This is a World of Warcraft rant. There, I’ve warned you. I don’t need to hear any “Oh, I know nothing about the game” things now, because you’ve been warned! (I’m being silly, not bitchy. Just so you know, haha.)

Anyway, poor Kimberia is really the reason I’m in a rut. I have a lot of decisions to make, and all of them depend on other decisions. It’s very complicated, but let me spell it out for you.

Okay, a little while back I was having some issues deciding between priest specs for her. I was shadow to level, then went to a hybrid holy/disc because I thought I’d be more useful, enjoy it more and feel like I had a place. But instead, I ended up feeling worse and went back within the same day. I’m still shadow. Full shadow.

The question I’m having now is whether to stay shadow. I want to. I enjoy doing DPS and when I’m not having to heal, I’m less prone to panic attacks. Instead of someone living being the deciding factor as to whether I’ve failed, it’s if something dies, I’ve succeeded. It just feels better and I don’t feel so responsible for someone else’s play-time.

Judging by that last paragraph, you’d think it’d be easy. You’d think, hey, you want to stay shadow, stay shadow. But if staying shadow means that I have no possibilities in the game, what’s the point?

I’m trying to figure out where my place is in my guild right now - I obviously enjoy their company very much and I loved raiding with them before The Burning Crusade came out. With the new 25-man teams, though, I feel like I have no place anywhere. I need to figure out if there’s room on a team within my guild (I believe there’s 5 different teams within the guild) for me, and whether they’ll take me as a shadow priest.

This goes on to my decisions. I need to decide between two rings from The Violet Eye. The rings can be seen here. If I’m going to be shadow, I’ll want to go the path of the Violet Mage, while if I’m going to be holy/disc and healing again, I’ll need to go the path of the Violet Restorer.

Also, visiting Shattrath City, I have a decision I’ve been putting off for far too long. I need to choose between Aldor and Scryer. If I stay shadow, it appears Aldor is the way to go. If I go holy/disc, however, I should go Scryer.

Oh, but the fun doesn’t stop there. No way. I have to choose which path of tailoring I want to take, as well. Again, it depends on my spec (which depends on my group for Karazhan). If I stay shadow, the Frozen Shadoweave set is fabulous. But, if I go holy/disc, Mooncloth is the way to go.

Is it any wonder that I have a splitting headache right now? I thought not.

Go to Google and type in “Words Unspoken”. Look what the first result is! Stupid, I know. But I’m excited! You’d think it’d come up later on or something, because of all the lyrics, but hey, I’m certainly not complaining.
