The 2/14h team has had real trouble with tank stability for most of the tier, and has done well considering the struggles they've encountered.
While we would like to kill Heroic Garrosh pre 6.0 if possible, we know that our 7hr/week schedule isn't going to make that easy. We know we may not get there. Part of the purpose here is to re-invigorate the raiding environment. We know there will be challenges, but this transition is part of a big picture. We have ~35 active raiders, and want to give everyone the opportunity to earn their spot on our main Mythic team in WoD. We also want to take the time to adapt to a larger raid size, and deal with the challenges of that now, rather than lose time in WoD.
In terms of our guild, we're an adult community, so there isn't any raging. We're excited to raid together as a big group, as at the end of the day we are one guild. We tried the route of recruitment to fill the gaps in the various 10's, and that proved largely fruitless as most people in the skill range to be 11/14h are able to find 14/14h guild bloating up for WoD. On top of that, we are confident that we have the depth for a strong Mythic team in WoD, and don't want to bloat our roster when we already will have some hard decisions coming up.
Anyhoo, a little more about the guild.
That said, the purpose of the OP post was to find out which fights we should spend extra time looking into, vs utilizing similar strats from 10's. We have a week for our research so were hoping others who have made the transition could help us be more efficient in our research.
Many thanks again, and all replies are appreciated.
