Hi there fellow MMO-ers,
So since about 3-4 Weeks ago I started rebuilding a whole new raid team since the old team fell apart (lots of em transfered away to a PvE server). I must say I am quite positive suprised about the attendance of the new raid members and in the past few days/weeks we made some nice progression. We're not a real hardcore raiding guild but more into the atmosphere and killing some bosses with each other, however we would like to step up clearing some more normal bosses.
Now we started with 3 flex raids a week since lots of people still had to gear up. Recently we're up to 1 flex raid a week and 2 normal raids a week since the raiders acquired some more higher gear. During the last two weeks we killed Immersius, Fallen Protectors, Norushen, Sha of Pride, Galakras and yesterday Iron Juggernaut & Kor' Kron Dark Shaman (with a friend of me helping out, Ilvl 557 Rogue). After we killed the Shamans in 5 Pulls (Was quite suprised by that) unfortantly the rogue had to go and we couldn't replace him with a 5th other dps. Mean while when we were discussing this, the tank and main healer said/suggested that we probably wouldn't have the raid dps to kill General Nazgrim on normal and this got me thinking - although the raiding is going quite well, is the dps lacking behind in some way or another? I know that I am the only DPS person with the legendary Cloak/Gem atm but all of the raiders are on a decent Ilvl as far as I can see.
Setup;
- Brewmaster Monk Tank --> Ilvl 543 (Legendary Cloak)
- Blood Death Knight Tank --> Ilvl 542 (Legendary Cloak)
- Holy Paladin Healer --> Ilvl 543 (Legendary Cloak)
- Resto Druid Healer --> Ilvl 534
- Discipline Priest Healer --> Ilvl 534
- Frost Mage DPS --> Ilvl 546 (Legendary Cloak)
- Destruction Warlock DPS --> Ilvl 541
- Survival Hunter DPS --> Ilvl 536
- Survival Hunter DPS --> Ilvl 540
- Shadow Priest DPS --> Ilvl 536
- Windwalker Monk DPS --> Ilvl 530
World of Logs from this week (Rogue is not in our usual team unfortantly)
Normal Run 1: http://worldoflogs.com/reports/k2ox4te89jqhml1k/
Normal Run 2: http://worldoflogs.com/reports/5jon9whafj0y7b65/
Now my questions are;
1. Do some DPS needs to step it up or are they doing fine for there current Ilvl and without the legendaries yet?
2. If some of them need to step it up, any tips & tops on what I can advice them (Including myself, I always want to improve & go for the maximum preformance)
3. Is this group ready yet to take on General Nazgrim & preferable up to Thok/Siegecrafter?
Edit: I'm encouraging all the raiders to get there legendary quests done as soon as possible, most are busy on the Valor Quest at the moment.
