing like during heavy damage. Waste not, want not!
Next, Common Sense. Stay out of AoEs. Again by watching your betters or majority you'll see how to avoid them and what you should and shouldnt take. If ya see people running behind a boss or pillar for an attack, follow! If ya see ooze at your feet, get out of it! And of course if you have aggro run TO a tank, not away. Some aggro will happen and sometimes its not something you can help but if you run like a idiot and make them chase you then your death is your fault.
Lastly is wiping. Never let a wipe be for nothing. One fight per boss is fine, it just means newer people got to see the fight! Dont get mad, just accept and do better!
I hope these tips help! I'll add more if I find more tricks! For now, I hope these will improve your experience in the game!

Erris The Collector
Okay... So Erris has SEVERAL pet possibilities. Flyers, Waters, Beast, and on and on... I believe there's about 5 different sets.
I've fought about 4 different so far.
In each fight I've found that its VERY easy to solo or two pet these. Especially since their not all rares, not always 25s, and follow a set pattern.
So instead of taking 20 posts to explain each and every fight (which is just use this type and leveling pets) im going to explain the quick and simple and offer explanations for each individual fight if requested.
First off: Have a 25 blue quality pet that is STRONG against most of her pets. Its usually atleast 2 of the same type.
Second, have a second 20+ (leveling pet) that is atleast NOT WEAK against the pets shes using. This will be your "alternate" pet for incase you really cant solo pet it or for that last bit of health.
Lastly, EXP! You can only fight her ONCE so there's no way to farm her like ya would the challenge post. But the exp is in the 3000s split between your pets. So for your last pet I HIGHLY suggest a leveling pet of any level. Just switch it in before finishing.
Make sure you use that safari cap! If your queuing its all good, its a buff now. No worry about switching out!
Some of my favorite pets for these fights are:
25 Moths (They all have the same attacks...) With Alpha Strike, Cocoon, and Moth Dust.
25 Nexus Whelping (Or other strong magical, I suggest with these attacks) Arcane storm (weather) and the magic Style rampage (Mana Surge for this pet, Major Boom Boom!)
25 Clefthoof (Basic beast will do honestly. Cant go wrong with ANY beast or pets with STRONG beast attacks! I suggest hard hitting over multiple strikes)
From my experience you cant do this on multiple characters (atleast not same server, same fraction. I haven't had time to level any horde up yet!)
Facts:
So she comes at random.
Her bag gives pets, leveling stones, and other junk!
It requires the Pet Building ( don't know if it HAS to be Level 2-3 but I HIGHLY suggest getting L3 anyway! More tokens usually and chances at MORE pets!).
Well, that's all for now. Happy Hunting!

Happy Happy Happy Winter's Veil! 2014
(Simply Posted over from other Blog, was my VERY last post! I'll be doing a new one for 2015 when the time comes. New post start Next Weds.!)
Happy Winter's Veil, Yall! (2014)
As you know its the time of year to get free loots.
So, without further staling, heres my update:
Im not making you a guide (We all know theres one hundred and one on WoW Head you can grab, why be redundent?) so instead of giving you some tricks and hints to exceling this year!
Alright, if you missed a year, your in luck! By doing the Daily "Your a Mean One..." you can get all those presents you missed in the stolen present! So as well as the pretty dagger (raised to Level 100!), pets (Rotten Helper and Lumpy), Misc (Fruit Cake, snowballs... Patterns...), you also get the Feat of Strength items from years before (The robot, footballs, BB gun, ect)! You get achievements as well! Be warned, nothing is promised so it'll take a number of tries!
My Hints:
Any alt 80+ go do it! EVERYONE is killing this thing so it'll be hard not find it dead or dying when you arrive. You dont have to tag, be in group or anything! Just grab a bag that appears and talk to the reindeer then head back.
~Can be done once per day per alt. If you have 10 alts, and 3 days to do it, thats 30 tries!
Be patient! Your getting free stuff everytime, dont be upset it you already had the gift or didnt get what you needed. Just sell and AH what you didnt need! Theres always someone else needing that item!
PRESENTS! As well as wrapping paper and special patterns and recipes, theres free LOOTS! On Christmas day you'll get a number of gifts from under the tree. You can get them on each alt. So 20 alts at 6 presents apiece, you can do the math! Some stuff is BoP, some BoE, some are unique toys and pets and all of its free. Cant complain about free!
My Hint:
Get all your alts there ahead of time. If you have lag issues try to do it at a low pop time or wait a few hours after they pop. Trust me. The tree will be swarmed at High Pop hours AS WELL AS WHEN THEY ARE OPENABLE! If you lag you will die to this! If you dont lag then you'll be watching a bad slide show. 100 people on each present will make it impossible to see the gifts too. So why waste your energy struggling at the peaks when you can snag them in the Off season?
My last hint? ENJOY! Its a time of free loot, fun, and enjoyment! Its CHRISTMAS TIME! So dont forget to enjoy your blessings outside the game and take a break. Be with your real family and friends within a hours drive. Then after Santa and the elves pass out from the eggnog you can game the night away with a pleasent buzz of holiday cheer!
So Ho Ho Ho! And a MERRY CHRISTMAS!
To my loyal readers, new and old! Be safe and happy as your characters never grow old!
Love always!
