We are going to finalize raid times and days going forward. If you cannot make it that's okay since we didn't give you that many days notice, but let an officer know your preferences if you have serious raiding intentions. We are in the process of finalizing our second tank slot, so talk to farvacola if you want to be the regular tank. The teamspeak can be accessed using the link on the bottom-left on TL. The normal raid (scheduled) will follow. | ||

SW:TOR doesnt have "LFR" (well, we have an unused queue.) but the S(tory)M's / HM's are extremely easy to PUG and i love it, i cant commit to raid at X time so being able to log on when i DO have the time and jump into a raid is pretty awesome, its much the same in WoW's case. However the companies' don't understand that they shouldn't slack on the ACTUAL challenging content, its often too easy which leaves the committed raiders very disappointed and bitter towards the current system. Nobody would have given a shit about LFR's in WoW if the HM's posed significant challenge but since they dont, its blizzard catering to the casual crowd and neglecting the hardcore raiders. (By comparison in SW:TOR, the "nightmare" modes are easy too, which are the hardest available.) The best of both worlds is very possible, we just don't have it yet. LFR is a really great concept but they should tune up the harder versions alot more because of it instead of neglecting it. Here's hoping WoD and Mythic brings you guys your challenge  Really? Thats funny considering how hc SoO is doing. So how much experience do you actually have? Exactly how is hc SoO a failure? | ||

I raided up until (the end of) cata and the bitching still hasnt stopped, i was just commenting on it and being nice about it too. The content is still cleared and on farm in weeks by committed guilds. I also never mentioned SoO (or any raid) at all or as a failure. Basically he's just referring to the fact that around 95% of that bitching that stuff is too easy is from people running LFR or 10 man normal which are by far the easiest modes. There has been some disappointing raid content in recent years (Trials made me quit the game and from what I've heard and seen, Vaults was never fun), but I've been having fun with ToT and SoO. And I had fun with Ulduar, BoT, and BWD in the last couple expansions as well. WoW raiding has never been horrible, what's been horrible is the grind and the scattershot class balance that has given way to striking homogeneity in the last expansion. | ||

That's the first time I've ever heard someone say 10 man is easier than 25 man. It's the other way around, at least it definitely was in cataclysm. There's far less margin of error and far more responsibility placed on every single individual in 10man, which is why LFR is 25man. Obviously there are other issues with 25 man (far harder to organize, keep everyone working together etc) but for every individual in the raid, 10 man should be harder (well, I could see 25man being harder for the tanks since there's still just 2 tanks usually). | ||

On 10man tanks usually tend to maximize their damage, whereas that is less of an issue in 25man. When you draw the line I think 10man is harder on tanks too. | ||

When you draw the line I think 10man is harder on tanks too. Which tank class goes for damage? I think for tanks nothing really changes in terms of what to pay attention to. 25m has larger damage spikes and tanks need more heal, afaik that only changes something for brewmasters (mastery>crit build in 25m, crit in 10m to maximize self-heal). I will stop myself from listing all 10/25 differences here, because the issue is obviously getting adressed with mythic in WoD. Suffice it to say, there is more to it than getting hit by rng effects x times. | ||
