I agree with it. This is why I am thinking about not raiding with Unemployed anymore... to me its always seemed like the raid belonged to certain people, and then the rest of us just got to tag along and get leftovers since took our time leveling and have priorities outside of WoW. And then the situation on Friday with the Malygos run... that just pissed me off. Reading "Need ten of the best geared to do this" on the forums is a load of crap... why only the best geared? Sure, best gear equals best chance of killing something, but where the hell is the fun? -- Sorry about my rant... Sorry to hear WoW and raiding isn't as fun for you as it was. Hope it gets better for ya. Good luck! About your comments on your guild’s raiding… I agree with it.

Sorry to hear WoW and raiding isn’t as fun for you as it was. Hope it gets better for ya. Good luck!

For some reason everyone seems to think DPS is the measure of elite, and that only epics qualify. While I never got far in the BC progressions as my guild had just began raiding last summer, many of us entered Kara in a mix of blues and greens with a sprinkle of epics. I can honestly say we never wiped due to poor gear. We wiped because we made mistakes. From everything I heard and read about the new raids, I feel that a good group would be fine in greens and a smattering of blues. I've even read where guilds entered these raids in just that. But I agree, too easy is almost worse than too hard. While I’m not there yet, I think the changes Blizz has put into place has only made a certain situation worse.
