Our group as mentioned before:

1 Worrior (tank)
1 Priest (healing – with a pvp spec)
1 Mage (sheep)
1 Hunter (trap)
1 Rogue (me, pvp spec, arena gear)

We wiped a total of four times. One time at the second boss, because we did not kill the adds quick enough. Another wipe at the second boss, because we pulled him while still fighting another group… And two more wipes at the last boss. Our priest thought it would be funny to fly into the bubbles, i.e. not funny! We never wiped on any of the trash groups. Our strategy was always to sap one, sheep one and trap a third one. Our tank took two and I killed the imp and the succubus. Once these two were dead the main target was already down and the sap came. Still only two at the same time. Overall very easy to manage. However, I am not so sure anymore, if our gear is as bad as I thought. The season three stuff must be really competitive…

Good luck to all and good luck to us, as we will try to get through the heroic one on Wednesday…

We wiped a few times on the 6 pack but finally beat them and wiped on Kael once. Man, watch for those bubbles. lol.

The 6 pack had me worried for a bit. Thank god for swipe, roar and good guildies.

Last wipe was on the 6-man pull, but at least we only wiped once there. All bosses went down pretty easy the first time. We had very good DPS, and the other guys knew the instance well. The Cc we had was perfect. Sheep, enslave succbus and charm and finally MC. We actually had too much CC at some mobs, were I had to targets, 3 were Cc’ed and the last one was killed almost instantly.

But true, as a tank, the place sucketh big time. The bosses are easy, as you only have one goal as a tank, the DPS classes are doing all the work. The trash is tough as it’s very tightly packed, and because you are using LOS all the time, your TABbing finger needs to be fast…Other than that it’s fast and pretty in there. I’d call it mini-Kara.

Will surely go there soon again, at least for the epic pants and the epic cloak. Got the
blue kitty pants from Fireheart, but not as good as the Skystalker’s Leggings of the Beast http://www.wowhead.com/?item=31564.

Anyway, we might try it again tonight. The AOE squishes my succubus every time, meaning the seduce is useless as CC in the hallway. So I think the way to try it (if we get that far again) is to pull the group out into the courtyard where you face Boss #3.

Man this makes me feel better,

I am a kinda new decently geared feral tank, and man that last pull raped me. First time i did it we had to shammies..double fire ele ftw.

2nd group was

Druid tank
Priest healer
Rouge-sap
Mage sheep
Shammy-untankable damage spikes (though he kinda pwned)

we wiped allot on the way there mostly because i didn’t know where not to step and aggro to much. W/e that’s practice but that last pull..wow.

I just couldn’t keep aggro. At all. If you ever can get a recomended group and a cc order it would be amazing!

thanks =)

Hoot–prot war
dragonsbane-hunter
rosalie-hunter
coralblue-holy priest
and me–balance druid

happens that we had some problens whit the mana things there and wipe twice but we talked about pull them to the hall and took down everything just before the doors in first boss close leaving drag and rosalie outside well that was time for a starfire and DoT marathon. and we got it down fast that was our only problem right ther in this group

second time there

bornah–prot war
blackthom-holy priest
pandoracats-hunter
thuggos-mage
again me- balance druid

this time whit a little more exp we manage to get to kael whit no problems then our healer died follow by hunter mage and war. he was at 23% and then again marathon or DoTs and starfire whit a couple of moonfire everytime to keep the DoT coming and that was so far our problem thanks god my rez was 1 min CD and we finish the run whit a score of just 1 death of each player ( i died on the priestess pull)

Anyway, as said before we do an instance run once a week. Thanks to PvP our equipment is good enough for most of them on heroic. Two weeks ago we wanted to see how good we really are and decided to go into Arcatraz on heroic.
Our group was:
1 tank (epic equipment)
1 healer (epic equipment)
1 mage (decent equipment)
1 hunter (average equipment, most PvP)
1 rogue (pvp gear (epic) and elemental leatherworking set)
This group has quite good cc, but only one healer. Most of the guides said that a group without a second healer shouldn’t even try to encounter the first boss. But we tried anyway and after one wipe we got him fairly easy. For the rest of the trash and bosses, we wiped maybe three times, but at the end we managed everything fairly easy.

So, why am I writing this? Just to show that you don’t need uber equipment to be successful in this game. Our biggest advantage is probably team speak. If you are really clicking as a team, you make up much ground on bad gear.

I am really looking forward to our first run on MT. We will probably fail without a warlock, but it will be fun.

I hate that I couldn’t taunt in there as a tank, seemed like the healer kept getting more aggro than I could output. Felt like I was better off in cat form than bear.

You’ll get it tho, been doin’ it nitely with a similarly set up group, me feral druid tank, 2 rogues, 1 lock, 1 priest. Lock would banish the demon if he was there, rogues would solo the main target, and i’d do w/e i could to keep whatever was left off the healer. It’s chaos for sure. GL with that, just wait til you see the last pull before Kael :p.

3rd boss was fricking fun! Two brez’s / innervates / mana pots. We thought we were screwed when Priest + Mage quickly went down leaving hunter + druids, but as the hunter kited and we (druids) alternately healed each other. The new NI talent rocks 900 healing in my dps gear when I do a weapons swap.

The 6 pull before Kael… I just OT’ed 2 of them.
