Nothing much has happened over the past week or so- I've got to finish off a piece of english coursework and that's about it. Only got 3 more days left of school though so that's a big bonus, then on friday I'm off for 2 weeks to Mauritius (somewhere in the caribbean I think) so that should be absolutely awesome.
Netherdrake!!!!!
On Sunday the 1st of July I got my Netherdrake, now, after much deliberation I (with a little help from Muda) decided to go for the Veridian Netherdrake. All I can say is I love it- looks so cool whenever I mount it.
Basically when you hit exalted you meet with the overlord (again) who says that you are the first one to reach the Overlord rank and that you will be meeting Illidan. After this he walks out and an image of illidan appears, after a brief conversation with the overlord Illidan traps you and leaves you to get owned, after this, the little gnome who is really a dragon in disguise rescues you and proceeds to take you to shattrah where the netherdrakes are.
Yes, the dragon is huge.After much deliberation I decided to go for the Veridian Nether drake, here are some screenies.
PvPAs I mentioned a while back- I've started to PvP again, I'm enjoying it quite a lot but still have a little bit to go before I can buy the new rewards with more resilience. I LOVE WF CRITS
Arena
Well, the Arena is still the same- Nagrand is still the best arena in my opinion, and since Enhancement shamans get CC'd so easily it can be hard sometimes
2v2
The 2v2 team I'm currently in and in charge of has me, Vanjet, Holyvirgin and Mythica. Myth is currently taking a long break at the moment, but, with the addition of a new healer (Holyvirgin), it seems to be going a lot better, when Van went with Holyvirgin (A.K.A craps) for a few matches our rating went up substantially, I feel that we can do quite a bit better in this.
3v3
Since the new season started, we haven't yet got together for a few good 3v3 matches, before season 2, the 3v3 team was the highest rated team I was in, I think that me, Ljung and Holyvirgin made a very powerful combination with the burst dps of me and Ljung and the healing capability of craps- again, I think we can do better in this.
5v5-Peanut Power
The 5v5 team just got started a week ago, in it are me, Hedrich,Pedropress,Holyvirgin,Hulkster,Zekro,Doomlord and most recently Saintanger. We played about 12 matches last week and ended up with a rating of 1371. The first week was pretty much a learning curve for everyone and still is, we have to learn to play to each others strengths and help each others weaknesses, for example, Hedrich and Pedropress work really well together, so we often leave them to take a couple of people out, me and Zekro are normally the ones just nuking their healers and saint/craps are healing. We have the standard MS warr (as is seemingly necessary in 5v5 teams) and both Hulkster and Doomlord both did very well last week.
This week however, I logged on pretty late on Sunday night to find that no arena games had been played for the 5v5 team (which I considered odd since me and zekro had already agreed for him to start playing without me). I started to try and get the group going, Zekro, Hedrich and pedro were all in, now all we needed was a healer- unfortunately craps wasn't online so we had to find a new healer- luckily Saintanger was a holy paladin who didn't have a 5v5 team and had just finished Steamvaults, so in he came.
Now surprisingly we did very well considering the lack of a MS warrior, we won the first few games (with a few lucky WF crits making short work of their healers thanks to yours truly) and decided to keep on playing the full 10 games. We ended up finishing the night on a 7-3 win-loss ratio. Very, very good in my opinion, so that boosted us up to 1443 rating. the Season 2 helm will be mine on wednesday!!.
Now, I have to say very well done Saintanger, he had never done any arenas at all and considering this, he did amazingly well.
So ends another week with a surprisingly good arena week. I'll try and update this before I go on holiday
/Aloran- loving the arena!!

Good that you are doing good in the arena. Think I will write something about PvP and arena in one of my posts, only doing 2v2 atm anyways. Though might try with Kip and Day in one team, already doing good in 2v2 with them, though they kinda suck as a combo :p (Need healer).
I just wondered about your specc for PvP, wouldn't http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=GZxi0dVMsA0qZt0et00o be good for PvP?
No dualwield, but NS, as you said 2h is better for PvP.
