So how's it going to work?

[chrisulloa]

When we hit 80 we start off doing heroics and such, get our epic gear. Then what do we move on to? Naxx 10 right? What's going to be our first raid to start off with, like the Kara of wotlk?

[Audacious]

You can start in 10 or 25 man naxx, after the heroics and everything.

Both 10 mans and 25 mans are different progression paths

[chrisulloa]

So is Naxx 10 more difficult that Naxx 25?

[Audacious]

To a lesser extent they are equal in difficulty.

[chrisulloa]

So what is the difference in preparation for the two instances?

Well for 10 man you need less people and you can pretty much make a group out of anything... 25 you need 25 people and a couple priest for Instructor. There really isn't much prep and to really answer this question better it really depends on your gear and class.

[lalartu]

you might even have a couple pieces of sw or bt/badge gear when you set foot in naxx10/25. its just really basic easy-mode starter as it looks atm, supposedly easier than kara was mid expansion.

the difference, is 25 are harder to organize therefor you get slightly better gear, other than that its just raiding with friends.

While we're on the topic, at what difficulty level is the raid with the t7 glove drop compared to Naxx? Will it be like gruul where you want your raid kited a little or can you go in there with the hc blues/epics?

[Belloc]

Sartharion (tier 7 gloves) is the same difficulty as Naxx.

I personally didnt play beta but from what i gather trolling these forums lol
Ive heard that you can basically do naxx 10 man in greens and blues. No heroic gear even needed yet lol
Which makes me hope that not all raids are like this cause it would suck....
Also what ive read is that you should do 10 man naxx to get gear + experience b4 hitting up 25 man.

Thaddius 25 man 27.6m hp

Thaddius 10 man 3.85 mil hp


pretty big difference no?

and the boss has a 8 min enrage timer btw

[Dynasty08]

It's because you can stack more people on each other for the +10% buffs in a 25man so you technically SHOULD deliver HUGE dps

Just because he has more health doesn't mean the fight is more involved then the 10 man.

I said it was pretty much equal in difficultly not that there wasn't a difference.

still you go from a "skill" check to a gear and raid composition check thats not close to the same thing

You make it sound as if the 10 man is harder, and the 25 man is just getting the right comp.

They are both about comp...
Its about skill and team work.
The make up is even more important in the 10 man than in 25, especially of saph.

[chrisulloa]

I almost forgot about heroic raids! That's probably going to be twice as hard as the regular.
