Re: Who here playes WoW?

Yep. Last night we were trying Al'ar again after a 17% phase 2 wipe, and some idiot healer wasn't paying attention, let our position 3 tank die, then we got flame buffeted to death. Southern hallway respawns welcomed us at the instance entrance. Needless to say, we were pissed.

Not paying attention is probably the #1 cause of wipes in endgame raids, that I've seen. So annoying.

I can say that 90% of the time a tank dies it's not one specific healer's fault. I've seen tanks miss shield blocks and take 13k crushings and then people shout at the healers and i just pull up my combat log and make them all feel like douches.

Then again I rarely tank heal anymore, party healing is much more exciting and fun. Healing bloodboil groups is the most amazing fun i've had in a while.

Also A'lar really isn't endgame. We brought 13 pugs to our first a'lar kill. (which was a week ago since we basically skipped TK and went to hyjal/bt and just went back to get our SR necks since we're 5/5 hyjal and 5/9 bt now) I'd say it's about as easy as VR.

If i remember correctly the amount of defense to be capped changed from 60-70 (along with massive stam/mit/avoidance scaling) so you'd be taking crits, and you'd only have maaaaybe 10k health at most.

and unless your had like, thunderfury there's no 60 items that would let you keep aggro against 70 epic/badge geared dps unless they're just terrible. I've out threated warriors in full threat tanking gear on my destrolock with salv in 5 mans without a spriest.

The gear discrepancy between 60-70 is huge. Warriors have to at least put out 800 tps on a target to even hope they can keep it off dps. 1k is ideal if the group doesn't have salv.

Re: Who here playes WoW?

I dont really know much About Warriors. I just got My T3/PreBC tanking suit and went into a Heroic MgT group and we only wiped once due to the Retadin's lack off attention when he pulled another mob

No you're right, it's not always the healer's fault, but on this particular occasion it was. And yea I would agree that Al'ar isn't really endgame. I used to be in a Hyjal-clearing, BT-progression guild where I'd see little mistakes (not paying attention or just all-around ignorance) cause wipes. Al'ar is pretty easy, but I retired from really hardcore raiding and joined a more casual raiding guild with a bunch of old friends of mine, and we have a bit more trouble with him right now because he's just the next guy in our progression path.

In any case, I'm anxious to do a bit of healing in raids with my priest. I'm hanging up my rogue and mage and trying to get away from the DPS aspect of things, but we're in dire need of shadow priests, so I'll probably end up melting faces anyway.

I Got vengeful gladiator last season pve is nothing compaired to pvp. It's so much easier I do 1500 dps in pvp gear. People in t5 can't even do that much. Pve overall just sucks. In order to get my amani war bear I actually forked up 30 bucks, to get my amani war bear thats how much i hate pve.

Progressing through content isn't a cakewalk by any means.

We Desperately need SPriests In our Guild. we only have one and she's only in Kara loot with a BT on farm/SWP first 2 bosses down.

Re: Who here playes WoW?

Frozen shadowweave is pretty much all a spriest needs to step into t6 content. It's amazingly OP.

If she's not a tailor, offer to use gbank money to powerlevel it imo.

Nice thing about SPs is that if they have 3/3 FSW, 2/2 Spellstrike, badge off-hand, badge gloves, Kara trash neck and at least either the Prince dagger or island badge dagger, they're good all the way into T6 content. All of that stuff is pretty easy to get, too.
