Mother Shahraz Resist Gear Push

garreth — Fri, 02/22/2008 - 12:11

UPDATE 2/22: FIRST PULL SHAHRAZ CHECK LIST, SIGN UP NOW: /node/795

Like Princess Huhuran, and Ragnaros before her, the Downfall raids have a big gear check ahead of them in Mother Shahraz. Currently, Raid: Hamfist is knocking on her doorstep, and all we need are raw materials to make this happen. Every single raider that faces Shahraz will need 295 Shadow resist unbuffed. That's a lot. But have no fear, our eggheads have been doing some math. (Click the title to read more!)

Saedo made some calculations and determined a quick and dirty way to hit our base shadow resist as efficiently as possible.

It looks something like this:

  • Black Temple
  • 25 Man
  • Raid

Hamfist: Shahraz

Raid Zone: 
Black Temple


Mother Shahraz shots.

Every single one of our raiders needs 275-295 unbuffed shadow resistance. If even a few raiders show up without this amount, raid will be called off. You've known about this for two months, there is no excuse to not have your gear made.

Please reply here with your expected resist value so we can make a list:

  • Garreth - 294
  • Saedo - 295
  • Starstalker - 278
  • Diky - 290
  • Mnor - 242
  • Vulk - 298
  • Tankard - 293
  • Vossa - 294
  • Nuitarin - 294
  • Luminaire - 295
  • Shinzwei- 277
  • Katibug - 294
  • Antiquite - 260
  • Nettibeb - 283
  • Turth - 260

Farming for SR Gear Mats

I will be farming bog lords in SW Zangarmarsh for [Primal Life] and then probably pop up to Manaforge Ultris in Netherstorm to farm [Primal Shadow] off of the voids there.

Bloodboil ... boils... ?

Bloodboil DownBloodboil Down

Kick ass job tonight. It's a healing nightmare and we had to recruit eight healers to pull it off. We moved on quickly to Reliquary of Souls and promptly got smooshed. A lot. We have some homework to do ;)

Good job guys, we've made some huge progress!

Drops were:
Luminaire picked up:
[itememb]Vest of Mounting Assault[/itememb]
Epatrick snagged:
[itememb]Blood-cursed Shoulderpads[/itememb]

GPS - Zul'Aman

Raid Zone: 
Zul'Aman

GPS still planning a run this Sunday as scheduled.  We'll try to accomodate for the Vashj run going on before that but hopefully it will be done before we get started causing no delay.

I will cross-reference Raidar, but now that Garreth has been so awesome as to let us sign up for things on our own website, I'll be moving to this from now on.

See you there!

TBC Raiding Rogue Guide

saedo — Tue, 02/12/2008 - 11:05

This is my guide for the raiding rogue, or those aspiring to be one. It covers everything you'd need to know about specs, gearing, and the dps itself. Hope you find this useful. Feel free to suggest things to add or ask questions. Enjoy.

My sources will be from various people and posts at Elitist Jerks, WoWWiki, and WoW Forums. Pretty much in that order of importance.

 

Definitions

SnD - Slice and Dice

Cycle - The order in which you use up your combo points. Often, notation will look like 1s/5r or 5s/5r basically Xs/Yr. What that denotes is to use finisher "s" after X amount of combo points, then finisher "r" after Y amount of combo points, then repeat. In our cases, "s" will be Slice and Dice, "r" will be Rupture, "e" will be Eviserate. Also, an additional notation sometimes is "Xs/Yr cut". What "cut" means is to start the cycle again immediately refreshing SnD even if there is a lot of time left on it. Those type of cycles tend to tell you that your energy will start to cap before SnD wears off and it's not worth using other finishers, so it's better to just refresh SnD beforehand.

Energy Capping - Energy comes at 20 sec per tick (normally) regardless of what you do and caps at 100 (normally). When energy is capped out at 100, additional energy ticks do nothing and are thus wasted.

 

7 Commandments of Rogue DPS

First off, here's a great set of rules Aldriana at EJ posted for rogues. If nothing else, follow these to maximize your dps.

  • Black Temple
  • Hyjal
  • 10 Man
  • SSC
  • 25 Man
  • Sunwell
  • Rogue
  • Tempest Keep
  • Karazhan
