Raid Zone: 
SSc

SSC again this week. We will stay in ssc till we can have a successfull run. the past 2 ssc's have been horriable. I wanna see us back to where we know we can be in there. It's been over a mo since we have downed Vashj. same call rules as always. 2 calls per person. save saedo the trouble and only make ssc calls. we will NOT be going into tk this week. If you dont know call rules and how we do things pst me in game or catch me in vent. once invites start calls are closed PERIOD. so even if you dont think you will make it post calls anyhow just in case.

 

RULES:

Calls are for main toons only. Period. NO calls for alts at any
time. Calls go to main raiders for main spec first. After that they go
to non-main raiders for main spec first. Items not called for main spec
will then be rolled for main spec use first.

Once all items have been distributed to main specs, calls for
offspec items may then be made. When making an offspec call you must
note that it is an offspec call in your post.

Items that have no calls will be rolled to main spec first then to
off spec. Alts may only win items no mains need/want no matter the
alt's spec.

Alts will only be allowed into the raid at the discretion of the
raid leader for composition and balance purposes and where no main is
available to fill the spot.

All characters, be it alt or main, MUST come as main spec unless the offspec is needed to make the run happen.

Once invites start, calls are closed. PERIOD. Put your calls in even
if you are unsure if you will make it in case the run spills over into
sunday. Calls do not reopen for a sunday cleanup.

Talk to me in vent if you have any questions as to these rules.

garreth — Thu, 06/19/2008 - 14:38

Once this becomes a discussion about alts and offspecs we turn this into a malt run.

The goal of these runs, like star said, is for our main raiders to get in there and top themselves off, to make themselves better and to give up and coming raiders a shot at some decent gear.

As soon as this devolves into an alt discussion, we're pulling the plug and making in a malt run, free for all.

And if we don't get enough mains in, well obviously all our mains have everything they need and we fold this. I absolutely refuse to be drawn into a YET AGAIN stupid discussion about "what ifs" and "ok, my main is an alt."

Mains sign up. Not enough? Don't raid. Enough? Great, raid. Easy.

starstalker — Thu, 06/19/2008 - 14:23

 

I think the original purpose of these runs, were smash and grabs aimed at getting mains the 1 or 2 pieces of gear they may have missed while their raids were in SSC/TK, and not necessarily gearing up alts and off-specs, hence the restrictions on calling.

Shihli — Thu, 06/19/2008 - 14:13

Just saying, Grasen, you might see more people volunteering to attend if there was limited alt usage allowed.  Luchs and Shihli are both appropriately geared to attend SSC and TK instances (and hell, Luchs isn't far off from where Turth was going into BT/MH back in the day).

I might wait for another couple of BT runs, Ardea.  The [Guise of the Tidal Lurker] is pretty great.

Katibug — Thu, 06/19/2008 - 14:56

Not trying to make a "what if" but it's a fine line here.  I'm cool with not being able to roll on them, but if I need them to do my RAID job on Brutallus then I don't see why I couldn't roll on them...

Hell, I'd be willing to roll on them w/ anyone else who claims one to make it a little more fair/PC/whatever.

saedo's picture

The rules are a bit

saedo — Thu, 06/19/2008 - 13:52

The rules are a bit contradictory.

1st paragraph.   "Calls are for main toons only"

2nd paragragh.  "Once all items have been distributed to main specs, calls for offspec items may then be made"

So saying there are offset calls allowed here.

Well still a question for alts, why not let them make the calls?  But they'd be 3rd on priority after mains, main offsets, then alt calls.

Grasen's picture

Because then people would

Grasen — Thu, 06/19/2008 - 13:56

Because then people would EXPECT to be allowed to bring their alts.  

It's also more stuff you would needlessly have to track.

saedo — Thu, 06/19/2008 - 13:59

But I can see being an offnight raid you might need an alt to get things rolling.    An extra healer, an extra tank.   But I guess it should never really be 1 or 2 of those so might not need em to call stuff.

Grasen — Thu, 06/19/2008 - 13:52

see paragraph 1 and 2. she can call them. just the likly hood of gitting them may be slim. no t5 has ever gone to an off spec thus far. 

Katibug's picture

I'd like to call T5 leggings

Katibug — Thu, 06/19/2008 - 13:43

I'd like to call T5 leggings off Fathomlord and Helm off Vashj.

This would be for a balance set in the offchance we allow a boomkin for Brutallus.

Shihli's picture

I, too, see little reason

Shihli — Thu, 06/19/2008 - 13:37

I, too, see little reason why people can't make calls for offspec items and for their alts.  So long as they understand that if a raiding main makes the same call, the raiding main gets priority no questions asked.

saedo's picture

I'd go a little further. 

saedo — Thu, 06/19/2008 - 13:41

I'd go a little further.  Even if a main didn't call it as one of their 2.  If it's an upgrade, they should still have priority.

Grasen — Fri, 06/20/2008 - 03:04

Nhia outta curosity as I dont understand resto shammys and holy pallies very well, What makes sextent main spec for Garreth yet offspec for you?

Tsunami is a no brainer but, I dont understand sextant.

 

 

Edit: after rereading some of this thread i noticed Garreth calling this item a fun toy.  Are you saying this is not an item you would use for your main raid job Garreth? Please clarify here. If that is the case it needs to fall in the offspec catagory.
