Title: RG2 Raid times
Post by: Mjolner on December 06, 2006, 06:32:48 PM
I was a bit dissapointed tuesday evening, when we were about to clear the lab in BWL. It was before 11.00 PM, yet it was announced that too many ppl were leaving to carry on.

We only had 1 pack of mobs, as far as i remember, to get a try or 2 on Firemaw.

Yes, it might happen that one can't raid untill 11.30 (or even 00.00) every single time for whatever reason, and that might be the case, that particular evening. (?)

But on, as I see it, a progression night, shouldn't we push ourselves a little bit more? Half an hour could have been 2 tries, and with luck, focus and dedication maybe even a kill...!
Are people aware that they signed up for raiding to 11.30 PM? (possibly longer IMO on a new boss)

And, btw, very good job in BWL. Was cool to proof that we can at least take the first 3 bosses, even lacking a few people!!!!

yes it was dissapointing, sitting there for so long, and then suddently several had to leave. i even saw a new one saying he always has to leave at around 22.00, and if im not mistaken, it seems to be some of the same ppl leaving early.

lets atleast keep it going to 23.30, over 00.00 is too much. but 23.30 please...

As RG2 member you commit to stay the entire raid sometimes its called early sometimes its not.

By the way- anyone know what happens with tomorrow's raid? I will be home late from work and I will not have the nescesarry time to install all the add ons i need. Are we still pushing for Firemaw?

so agree with you mjolner!
 
This has been bugging me alot!
Yes you got job's but so do we. We aswell got to get up early and work, but still we are comitted to the raid.
personaly there are nights where i only get about 4 hrs of sleep before i need to go to work, but then i go a bit earlier to bed the next day.
 
And im sure that it's the same for Marshalls. Think they are pretty tired of needing to call the raid just because some ppl need to go all of sudden!
(has happend meny times before)
 
1 pack 1 single pack and we could have had a couple trys on Firemaw! Maby we could get him down or maby not. but out of those tries we could maby have study'ed the situation and see what we could make better next try!

It's the new experience that is priceless for a raid group.
 
There are people with night shifts and they need to work. I don't think it's fair to obligate people to stay after 00:00...... But if we want to get down Nef before TBC, then we sure must do as much as possible.....
 
So I strongly suggest that people respecc as fast as possible so that we can continue doing BWL with 3 bosses or more.
 
Let's see how close team we are tonight...

Yeah i agree with u Mjolner, why do ppl leave before 23.00 I know that some have jobs and I understand that but there was just to many leaving.
 
If so many rg2 members have to leave before 23.00 everytime we got some serius problems.
 
I hope it was just a single event.
 
Looking forward tonight where we have to figur out our new talents and make that work...

I left at 22:55 last night cos i had to work the nightshift wich begins at 0:00 and its an easy 30 min drive in nice clear weather wich it hasnt been here in NL for the last few weeks.
 
This summer i have had a few runs where i pushed my timetable to 23:30 b4 leaving for work and this has resulted in a few speeding tickets :doh:  and sometimes even arriving late at work. With the heavy rain the last few days i dont want to take to much risk and therefor have desided to leave at 23:00 to have enough time to arrive safely at work.
 
Luckely tonight and tomorow im free so ill be present till the very end in tonights raid :yahoo:

So the faster we clear all the way up to Broodlord the more time we have on the mobs and Firemaw.
 
And Mjolner to you......when we are able to do Firemaw you have a realy difficult tasks potitioning the boss.......so we don't get buffed to death...
 
Good luck all... let's do a first kill on Raz AND Vael..then all the way through the surpression chamber up to Broodlord....
 
I realy do believe that if we manage to get Broodlord down we sure make a good attempt on Firemaw coming tuesday.... :P
