WoW BHA - Aug 12-18 Raid/Heroic Schedules

I'd join you guys tonight if I wasn't violently ill from food poisoning

Gruul and Mags both down in one night! Nice work all and good to be back in there.

Question on the Manticron Cubes. Shouldn't we be putting the low DPSers on clicking detail? According to two strats, when Mags is chained with the cubes damage ramps up anywhere from 200% to 300%! Seems a waste to have high DPS mages and locks clicking when they could be burning...

If we go later, I can be a 4th/5th tank/clicker.

Sorry I missed Mags/Gruls last night, got crazy busy at work, was here till late, and eneded up working in my garage cuz I wanted nothing to do with computers last night:( Also, I probably won't be on much in the next couple months, ren fest just eats up too much of my time. I might pop in now and then to play an alt, but that's about it.

Here's the WWS report from the joint UT/GWJ Gruul-Mags run.

Great job guys!

Good work!

Bearr - BM Hunter - Anything anytime after 9:00pm EST!

I think the only day I have an issue with this week is going to be Tuesday.

Edit: Ok, now Thursday's out cause we're going to a Chiefs baseball game.

Great job everyone. 2 shotting gruul and mag with as many new people as we had and being the first attempt at something like this I think went really well.

(looks at Luna) So boss what's next in the pipe?

Late Kara run added for Friday.

With regard to tonight's run, can anyone that's going enchant Fortitude to Bracers and/or Spellpower to gloves?
I can blow a bunch of dough at AH right before we start, if so, and have that much more threat and HP.
For my reference, in case I lose my shopping list:

Enchant Bracer - Fortitude (+12 Stamina) Large Prismatic Shard Greater Planar Essence (10) Arcane Dust (20) Enchant Gloves - Major Spellpower (+20 Spelldamage) Greater Planar Essence (6) Large Prismatic Shard (6) Primal Mana (6)

Damn, this stuff's expensive!

If you can meet in Shat, I can enchant them with my rogue before I run with my druid.

Sure. I'll have to go blow my savings on mats, but I can do that.
I'll try to do the AH part before bath/story time and get hearthed back to Shat so we can spend as little time as possible doing this before starting the run.

Since Tannymiss has to go at 10, I'd like to get to Curator before then, otherwise, bolt-soaking could be an issue.
This probably means really pushing our pullspeed. Maiden could also be a pain w/o a Warrior tank, but she's early enough in, I doubt we'll have any issue getting there in time. Curator will be pushing pretty hard/fast.

Just an FYI, I shouldn't have any trouble being on for an 8:30 server start.

We can skip maiden if we run short on time.

For Currator, we can always set Dyrrian to soak the bolts. That was my rogue's job as we learned to get Curator on farm, so Dyrrian should be fine.

Great, we'll have you inside as soon as Tannymiss has to go. This should put you in for the last 1/2 or 2/3 of the run.

I'm sure Tannymiss would like a shot at Maiden's gloves, though. If it's no problem to have another person soak bolts, then no worries. I'd still like to see just how fast we can get through Curator, though. And definitely want a shot at the shield from Nightbane, as well as a shot at tanking him. Just to say "I did that!" I need a "I did that!" moment.

Change of plans, my wife just got some tickets to tonight's Chiefs game. They're playing the Pawtucket Red Sox so I'm going to blow off the raid and go to the game. GL in Kara

Maloratus can RDPS on Sunday for Mags/Gruul ...

Last night was a blast. The eastcoasters even outlasted me.

I got to do 2 things that were completely awesome "I AM TANKADIN" moments.
I tanked Nightbane. Wow. What a neat fight when you have the gear to stand up to him and the healers to keep you standing.
Then, Illhoof. I've always just tanked Kri'lek and the imps. Last night, I was the only tank at Illhoof, so I got Illhoof, Kri'lek and the imps. I'm not sure how it worked, but it did. Great, great fun.

We have some amazing healers in GWJ, and some fantastic DPS - I don't know how you guys never stole aggro from me, but good job!

What a blast!

Of course, Prince spanked me down, so I still have some gearing up to do. And we had a rocky start. But a really good, 20-badge, Ducki first-filled night.
Thanks guys!

Yup Duc I think your ready for your next big tanking moment. Pulling the whole opera audience at once and tanking it. All and all it was a good night though. Got some much needed upgrades on namic though a new back is still eluding me (grats to mel and elorin). Getting up this morning for work was a bit rough but them the breaks.

Yeah, sorry it went so long, but it was neat to go all the way through Prince in one go. I hope we can go clean up Netherspite tonight with most of last night's crew.

And again, the trash fails to drop Boots of Elusion for me, and Nightbane refuese to drop the shield, but 20 badges in one night is pretty sweet.

Edit: Oh, yeah, I also got Exalted with The Violet Eye, so I don't need the rep any more. Then again, I think doing the audience would be fun, it's just that on the runs I get to do, we usually don't have many votes in favor of blowing that much time on a non-boss.

Duc your a tank! If you want to pull something ya just pull it if people don't help then you will die and then who do you think the mobs will go after? Moral of the story if you want to pull something then go for it if the raid is smart they will help your big plate covered butt. They will prob Female Doggo and lecture like crazy afterwards, but they will help.

Well actually, as long as nobody helps him, the mobs'll turn around after they kill him.

And even if the mobs didn't turn around, the rest of the raid has a head start on running away.

Here's the crazy thing I discovered last night...

I've been healing almost exclusively in raids. Instance healing is different! Although with a lot of patience on the part of Kiri, JoedeNuka, Dyrrian & Knightly/Pelham we made it though Heroic Sethekk Halls & I can FLY.

The difference between regular flight form & epic flight for is like comparing a child's pedal car to a tricked out V8.

Woot! Congrats on the epic flight! Yeah, that makes a BIG difference. More than I expected it to.
