I am reminded that I did not post about our raid on Sunday….omg…it was well worth a mention to 🙂
We have lost a healer and a tank somewhere to the maelstrom. So we need to recruit – anyway with only 9 available raiders online we decide to at least start DS – we 9 manned Morchok and 2 healed him.
We then trundle off to Warlord – 9 manning does not work with 2 healing simply because of the ball debuff. 4 people cannot handle the damage in our raid group. So we switched a DPS to a healer which makes it slightly more manageable. Slightly!
Another DPS turns up online, YAY – so we grab them in and set off again for an attempt, which we balls up (excuse the pun) and then one of our other DPS dc’s…..so we wait around a few minutes. With the thunderstorms and rain in Australia at the moment we figure he will be back….after 15 minutes we decide that he is not going to be returning….
I then decide to come up with a crazy crazy idea to just bring in one of the level 85’s in the guild to just be a soaker as our dps is good enough to kill the boss, but not our stamina…we could 9 man the rest of this wing.
So that’s what we did. Poor druid! he did very well for hardly any explanation of the fight and told to just stay on the marked toon and run like mad when advised.
We did 9 man Skittles boss before we got the druid in, and we almost did better than when we have a full raid team 😀
So now, we have to recruit more people again. Just two people, one healer and one dps…someone who doesn’t mind wiping or doesn’t mind just having a laugh and isn’t progression focused….that last bit is the killer….
All in all we had a good raid night I think – I mean, 9 manning 2 bosses 🙂 Sweet!! and 9.5 manning the other 2 was awesome 🙂
