Raid: The Aristocrats (Working Title) 10 Man *TIME CHANGE
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_aristocrats
Potential other titles: Nihilist Vanillists, Raider Welfare Program, Subprime Loan Sharks, Spicy Yellowtails, THIS IS GNOMERAGON!!!
This is not a progression raid per se. The primary objective is to have fun and alts are welcome….
Destination: Trial of the Crusader (10 Man/Woman)
Pre-req's
1) Looking for raiders (alts or mains) that are at least Naxx 25 geared (ideally a little Ulduar gear mixed in there)
2) If you are a main, please ensure that you won't get in trouble for locking yourself ahead of a prescheduled team run later on in the week (Git-R-Done, Lava Crab, Existensialist Rabbit come to mind)
3) Be prepared for wipes
4) Read All Crusader's Coliseum Strategy guides
Loot Rules
No differentiation or priority to mains over alts
Tempted to say 1 item per run until everyone get's a chance, but essentially let's not be greedy please. This will be MS>OS, though OS will get priority if the only MS wanting an item has already taken one during the run. Any loot drama not covered by above rules will be resolved by common sense or raid vote - this IS a cheerocracy.
Note: We will potentially finish this run on thursday, should we fail to kill twin val'kyrs tomorrow

Tank 1: Karesh (Druid)Tank
Kwondre — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 13:40Group Comp:
Tank 1: Karesh (Druid)
Tank 2: ? MUST be Death Knight
Heals 1: Keisjaa (Priest)
Heals 2: Minor (Paladin)
Heals 3: Tuque (Paladin)
Melee DPS 1: Kwonzaa (Warrior)
Melee DPS 2: Kognus (Paladin)
Range DPS 1: Draconia (Shaman)
Range DPS 2: Megaturtle (Mage)
Range DPS 3: Jayel (Warlock)
That is the only way that I can see this working with three paladins, unless Jayel can also tank on his Death Knight, or Minor can tank on his Paladin.
DK can not tank at this
Jayel — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 13:43DK can not tank at this time. Close to def cap but it hasn't been a priority for me since I already have a decent tank.
Is Pulga MIA with school?
Kwondre — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 13:40Is Pulga MIA with school?
I can DPS on my lock or DK,
Jayel — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 11:18I can DPS on my lock or DK, or tank on Jay. I probably wont be on until 3:30ish ST but I'll check back here before then so I know who to get ready.
Would really love your dk in
Dragon — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 12:10Would really love your dk in GRD this week......that's just me though
So I got cut? :(
Kognus — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 11:17So I got cut? :(
whoa whoa whoa...no one gets
Kwondre — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 13:18whoa whoa whoa...no one gets cut buddy!...but invites have been (for the past three weeks) first come first serve with some caveats for group composition.
Right now, the potential paladin population (or PPP) of this raid includes:
Minor (Holy Pally / maybe pally tank? or Rogue) - and yes he confirmed with me last night, despite not having his name signed here.
Tuque (Holy)
Kognus (Ret)
Jayel (Pally Tank, DK, Lock)
We can't take four paladins. It would be a stretch to even take three imo. Yet we need another tank besides Karesh, while ensuring we have enough CC for faction champs.
If anyone can help me concoct a combination that works and makes everyone happy - I'm all ears.
You should take...
Stryyfe — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 14:2810 paladins imo. no. really. ^,=,^
Reading some forums...my gut
Kwondre — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 10:50Reading some forums...my gut tells me Koralon will NOT be up today...so in terms of forming, we'll start invites at 4ish...and if we fill by 4:01 we will pull at 4:01...but 4:30 is back to the soft pull time.
Without Koralon, expecting our time allocation to be as such:
Buff: 30 seconds
Northrend beasts: 5 minutes. Plz no icehowl crash-driven wipes. (We might attempt http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=3797 because we are pro)
Jaraxxus: 10 minutes (might even attempt http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=3996 because we are pro)
Faction Champions: Maybe 2 pulls + strategy discussion, so 20 minutes.
That would leave us with about an hour for Twin Val'kyrs - though watching the video the fight seems somewhat straightforward.
me and mnor still have to
everstar — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 10:10me and mnor still have to talk to the officers of our 10 man, and if we do CC during the weekdays then mnor would be healing on kosmos i believe, if theres still open spots for heals. if we are doing it this weekend, he takes sip
Cool...last I heard from
Kwondre — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 10:12Cool...last I heard from grasen was that EXR was gonna not do CC on the weekend and try to do it after KB on Tuesday/Wednesday. But lemme know - spots still quite flexible
**Time Change** to
Kwondre — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 07:43**Time Change** to 4 PM Server time instead of 4:30. We will be attempting the new VOA boss in 10 man first.
BTW, this wasn't the original design of this raid group, but did ya'll notice that we seem to be on the cutting edge of boss clearing each week since we're running this on Tuesdays? Anywho...
ACTUALLY.... I don't think
saedo — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 10:21ACTUALLY.... I don't think Koralon will be up today.
It says here: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=19110027050&sid=1
Season 6 will end today.
The next season will start in a week.
So next week, Koralon. Probably. Someone go confirm?
Does this effect start times?
Let's plan to start forming
Kwondre — Tue, 08/25/2009 - 10:28Let's plan to start forming around 4 PM...by then we should have at least an indication of whether he is attemptable or not...for all we know he might be attemptable but WG could be closed to us.
But if any of you that are signed up can't make it till 4:30, then that's fine - we will wait.
