Raid: Hamfist

Really, I think most folks really care about Illy & Archie, though, not the rest of BT/Hyjial. If we're on, BT is 4+ hours if we need to do a full clear. If we're not, it's 2 nights. So, a full BT == 1 or maybe 2 days not in Sunwell. Hyjial is more likely 3 hours, less if we're on. So, if we don't have a good night and don't finish BT tonight, will we sacrifice Mon's Sunwell night to finish it off?

I guess I'd just rather focus more time on Sunwell and be opportunistic about taking LF1M's BT instance, when available, instead taking whole night(s) to do full clears.

If we are dedicating whole nights to non-Sunwell, Hyjial seems at least as legit an option as BT to me. Granted, if the whole point of the BT runs is to get Orange loots, then it's moot, I suppose.

Yes, Ham will be picking up

Yes, Ham will be picking up LF1M's BT runs. They just decided to kill Archie this week first. So Ham has to pick it up and move fast tonight.

Well.. glaives are a pretty

Well.. glaives are a pretty big deal. Sets of glaives are an even bigger deal. I think BT is still a worthwhile investment, because sunwell trash is pretty limited where we're at, and we've only been seeing 1 sunwell boss down everyweek (kalecgos, obviously). As our gear upgrades, so does our chances at killing bigger bosses.

Really? A bajillion?

Really? A bajillion? Seems like we've killed Illidan more times than Archimonde.

I don't care about T6 from either Archie or Illidan. There are non-set items from both that I, and I think others, are interested in though. Much of the non set stuff from Archie is just as good as the non-set stuff from Illidan, IMO. Granted, it's not Orange loot.

Still, I'd rather forgo BT & Hyjial entirely and focus solely on Sunwell.

50/50% chance I will or will

Ewiges — Fri, 07/18/2008 - 15:23

50/50% chance I will or will not make it. Entirely unsure of the situation at that time being.

I may be a few minutes late

Minorthreat — Fri, 07/18/2008 - 15:22

I may be a few minutes late tonight.

I often have to really push

Sorahn — Fri, 07/18/2008 - 14:14

I often have to really push things to make 7 so I may not be there from the start.

Is there a reason we're not taking more Brut shots instead of BT?

Lastly, now that LF1M's downed Archie it doesn't seem likely that we're going to have many options to pick up Archie shots from their instance. I don't know about other folks, but I want loots from Archie just as much as from Illidan. A Hyjial run should only take 2-3 hours vs a full BT of 4+...

Already a few bosses down in

garreth — Fri, 07/18/2008 - 14:19

Already a few bosses down in BT. We've killed Arch a bajillion times, so much so that we're NRP'ing a lot of T6 helms. Not my fault you missed the ones where your helm dropped. And, Illy has the best gear to get us past Brut.

Brut shots all day monday.

I'd like to see the Mother Sharaz fight...haven't seen it yet as I didn't have the SR to do it with Hamfist when I went to fill in status, and I took a night off the night LF1M downed her.

i am trying to limit the actual down time i have with finding a house and moving

I has an 8. 8) Will

saedo — Thu, 07/17/2008 - 13:34

I has an 8.

8) Will not stand around waiting for the last few late Hamfisters.
Be at the instance asap! No mucking around with else where with
dailies refusing to get in raid or whatever. Fill the gaps immediately with LF1M
if they're on and switch out for late Hamfisters later if need be.
We pull early no matter what!

---------------------------------------------

i wont be here friday

Nhia (not verified) — Thu, 07/17/2008 - 12:12

i wont be here friday night. Going to stay w/ a friend who's leaving the state. :( He's moving back to washington tho, so that's neat.

Goodluck!

Rules for the One Night

saedo — Thu, 07/17/2008 - 11:58

Rules for the One Night Clear:

1) Do not talk about the One Night Clear. Wait I mean do talk, spread the news!

2) Invites start early

3) Pulls start early

4) Pulls start with < 25 people if necessary

5) Pull fast. Illidan mount is waiting for us.

6) Flask from first pull. Everyone. 2 flasks for the night. Kill stuff faster, take less damage, regen faster, less drinky time. Everyone flasked can make things faster even by 6 whole seconds!

7) There will likely be no marks. With LF1M Arch and Hamfist Brut and little to no trash for em, most if not all are used. BYOF! Bring Your Own Flasks! 2 of em!

8) Will not stand around waiting for the last few late Hamfisters. Be at the instance asap! No mucking around with else where with dailies refusing to get in raid or whatever. Fill the gaps immediately with LF1M if they're on and switch out for late Hamfisters later if need be. We pull early no matter what!

9) Bring your SR gear. And as a side to that, install latest version of EasyMother (http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/11531/).

Thank you and have a nice day!
