Secrets of Shadowbolting

Maybe I’m just jaded. I have a lot of high hopes for our guild and what we can do. However, Gruul’s lair is quite possibly one of the biggest thorns in my side. We had 5 non-guildies step in to help out so we could have 25 people. 2 tries of failures and they dropped out. I’m a warlock, but in this case we needed a mage with HP – so I was the mage tank…on a crappy laptop while mentally exhausted and after waiting an hour to get the group together. I wasn’t feeling it but I tried for the guild. Gruul’s is frustrating with our guild. I mean beyond frustrating. We’re just not coordinated enough to do it yet. Nothing against the guy who was organizing it but typing everything into chat takes MUCH longer than saying it out loud.
It was painful, it was awful and I’d prefer to keep it all in-guild next time so we don’t have people bailing. That fight SHOULD be simple. We just need to sort it out a little better and be more prepared when we start so we don’t spend half the time we are there organizing who tanks who and who heals who.
Next week should be better. I’ll be on my main computer, we’ll have vent and we’ll make sure people come.
I’m just starting to dislike gruul’s cause we can’t get high king down and there’s no real reason why aside from a little un-coordination which seems to destroy the raid.
