And sounds like Agar had a fun ZG run.

Stupid groups make that encounter not fun at all.

Start: Queue as DPS for random Zandalari heroic.
- Get ZG. Whatever. Hate it, but ok.
- Phase in to in progress dungeon. On Jin'do. Sweet! Final boss, here comes hopefully 140 relatively easy VP.
- Wipe once. Ok, this one was my fault. I stood in a chain instead of next to it on my bodyslam. Wasted the bodyslam. We wiped.
- Take blame. Notice SPriest is doing ~3k DPS. WTF?
- Turns out SPriest is in half healing gear... but not enough to DPS OR Heal. Pallyhealz has a ret spec, but SPriest is like "Nooooo can't heal." What the fuck dude?
- DKTank wants to carry SPriest. Fuck it, I'll tear through buff food like it's going out of style to carry this guy.
- Wipe twice more. Pally healz quits. *sigh*
- Receive new healer in Drood healz. Sweet!
- Wipe once. Drood calls out tank for taking way too much damage. We all inspect tank. Tank has mostly PvP gear, 2 pieces 346 DPS gear, and 2 pieces 333-346 tank gear. Total dodge rating was like... 200, and parry might have been 250. Lolsrsly?
- We get in shouting match with tank. Tank starts going "Wahhhhh." I point out he has no mitigation, healers don't have infinite mana, he's poorly geared. Healer backs me up. Boom, roasted.
- Tank challenges me to tank it. I say fuck it, why not.
- I tank it. Things go much smoother in terms of the survival, but RDPS is still atarded.
- SPriest quits. Thank god.
- Drood heals quits.
- We get new SPriest and Pallyheals.
- 11 wipes later, me and DK-nowDPS rage at Hunter and new Spriest for wasting bodyslams repeatedly because "Lolz we're DPSing chains guys!" I ragequit.

That's just . . . wow. This is why I've only run ZA twice (1 successful) and ZG once (0 successful). Much more comfortable with the regular heroics which have become pretty much facerolls at this point.

[AGar]

I've yet to clear ZG. First time I ran it, our tank wanted to chainpull like it was a regular and decided he didn't need to explain shit. Half the group quit. Second time, we cleared all but Jin'do. Wiped a number of times on him because Random Dungeon Finder gave us only one ranged (really think you need two to beat it at this point in time). Third time was with you/Tans, and I had to leave after the first boss. Final time was that run.

I really want to clear that, because it's not that hard. If you don't waste the bodyslams, it's a cake walk, but my group kept being like "LOLOLOL FACEROLL FACEROLL"

Thinking about starting WoW up again...

Doooo it. Not like you have to pay for it for a while anyway.

An elemental shaman to give my druid more buffs: Yes.

[AGar]

Up to 348 for my prot spec. Finally have a full true tank set of gear and not using DPS bracers anymore.

I read this as: I'm willing to tank ZA ZG for you guys whenever so Tans can DPS.

[AGar]

You read that as: AGar will tank ZA/ZG when he's around so long as people aren't fucking retarded and I don't wipe on Jin'do 11 times.

[tanstalas]

Still no ZG finish?

[AGar]

No. I didn't even bother queueing earlier today, I just ran a couple regs to get the last push to exalted with ramkahen, and managed to get enough JP in the process to upgrade my tanking hands to 346 from 333. I may run it tonight, assuming I'm awake. I'd like to get the clear, but I dunno. Just seems to piss me off every time.

[tanstalas]

Yeah, I joined a pug on first boss the other day, and flasked. We managed to complete everything before flask wore off. I was very impressed

[AGar]

I'm now reading one of the best ways to burn the spirit world is to have a healer kite the spirits, if possible. Mainly resto drood, I don't know how many other classes have HoTs for efficient heals, but that sounds pretty boss if you ask me.

Agar: They fixed the first boss of BWL finally. What nights are you on this week so we can tackle that place out for classic raider? (Kai and I we're 4 eggs from 2 manning it tonight )

[Nightson]

1. A priest can't be in half healing gear. I mean he could be over the hit cap because he has a lot of spirit, but that's not going to make a huge difference.
2. If the priest hasn't healed before, then him healing would be pretty bad.
3. Shadow priests will do horrible damage if they're trying to burst down adds. My friend who pulls 14k dps in raids was pulling 6k on spirits.
4. Make sure to kill the big spirit add, it stacks up an attack speed buff the longer it's alive, this might have killed your tank, that or him trying to tank a bunch of the little spirits at once too.


Strategy for the boss, have everybody stack up near one of the chains. DPS killing shades to keep them off the healer and dodging purple. Big guy jumps and breaks the shield everyone is standing around. Kill the big spirit. DPS the chain down while it's still in the 100% damage buff zone. When it dies tank pulls another spirit, everyone stacks around another chain and you repeat. Stick a DPS on the adds full time if people aren't killing them when everyone should be doing it.

[tanstalas]

All of the successful teams I have been in have grabbed a big guy, had him break 2 chains, kill him, grab another big guy, break 3rd chain, kill big guy then kill all 3 chains. The spirits dont have a lot of health, if you have 2 ranged dos they should by dying QUICKLY. People get hit with that little circle thing way too much imo

I'm off tonight this week. That's about it. I was off last night too, but passed out wicked early. I'm down tonight though, definitely.

Yeah. PUGs are basically just unattentive as fuck. I know I can be sometimes, tbf.

[dramonic]

maybe I'll get on tonight...

[Flameaxe]

Why do you decide to do this on a night I need to sit around studying for finals.

[AGar]

Pfft. Studying for finals is overrated. /musicmajordropout

[Flameaxe]

National standardized Organic Chemistry finals Passing saves me money for taking a summer class.

[AGar]

Oh, it's O-Chem. O-Chem is rough, sooooo many of my friends got raped silly by it. Poor forensics majors lol. Worst classes for me were physics.

[Flameaxe]

I'm borderline getting raped silly by it. I would know for sure, but my douche of a teacher has yet to post a grade report since right after our first midterm.

[AGar]

Oof. Well get to studying so we can get to beating the face of BWL in later :p
