This is mainly to bump Guns post but also to bring light to a subject which I think we may be Lax on.
Progression. Flat out this is going slow as fuck. People dropping to respec, people needing shit mid raid, and the excuses go on and on. Be prepared. Not a single man-jackmotherfucker in this raid group is under teh age of 18. Don't make me start playing Daddy to get you ready before raid. I will do it. But you won't like it. We need to come together under a single united front to kick this server in its teeth and teach them their place under our Iron feet. Rise up. Do what you know will help you succeed, and if you can't figure out what that is ask for help. We rise and fall together.
Onward, and upward!
I agree. People just need to step up and be ready to progress on raid nights. There is no reason we should be progressing to 40% on a fight, only to regress the rest of the night and never get past 60% again. If you were JUST able to do it, what is stopping you the next few attempts? If you improve on EXACTLY what you just did the pull before, there should only be improvement, not regression. It is as if people reach a new best and have a stroke for the first half of the fight and assume everything will go okay until we get to that new record and then they will just turn their brains on and start playing again. You have to be playing at your best every second of every pull on every night. If you die to something stupid, don't make excuses. Don't blame someone else. Take responsibility and make sure it doesn't happen again. There are far too many attempts on not only Brackenspore, but Twins as well where we have MULTIPLE people dead within the first minute of the fight. Once you have seen this portion of the fight 10+ times, this should NOT be happening. For example, dying to the first wave on Brackenspore. It is a giant wave of water with a few gaps in between guys. It comes from the same place EVERY time. It is not hidden. It is no secret. DBM tells you when it's about to happen so you know to be looking for it!
As a progression guild, people need to step up and start playing their best. Several people are still under performing, but amazingly we still are the best guild on the server. If everyone played at the level I know we are CAPABLE of playing at, we would be light years ahead of everyone else. We should not need people like the officers pushing you along and begging you to stop doing dumb shit, DPS harder, heal harder. You should already be doing this given you are in a MYTHIC progression guild. But still, every week it is the same people under performing, wasting time during raids, arguing with one another about the stupidest crap, and talking about bullshit DURING an encounter. If you want to jerk each other off during raids, do it during trash and during the break. Starting a conversation with someone when there is 3 seconds left on the pull timer is NOT the appropriate time.
Be prepared and ready for raids at 8:30. We don't have time to wait for you to go to town, get potions, get flasks. Come to raids ready to progress. We have 5 bosses to kill before BRF comes out. That means get on your game and play your asses off. If we are a TRUE mythic progression guild and we start acting the part, we should have 2 NEW mythic bosses down this week. Get your heads out of your asses and stop wasting the time of people who are ready to move on to new content.
