TBC and Raiding, what will you do?

[Bastet]

To help the officers plan for TBC, we would like to know, what you, the members plan to do when it goes live. Please from this poll pick the option that you think works for you best.
 
Based on outcome of this poll, more information about how SOG will continue raiding in TBC will be posted later on.
 
This poll will close on 1th of Jan, PLEASE vote before that.

Just to put a spanner in the works, when you talk about raiding, is this after reaching 70? Or on the way 60->70 as well? Obviously if all the raid instances turn out to be lvl 70 only then it's not a problem, but from your other post about TBC it would seem the officers don't yet know if there are raid instances 60->70, and I guess if there are then quite a lot of people would like a 'will buy TBC and stop raiding *until* 70, at which point I will start raiding again' option.

[Bastet]

Well, its mainly for the long run, to help us to see how many groups we need, and possible class balance.
 
Just to make clear though, we do not plan to stop raiding over the leveling period, we will find something to kill :woot2:

For me, this vote has atm to go towards buying, but not wanting to raid.  However, not wanting isn't quite right - it's just that I don't see a realistic possibility for that I'll have time to commit to raids.
Still want to though :sad:

I will buy TBC and continue raiding, but at this point I'm not completely sure what to do yet.

1. Play my priest as my first char to level 70, this is because I'm tbh pretty tired of beeing a warrior at the moment.
2. Continue playing my warrior.
3. Got an offer from a friend to start something completely new on a PvP server, hordeguild.

I will most likely go for point 1 if not someone else convinces me to continue with my warrior ;p

[Mazii]

Stay on your warrior. Convinced?

I voted "I will buy TBC and WANT to raid".

[Luminance]

i want too, BUT they gonna make some serieus changes to our school year, and it will cost alot of time, and early starts, so dunno if i can keep it up, but we'll say that later on

[Gorion]

well look at it this way, we can clear bwl in what? 2hrs 30min? (rg1) and that was with a wipe or 2 @vael..

now imagine were lvl 62 or more, with improved abilities better armor/dps, welle prolly be able to do it in less than 1hr 30min...

so lets say we get 5g from each boss (sometimes its 7g..) and 8 bosses

so thats 40-56g without breaking a sweat, earning a little bit of xp, nexus crystals/bop items for the guild, and not to mention that we have Fun while raiding..

so, you wanna miss all that stuff for 1hr 30min or maybe a bit more?

[Sinap]

Not gonna bother, I may do one day if I get bored, but at the moment, I wont be buying it.

[Mjolner]

While leveling there may not be any new raid-instances, only smaller 5-10 mans, i guess.. (not confident, but from what i've read...)

But the old 40-mans will still be here, and, I'm guessing, alot of ppl wouldn't mind taking a look at them once in a while, especially AQ40 & Naxx.
For me, that's a great opportunity to at least be able to say:
"Yup, done those..!"
And u will most likely get XP from them too, and have an advantage 'cause you're a couple of levels higher.

I don't really know how the "common" gear will look in TBC, but, again i'm guessing, gear from Naxx would help you out 'till you get the new raid-zone drops...?

[Moonwind]

Moonys defo buying it and still wants to raid as much as poss

[Luthor]

Havent voted yet. as im not 100% sure... but...
 
its a raid instance you will get around 15 exp per mob kill.... thats nothing to mention really

[Luminance]

what about naxx mobs, think they do a bit more x;p

[Mazii]

Don't think so. They are same level, some are just harder then others.

[Tanales]

well we said during leveling, not that we would do them to level, and if we will be raiding we'll probably only do Naxx cause that last BWL run RG1 had was horrible.
