I was invited to heal an ICC 10 man raid on Brieonna last night. I had never done it before, didn't even know how to get there, but I decided to give it a shot. I was to be the main tank and off tank healer. I was one of 3 healers for the group.
Needless to say I was pretty nervous but it worked out ok. I was in there with someone else from my guild who had done the first 4 bosses. They gave me pointers about each fight. I was also on vent although I couldn't speak, I don't currently have a mic set up, but I could hear what the person who set up the raid was saying. I died a couple times, all the healers died at least once at one time or another, but we didn't wipe.
We did the first 4 bosses and it went pretty smooth, even the people who had done it before said it went smooth. I had a lot of fun and it wasn't anywhere near as stressful as I thought it would be. I didn't get any drops from it, there was a nice staff that dropped that I would have loved but I lost the roll on. I did get a bunch of Emblem of Frost which made it worthwhile right there as far as I'm concerned.
I now have the achievements for the first 4 bosses in ICC 10 Man, my only raid achievements so far, and that will help get me in to more raids in there in the future.
