Vid are the Shadows!

I am soooo bored with my main character Vidarius. Like a lot, lot. So bored that I specced Raid Shadow. I don't bother with PvP specs because I just don't care enough.

But you is teh Squishbot! Where will I go for healy goodness?

I have every piece of heal gear imaginable with the exception of the new badge gear for Kara and Heroics (unfortunately all my guild runs, ZA works, but healing in there sucks like a two dollar hooker at happy hour to borrow a phrase from my favorite wrog) So healing as shadow just requires some more attention and mana conservation.

I have the heal gear, what I don't have is the shadow gear. I have a paltry 740 +shadow dmg, even if I'm at the hit cap (For more on this see Spicytuna's breakdown of the hit cap http://spicytunas.wordpress.com/2008/01/31/spellhit/).

Is it gonna make things a pain in the butt for a guild that tends to be healer-light anyways? Perhaps. Am I gonna be stuck healing as a shadow priest a lot of the time? You bet your arse I will. But you have to do whatever stops the boredom.

I have been running through Kara without any foreseeable goal for far too long now; I dig my guildies, they rock; we have a solid core of 15-ish people who know what they're doing but have a great deal of scheduling issues and we try to work around it. We also have about 40 tards who wouldn't know the business end of a Wolfslayer's Rifle if they were being beaten over the head with it. I'll probably spend half my time in vent chastising their goofy asses as usual, but at least I'll have a reason not to heal them /malevolentgrin.
