Hi, I have been using this site for a while and just now took the time to register. You may know me as the level 1 twink Kikoman from youtube (go ahead, flame on about how bad I am). Anyway, I've come to you guys to get some opinions on level 1 raiding next patch, if this needs to be in the PTR forum please move it.
Here are my current goals for level 1 raiding next patch:
-10 man hogger
-5 man hogger
-3 man hogger
-25-40 man Fozruk (probably way to high of level to even attempt, but something along these lines). This would actually be really epic if achieved, this is one of the closest things to a boss encounter because of the kobold's unique abilities.
Here are the major problems I for see:
-Tanking: How is aggro going to be held? My twink is a warrior, and I will have full rage at all times from high level mobs, will heroic strike spam be enough? Sharpened Scarlet Kris [+5 weapon damage]
-Hitting: Judging by killing level 8-9 boars on PTR almost no white damage will hit (and if it does it hits for 1 damage), however yellow damage seems to hit for a normal amount and most of the time.
-Viable DPS classes: I imagine rogues will be one of the only, considering they have 2 yellow attacks. I am concerned they will pull aggro and we will end up with a rogue tank anyway. At first I thought hunters would be awesome with Feathered Arrow but I then realized all of there ranged damage is whites.
-Healers: I'm assuming we will need more healers than anything, the tank is going to be taking a lot of damage, but hopefully not enough to get 2/3 hit. I'm not sure what the best healers will be, but at least 1 priest and druid for buffs.
I'm not concerned about level 40+ one shotting the mobs, if that happens we will just wait for them to leave.
So what I am asking for you guys is what you think the resolutions will be for the major problems?
Would 4 other people be willing to make (or copy) their twinks to the PTR so we can test out a hogger raid?
Thanks for any assistance.
