Re: Official Mal'Ganis ThreadI can't even get my tanking gear set let alone off spec set.
I have no desire to get a real offspec ready when the thought of rolling on offspec loot and having to hear people bitch and moan "I've been dps for x months and I never got it". If they haven't gotten it, you think I'm going to get it for OS? hah :P |

It's easy to carry people (see Veritek's pally @ ~3000gs coming through our ToC25 and winning like 2-3 pieces of loot + a trophy). Also, would it be more viable to go kitty dps? |

not me, would rather cut my arm off or lose my router in the sink than to go off spec and let the lesser geared tank (or lesser quality for that matter) tank instead of me. I don't trust many tanks.. if they aren't going to be top notch, they should be getting offspecs, not me.
I have a decent boomkin set, and would like to get that up, but I still have hauntings call for god sakes, while people int he raid take weapons just to have them cause they look nice or add them to their collection *cough*... so why work twice as hard to maintain another set when chances of me getting one viable enough to do more than 3k dps isn't going to happen? |

*cough* the downfall of free roll, the upside of LC offspecs, we have our feral druid who has a full tank and DPS set. Our warrior is getting geared just as well. Our prot pally also has a full holy set. Talk about a great combo. Looks like you need to have guildies rolling for you and then hand you over some loot |

Then we better not be taking any tanks (*cough*bertus*cough*) that can't go DPS when needed. |

+1
If I were to choose 1 tank between the three(or 4) we have available in guild, it would be Ant, even though I know how good I am. Simply put, of all the tanks in the guild, she puts out the most dps, and she is really good.
Simply put, it's better to have a tank go OS and do 5k dps with a 3-4k dps tank, than it is to have a tank go OS and do 5k dps, with a tank that does 2-2.5k dps. |

said by Krisnatharok:Then we better not be taking any tanks (*cough*bertus*cough*) that can't go DPS when needed. So in your words, I shouldn't be going cause I don't have an offspec being a tank as well. Might wanna start thinking about what you are "suggesting" we do with our raid. |

I'm not even thinking that. The tank that can survive the fight is the one we want staying tank. The lesser-geared tank (with less EH/TTL or knowledge of CDs, lol) needs to be able to switch over to DPS and do ~5k. |

IIRC, "we" as a raid told bertus (I specifically remember Ant and Arch) to work on his dps set, asap. |

Follow these rules...
1) Holy pallies are not allowed ret gear LOL 2) Our Main Tank (Warrior) is well, our main tank and guess what- he will be tanking every boss regardless =P 3) Even if it is "Free rolls" if a guildy needs it a lot more than you, pass it to them. That will help your raid out more than the small upgrade "you" got. |

said by Exodus:I think he was. Well, I was joking on vent about getting a "collection", because I'm always asked to swap specs, and I dropped a buttload of gold in a pug on a situation-dictates type of weapon. But I had a MH drop last night I intended to keep with BM on it for destro as our shaman is always hard on mana w/o Replenishment, and then had an upgrade to my staff drop as well off Fester/Rot (whichever it was). Unfortunately, I ported out halfway through the instance to go Destro which means I enchanted the MH w/BM for Saurfang so it was already bound to me. No one knows when something is going to drop, so you don't exactly pass on something planning to see a better piece of loot drop AND win it. But you can count on me not rolling on any caster weapons that drop from here on out. Shit just turns out that I now have 3 weapon sets I rotate based on fight and spec. Antonica: I am saving for the caster legs (Leggings of Woven Death I think? Pretty hot - sp/crit/haste w/3 sockets). Progress: 3/8 saronites |
