More Blooding...

The majority of raids she's been on have wound up with her doing not a whole lot of good.[right][snapback]83094[/snapback][/right]

Raids blow if you're a healer. You sit around and do nothing more than a HoT here and there and a shield on mage. One Baron run, the pally had auto-heal mod turned on and so I wasn't even allowed to heal and things were dead before I got two spells off. Don't judge your healing by how little you are doing through most of the majority of the raids. When you get to the final boss battles, then you may actually be doing something (although we did have a UBRS raid where the third healer neither healed (even when the two other priests died) nor did damage and had to have one of the other priests buff her group because she hadn't gotten the rank 2 of prayer of fortitude yet (which I cannot blame her for) ), but almost all the raids Aleri has been on, I feel like a complete bump on a log, especially if I haven't been there often and no one gives me time to scope out upcoming pulls or get my shackling targets.

Also, I'm not very psyched to do Onyxia. It doesn't seem to be the kind of thing I'd enjoy, and I long ago reconciled myself to not seeing much of the end game hardcore content. I'll get around to Onyxia someday, but I'd feel bad if anyone took time out from having fun to make it happen.

The only reason I am getting the blood is so I don't stand in the way of those who are psyched to do Onyxia. After watching the fight on GG's screen the time he went, I'm even less worried about getting in and fighting the overgrown lizard. It seems rather boring and tedious to me, but I don't want others to not be able to go because there aren't enough healers who are keyed. So I'm trying to get my blood to help out others. I don't think I'm going to bother getting my blood with Eth though. There's no point in it for her.
