Another reason to love (or hate) Druids

Posted on August 20, 2008 by Megalis

I was checking out my Google Analytics traffic data just now and noticed that my post on Durn the Hungerer was getting some traffic from search engines.  And that reminded me of something that I did a couple of weeks ago.

I was cruising around Oshu’gun doing the Multiphase Survey and killing Clefthooves for Clefthoof Meat for the cooking daily when I happened upon none other than old Durn himself.

Now, if you play a Druid you probably already know what I was thinking at that point.  If there is one thing I pride myself on as a Druid above all others, it’s our ability to take things down that nobody else could.  Solo.

So yeah, I sat down and ate some Grilled Mudfish, popped an Agility Potion, checked my cooldowns and charged in.

I used everything at my disposal to keep myself alive. Lifebloom.  The amazing Barkskin/Tranquility combo.  The instant cast regrowth granted by the 2-piece T5 bonus. Frenzied Regeneration. Health and Mana Potions.  Innervate.  The Regeneration ability on the Spyglass of the Hidden Fleet.  I really went all out.

At one point I seem to remember my hit points being under 100.  At another point, someone flying past stopped and looked like they were going to jump into the fight which would have totally ruined it for me.  I stopped fighting and quickly /yelled “DON’T HELP!”

In the end?  I got him.  A couple of people had stopped to see what the commotion was all about and they all /cheered me after he was dead.  I bowed and thanked everyone and finished my dailies.

Another “Yeah, I soloed that” moment under my Druid belt.
