Certainly quite worried about this encounter, we could have real issues at Gruul. No Crag or feral whats the chance of that!
May need to use me to take the HS as I'm not sure anyone else has the gear to stand that?
Would be good if all the tanks can detail their unbuffed HP, and armour, and their defence

I am not likely to be about on this day, im not just forgetting to sign up
350 miles to drive in one day will be the longest ever for me :/
However if im about at some point and u really need help i might be able to. but dont count on me.

We may be ok, problem could be having the OT able to withstand the HS. Sure i can do the OT but then we do not have a MT used to tanking this encounter, if Deads gear is upto it he can probably handle it though with a quick chat as its not really as hairy as it used to be when we were learning.
Only other obvious option is you lend dead your password and give him a quick pally tanking lesson, and if we cant handle it with our signedup people he uses crag for the OT role?
Have noticed that NK is signed as DPS though so his bear stats may be good enough for the OT role...

I doubt, no offense to Dead
, that he could learn the ways of pala tanking in a tutorial for 30mins, Jen still doesnt understand half of my spells lol.

From the sign ups either Deadeye or Nightkale will have to be the OT. So far we seem to be a bit short on healers as well : we *can* do it with 6 if it's really needed, we have enough gear and experience now for this. Will just be a hectic start at Maul'gar. Gruul with 6 healers would certainly shorten the encounter alot due to imba DPS, but DPS are advised to bring some ehalth pots here.

Unbuffed I am at about 12.7K hp, 14K armor and 520 Def.
Not quite Feral or Ako's level but it should do, be it for MT or OT-ing Gruul. As off-tank growth ~14 would be my limit approximately.
Either way we will be fine for Gruul, even with only 6 healers.

For HS tanking remember it can't crit or crush, so feel free to sacrifice some other stats to max armor and stamina. +armor pots might come in handy around grow 8 or so if you are undergeared.
@ Thu, 19/07/2007 - 16:40
it's all about HP as Off tank : the next HS takes about 8-10 seconds, no matter the hit, the OT healers should be able to fill you back up in that time. Anyway with only a few tanks and little ehalers we should have some really sick DPS
@ Fri, 20/07/2007 - 11:12
lol the second me and crag are away the foundations crumble! muhahahahaaa
tho seriously im sure u'l be fine, everyone knows the encounter.

Sorry but I have had to unsign, a 3 hour road trip just took 10 hours. At one point we did 70 miles in 8 hours
Anyway the rain and floods in SW England have really fooked up my weekend, so much so that there is no way I am going to be back in time for the raid. Sorry about that.
I demand that my demand for demands that I get demands be met!

If any of the currently "self reserve" hunters could join us that would be nice. Tanking the Shaman add without a hunter will be rather difficult.

Actualy Deadeye mages can also tank him, and we have enough of those for this raid.
@ Sun, 22/07/2007 - 09:31
Thats what we will be doing. I would prefer the one or the other person in the raid who has had the experience with it and maybe a bit of resistance gear for it.

it's about holding aggro from ranged and keeping the chain lits of the raid. We use hunters because they have a NR aura. mages will takes more damage but it should indeed be doable as HM said.
