To be fair, the Infernal Council thing is not a bug.....if it heals or helps anyone else in the op in any way, it's gonna cause that. This is not a bug. Simply don't use that ability. The fight is very easy, even without it. The biggest issue I have had is the tank getting mind trapped right at the beginning of the 30% to 0% phase and us missing the first shield break due to that. It happened 3 times last night, with us finally killing even even through the 3rd time. The final bug on that run was the fact that AFTER Soa was dead, we were still stuck in combat and unable to res dead ppl.

No, they expect people to be able to realize they should pass on loot they cannot personally use. Why would the marauder not have auto passed on an item that was for Imperial Agents.......that is what I want to know out of all of this. I mean I can understand if you have two agents you are trying to decide between, but the marauder should have auto passed anyway, since he cannot use the loot. That whole thing is what baffles me. You don't think it is odd that the marauder didn't just auto pass on the Agent piece?

Sigh....the very first time I ever did this instance, the tank who had never been in there managed to do it just fine without getting knocked off. If you are getting knocked off every time, then there is something wrong with you. There is nothing to fix about getting knocked off, just position yourself properly and move at the right time.

If you trust the people in your group(and if it's a guild group you should) why didn't you just tell ppl to roll need on what they can use(class stuff) and greed the other stuff. Certainly you had to see the counter going down, so it wasn't a surprise. Not being able to watch a timer is rather silly. It is honestly your own fault for not being able to figure things out fast enough....good luck on the ticket, but I doubt they will do anything, being that there was a timer for ppl to roll on. I am personally amazed that people that could not even use stuff didn't just auto pass on the loot.....that wouldn't have been so hard for the people in your op either.

No, you don't. I run almost every time with the same tank. As he puts it, "I can live for about 30 seconds with my cooldowns after the enrage timer hits and then I go down". What you are living through is the tank properly using his cooldowns when and if the enrage does hit. The first time we completed Foundry the other day(just hadn't chosen to do it for some reason before that), we actually hit the enrage timer and beat him after it. This most recent time, we did not hit it, so apparently we are getting a tad better at that Revan encounter.

You aren't the only one. Practically everyone in this thread has informed the OP that they don't have a problem of being knocked off .

So, we are going off from the fact that apparently everyone else is able to tank this instance and finish that encounter except you?

No, those are the drops he has gotten from the boss/encounter the opening poster was talking about, not his makeup . The OP wanted to see a full week's worth of drops from him, so he is updating the drops. You can find his group makeup earlier in the thread.

I am afraid that the guy probably rolled need. Every time I have seen what you are talking about happening, the loot only went to someone who rolled need. I have never seen loot go to someone who rolled greed over someone who rolled need. I mean the guy can say this since you cannot see the roll. I am not sure what is happening. It doesn't happen on every roll, but I have seen it happen several times.

Yes, I am saying just deal with it. If you played WoW at all, you would realize the number of times a boss was killed and pieces dropped that nobody could even think of using..... If you are a healer and are complaining about a dps drop that is assigned to you, just consider that it gives you more options. I am not claiming it is at all perfect, but honestly complaining about loot drops that sometimes people cannot use seems kinda silly, consider the other games I have played at endgame. One also has to remember that the current system completely removes the chance of ninja looting on gear. The only thing that is left up for master loot are biometric crystal alloys that may drop.

The problem with your progression chart is that not all of those instances came into the game at the same time, so comparing all of BC to the first month or so of a new MMO isn't quite fair. Just consider the fact that in the future there will be further operations that you can compare on a similar level to WoW. Don't try and compare it a month after the game came out. Consider the fact that it was basically trying to find 40 people for Molten Core right after the game came out and even if you are talking about BC, the raiding still came out gradually.

You clearly didn't read what he said. He never once said the game in its current state is awful. Please go away and start trolling somewhere else.

Talk about a whinefest. Many previous games you would have a boss drop loot that NOBODY in the raid makeup could use, depending on what classes you brought, just consider those items to be similar to this.

Almost every game I have seen has had this mechanic. If someone loots the boss when you are running back and not in the phase, you will not be able to loot.

What does your issue about juggernaut tanking have to do with the raid weapons.....please stop trolling when you have nothing better to say. Secondly, if you think WoW responded to EVERY ticket with a GM, you are full of the perverbial.....never mind, because believe me, they did not. Also, generally you never did get a response if they did for AT LEAST 6-10 hours. Usually, I simply got a reply in my mailbox saying they were sorry they could not get to me. At least in this game, you don't have to go to a mailbox to see that......

The point of Nightmare mode is to be able to say whereever you want that you completed Nightmare mode or certain bosses in nightmare mode. it may be a good recruiting tool should you need further recruits, especially if you are competing with several other guilds that haven't completed hard mode ops.

There is no need to respec at 16 just because you don't have the spec he has proposed here. Also, there is no need to simply increase the size of your text to make it look better, lol. Also, you are dead wrong on the issue of Khem. He is not all there is. A LOT of your leveling is better with a dps companion, such as Andronikus. When fighting against packs of normal mobs, he is perfectly viable. Also completely ignoring your dps companions is silly. There is simply no reason why you can't gear them up without spending a lot of credits. It is amazing sometimes what you can get from the comendation vendors when you find yourself not needing the gear yourself. I have gotten to 50 myself and helped other people level up.

Honestly, there is nothing wrong with the 31 point lightning talent, it is the 31 point madness talent that sucks balls. It is strictly a worse version of affliction with a cooldown. Because of that, we end up with a madness build that is labeled as a hybrid, when all it really is is a madness build.

The problem is you not understanding something. The madness build is NOT a hybrid build, it is a madness sorc build. The simple fact that it has more than 10 pts outside the main tree does not in and of itself refer to it as a hybrid build. Next, if you seriously cannot tell when your lightning storm has procd, then you are blind, under which circumstances you should not be playing this game. Finally, Wrath is what makes this build even viable. it provides for more than 2 abilities and adding a cooldown doesn't solve any problem, it creates one. It gimps the spec to practically being useless.

Some people hit the reply button and then take a while to compose their thoughts, sometimes rewriting their thoughts, and then shortening them and end up with exactly the same thing, lol.

Umm, did you see anyone else respond saying ithappened to them at all. So what are you talking about FIX it, it never happened to any of us.....there isn't anything to fix.

Let's not forget something. While you could simply fly to your guildie to help them quest, consider how long some of those flights were.....Even on Belsavis, I rarely remember any flights as long as Undercity to Booty Bay for instance. Part of the Orbital System design is based on immersion so to speak.

Ok first off, I want to compliment the OP for having a very informative post. Even if I did not agree with everything he said, he at least explained his position well and didn't just present some short whinefest with no examples of what he is talking about. Then there is this piece that I responded to, which fails to reach the same level and instead devolves into some jump on the bandwagon because I agree about some minutae the opening poster mentioned. It is NOT unusual to have encounters which do what you are saying. Except......the one boss you are talking about that doesn't require 2 tanks is the NONTANKABLE one.......so what is your point, lol.

If you are looking for the buff on the icon bar, you are doing it wrong. It is so patently obvious on your character when you have a Wrath buff .
