Lemmings & Raiding before patch 3.1

AdminWilgje's picture

This week, we're still running Naxxramas with two raid groups, with a scheduled Eye of Eternity run this upcoming monday (march 23rd), and the week after, we want to try and clear Naxxramas in heroic mode by organising not one, but *two* 25-man runs (exact days will be announced).

The organisation of these runs comes from a desire to clear Eye of Eternity before 3.1 (according to a GM I talked to, we will have ample time for this), and have gotten the key for the Heroic version so we may go back to that after the patch. Smile But we would like to know: what are *your* goals before patchday?

Tell us your personal character wishes, as well as guild desires!

Would love to get big blue

Would love to get big blue down before patch 3.1 Laughing out loud
Other than that I will still enjoy all the normal Lemming fun and happily contribute to any raids I am able to attend, Kachi is pretty much done as far as the current content is concerned so if anyone needs help gearing their toons up and need dps just shout me Smile

Heaven Doesn't want me !
Hell's afraid I'll take over !

Oh oh

Patch newb here but is it that drastic we need to have goals? *goes to read up*

Anyway. My main goal is: FUN!!

I'll try to attent the 25 man raids as much as possible. So will Comb.
Would be awesome to clear it on HC.

Yes, it is that drastic - the pre-patch patch is 500mb, so.. Wink

Oh lol

Noticed a large patch but did not realise it was a lot of change for raiding and such. Going to read up a bit after dinner Wink.

Still my main goal remains fun.
But clearing Naxx HC with Lemmings is a great second goal.

Ermmmm well its not a

Ermmmm well its not a raiding goal / aspiration / dream but I would really really really (have I said really) love the Spirit Cat from Sholazar Basin. His name is Loque'Nahak and he is so pretty. But unfortunately he is the only tamable spirit cat in the game (until the new patch when there will be another one in ZD) and is camped by all BM hunters!! He spawns in 5 different locations around Sholazar every 10 hours or so.. so he is really really hard to get!!

So if any lemmings out there would offer any help to get this beautiful kitty then I would love the help - but I do understand that camping sholazar basin is the most boring and tedious task any lemming can ask Wink

Other than that I think we are doing an awesome job with our progression and personally would like to thank all the officers for making all the runs possible and fun Smile

personally, i think rather

floggy's picture

personally, i think rather then having 2 naxx 10 man groups it would be allot mroe fun to have a naxx 25 run instead, this way more ppl get to join, beter loot and do something that we havent done before so often. if for side kicks ppl want to run naxx 10 that could probably be aranged!
for myself i would really love to get naxx 25 cleared before all focus shifts to ulduar!

It would be nice to clear

Akaryxn's picture

It would be nice to clear Naxx-25.

However, those who started in Naxx-10 from our first few goes may be getting bored of it, but for others, there is still much to be seen. Speaking for myself, ignoring the Naxx-25 run we did, I've still only seen the first two wings once.


I intend to get Loreena up

Joe Snow's picture

I intend to get Loreena up to 80 and get her geared as a disc (healy) priest (also with a holy spec when dual specs arrive).

Once i've gotten the gear (and gotten used to healing!) I intend to raid with her instead of Joe.

What i expect when doing raids tho is just to have lots of fun, seeing the healy side of things Smile

I really think our 25 man runs are great and we should continue with them, but i'm not bothered how often we do them, once a week, once a month, as long as we do them sometimes im happy! Smile

rather than farming naxx up

matzy's picture

rather than farming naxx up to 3.1 I would prefer one of the following:-

(1) clearing naxx-25
(2) clearing EoE

You're in luck then, as I

AdminWilgje's picture

You're in luck then, as I announced those in the OP Wink

I don't think about

I don't think about patchday, really. And I don't prepare to it Wink I'm just trying to stay above 1k gold to play with dual specs around Wink When it comes to dual specs, I will try alternate tanking style / build as my secondary build. Later, when I choose my primary tanking build, I'll probably use some DPS build as secondary build.

If you ask about raids, I'm up for anything Wink I'm not bored with Naxx-10 yet and Naxx-25 is nice too (especially there's chance for nice weapon upgrade for me Wink). TBH I like Naxx way more than EoE. EoE is too much focused on group composition (everyone above 18k hp, everyone good dps to beat timer, DK preferred to grip sparks, etc.) and is not that fun as peaceful Naxx run Wink

So... patch doesn't change much for me Wink We'll just have fun in new instance Wink

I would also like to clear

I would also like to clear Naxx25man, and I also still enjoy the 10-man version. But I am also very excited about Ulduar Smile
Some people has also mentioned EoE, this will not be a big goal for me. For reasons that Coe has already mentioned.

Yeah like Coehoorn and

Yeah like Coehoorn and Saphira said. I still like Naxx. Would be cool to clear the HC version too. Not too bothered about EoE.
I prefer the instances were you come across more then 1 boss an evening and not just 1 boss which takes almost the entire evening to kill due to tactics.

