Quote:Yeah, a guild that kills Gruul has a decent shot at VR, but once they get VR, there's literally nothing else they can do there. 1 hour for 1 kill and little else is generally not a great return in a limited time schedule.
He has become his own attunement. Casual guilds are stalling at him because he takes focus from SSC, where those guilds really belong.
Hmm, SSC/TK are pitched at the same level - sure, Kael is (considerably) harder than Vashj, but Al'ar and Solarian aren't significantly harder than Leotheras or Karathress.

Elixier Spec, have to run OHB to get into BM to complete.......i suppose it's worth it.
While I think it's odd that they removed the SSC and TK attunements yet left the Karazhan attunement in, once again it's not the attunement itself that bugs me so much as the fact that, unless I'm a druid, I have to pay 1000g to get in due to the flying mount requirement on Arcatraz. Yes, money grows daily on trees in BC, but it sure adds up when you have to equip each of your alts with a slow flyer just to get into the only puggable raid instance currently in-game.
On the subject of the alchemy specialisations, I discussed it with some people who'd already done it and complained about the poor drop rate of the black morass items... and decided to go for the transmute specialisation quest, which is a single 100% quest item drop from Botanica, and then immediately fork out the gold to respec to Elixir mastery. Expensive, but worth the pain of never having to set foot in the Black Morass again. Well, until I need to attune those alts to Karazhan. Blast. Still, maybe Zul'Aman will solve that problem, too.
Incidentally, the "loot pinata" view of early Hyjal and BT bosses is a little unfair - they just happen to be much, much easier to learn (even with the slog of the trash in Hyjal per attempt) than Kael is. No matter how big an epeen you wave at them, they don't just fall over, but any group that can kill Kael is not going to take that long to learn them because not every fight can be a 20-minutes-plus 5-phase epic.
You don't know what you're talking about.
