Same as here, wheelhaus, feel free to hit me up in game. I'm kind of a carebear, mostly mission in Gallente space cause its decent ISK and low hassle, but have done some small fleet WH ratting in T3 cruisers for that tasty sleeper salvage. Very little PVP, rarely mess with low/null sec.

No, but I'll have to look it up. All our kills hovered around the 14 minute mark if memory serves.

Very cool. If memory serves Stars was also the first guild to kill heroic Spine of Deathwing and then Deathwing himself at the end of Cataclysm. They also did it out of nowhere...everyone assumed it would be down to Method, Paragon, and Blood Legion, haha.

I figured they'd have to drop some healing for that fast a kill. We never did fights that aggressively underhealed; our raid leader was pretty conservative. But you can definitely tell the difference in how fast he was dropping.

Here's our kill:

I'm the Boomkin (Whysperr).

We 6 healed on our first kill... we were at a DPS shortage so I also donned my Boomkin gear, which started a cycle of not having enough raid heals, so 5 heal turned into 6 heal...

Cata balance, IMO, was retarded. The classes more or less all turned identical. More importantly, the ability to gear/talent trees to suit different types of healing disappeared, which was absolutely retarded.

I had gearsets for burst raid heals, sustained raid heals (~25% less than burst, but infinite mana), and MT heals. Yes, Pallys told me I couldn't MT heal, and I did....

Disc priests were so retardedly good for this fight...


Security? I think I may have apped back in the day as a potential transfer...

Funny part was we only raided 8 hours a week MAX. (for those that don't WoW, that's WAY under average... most hardcore progression guilds raid 5 nights a week)

8 hours is pretty casual. It sounded like you were in a progression guild or in a guild who competed for server/world 1st. I think the longest I've raided was a couple of hours in Molten Core and Onyxia in vanilla.

In Security we raided 4 times a week, total of 16 hours. I can't remember us coming in on an off night to do progression, but occasionally we'd stay late if we were close to a kill on a new boss.

That said, in a lot of top-tier guilds 5+ days or extra hours a night is not unheard of during hardcore progression when a new tier is released until everything is on farm. However, once everything is on farm those same guilds do 2 or fewer nights a week since they don't need longer than that to clear everything. That's pretty much what we did during ICC when it was on farm - we'd clear the whole instance in a night and the rest of the week was either alt runs, older content (which is how I got my Mimiron's Head ), or sometimes PvP.
