Here's a rundown of our schedule for Saturday's 11/14 10 man ulduar hardmodes

Hardmodes:
-------
XT
Iron Council: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIHXQJ1tyPk
Mimiron: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dowAs9Q528U With the ever lovely Aliena before tankspot.
Thorim
Vezax (maybe depending on time)
Yogg 1 light: http://www.youtube.com/user/Ciderhelm#p/u/40/pnrSVREmmWQ

Special achieves Normal modes:
-------
FL: Unbroken
Kologarn: Don't kill the hands achieve
Freya: Lumberjack maybe

Normal Normal modes:
-----
Hodir (will probobly activate hard mode anyways but not going to specifically try for it)
Auriyaya

Break time very important read this We will be having a break at 7:25 server that will go until 7:40 or for ONLY THIS MONDAY 8, until that time I expect no afks, brbs, bios, or anything except for that time, use it for whatever you need such as grabbing food, surf the internet, bios, or just to unwind for a minute but don't do it unless it's during this time. Note for future raids it will not be this long but I need a half hour due to a dormitory meeting that they won't let me skip out of (apparently raid is not important enough) for future purposes breaks will be going for only 15 minutes unless otherwise noted and brought up about.


Idea is we hit FL and XT hard and spend a little bit of time on Iron Council hard mode, then waste Kolo without killing his arm to the best of our ability. From there burn the Auriyaya down. Then we will take some time on Mimiron's Firefighter hardmode, afterwords if we have time we will take down the keepers in the way specified if we have the time. Afterwards run down to Vezax look at time and decide normal or hard mode. From there we do Yogg 1 until he dies and we hopefully walk out with a shiny drake.

And if all goes perfect and we have lots of time left I would like to get attempts in on Algalon, if all goes bad we will complete what we haven't done on 11/16 monday. I will have video's for each of the hardmodes posted when I'm not in class (aka now).

Now I would also like to use this thread to discuss future things, namely what do we do when we get our meta, and opinions on staying together for Icecrown Citadel 10 man.

As to the first point my idea is to get all of our regulars and substitutes Glory of the Ulduar raider, from there what we do is tricky. Depending if we decide to act on Icecrown Citadel or not, what I would like to start doing after all our mains and substitutes have the meta is to sell them to people on the server, we then for the first few ones donate the money to the meep guild bank for materials for future raids and then eventually split said money up amongst ourselves (I have seen the things go between 10-20k gold each meaning 1-2k gold a week). But at the same time I'm not dictating we do anything but instead would like to open it to discussion as to what you think.

Then we have the issues if we want to permanently make this a 2 day thing seeing as the last two weeks we have extended the schedule to monday to go further.

Then there is the issue of Icecrown Citadel, the patch for 3.3 could come any day, do we who come from assorted backgrounds and assorted guilds want to stay together and conquer the citadel or do your respective guilds have different plans?

This thread is for the discussion of all of these ideas and as to comments or criticism to this week schedule but please try to be civil.

[SaucE]

If Saturday is one of the planned days to do this, I would love to get in on this.  Red knows my toons/history so I will let him decide if and what he wants.

[Oroborous]

Honestly atm we are overflowed with members (we have 14 most days and 4 sit out, that's who shows up not who signs up).

[Red]

Yo Oro!

(1) MEEP guild bank is perfectly willing to do this. However, I want to make sure to avoid any real conflicts. What would we be saving the money for, precisely--flasks and enchants? If it's anything more complex than this, or if we really want to keep it separate, I'd recommend using another guild bank. However, if it's just for enchants and whatnot, then it should be fine, since it'll only be the first bit of gold anyway.

(2) Herald of the Titans--defeat Alganon in only Ulduar 10-level gear. Let's start saving gear for this, huh?

(3) Good news! I spoke with Morghul, and he's totally cool with me committing myself to this 10man for Icecrown. So if we decide to stick together for that... ^_^

I like Oro's idea of including some profit alongside our achievements and progression. It's everything I've ever wanted from a 10man. :x

[Oroborous]

Ya it would only be for like repairs enchants and flasks, other then that it's all good and besides would only stash up 3-4 times due and that should make us set until cata.

[Oroborous]

I apologize to the portal group for Yogg-1 but I am having problem finding a lunatic gaze map so I will just say for now, if you get beams on you, just turn away and strafe to your destination.

[Tonberrium]

So, you guys are on Yogg already? Sweet.

[Oroborous]

Completed normal last week as a moral booster after an hour and a half of "Don't run into the clouds, no excuse for it especially ranged"

[Bout]

To the guideline at the top,  everyone could read on the boss fight so we don't waste 10 min explaining XT every time and other boss.

The pace of the past run was quite slow. For hard mode, people should use flask, and it's quite annoying that a flask last only for 2 boss.

I'm interested and you can count me in for friday/saturday night,  but I have 25mans on day week + I can't stay up as late (unlikely that I can go monday unless 25mans is cancelled)

[Oroborous]

Alright no problem bout nice of you to chime in with your opinion it's more than most have done. I have posted links only to strats we haven't done as our standins have been to every hard mode but the ones we haven't now.

[Tonberrium]

I talked with Marie before my time ran out, and she said my spot was temporarily filled. Once you guys get the meta, will you wait for some of the stragglers (i.e. mainly me, who needs like three hours worth of achievements to get it)?

I'd hate to have to pug up a group for it. =/

[Bout]

ok, since server is buggy and I have free time,  here's raid friendly caster buff

3 important one for caster heavy raid
13% spell dmg :
Curse of element (Any warlock), Earth and moon (boomkin), Ebon plague (unholy DK)
Spellpower buff
Demonic pact (demo warlock), flametongue(less powerful than other option (shaman)), Totem of wrath (elem shaman)
3% hit buff :
Misery (shadow priest), Faerie fire (boomkin)
5% hit buff :
wrath of air (shaman)

other goddies
5% Crit buff :
boomkin aura (druid), elemental oath (elem shaman)
5% Crit debuff :
winter's chill (frost mage),  Scorch (fire mage with glyph),  Imp shadowbolt (warlock)
3% haste
boomkin aura,   ret aura (ret pally)

So in 10 man,  a boomkin provide most of the important caster buff,  hit, %sp, crit, haste
or a demo warlock %SP, sp, crit,  raid has to be really caster heavy to bring a demo warlock, (with spriest and mage heavy) (no boomkin or elem shaman).

List of all Ulduar10 achievement.  Worth a look "BEFORE" we start a boss to make sure we have a viable strat.

Nerf scrapbot,
Rumble and roll
Lumberjacked,

it's better to read and plan ahead if we want to try that. might need to bring xtra tank/heal, or twitch some off-spec (frost mage)

[Bout]

Out of town tonight.  (Nov21),  won't be able to make the run unless a miracle happen.

[Red]

Suddenly the same situation here... suffice to say, either I take tonight off, or I take the next several months off looking for work :/
