Terenas - Friday, Dec. 30th

[bonemage]

Let me toss out a raidless idea or two, if it doesn't work or isn't desired, then we can raid Scholo as that seems to be the top raid preference. There's a wide variety of loot so there should be a good shot at upgrades for most of us.

Idea 1:

Party One in Strat live or DM North or something else:
Concillian(If willing to play priest)
Durambar
Octord
Yuri (coming?) Could really use polymorph
Gorkuk

I don't know if Concillian(priest) is prepped for "Of Love and Family", but there is a great healing ring. I know that Conc really wants this quest done, but Necrali really wants it too, so Conc could tank for Necrali another week. You definitely won't be left as the only one wanting Strat live if we do it this week.

Party Two in BRD:
Mogo
Marn
Gorohnt
Rogoll/Drutar/Magead
??

This could work as a 4 man too, I think, with several possible 5th man additions. PapaSmurf, Gantor, Swirly, and Shadowe would all be excellent options here if they are available. One benefit of this party, is that it can be started much earlier than parties that include myself, Xame, or Concillian (we're late arrivers).

Also, there could be some serious shuffling between the two parties with something like this instead:

Idea 2:

Party One in Strat live or DM North or something else:
Mogo
Durambar
Octord
Yuri
Marn

Party Two in BRD:
Fazuul
Conc/Concillian/Concillianne/Lianne
Gorohnt
Rogoll/Drutar/Magead
??

With 2 druids and Concillian's wide selection of classes, the tank/healing/DPS can be shuffled, hopefully keeping interest in all parties. Only issue is that we can't keep Flash up late, and with Concillian, an early start isn't possible, so perhaps only marginal progress can be made in BRD, which is probably a bummer for some.

Again, if anyone else has some suggestions, lets hear them. I have tried to put people where I know there is at least some interest for their toons, so people aren't left with no hope of toon progress. But, I think if people aren't happy with anything I've suggested, a Scholo raid seems to be Plan B, fun, and productive. Prefer to not have people slumming in instances that hold no interest. These ideas are also assuming that Xame is coming with Yuri (haven't heard in thread, but heard last week you were expected), and a bit hopeful we have someone else for another 5 man.
