A Holy Priest Striving For Hallow's End Fun

Oh, Hallow's End, how you have drawn me into the game once more. I mentioned in my Hallow's End Achievements post that it is my favorite seasonal event in Azeroth, and real life. The new Achievements, items and especially the candy, that Hallow's End offers has drawn me back to the game ahead of Wrath of the Lich King, which I did not expect to happen. I may not be raiding, but I am playing as much as before, if not more.
My new priest has received most of my Hallow's End play time, as well as most of my time in general. I have tackled a few of those Achievements I mentioned, despite the fact that I said I don't really care. I guess when I am so close to completing things like Tricks and Treats of Eastern Kingdoms, I get sucked into the idea of the pretty colors and effects flashing across my screen when I grab my last goodie. Unfortunately, I haven't tested my new found healing abilities in The Graveyard of Scarlet Monastery yet. The Headless Horsemen is just going to have to wait until I am 70, which should be before the event ends on November 1st. I really need to get her in there so can experience the encounter as a healer. Of course, she could also use the two rings, the mount, and squashling.
If I don't think my Priest is going to make it to 70 by the end of this week, I guess I will just start farming the Horseman on my Rogue. The rogue still needs an epic flyer, and while I will still have to cough up most of the money for the riding skill, at least I will look cool on the hard-to-get mount. Sadly, nothing else but the encounter itself is really needed.
I know Hallow's End is just a few days old at this point. Judging from the comments in my last post, that hasn't stopped some of you from completing the insane Hallowed Be Thy Name Achievement. Props to those who managed to accomplish it in only four days time, especially if you finished it before A Mask for All Occasions' removal. What are you guys going to do now? Work on scoring it on your alts, back to farming gold ahead of Wrath or abusing the EZMode raids due to the new patch?

First, mwhahahaha
Damn you blizzard for dragging me back in the game before the expansion!!!!! This was my off time!!
Well, the mount is worth it I suppose.
Just went there last night I got his pretty sword and Almost got his helm The rolls were if I remeber correctly
30-me
12-Pally
Pass-Lock
Pass-Hunter
31-Warrior
I was off by 1!!!! Omg I still can't get over that! :(
too bad XD havent even seen mount drop :S
tbh, you could heal it now ... the fight is probably the easiest i have done in a while. I actually tanked it as a ret palli with a pre 70 healer.
I havn't seen any thing but those damn rings...and ive done it like 30 times haha such a bummer!
i'm on try#41 and STILL no luck seeing the mount drop!
If your priest is over 60 people should allow you to come, I have healed it as a Shadow priest and have had Ret pallys heal it too, if you have a tank with gear out of Kara or above then it takes almost no healing at all.
Headless Horseman's mount is amazing. (Have it on my Priest)

the horseman is stupid, stupid easy. don't wait 'til 70 to give him a try.
Iv run 30odd times, with 2x lvl65s in the group at once for 5-10 of those, dont wait till 70. with even a halfway decent tank this boss is easy - and taking good dps means u wont have mana problems.
I have completed all the achievements except the 20masks, and the one that needs the pet and helm... i want my title dammit! seen the pet twice and helm once, i rolled <20 each time O.O
On the upside, my pally now has the sword... the helm... all 3 rings... the broom...
As for what now, im thinking some more travelling to discover all of my maps ready for 'The Explorer' title, and i still havent been to get my JENKINS title...... as a pally, i feel it my duty to have that one ;)
got all the achievements exept the one where you need to get the 20 masks (only got 14)
its not that im playing a lot but alittle here and a little there gives a lot
You can summon once you are 65 and could heal it no problem then too. My wife's resto druid has had no problem keeping us up. You'll probably want a "real" tank though.
What do you mean A Mask For All Occasions has been removed? It hasn't on my server (Skywall)
Who has done the "A Mask for all Ocasions"? If you have how'd you do it?
I lost the roll to the horse by 1 :(
haha i got horse today on my warrior ^^
Didn't see the mount or helm last year and haven't seen it again this year. Not sure how many times i've done it now, but it seems pointless doing the same sh*t over and over again.... zzzzzzzzzzzz
