4piece t10 mage starts off with 16k dps without any gimmick buff goddamn >.>

Longutters: LFM VoA10 one of each class need holy priest.
Me: I'm Disc, but close enough, eh?
Longutters: Sorry need holy.

Really? I wasn't aware Circle of healing was necessary for VoA and in fact since people can potentially get one-shotted towards the end of a fight a bubble for higher EH on everyone would be good, no? Yeah.

[Plow]

Pardon, but nuh-uh, I don't buy it. The plate pieces can't be that far behind, you're robbing me of the absolute only item class I can even possibly wear just for something that's slightly ahead on your spreadsheet. Every plate piece that drops is something I don't even have the option of using even if I wanted to.

Offspec only on that shit imo

Edit: "Cataclysm will fix it, just deal with it for now" is already a dead horse with the blues, it doesn't hold any more water in a loot discussion.

togc10 leather gloves were bis for paladins by a mile, pretty certain they weren't bis for anyone else at all... cept maybe wars, lol... maybe ferals too, not sure

what about then?

I mean, it's not like the itemization a warrior wants (i.e. arp above all else then tossups between crit/hit/exp blah blah) is anywhere close to what a rogue seeks with hit and haste being dominant stats now.

If it's a marginal upgrade for leather only classes, but bis for plate, why not give it to the one that advances the raid the most, whichever case that may be?

People who are convinced that Archavon is the only boss that drops the mammoth and thus will only go in for Toravon+Archavon.

ATLASLOOT IS WRONG SOMETIMES PEOPLE

I don't get why so many people leave before other bosses. You go in and one-shot Toravan/Koralon and the other two are quick and stupid easy one-shots too. You also get like 20g for each, 2 emblems for gems and the chance at the mammoth.

Fuck yeah! Both my friends got a trail with a respectable raiding guild on my server and who gets denied? Exactly my luck (or lack of gear/skills, obviously). Although they left me off 'easy' saying the are overpopulated I have no doubts its because either my gear is not good enough (I only broke 5k GS yesterday without cheating) or I don't have enough skill/experience (I started WoW ~4 months ago, no 25man experience, only experience on my main = paladin tank). I had to apply using my alt as an arcane mage since pretty much all established raiding guilds have their tanks sorted so there is hardly a tank spot free to be filled which doesn't get filled within second by people better then me. Well nevermind, I thanked them for considering my application and stressed that I'm still available and would give notice if for whatever reason I'm not available anymore.

Yeah, so now I'm without the friends I regularly played with since they will be busy raiding with the big guys and I'm without a raiding guild since my old guild stopped bothering due to lack of motivation/availability. I'm stuck with PuG's who demand achievements (which I don't have on my mage) and 5.2k+ GS when I can hardly break 5k after getting all triumph gear + icc5 hc (still don't have shriveled heart damnit! fuck HoR hc).

WoW life is great for scrubs like me!

There is plenty of pug that dont check achievements. I never had to link it to get invited, and I doubt most of them checked my profile. Just whisper without the achievement, and say nothing about your progress.

If you can do both icecrown every week and voa, your gearsscore is going to rise pretty fast.

Do your own pugs, or app to other raiding guilds. Do some combat logs of pug bosses of your gear. Submit that with your application, tell them that if they need pug DPS for something, to send you a tell.

[rithridan]

With combat logs you mean like those you find on WorldofLogs? I have no idea how to get/make those and I thought you needed a subscription to be able to post logs there.

[Blarg]

Just did a VOA 10 with no pallies and Toravon just happens to drop 2 of the exact same pally tank pieces. I've never seen 2 of the same pieces drop from 1 guy before and for it to go to no one just makes it worse.

/combatlog.

@ Blarg Had 2x Mage T9 245 Hands drop off Koralon. I was stoked.

I'd of thought by now they would of implemented some tool that scans what classes are currently in the raid. I don't think they'd have to do which armor you have/don't have, but going in and getting two t10 warlock hands without a single warlock, feels like a huge slap in the face by Blizzard.

Afterwards we went into 25man and got all druid stuff, with just a single druid in the raid.

And now for my QQ'ing. This week our group of 10ICC, the second, got split up so we could start a third group on tuesdays.

All sorts of people I've never raided before, most were in 10/25toc stuff, and all said they've "done this before". And by some of their gear and achievs they had.

We then go on to one shot the first four bosses somehow, we had horribly sloppy kills and at two of the new dps(the rogues) couldn't stay a live for whatever reason in any fight.

Then we continue onto to plaqueworks and both groups cant even down festergut. We had 1 dps @7+, 2@6+, and the last two were just over 4k (guess who? the rogues...)

Hurray for losing 8/10 badges and chance at progression for a week. While group one is already at Sindragosa, they can down her but the door wouldn't open last night it seems, and might be able to get LK this week. /sigh

Yeah, I really don't understand why people blow off 80g (more, if you consider the badge:gem worth) for 15 minutes work.

I need to start making my own VOA groups, pulling them in order of Koralon, Emalon, Archavon, Toravon...most people will kill Koralon since it's still T9, and then they're saved and have to stick around if they want the frost badges >:D

I still leave if Toravon isn't first though I just try to make at least a VoA10 on my main with guildies so we stick around and complete it even if a pug or two leaves.

Though I do have another complaint on that. I needed 4 pugs for VoA10 last. Had paladin tanks, druid healer and priest dps so needed shaman heals and hunter/lock/mage dps. Start asking in trade for a resto shaman and those jobs for VoA10 and some shaman whispers "invite" so I do so, get to Toravon and halfway through my guilds resto druid goes "Am I solo healing this?" and yeah...it was an ele shaman. The shaman then left and we 9-manned the rest of the instance.

[Correction]

Many are out of things to buy with triumph badges and sticking around another 30 minutes and three bosses for a 1% drop just isn't worth it.

[Eaglestrike]

Granted I have 6 80's but fuck I have run out of emblem of triumphs on my characters for gems. I've been upgrading gear across my characters faster than my dailies have replenished the gems, heh.

[Correction]

I often find I accumulate gems faster if I just pvp for a good day or two.

What in the hell terrible groups do you have where it takes 30 minutes?

[Eaglestrike]

lol didn't even notice this. You might be able to bloodlust again for the 4th boss, but yeah it's 60g and 6 emblems for an extra 10min of your time.

[Gulkeeva]

The weekly quest to channel a beam into a "dying" sindragosa is stupid.. it takes like 5min... and since it was the first time, most the raid was sitting there trying to focus that stupid beam >.>
