So I have made a deal with a raiding guild. In exchange for some flask mats, they will let me loot an Eye of Divinity during their weekly MC clear.
Last week I went, got to fight most of the bosses, had some fun, and the Eye didn't drop. So I'm due to come back this week and try again... however here is the problem.
This week we are doing our first attempt at MC. So if I go with this guild, I will be raidlocked out of our first attempt which I'd like to avoid.
So to get to the point about looting the Eye, I have a theory and I want to know if anyone can confirm whether it will work.
My plan:
1. Wait outside the instance (either in or out of the raid) for Domo to go down.
2. Have them check the chest. If the Eye is there, zone in, get summoned, loot it, and trade my stuff to them. I'll be raid locked out of our own trip but it's worth it.
3. If if isn't there, don't zone in and therefore not get raidlocked.
Will this work? I might attempt to try it with a tribute run, i.e. have them kill the king, check the chest, then see if I can come in and loot something (it should be the same).
