NEWSFLASH: Disc Priests Don't Heal

I recently bit the bullet and decided to join a guild (More on that later). After healing a quick 10 man ICC run on the third string team today, the raid leader asks me on vent: "Do Disc priests actually heal? I mean...I thought you just put up shields".

Seriously. Just shoot me now. Every other guild on this server is desperately recruiting disc priests. And this is what I end up with? Do I actually heal. I...have no words.

A few minutes later, he was asking on vent if anyone needed a daily random for frost badges. I sweetly responded that I would offer to heal it, but seeing as Disc Priests don't heal, I couldn't imagine how I would be much use to them.

I IZ NOT FAILZ HEALZ!

You know those rare times in life when you actually shock yourself?

Happened to me last night. I successfully solo healed an OS 3d zerg.

Yeah, yeah, I know: no big deal right? We are all over-geared to hell for that raid anyway so there is obviously a problem if folks CAN'T get the zerg done. I've done the zerg thang on Mage!Btich several times without bothering to put down my coffee cup.

But never in my wildest dreams did I think I would EVER be able to solo heal that sucker. Ever.

Call me pessimistic. Ok, call me less than optimistic. Call me unconfident. Jesus, I heal 25man ICC raids, so you'd think that this zerg thing wouldn't be such a big deal. I guess in my mind, that was like a healing right of passage...like only the seriously beast healers could solo heal that sucker. I am probably wrong, and those beast healers are probably out there laughing at my extreme state of golly-gee-look-mom-I-did-it! But whatever. For now, I am simply going to enjoy my victory...and my spiffy new title. rawr!
