I wish I had the screen shot of it, but in my first heroic as a tank the healer told me, "please put your tanking gear on". I didn't notice it until I was watching the video again. The quality is bad on the youtube version so you can't really see, but it's right after I start pulling. Obviously the run ended up going fine and since I proved I wasn't an idiot and he was able to keep me alive it didn't end up being a big deal.
The numbers the prefix my blog now stand for how many badges I've acquired. I was going to use my gear score, but it wasn't intuitive enough. Keep in mind, these are badges awarded from kills and does not include the bonuses from using the random dungeon tool. So in reality I've snagged a lot more than that, somewhere around 50ish.
The gearing up process has been really fast. Yesterday I ran a quick random heroic to get the daily out of the way and then I started farming regular ToC for The Black Heart. It took seven kills in total for it to drop which was longer than I was hoping, but I was able to grab a few other upgrades from there in the process so it wasn't a complete waste. My gear has gotten to the point where it's no longer that tough to keep me alive but my threat is shaky at times. I'm generally able to hold on to everything but it requires that I actually pay attention. Hopefully a weapon upgrade is in my near future. VH and ToC (heroic obviously) both have solid upgrades, as does regular Forge of Souls I just don't want to farm another regular instance and waste time that could be spent getting badges. Heroic Halls of Reflection has a great one that I'll be able to get eventually but I think my gear level still locks me out of there. Also Onyxis drops some nice polearms. So I guess we'll see what happens, my weapon is definitely the slot that could use some love the most.
As far as professions go, I've started leveling up enchanting. I got to 125 last night. Judging from prices on the AH I'll probably have to head to Outland to do some farming at some point since Arcane Dust are going for 10g each.
And finally I thought I'd end with a screen shot from an H UK run I did last night. This was after I'd had to chance to get some more gear so I wasn't super squishy anymore. The healer was a holy priest who healed almost exclusively with Holy Nova spam and was able to put out almost 1900 DPS. And yes, sadly that was more DPS than I did, everyone point and laugh.
