Tales of Mage

Hello Everyone. I hope all had a great Holiday spending time with family and friends all the while getting slightly fatter off of turkey and all the trimmings. With that being said, onto today's article.

WotLK Content Cleared...I'm Bored

My guild has had all content cleared for about 3-4 weeks now and to be honest I'm suffering from burnout allready. I honestly did not expect to hit the wall this soon, but with raiding being so easy and the extremely painfull experience it is to be a healer (priest specifically) in Arena/PVP right now, for the first time in my four plus years of what I would consider "hardcore" playing, I dont really want to log on.

Adding to my feeling of "blah", is the fact that these past couple of weeks have been the first time that I have been a healer and an officer in a very active guild. You see, for all of Vanilla WoW and BC, I was a either a warlock or a rogue. Focusing on the damage meters and having little concern for anything else. I hit the boss until he died, and I was damn good at my job; however, healing is a different animal. Now, I am in charge of ensuring that nobody dies at any point during a Naxx run and other behind the scenes tasks, setting up priest buffs, assigning healers, etc. I think that I would be fine if it werent for the swift criticism that comes from the other officers (who are a Tank/4DPS) and members alike about "WTF i didnt get any healz", Like I am standing there with my thumb up my ass.

I am not completely sure what is causing my current lack of passion with the game. Perhaps it is being an officer, perhaps it is raiding 4 nights a week, or something else. Either way I'm discouraged.

With that being said, I am considering a couple of options:

1) Level/Re-Roll an alt. Perhaps a "stress free" DPS class. Although I have no idea which class to do so with.

2) Take a couple of weeks off.

3) Bump down my raiding committment to 2-3 nights a week.

4) Demote myself from an officer position to a regular member.

What do you guys think?

P.S. I apoligize for the grammatical errors, horrible sentence structure for the article. I'm really tired which is adding to my overall "blah" mood.
