Tuesday we went into Highmaul again with a heavily alted group. We only managed to get three bosses down, but I am holding the save and we will keep going in until the whole raid is done, then it will be Blackrock, all raid every raid.
Wednesday we ventured back into Blackrock Foundry. Gruul went down quickly and we moved on to Hans and Franz, whom we finally took down this week!
Really though, if you don't mind spoilers (and I'm wondering how long this is considered a spoiler) You should watch the cinimatic for the end of Blackforge. It is amazing and has sprung up a lot of good questions. And the fact that as always Khadgar is right. That dude is always right. Assuming it's really Khadgar. (If you have read any of Matt Rossi or Anne Stickney's Tinfoil hat Lore columns, you should. They discuss this a little bit at blizzardwatch.com)
The other thing that just hit me was that Blizzcon was announced and somewhere between juggling work, school activities and Girl Scout cookies I missed when they released this information. It will be November 6th and 7th this year. Assuming that they are going to try and stick to the timeline Blizzard is aiming for, if they announce the next expansion at Blizzcon, they would be only giving us a few months heads up before it drops. That is unless they decide to do a third raid tier in Warlords. That would put us at about six month notice. Unless they go thirteen months again between expansions. Then most of us will be crying.
The raid team continues to evolve. We have some new blood coming in which makes me ponder our direction. I want to finish Highmaul and move on to Blackrock full time, but with the new folks coming in I debate that course. I want a chance to get folks some gear, though if they are running their LFRs every week, the Gear should be coming. Not everyone is pulling great dps yet, but I'm seeing improvement weekly on those hitting lower numbers. I think we are on our way, but I'm not sure how quick we will get there. I don't want to stagnate and stay in place, but I want to make sure we have every opportunity to make folks ready for Blackrock full time.
Little hair metal for you today.
Scattered in my thoughts to day I am.
See you all in raid this week.