So pre patch I have not got much goals. Not going for dual-specs.
With my hunter I don't see the point and with my shaman I just want to heal since for dps I got a hunter.

After patch still no real goals tbh. Have fun, keep my shaman up for raids, don't neglect hunter and try to raid more often. So basicly the same as always Wink.

I'm looking forward to the dual specs and not having to worry about respeccing when I want to solo.

My only goal before patch

My only goal before patch day is to build enough gold to afford dual specs. To do this i need to stop buying stuff i dont really need or spend hundreds of gold worth of mats on crafted gear... O wait i just bought something again. Nevermind!

Gar's Goals

Garalia's picture

Apart from getting back online before 3.1, what else.... Wink

My over-arching aim is to get loads more achievement points. In that aim I've broken down my goals as follows:

I'd like to get that last *@$!##&*! book for Higher Learning for one. I only need the book that spawns in the Violet Citadel in the bookcases to the right as you come in. So far, I've seen about a 6x Kirin Tor monthly issues, 3x Journals of Archmage Antonidius, etc... :s

I'm also looking for a large rat, about the size of a gnome. Last seen nibbling on fish in Dalaran's sewers. Seems to be wary of the bait I'm using - any gnomes volunteering for bait duty? Tongue

I'd love to get my Naxx achievements completed (just the boss kills, not the side achievements). That's both Naxx-10 and 25.

I'd also like to get my T7 tokens from there - but it's only loot, so not too worried about that side of it.

Hmm, what else?

Classic Raids and Dungeons - still need to finish a few of these off. ZG, BWL, AQ20 and AQ40 still need cleared.

Outland Heroics - still need most of these (especially since they're giving full rep again!).

Northrend Heroics - need quite a few of these as well. BUT, since my main playing times coincide with main raiding times, I tend to focus on other things first.

BUT - overriding all of those is my need to just log in, relax and have fun. Everything else is just details.

*hugs*

Gar

It would be really nice if i

It would be really nice if i could get Celenia "full purple" before patch (head and one trinket are rares) but i'm fine this way too. Smile Another personal goal with Celenia is stop slacking and continue my mount hunting before patch and new mounts are here. Luck just has so big part now so sometimes i'm more than ready to give up...

New challenges are fun so clearing naxx25 and beating Malygos (which could btw drop a mount... Tongue) are welcome of course. Smile

My own goal is to get the

AdminWilgje's picture

My own goal is to get the Chef title and level cooking to 450 Smile It's 444 right now, so only a few more points to go.

I also hope to get a nice bracer upgrade from Naxx, or this one from Ahn'Aket: awesome bracers I forgot the name of

If you want new bracers then

If you want new bracers then [Bracers of Dalaran's Parapets] bought for emblems of valor are BoE and can be bought for around 2000-2500g Wink

Yes, but 2k is a bit silly if you can just get a similar item for free & fun Smile

Safron's picture

I'd like to be online for more than an hour at a time...

Sent this as a PM to Wilgje

Spitbeard's picture

Sent this as a PM to Wilgje first Smile

My personal goals are:
-Getting the last two epic items (Boots & Bracers) for Spitbeard. Those can only be acquired from Naxx & EoE Heroic. Since those runs are usually scheduled mondays this poses a bit of a problem
- Getting Spitbeard 1000 gold for dual specs.
- Getting exalted with the Kalu'ak. They are the last faction which I'm not exalted with. Might not happen before patchday, because it takes a week to do so.
- Hoping to get's Thracites' JC level to maximum.
- Get Thracite to level 80. Don't think that's going to happen either, but I'll try. Seeing the shortage of dps lately, this triggered my return to levelling my first toon

Don't have any real guild desires. I like normal Naxx, OS & EoE. Wouldn't mind doing the heroic versions, but it's all good to me. I just wanna have fun with my guildies

I will continue joining all

Thondar's picture

I will continue joining all of the current raids as i still enjoy them very much.

I would love to do a MH run though, it's still one of my all time favorites and i would love to clear it Smile

Another objective of mine is dual box my druid and shaman to level 80 and spec one of them for healing and the other one for DPS, but this isn't a hard i need to get this done before the patch objective.

OK, so summarising some comments:

- Kachiko would like to down Malygos.
- Anharyd would like to tame Loque'Nahak
- Joe wants his priest geared up to 80, and change raiding mains
- Elm, Spitbeard and Coehoorn want to have 1000k for the dual spec
- Garalia (if he's back online) wants to complete some achievements - some we can't help with, but classic raids/dungeons, outland heroics, northrend heroics should be possible to organise with the guild
- Celenia wants some more mounts (not sure which you don't have yet? Smile )
- Wilgje wants to get her chef title and needs to get off her butt and do dailies. Could use help in the form of loads of chilled meat. ;p
- Spitbeard would like some boots/bracers from Naxx/EoE heroic. EoE heroic is out of the question still Wink But who knows, this wednesday/friday? He would also like to level jewelcrafting to maximum.

