Mag Saturday 06/07 signup (7:30 PM PDT)
We're getting our first Penguin-Myth 25 person raid together on Saturday, June 7th. Not this Saturday, but the following Saturday.
Post here if you: 1) are signing up, hurrah!, 2) know you can't go, boo!, or 3) think you wanna go but are kinda sorta not sure if you can make it. Also make a note if you think you might be late.
Also, try to sign up on the Myth RaidNinja (http://www.guildmyth.com/raiding/index.php). This will help the organizers get a better idea of who we have available overall.
Read about the boss fight:

Boss fight videos:
These get repetitive, one or two gives a good scope the fight.
Caster DPS PoV (clicker)
Melee DPS PoV
Hunter PoV (clicker)
Off-Tank PoV (clicker)
MT Healing PoV
edit: We had a bit of miscommunication, so we did Gruul instead of Mag.
Welcome New Users
Hi, you're seeing this because you are a non-logged in user. If you are a member of our guild, please create an account. We ask that you keep your login name to the same character name as your main, as it makes knowing who you are easier.
I'll check periodically to see if you've created an account. Please check back within 24 hours (or Monday afternoon if you've signed up during the weekend)
I probably won't make it
I forgot that I'm going to a music festival that day. The venue is just up the road from my apartment, but the stage acts play till 8:30pm (and maybe later).
I'll try to give a mental walkthrough for Magtheridon, and maybe Gruul. The trash for either instance isn't too bad, as long as you have 3.5 tanks around.

Arr... care for a pint?
with Bells
Definately can make this /sign G up...
Of course I feel artarded but I know nothing about this fight so I'll be doing my research ahead of time. If there's any prerequs or quests lines I should work on ahead of time could someone let me know before I get to deep into research to find out I can't go :0)
No pre-requisites for any of the 25 man raids
There are no longer any keying requirements for the BC raids (except for Karazhan, go figure).
Magtheridon's a pretty simple fight. And the trash aren't bad. As a rogue, I would make sure that I have kick hot-keyed somewhere, since you'll be needing to interrupt the AoE shadowbolts and heals that the trash will try to cast.
The strategy guide at Bosskillers.com seems to work in raids that I've been in:
http://www.bosskillers.com/cgi-bin/bbguild/index.cgi?action=view_guide&guide_id=45
The only differences now are that only 2 Infernals will be summoned at any given time, and you can have one dedicated clicker per cube (with someone around for backup clicking, of course).
Pre-Mags quests
While there is no prereq for Mags, he is the last boss to kill in the Tempest Keep keying quest line. Even though TK no longer requires keying, there is a nice FR ring as a quest reward and that quest line is half of the requirement for the 'Champion of the Naaru' title.
Info is here: http://www.wowwiki.com/Quest:The_Tempest_Key
Full Guide
Thanks, Fossa. I think I left off somewhere in the middle of the Hand of Gul'dan quest line, not realizing it was particularly significant, so I should finish that up.
I also found a full guide to the TK keying here.

Home Improvement Peng
Hey Pengs
Sadly, I will likely be out of action for the next few weekend missions. Brotherly duty calls: helping my brother redo his floors at his new apartment. Since the noise is substantial, we basically can only work on it during Saturday/Sunday daylight hours (damn you full time jobs!!!). At this rate, we should be done sometime in 2025. Wish we had some gnome engineers around to speed up the process...

MIA for a week
Hey folks.. Just wanted to say I had an awesome time last night. Can't wait til we hit up Mag!! Wooters... will be fun.
Next weekend I won't be around for any runs, but I'll be missin' you guys. I've got a friend comming in from Florida so I'll be adventuring here around the Left Coast. HAVE FUN PP's
First Gruul Run
First time in Gruul 24-manning it, with a win! We just need to learn to do it quicker and with finesse. :)
I was noticing some trouble with placement. A lot of it seems to be a matter of learning to stagger, like on Ragaros or even Onyxia. There were also some problems with assigning the groups to certain areas in the ring, since we had a lot of "orphans" not sticking with their assigned area.
I'd say 70% of the time I was trying to find a clear place to stand, and maybe 30% spent on healing. On the minus side, I was being kinda useless a large portion of the time. On the plus side, that means we can probably do without so many healers, which means more dps ftw!
