OK so as many of you have seen me say we're going to try and start getting some some Karazhan action going. We currently have 21 folks keyed and a few more that should be keyed by Friday. It is possible that there will be two runs, if people can make it we do appear to have the right class mixes to field a couple of successful teams based on class balance. It won't be perfect, but what ever is?
So if you want to go, post here. Please post the earliest you can start and the latest you can stay. 8 server is what I am thinking will be the start time based on the data provided in the availability thread, but I'll get some more data in this thread too.
There will very likely be 2 other posts to go along with this one cropping up in the next day or two. One will be the basic procedures that we use to determine rosters, the other will be an explanation of the loot system that we will be using. Please keep in mind that since we already have more than 20 people keyed and that we only have 28 accounts with L70's that if everyone signs up not everyone will get in, for these runs. We will be expanding the scheduling and running 2 or 3 nights a week in short order. At the moment Tuesday night looks like another good option but well the goal of the scheduling is to make sure that we can get as many people involved as possible so as things change the schedules will change to keep people involved.
Feel free to read ahead on strats and info. The approach is going to be that the RL/strat czar for the run will more or less do a "OK these are the abilities of the mob, this is a basic strat framework that we are going to use. Keep your eyes open to pick up other details. We'll likely wipe so if you have read some specific strat or have details to share it's probably best to just save them for the next pull as people will understand it better after seeing it anyway. Alright let's see if we are good enough to one shot this bugger. Pull away!" But it was decided that we aren't doing the raids cold. It's a nice ego stroke to go in cold figure it out and beat it, but many members of the guild have very limited playing so getting the most out of that is important. Expect a fair bit of discussion of strats on Teamspeak and after the pulls.
If you aren't keyed yet but are still interested please make a note. We'll do our best to get you keyed before then (I know Octord still needs the 2nd and 3rd fragments, Old Hillsbrad, and Black Morass and my goal for tonight is to get as much of that done for him as we can).
This thread will be used to update the rosters. They should be posted by Thursday night so that folks know what is going on with enough warning. The plan for all raids is to have the sign-up post up a week in advance and the roster posted 24 hours in advance.
So let us know who is interested and thinks they can make it.
OK it appears that our first foray into Karazhan will be with 2 different groups. The rosters that I'm posting here aren't set in stone. Planned start time for both runs is 8 server, though we may start a group earlier than that if the right balance of folks is online and it won't mess with the balance of the other lock.
So here are the tenative lists for Operation Fluffy Bunny.
Bunny is one person down right now. Shiki is the only other person who signed up and could come in on that run later. Wimpy may also have to leave before the run is over. I've also heard from RTM that he may actually be around on Felonius but not likely. And Swirly might be around you never know with him. :) Keshoga could be keyed before then as well. But anyway, going in with 9 shouldn't be too big a deal, I still expect that Attumen will die anyway. :)
Anyway there it is. Let's go have some fun tomorrow.
