Please watch this video before this raid!

Basic functional plan for HM Faction Champions:

1)  Better man-to-man snaring on the rogue and warrior.  What we WEREN'T doing, was alerting the raid as to what our target was actually doing.  That is to say, let's make an example.

Let's say I'm controlling the rogue, and Quisjaa is controlling the warrior.  I need to say on vent who the Rogue is chasing ("Rogue coming for Rupta") so that if the rogue shadowsteps, they can get quick heals or move out quickly.  Quisjaa would need to say who the warrior is chasing, and if he's bladestorming.

Going to watch the video above a few more times to make sure I have a better feel for how to chain-snare my target for Friday.

2)  Healers need to plan around this being a LONG fight, not a short, bursty fight.

3)  Heroism right off the bat may not be the best idea.

4)  Have a rogue, prot warrior, and any other stun-heavy class sticking on the Horde healers for spell control.

5)  Stronger focused dps.

Basic plan is what Zildo mentioned in the last thread:

a)  Kill the healers.

b)  Kill the "big melee dps" - warrior and rogue specifically, but I imagine the DK and ret pally would be here too.

c)  Kill the ranged dps.  They deal the least "burst" damage so their damage is more controllable as compared to the warrior or rogue.  "Heal through it" basically.

Going to have some people from other guilds involved as well.  Hopefully this run will get off the ground.

NEED ANY AND ALL POSSIBLE DOWNFALLERS IN THIS RAID THOUGH!  Lv. 75-80 in an ideal universe.  Come with strats understood.

For those of you who are new to the guild in Wrath, let me introduce you to raid mALT.  I formed mALT for the sole purpose of getting phat loots for those evil evil alts, and give us raiders a chance to do progression content (albeit behind) under a different role then the first time around.

All of a sudden melee raiders were healing, healers were killin stuff, and people really started to relate to other class roles.  Raid : ALT developed into raid mALT when we began having quite a few of the raiding mains come along for sheer fun.  We then decided for the good of the guild we would crusade to put a [28830] on every main raider who  needed it before we put it on an alt.  Mage tanking in Gruul's lair was probably one of the coolest things I ever got to do in wow...and it was on an alt. ;)

Many of you have run with us and know that we have very few rules, but we do have some...and here they are:

1.  Be geared enough for the content.  Don't come in all greens and blues guys...hit the heroics first, put some meat in your gear.  If we need to fill raid, and greens & blues are the only option that's fine, but we will fill first with those with the gear to support their weight.  We may be alts, but we don't like repair bills. (I always try to bring some ringers who don't really need gear, but wanna come for fun and mega dps)

2. Know your strats. I will do some strat before bosses, as people do things different in other raids, but we will be doing things MY way when we run.  I understand people have different ways of doing things (gauntlet WTF Ryan?????) .

3. Sign up and be on time. When events are scheduled, I run a confirmed list up until the day of the raid.  Raid will be filled first on Class balance, then sign ups.  Invites will begin at 4:45 server, I begin hunting replacements at 5pm server and we roll out as soon as we're full enough to go.

4. You want it, you roll for it.  Basically everything is a free for all.  We don't care what spec you are now or were yesterday, if your a main or an alt.  Simple and easy, drama free.

5. HAVE FUN. I stop doing these the minute it stops being fun.   No QQs cause you didn't get in this week, no QQs over loot, and make sure to check the bad attitude at the instance door.

This raid is open to guildies and guild apps alike, so sign up and let's kill some shit!
