Hi all - trying for a kara run tonight around 7:30 PST. If there's critical mass we'll see what we can get done.

My kingdom for another warrior, lol. Well, we were at 9 last night and lacking a second tank so just a run through the basement, pretty clean. The worst part was not having a tank when the plate Glider's Greaves of the Champion dropped:
+26 Strength, +39 Stamina, +26 Defense Rating
Well, more void crystals lol...

I think the helm slim got made him more stupid . I think it would be wise to let some of the people that are needed for kara and saved already to get an ingame mail with a reminder.

Problem with alerting people ahead of time is that half the Kara group we run with is from another guild, since we don't often get near enough from our guild. As such, we don't usually know when we will run, we log in, do a /who I need, /who fiery, and send tells to see if we get enough.
The way it goes right now, they tend to bring the same 5 each time (Resto druid, hunter, lock, mage, holy pally).
We bring both tanks, 2 DPS, one healer.
Our usual group from our side is often Ferrion, Slim, Used, Ejp, and me. If someone can't make it though, we often have to replace that person with the same archetype (tank for tank, etc.)

The reason you don't get enough is because you start too late. A lot of us are in Central/Eastern time zone and 930/1000 start time is pretty late especially on work days.
If y'all could run weekends instead of weekdays I'm sure you would get more guildies to go because we have more that are attuned but cannot make the late time (i.e. Lemmon and Taubryn).

Yeah, it's the typical problem, half are West coast, half are East. From the West coast side, Ferr, Used, Arethas, Kild, and I are all still at work when you guys would be ready to start Kara.

Yeah, I don't have a good answer for the start time issue. The earlier raid times (6:30 PST) works out rough for us on the west coast but the 7:30/8 start time PST is hard for the East coasters. The one good thing is that more people are learning the encounters, etc. so if people are interested in having alternate times, running multiple groups, etc., that might work out well too.

Denul and I are both willing to give Kara a try again, despite horrible experiences in the past. But the fact that we have kids, and that he works most mornings (currently Mondays and Wednesdays off) means that we can't commit to something that starts so late at night (for us) on most nights, the Sundays/Tuesdays aside.

Would like to take eleria on a run, since she does have the key. Tree still needs the black morass run to finish the kara key. Since I am East Coast, it is easier for me to go earlier than 7:30 pst since that is like 9:30pm or 10:30pm for me.

Well the first time we went as a guild to kara it was a pretty horrible night. Since then though Ferrion has led a great group and has fined tuned is leading skills in kara. I am sure if you guys can get on to run with them then you won't be dissapointed. I am like you guys thats why I don't go much. I need to get up at 6 in the morning and I live in the central time zone or same time as the server. I am just glad that people are getting to experiance it that want to. Most likey when the New dungeon comes out we will have two time runs going on one in the early evening and one in the later evening.

Den's looking at a potential promotion in the near future. If he gets that, he may be able to change his days off somewhat, or even work long days to have three days off...in which case availability may chance somewhat for us. Until we see what's up with that I'm going to continue checking the forum and Group Calendar in-game (just in case) to see if anything planned comes up that we can go to.

I got another new promtion today as our new hire copier tech left after 2 days I am now the Copier/Camera surviellance tech. Long story short is I gave up the copier spot four years ago to a new hire but he retired couple months ago. I got back into it and hired a new guy at the beginning of the month. He left but oh well its all good.
