Need Deck Defender for Glory Achieve, but still want heroic MoD

[Bendeis]

Since everyone on our team has the spine and DW achievement for the drake, what we plan to do is:

We clear 6/8 normal on mains, to get the remaining achievements, once we have done blackhorn, we will disband the group, then reform the group with an alt that has a 6/8hc lockout as leader. Once everyone is inside DS, the person who had the 6/8hc lockout on their alt will relog back to his main.

the blackhorn achievment is doable on heroic though, but yea ofc quite hard but still manageable

[Thargelion]

Think i read somewhere that you only have to kill Spine heroic to do Madness heroic. But you have to kill Blackhorn heroic to kill Spine heroic.
But yea, either do the alt thing lockout, or 1 week of normal mode. You wont miss that much.

BACK ON TOPIC:

If you clear 6/8 heroic, you can get an alt in for the save.
He can get saved to 6/8 heroic.
If you decide to clear the other 2 off on normal though, your alts save will go 8/8 too.

The way lockouts work is like this:
Normal lockout, you get saved to a boss. <<No raidID>>
Heroic lockout, you get saved to a raid. <<You'll have a RaidID>>
If you decide to kill of any boss in DS, that raid gets a RaidID. If you turn it to normal after that, and kill more bosses, the bosses in your raidID will be dead for everyone with that raidID.

What does this mean?
You can actually kill 6/8 Heroic and get alts in for the save. Do not kill the last 2 bosses on normal that week.
You can clear whatever you want the next week with your mains, and keep the save on your alts.
When you want to use that save, just jump in a raid with your alts and get the lockout, just make sure you aint saved that week yet.

Just do it on it heroic, should be easy anyway considering how faceroll the boss is with the 25% anyway.

I say in the OP we DO need loot and mounts from heroic DW....we'll deal with a normal clear if we have to, but I just wanted to explore other options if possible.

I know what you said, am just pointing out that you actually DONT need loot , since you already killed the final boss in the expansion, and the next expansion isnt coming anytime soon, so missing one week isnt a big deal.

Just an update, the raiders voted to go for drakes normal mode last night, which as I said before, if we could have done both would have been nice, but wasn't a big deal. We were planning on doing Spine heroic, but that fight ALSO requires all previous bosses be killed on heroic. Just wanted to put that out there if others were unaware. I was under the impression it was MoD only, but it also applies to Spine as well. Thanks for all the feedback everyone!

tho im trying to work out how theres a guild in the top 20 on the server with only hc madness and spine down my server being frostmane

link here http://www.wowprogress.com/pve/eu/frostmane

my only idear is that its a new formed guild that alredy had 6/8 hc cleared

or they had 7 guildies, for the first 6 heroics, then got an 8th for the last 2. so it wasn't a guild run before those last 2

Do it on heroic, my guild did it and it only took about 2-3 wipes. (10-15% nerf aswell).
