    Skipping Tsulong for Lei Shi - still possible?

    So, quick question. After killing protectors heroic, we were gonna try and roll over Lei Shi, as we only have 4 MS healers and 2 OS's currently (AKA Tsulong and Shekzeer not an option till we have unsaved alt characters for next week).
    However, after killing tsulong, we're encountering a bug - everytime we try to put the instance to heroic, we get a 2 minute loading screen, then a "transfer aborted, could net set heroic".
    We've tried a soft reset (run out, reset instance, put to heroic), but it doesn't work. And with 45 mins left of the raid, we decided waiting half an hr for 15 mins of attempts was not really something we wanted to force people to do.
    I know for a fact that alot of guilds have skipped Tsulong already to hit up Lei Shi, so I assumed it was still possible - but has anyone activated her on heroic tonight, without tsulong heroic?

    Worked fine for us tonight, killed Tsulong on normal and switched to heroic for Lei Shi with no issues.

    We killed Protectors tonight and skipped Tsulong for Lei Shi HC attempts quite happily, so definitely funky on your realms end.

    Did it last night, skipped Tsulong and went for Lei Shi.
    Turned out to be a good choice.

    I have another question regarding.

    Is it possible to skip protectors and tsulong and switch to HC on Lei Shi, since it seems Lei Shi is the easiest one from all of them?

    After you killed Sha of Fear on normal, you can switch any boss to heroic in the instance afaik.

    Give us 2 more healers so Shekzeer and Tsulong becomes a possibility. We're already progressing with two offspecs . We're not skipping tsulong because he's too hard to handle, but because we have no real chance of ever beating it with that setup.

    Anyway, guess we'll see tonight. First week Terrace came out we were stuck with less healers than usual and couldn't do garalon because of it, so we already had an hour or so of practice on the boss back then, and could deffo switch her to heroic without having done protectors/tsulong back then. Just seemed like that would be the only reason it bugged out yesterday.

    There's nothing wrong with non-linear heroic progression. It's one of the reasons the heroic mode toggle was implemented over TBC's linear progression model. You have to eventually kill all the bosses on heroic to access the last boss on heroic, so being able to skip bosses doesn't really change anything in the end if you want a full heroic clear.

    TBC linear progression? What.... there were so many bosses you could skip in TBC plus there were generally 2 raids per tier. Take the eye for example, most guilds skipped alar for loot reaver. Did that? then move to SSC where most guilds skipped hydroxis for lurker.
