Assuming everyone else can make it, we will forge ahead (at least a little) and leave you a job jar for next week. Nobody could replace Smash, but perhaps Elvira's new pet can make due for a while :)
We have a small bit of killing yet to do in Durotar, which I think will all be out in the open and easy to catch up on solo (harpies and maybe croc hunting). After that it will be time to leave home and see the world, and the number of options available will suddenly be much larger. I think we can divide those options into "full group quests" and "partial group/solo quests", and plan accordingly. Those outdoor loot quests (e.g. crawler mucus) are quite tedious for the full group, but they can work out nicely for catchup weeks. If we have several loot quests available, the partial group can work on loot quests x, y, and z until they get to a certain level, the solo player can catch up by working on the same quests until they get to the same level, and whatever loot is still needed for any of the players can be finished up during the next session when the opportunities arise.
