Absolutely! -Got mine last night as well! Grats! Feels awesome to have a legendary that's actually current content, I've never been able to dream of that before; they were something for organised guilds only! >One side note - I was totally wrong on the faction phasing on the 4 >celestial bosses.

Took 3 hours to get a group through due to Horde PvP griefers. >The grief is that flagged Horde go into the fray when we would pull, and >get one of the 20+ people to hit them, which no matter how hard you >tried not to, someone would accidentally do it.

This combined with the PvP quests/tokens to earn Blood spirits (?) >encourages the griefers....grrrrr (Although the mount you can buy from >the vendor does look cool) Ouch, that sounds crazy :-/ Hopefully the idiots will get bored soon, thankfully was none of that when I did those bosses. >Anyway, the wings that appear on the cloaks are very cool, but different >for each spec. The healers get ones that look more like the Crane, my >mage got ones that look like the serpent. My friend who tanked last >night got his with mine and he gets an Ox head that appears instead of >the wings. I haven't seen the melee dps tiger one yet. Yeah, seen a few serpents and one ox around, no tigers so far (haven't noticed any cranes other than my own one tbh). Love the impact the proc makes, I ran a couple of ToT LFRs this morning and it was 7-9% of my healing done (I'm assuming "Spirit of Chi-Ji" is the resdistribute overheals to people who need it proc, very useful one!) >After getting our cloaks, we went to check out the boss over the broken >bridge. LMAO! we got to the end of the bridge and when you get right >to the edge, you get floated over to the other side. The two of us took >out a couple of the mobs there just to check it out and get a look >inside, then decided to head back. We ran at the bridge expecting to >get floated over to the other side....except...no float in that >direction...There is however a sudden stop at the bottom. (Embarrassed >as a mage that I was in my off spec and my slow fall was in a different >spot and I couldn't find and click it fast enough! lol) We were in >vent laughing our asses off because I had enough time to yell >"SHIT!-SHIT!-SHIT!! - WHERE THE........f@ck" :) Hahaha oops :-D I'm off to have a look around over there myself shortly, maybe that'll be the one part of the island that's only slightly overcrowded... :-P
