So, to say that my initial impression of raiding as Survival is positive, might be a little bit of an understatement.
I am a trap dancing, explosive shot spamming, mana replenishing, agility stacking DPS machine.
I find my SV build to be less effective for trash pulls. But as good or better than my BM build in boss fights. I pushed a personal best 3400 DPS on 10 Man Patchwerk, and I feel like it can only go up from there. The next step will be changing some gems and enchants around to optimize stats.
Last night we cleared out the Plague and Construct Quarters in one shot, except for Grobbulus when someone lagged out and released a poison cloud in the center, wiping the raid. Gluth dropped both the Bands of Anxiety and the Tier 7 Leg token. My heart started to race before I realized the Resto Shaman didn't have his 2 piece bonus yet. Legs shammy, wrists Gringott.
The Bands are really a sidegrade from the Interwoven Scale Bracers, but after spending half the raid missing 1% of my shots from not getting either Draenei's Heroic Presense buff, the extra hit and crit made them feel like an upgrade.
More Naxx this weekend, and I hope to have WoWwebstats up and running for some hard data.
