It looks like we won't have enough for two 5 man groups this week, with khgerg out and Xame in MC, so I don't feel too bad for not being able to make it this week, or I'll be late if I do come. Most likely I'll be on around 11PM realm time, but I have to take advantage of the time to go on a date with Mrs. bonemage when I can.
With things looking like a raid this week, I thought I'd chip in a thought or two on the topic. We do need another UBRS key, and we do need people to 5 man LBRS for the Rend quest. As I won't be there, it really doesn't matter, but it seems more efficient to try to address both key and quests together. A single raid of LBRS is extremely unlikely to yield a full key to open up UBRS this Friday anyway, and 2 raids and a key forging also puts the UBRS start time pretty late and still not very likely. I think we should shoot for an LBRS 5 man with me tanking next Friday, when our chances of two 5 man groups are much better. I also have 2 of 4 pieces needed for another key.
Most of my gear is fairly complete for instances we have access too (read: 10 man or less), so I have only a few things left to get on my wish list. I consider a Vigilance Charm from DM West and a Redoubt Cloak from DM North Tribute run as "needs", along with the Draconian Deflector from Drakkisath. "Wants" include the Dal'Rends offhand sword for dual wield tanking (when highest mitigation isn't needed) and a Timeworn Mace from DM West. Otherwise my gear is pretty much done, at least until new content is added, or a guild alliance opens up some 20-40 man raid instances. I would like to do the Scholo quests, but generally I'm just willing to tank anywhere. I was really happy to see all of the loot that dropped last week in LBRS and UBRS, even though none of it was for me.
