Well, we picked up right where we left off the night before. By we I mean Regolas and I, the others were no help at all the night before. We cleared to Aran pretty quickly, they have those stupid magic immune mobs on the way. Stupid. Some folks thought we need to be in the room with Aran in doer to explain the fight. He didn't approve just as he began Flame Wreath Origami feral charged him, we died. This Shade of Aran does all sorts of crazy things to to kill you. He can't be tanked and uses hax to sheep trees and moonkins. The fight requires a lot of coordination and paying attention. Our first real attempt we got him to 43%. Blizzard was our problem, not the folks who decided not to make any raid balance gear until Mount Hyjal, the aoe spell. I know I had trouble getting out of it. I won't explain the the second attempt, I made movie what more do you want?
We moved onto Chess and we got purple colored prizes. Then Prince we got 2 shots at him before we called the aid because of time. Bad luck on infernals ftl. Mana problems led to failure in the first attempt due to battle rezzing. The second was over quickly when an infernal dropped behind Sameth and I when we were enfeebled. Which means we had 1 hp and can't be healed, which means you die if anything attacks you.
Another good run, I'm not sure what this means for old Heroes inc. We clearly can down anything in kara if we put the right group in and work at it. Doing that would mean less raiding or less successful raiding for those with gear that isn't so good. We are a casual guild (vague word). Some of our members don't enchant their gear, or socket it. They don't understand that this isn't Ubrs you can't just show up with any gear and be successful. If it was a big deal I wouldn't be in the guild, that's what the guild is and I know that. It seems hard to keep the under geared happy and the geared players from getting bored. Glad it's not my job:)

Big gratz on getting Aran down. You should do your quest from the book he drops, which will lead you to Heroic Shattered Halls and Heroic Sethkekk Halls. Finally, you will get an urn you can use the summon Nightbane. He's a very very hard boss, but has some nice loot.
"They don't understand that this isn't Ubrs you can't just show up with any gear and be successful."
In addition, they don't understand that it's not just themselves they are impacting. All the other players in the raid are affected by one person. Either the team can get the boss down or they can't, and that team is only as strong as its weakest link.

It's a very delicate balance to try to achieve. You risk losing the geared as they move on to more advanced guilds, or losing the undergeared as they feel they can't catch up.
Well, it took me a long time to catch up on blogs but nice blog Lakini. I like the way you phrase things - my favorite in this blog is "Blizzard was our problem, not the folks who decided not to make any raid balance gear until Mount Hyjal, the aoe spell."
LOL!
