Aftaer taking a break for a couple of weeks I shall be coming back to the raid and grabbing it by the balls and shaking it up a little. Now, I am hoping to get everyone together this weekend and get another 25-man going. I also will try and make sure the proposed groups and made available on Thursday night.

There are two plans of what we will be doing should the 25 man group be viable.

Option 1:- Sartharion with three drakes. This will obviously be hard but it's much easier than the ten man version and we will have all night to practise at it. Should it become apparant that we are still laking the ability to do it with three we may move down to two but no less.

Option 2:- The construct quarter of Naxxamas. This is the part of Naxx that is holding us back. So we need to practise the hard stuff while we are most alert and ready leaving us with all the easy stuff ahead.

To that end I want everyone to get fully flasked, gemed, enchanted, glyphed to put out their maximum potential. You have five days to organise it do get to it. The other thing I want everyone to have is at least one, hopefully two pieces of the epic, crafted frost res gear for sapphiron. Ask any of the crafters in the guild and they can be made reasonsbaly cheaply. The guild funds will help you should you need them.

Please vote on which of these two options you would prefer and the winner will take presidence on Friday.

this is all

In terms of progression i suggest finishing off construct as a priority. 3 drakes on satharion will be significantly harder and we still need alot of our members to get geared up for it. We still have a slight shortage of healers, though delaney may be returning (his comp is fixed but now the modem has died so his net is broken) and nameya is quickly building up some healing gear.

Id like to try Sarth with 3 drakes, just to see what its like but imo in our current situation we will struggle.

I have to say construct quarter, as alot of our members are signifcantly under geared (or at least I hope that's what causing some of the DPS I've been keeping an eye on). From the times I've been looking over Zhin's at the officer's section, I know that Tuldar is more than a little bored with Naxx but unfortantly there's no point in rushing ahead in the content with under geared people.

Also, I think we have to get the quarter done first as the coordination required in the boss encounters are an important milestone for people, and we still have people who end up causing signifcant damage to the raid simply by running the wrong way around Thaddius. I dont know about you, but I want to know that the people I'm raiding with know how to run in a circle clockwise before attempting something as complex as 3 drakes.

We have seen Construct done and there's no reason why we shouldn't be able to do it again. General undergearedness IS an issue, yes, and running Naxx will help with this more than nailing Sarth+3.

As things are, however, I don't care much where will we go.

Construct Quarter is likely the better option for the guild as a whole.

Don't get me wrong, though; I wanna nail Sarthy as well!

Ahey, :)

I suggest we might start considering scheduling Sarthy for alternate Wednesdays and Thursdays (or, say, Wednesdays, but every third Thursday instead, or whatever).

As such, I think Construct Quarter might be a more progressiony option. (Is that a word? I don't know, but it was fun to type... ;))

Cheers,
J.

Sarth with 3 drakes up is going to hurt real bad.. They are annoying and hard to beat, I have only downed him with 2 drakes before, and when we did that, naxx 25 had been on "farm" for 4 weeks....

So I suggest we keep on trying to get the "abbo" wing down, until we are better geared.


for the drakes, we need alot of AoE damage.

Unfortunately the net out here gives me so much lag I cant even run instances. But least I can support the guild in crafting resistance gear - anyone who needs mail or leather frost resistance gear me a shout.

If we do start stying OS soonish though within the next few months its definately over abititious and some what fool hearty to think starting on 3 drakes is even a good idea. We will need to work our way up. we have managed one and once we can handle that easy and kill the first drake in aprox 60-90 seconds attempt a second drake.

Once we can handle that fine then we can move onto attempting it with 3, providing that the first drake can be killed in aprox 45 seconds.

My main reason for posting this though is i want to know how much gear there is at lv 80 in terms of fire resistance kit and where i can get it from. Most people i have spoken to strongly advise having a Resistance geared, Magic absorbing DK tank Main tanking sartharion due to the sheer ammount of spell damage that the MT will take.

Through my spec alone i can have atleast 24% flat spell mitigation, in addition to the fire resistance aura and fire resi kit its probably the most any tank class can mitigate from that fire breath. At points throught the fight with 3 drakes the fire breath can and will hit for excess of 75k on an unmitigated character, so the more this can be softened the better

Well. Would love to do Sarthy more.
But Construct is good practice and does seem to be a little bit easier on the guildies. So 'Yes' on construct tbh.
