    VoA Boss Skipping

    VoA is usually a two boss run despite there being 4. Where do you stand on the matter?

    My answer would have been:

    No; I don't skip them

    Re: VoA Boss Skipping

    Personally, i hate when groups skip archie and emalon, and sometimes koralon too

    also, another one of my hatreds in VoA is people that leave after 1 wipe, particularly when the wipe was just bad luck, and nothing to do with skill/gear

    easiest way would be to make all bosses drop teh frosties.

    or put in the rumoured Algalon/Captain Planet boss that's only accessable after all the other bosses are dead and drops Ilvl 277 gear and that Celestial Steed

    no that's stupid you're saying blizzard should upgrade naxx loot, badges and difficulty so people will run it and not just for the weekly.

    This depends on the group I am in. Alot of pugs and even my guild, prefer to just hit up the new ice boss and the fire boss. But if folks ask nicely about the chance for offset gear. We usually just zerg the other two bosses as it is really fast to do so.

    Like shoulders mean anything in the game anymore, I rather see those drop with hands since they are a lesser stat upgrade compared to the chest/legs that can drop.

    Perhaps make it so you have to do every boss or you don't get a frost emblem.

    Re: VoA Boss Skipping

    Two boss run? Man, that must be nice.

    It's almost always a one boss run on my realm. And I'm tired of it. I like the extra gold, badges, chance at offspec gear, and chance at a mount no matter which toon I'm on. I prefer killing every single boss every time.

    I'm more upset at Blizzard for not making the raid winged though. It's absolutely fail to have four tiers of content in the same raid.

    Whats the point of making the last two bosses more attractive to kill? The gear is like 2-3 tiers behind and useless.

    Even if the group doesn't skip I always drop after Tor, nothing I need and I don't care enough to gear up pugs.

    Re: VoA Boss Skipping

    My server would still do Emalon if they weren't so terrible. Seriously. PuGs still have problems with him.

    Re: VoA Boss Skipping

    Doesnt matter, as long as emblems will drop from heroics to give you the best or second best loot possible all the old raids will more or less die. No new found guild with new players will start making an effort with starting in Naxx to gear up and go from there. Even if there would be a fresh server it'd still be ICC or maybe ToC as a soft start.

    And this is something they know and probably counted on, so why upgrade VoA?

    Wow, you don't need epic gems? Amazing. What, do you only take gear without gem slots? That's kind of fail.