People don't seem that invested in EoE, but want to clear Naxx-25 before Ulduar. So let's make that happen this week guys! Smile Put your best foot forward and we can scratch that off our list.
EoE seems so far a tough nut to crack, and personally I think it poses some difficulty along with our Naxx (gear level) invite list and our rotating. I think we can do it, but we'll all need to polish up our armor as much as we can Smile

As for helping people get their wishes (at least the ones other can help with)... I will collect jewelcrafting tokens and train the epic spellpower necklace recipe, so Joe can get it for his priest. I can loan some people some gold if needed. We can organise a 'week off' regular raiding to do classic raids/instances (Celenia can join the ones she needs mounts from). And Spitbeard can link me his jewelcrafting ingame so I can place an order for cutting so he levels and I continue getting rich Wink

Yes we can!

I fully agree with you here, Wilgje, EoE is just old-skool, we actually have to do our utmost best to down him. But I'm convinced we can do it.

On the penultimate try yesterday we managed to do phase 1 fast enough, but we then took too much time on phase 2. We just need more experience with this fight, and combined with some improvements in gear, we will be downing Malygos soon.

Also, EoE-25 is much easier than EoE-10, and hopefully we'll be able to have a try at that one as well.

Lol

missing mounts

Link for mounts I miss

As you might see, there's not much where you can help. I'm still missing few easier ones (two pvp mounts that can be bought with tokens) which i will get when i just stop slacking. Halaa pvp mounts would be quite ok to farm if there just would be hordes there (if someone has lvl 75+ horde in Aszune, i would love to get some help here!). I would get red proto drake if i could get all heroic achivements done, so if there's two dps (pretty good gear would help a lot and in few achievements it would be good if one could taunt & tank a sec and other heal too) who wanna get some challenge and achieve red proto drake with Glendus, i and Gramno, just let me know. Smile After that it's mostly rare drops i'm missing and it's not easy to help with those.

100 mounts is pretty insane achievement at the moment... Laughing out loud

Cele You'll find that quite

You'll find that quite a few others are tryinig to get the heroic achievements done too (so there should be plenty of groups on the go to join in with), I know Garalia will want to finish them (might mean a respec for one of you there though).

And here is my pathetic list of mounts Laughing out loud

I know that ppl are doing some heroic achievements here and there. But it would be really nice if we could find two ppl that wanna do all those with us so that everyone of group would get that drake same time. Smile

Great Maitia, you are more than welcome to try to get those done with us Laughing out loud

Well, a Lemmings squad should be able to round him up Wink

Kachiko's picture

I usually do a circuit of SB at least a couple of times over the weekend so happy to help out (Of course thats kind of a given Wink )

Heaven Doesn't want me !
Hell's afraid I'll take over !

I often do rounds of SB

I often do rounds of SB mining saronite. Problem is this will often be late at night or early in the morning when there are hardly anyone on. How can we be of any help if you are not online? Smile

And what gems to Spitbeard need? If it is green quality ones i might have some spares.

Heroic achievements i am very insterested in with Elminda as dps.

And a update for my goals before next patch. As there are some changes being done to fury warriors i am working on changing around Elmindas gear now. As the berserker stance bonus looks like it is being changed from 10% attackpower to 15% strength i want to replace as much gear as possible that got attackpower on them with strength items. At the moment this means Bracers, Boots, Gloves and a weapon. Gloves i have new ones, just need gems and enchants. Boots i will have replaced as soon as i get my Ebon blade rep to exalted either by instances or dailies. Bracers i am saving for now and might be able to replace soon so this leaves me with just the weapon. To avoid gimping my crit too much i will try to get heroic HoL done for the axe from Loken if anyone is interested. Wink
There is also trinket i could replace.. but at 8k gold this is a little too much for me for a bunch of cards! Laughing out loud

Hey Elm,

If you could just keep a look out that would be great, and if I am not on line at least then I would have an idea then of spawn time and where he spawned on that instance Smile

I would just be dead jealous if you saw him any time but many eyes make light work - so to speak Smile

Thanks anyways Smile

Thanks all for the gems I've gotten so far Smile Haven't been online this weekend, so I don't know if I've gotten more gems in my mailbox. From the top of my head I needed Star Rubies & Azerothian Diamonds. I think I don't need those anymore. I'll be on a short while when I come home from work to see if anymore is waiting in my mailbox Wink

According to a few jewelcrafting guides I need Blue Sapphires and Essence of Undeath. I'm going to mine Thorium Ore to prospect the sapphires and kill the undead in Eastern Plaguelands for the essences.
