[Irenke]

Yay, raid! Just for my sanity -- and to keep people in the loop -- the roster for this week is as follows:

• Tank1: Yatana (Protection paladin)
  
• Tank2: Drenso (Blood death knight)
  
• Healer1: Lujza (Restoration druid)
  
• Healer2: Azuni (Restoration shaman)
  
• Healer3: Lantro (Discipline priest)
  
• DPS1: Leygolas (hunter)
  
• DPS2: Mysterica (Enhancement shaman)
  
• DPS3: Blackshae (Retribution paladin)
  
• DPS4: Kylozo (Shadow priest)
  
• DPS5: Milkyjoe (Warlock)

I'm still in the process of searching for a suitable replacement tank for Kril (because he sucks). If I can't locate one, I suppose that we could have Don swap over to Clindrie again (who, by the by, was awesome) or have Shae tank since he has in the past expressed a willingness to swap to Protection if needed. Hopefully this won't be needed; I'll be looking within the guild to see if any tanks want to join for this week and then search outside of the guild.

While I have the opportunity, I'd like to thank both Selk and Vexal for joining us last week. You guys are awesome and it's always a pleasure and a privilege to be raiding with you. ♥

Also, really awesome job last week! In four and a half hours, our little neophyte raid managed to down twelve boseses, clear the entirety of Tier 11 content, and snag some people gear. I'm planning on continuing this trend for the next couple of weeks and then we'll look into exploring both the Firelands and maybe one or two heroic bosses. If we focus on heroic bosses, it'll be one at a time with a hard cap on that boss; if we down that one, we'll work on the next the following week. If we make noticeable and repeated progress on heroic bosses, I'll extend a lockout and we'll continue from there.

Note: heroic bosses are considered a secondary goal. My primary focus will be on getting people geared and ready for Firelands and the current tier of progression. Consider it an epeen goal!

Questions, comments, or concerns? Reply here or harass me in-game!

you should see if baltallis is available. ive seen him in guild and in trade looking for RBG and he has awesome tanking gear way better than clindrie's

[Irenke]

Todd is actually Matty's friend and someone that we invited to the guild from the Alliance. I've spoken with him in the past about joining our raid; I have a sneaky suspicion that he still has a regular raid.

[Jaktraw]

Sorry but I'm not going to be able to make the raid on the 30th, made some plans a while ago that I forgot about up until now.

[Irenke]

YOU HAVE FAILED ME FOR THE LAST TIME!

Enjoy your night off! I'll see if I can snag Vexal again; he's infinitely more awesome than we are, but might be willing to slum with us this weekend.


Edit: If you haven't done so already, please update your status on the calendar. I most likely won't be around this evening (going drinking with the coworkers), so I'll probably end up being ditzy and forget.

I'll be there is I am around for sure.

[Jaktraw]

Scratch that, I got out of it. I'll be around if you still need me.

[Vexal]

Oop. Nevermind then!

[Irenke]

I am confuzzled! Regardless, we'll have a spot for you if you show up or I'll pull in a DPS from the guild or from friends.
