Tuesday was filled with a little disappointment and irritation on my part. We marched into Flex hoping to start on Paragons to find out that Flex runs can not be saved at this point. (Why Blizzard, why?) So it was back to our old nemesis Blackfuse. We did manage to kill the little green B........ again so not all was lost. By the time we downed him though it was too late to go on to Paragons. The best part? We will have to down him next week too. I am so not happy with this Blizzard....
Wednesday we didn't raid. Once again not enough folks showed up so we ended up running retro stuffs. Alas, no Ashes of Alar, or Onyxia's mount decided to drop but it was fun anyway. Once again if we don't have things drop I want to do something as a group, and retro raids seem where it's at right now.
At this point I am resigned to two things watching the trends. One, we will not be doing any real raiding on Thursday until Warlords drops. This is the third or fourth week in a row and the Masses have spoken. People don't care to show up on the second raid day at this point, so we have one night to push things. Two, because of point one, we will not be likely to get Garrosh down before 6.0 drops. After that point when the raid system is updated I imagine that we will be able to save our progress etc... but with only one night a week and the fact 6.0 has hit test realms, I don't think that the patch is more then two weeks out. Most of the abilities and changes in the patch were tested out on Beta, so I can't imagine it will need much time on the PTR.
I won't lie, I'm a little disappointed. I felt after last week and this week, (Two Blackfuse kills back to back make me very happy don't get me wrong) we might suddenly have a chance to get Gary Hellscream down before 6.0 dropped. Now, unless we get Blackfuse and Paragons down the first night next week, (which is possible) and then have people show up on Thursday to kill Garrosh I think there isn't much chance. Not that I don't have some faith in our raiders. But my DBM was counting about 68+ wipes on Blackfuse. Paragons I don't think will be as hard for us, but Garrosh. I don't think he's going down easy and I don't think from what I've seen historically much of the raid team will pre-watch study the fight. Sucks but there it is. I would love to be pleasantly surprised otherwise.
This brings us up to WoD. We are a month and a half away from the next expansion essentially. (OK, two months, so sue me) and I am not sure how things are going to look when we start raiding again. I want to start leveling my hunter first, as I am still enjoying using him as my main, but I have a feeling I will need to level a tank right off the bat. So Lag it will probably be. Hopefully I can get both characters leveled and ready to raid in a time frame that gives me the option for either with in the first little bit of raiding. We will see what happens though.
So, that is our week in a nutshell, what is your week looking like?
