As to our healers, Both original were very well geared for ToC, and the paly tank healing I know to be a tremendous player who is in our guild because he likes the family atmosphere, he could easily be in a serious raiding guild, he most definatley does not suck. The other (disc priest) is a good healer, but she is just getting used to her specs, and what she's comfortable with atm it bubbling the raid and throwing out raid heals, which is fine, that's what her spec was designed for. The problem was snobolds getting on healers and severely limiting their healing potential. The pally we brought in as the third was also a really good player, in decent gear for ToC 10.
The DPS was overall from NR beasts, and I know on Patchwerk type fights, most of these people are doing 4-5k easily in a 10 man, but targeting snobolds etc is hurting their DPS.
For the worms the problem seemed to be that only the OT was getting burning bile, so when I as the MT got paralytic toxin, i couldn't run over to him (the DPS were just running to the OT on dreadscale).
I'm confident in our raid team and I see allot of potential in them. For people saying to drop the guild, that's an option for me, but I like our guild, we have the potential there, we're just having problems with execution. Allot of our raid team are family type people, we have a few moms, a few dads, etc who got into the game to have fun, and are just starting to raid. Everyone in there had decent gear and I know are decent players, we were just having problems with that fight and I was hoping for suggestions, not "omg, you can't do that, you guys suck", if that's your attitude, please don't post on this thread.
I have ranged using a /tar sno macro. and having snobolds being a priority for ranged.
Thank you for any helpful advice.
Oh, and as to the gunship battle/lady thing, it was a scheduling conflict, we lost healers due to RL commitments, it's not that we couldn't do it.
