Atiesh priority list?

This seems like a rhetorical question.

The Guildmaster’s girlfriend, of course.

Legendary bow wasn’t till sunwell in TBC. If you mean the epic bow from mc, it was replaced in bwl by a crossbow

history disagree with you… on wow and on Pservers.

interest in raiding drop off dramatically once the end boss has been defeated… especially if you defeat him multiple time and get it down to a 2 hour long weekly clear…

and not just on WoW, on just about every MMO i’Ve played.

If you never raided / got BIS before you might think it’s fun to have a full guild of naxx-geared people rolfstomping bosses day in, day out… but after you’Ve done it, and you’re disenchanting nearly everything / gearing up people 3rd alt… it get really boring, really quick. getting full BIS means absolutely nothing, since you already killed everything there is to be killed… congrats, you might kill patchwerk 5 second faster than you did the previous time with your new gear… that’s it. nothing more.

so yeah, as i’ve said, the roster boss will be by far your biggest challenge after killing KT… which will likely be the week naxx comes out.

Because throughout WoW’s history, there’s always been something new on the horizon.

In the case of retail, there’s always the next patch, or the next expansion. These days, especially in BfA, ALL the gear you got from the highest level content is immediately replaced by garbage from world quests or dungeons (in the case of the latter, usually replacing items with a higher item level version of the same thing).

In the case of private servers, people aren’t nearly as dedicated to fully gearing because their work won’t last. Private servers have a tendency to get shut down for one reason or another. It’s one of the big reasons I want Classic, actually, and I know I’m not alone in that.

Good luck reaching that point when you’ve got 40 people to gear with only 2-3 items dropping per boss, most of which aren’t all that good in the first place.

There’s a lot of longevity in vanilla/Classic’s game design.

I think it’s pretty naive to expect people wouldn’t want to keep playing and gearing up their character just because the killed the last boss. Now maybe they won’t want to keep playing once they are fully geared, sure, but until then, I don’t think a lot of people (save for the world first race types) are going to be satisfied with clearing the content.

They want some way to signify their accomplishments, and gear is the only way to do that in vanilla.

Over Atiesh? Not a chance.

Atiesh: 28 Intellect, 28 Stamina, 27 Spirit, +300 (+62 Group Aura) Healing.
Benediction: 31 Intellect, 10 Stamina, 12 Spirit, 2% Crit, +106 Healing.

Atiesh is vastly superior. 2% Crit and 3 Intellect doesn’t even come close 256 more +Healing.

Even Shadow Priests would take Atiesh over Anathema.

Atiesh: 28 Intellect, 28 Stamina, 27 Spirit, 120 spell power.
Anathema: 31 Intellect, 22 Stamina, 7 Mp5, 69 spell power.

The atiesh staff goes to the destiny child.
If you give it to anyone who doesn’t fit the profile as the destiny child, you will doom everyone.

the drop in participate between tier isn’t nearly as bad as the end of expac.

by the next heroic raid ( if you were raiding mythic). to be more accurate.

In the case of private servers, people aren’t nearly as dedicated to fully gearing because their work won’t last.

and in the case of classic , we just have a server that’s bound to die since you completed all the content there is to be done.

Good luck reaching that point when you’ve got 40 people to gear with only 2-3 items dropping per boss, most of which aren’t all that good in the first place.

which doesn’t matter in the least, since more gear just means you’ll kill what you’ve previously killed before few second faster.

I think it’s pretty naive to expect people wouldn’t want to keep playing and gearing up their character just because the killed the last boss

yet this is what they do in oh so many games. Unless this is your first time achieving farm-status, you know there’s nothing beyond it… all you can hope is for classic +, TBC release , or a new classic server… but in every case, re-killing KT get boring really quick.

This is the part that tells me you’Ve never been in a successfull raiding guild before… it’s not about the items, it’s about the challenge of the raid… items just make you do bigger numbers on a target with more hp.

Now maybe they won’t want to keep playing once they are fully geared,

so all that text… and yet the only difference between your prediction and mine, is a few more clear…

My suggestion for anyone who wants a legendary in Classic is to become a guild leader or raid leader so that you are the one that makes those decisions, or become an officer in a guild or such an invaluable member of your raid group that other people all want you to be the one that gets it.

In vanilla when I first started playing I ran a guild and when we started raiding I decided who got Sulfuras and everyone was fine with it because he was a founding officer of the guild and a great guy. Thunderfury would have gone to my raid leader who was also main tank but sadly the bindings never dropped for us (probably for the best though because he was disliked by a group of other officers and maybe it would have caused strife). Atiesh wasn’t an issue because we weren’t hard core enough to clear Naxx before BC.

When I left that guild for another server and became healing officer for my raid group we were fortunately never forced to choose who would get the Warglaives because they never dropped for us. Our Rogue officer pretty much thought they were going to him but I know that a few other people wanted it as well. The Legendary bow wasn’t an issue because we only cleared Sunwell a few times before Wrath. And one of the reasons that got me to quit WoW during WotLK was when info about the healing mace was released. I didn’t want to be the one to have to figure out which healer deserved it most. Too much stress in my life at that point.

So if you are not a guild leader, raid leader, or make huge contributions of time and energy to your raid group don’t expect to be considered.

Give it to an Alt so they can have a good start on taking all the guilds Alts through the content again.

There’s nothing new after that point, so why not give it to a few Alts who could really use it while clearing lower content?

It makes the most sense, logically. That’s said officers and leaders will be the ones who get first, as a trophy for having the end of the game on farm.

GM>> GM’s girlfriend if you get more than 2 the third will go to officers.

Because the degree to which your gear is invalidated is far greater. That won’t happen in Classic because there is nothing coming to it after Naxx.

That means that significant drop in participation isn’t going to happen. People won’t consider it a waste of time to clear the raid at the end of the expansion (or lack thereof) because their work isn’t going to be invalidated by new content.

No, I mean world quests or dungeons. I’d know, because it happened to this character. It’s especially bad for Azerite gear, since they added extra rings to the new gear, but not the old gear.

Raiding isn’t the primary source of gear anymore. This isn’t

Oh, you’re one of those types. I see.

Which is just fine for a lot of people. Many people want to improve themselves as much as possible. Clearing things as quickly as possible becomes a challenge in and of itself.

Eh, speak for yourself.

Whatever helps you sleep at night, bud.

A successful guild doesn’t stop raiding after they’ve killed the final boss of a raid tier. The whole concept of “on farm” wouldn’t exist if that were the case.

Yeah, because you’ll fully gear 40+ people in full BiS in “a few more clears.”

You’re right, they’ll just stop playing all together.

Mage first then priest is what I remember doing. As for which mage… Probably the officer or GM one lol.

Im an officer in a loot council system. I made sure every rogue got loot before I did. If you’re in a LC guild and its atiesh time then you’ve had ample time to figure out if the officers are corrupt or not. And if the officer is deserving then they should get it.

MCP is still more dps when using the charges. :yum:

you don’t seem to be able to focus on anything but loot. This seems to be a big problem for you.

If they have an atiesh they’ve beat the game so idk why you think you are able to join a guild above that

How many raiders do you need for a mythic raid?

No one’s going to farm MCP for anything but progression raiding

10 chars…
