Hmm, couple things I guess. 1) It sounds like it's your first raid, and you got 2 epic pieces; can't really be mad at that. 2) Losing the sword sucks but I assume the person that got it has been raiding for awhile, and how do you think they'd feel if a brand new raider got it over them? Also it's probably more important to give gear to people who are progressing in BWL, when you can't do it. 3) It sounds like your loot system is a little sloppy and kind of a mess. What are you using? Sounds like LC because you got a piece off the bat, but then people are just doing /roll for items so sounds like ms+1 or w/e. This is why a system like dkp/epgp are better (LC is good just potentially highly suspect).
We only were able to down Razorgore tonight, took like 2 hours (had a really good 3rd pull but our MCer DC'd with like 10 eggs left and screwed it up) and couldn't kill Vael. Overall not bad, thankfully we do 2 BWL nights a week, so hopefully we can down up to Broodlord next time.
We only got Razorgore down as well. We got Vaelastrasz down to 2% on the last attempt of the night when we were out of consumes and a couple people had to drop so we'll get him next time for sure. It was great because our first attempt was like an instant wipe and we just inched up from there. Shifted our tank order, changed our healing assignments, popped the right cooldowns, and got further and further every time. We could've used a couple more healers I think just to keep everyone alive. He only at like 18k health left but that Fire Nova just eats away at people without fire resist or greater fire protection potions.
One thing I noticed is that he has turned towards the raid when threat was solidly with the tank. Is that part of casting Burning Adrenaline? Can the raid be flame breathed or cleaved from that? I just wanna get in there and try again but we're doing MC tonight. It will be a nice morale boost to blow through MC again. Might get some Limited Invulnerability potions to manage threat as well cause I did pull it and I think I tail whipped the OTs. Didn't wipe the raid with a cleave or fire breath but I died from his melee so we were missing that big execute damage. I might have been able to push us over the edge if I was still alive.
I'll have to live with the regret for the rest of my days.
