I'm interested in bear runs as well. I've been present for about 80% of the runs when they started, and I've never been invited to a bear run.

ZA resets tomorrow - when will the next run be?

Recipe for a BARE run: 1 AOE tank 1 Warrior tank 2 healers with differnt strengths 1-2 shaman (can be resto or dps - for water walking and heroism and totems) 1-2 mages (CC and AOE) 1-2 hunters (CC and pulling) someone who can dispel magic decent synergy in the groups someone who knows the run and can call things out on vent Flasks and LOTS of mana pots It seems to me that the hardest part is getting the tanks lined up. If you can do that, chances are you too can organize a BARE run. PS Most of the folk who have organized in the past are having shifting RL commitments so there is definitely room for someone to step in and do it. I am findng that I need to spend extra time with my boys before raid and sleep after raid most days so I can't organize myself. But if either of these things is not true one evening I am happy to step in and help sheep if needed.

I'm gonna revise Ave's list. This is all it really takes: An organizer 1 AOE tank 1 other tank 2 healers, not of the same class 1 mage 1 other AOE (mage/lock) (I don't really think a hunter is that important, but I naturally have never been to ZA without a hunter, so I can't say) Get the stuff in bold and the rest is easy. Our pally tanks don't log on very frequently in time to do it before our raids.

shammy for waterwalking?

its a trick to cut off like 1-2 pulls from the lightning totem boss.

I would like to go to za if there is ever a spot open.

I might be going bicycle shopping with a friend tomorrow evening, so feel free to get a bear run going without me, otherwise I'll try for it once I get online. Dunno if there's SSC/TK plans or anything.

This weekend could totally be our first ZA reset with 2 bears. People saved to the first bear run: Neli, Kaercha, Toast, Casperne, Azemir, Contrail, Bod, Talliara, Miraj, Terraa, Sovelis, Solsiva. A 2nd bear run would probably need Silv tanking alongside Nobler or Saedi, a group healer (Pnut, Talisee, etc), a tank healer (Turk, Honeybutt, Athlon, etc), and has its pick of AOE from Averly, Johnna, Demetra, Marlucia, and more. Do iiiiiittttt! Next reset is monday morning, 8/11.

I would be more then happy to go on the bear runs and heal!!! I've just stood out for a bit since it seemed impossible to get a spot due to all the interest. Will there be set date and times for this weekend or week?

Next run, Tuesday 5:15pm. If a prot pally can plan to come, that would be groovy.

I have a tank set if you need it, but its mostly just kara stuff.

ZA resets tomorrow morning, so I will absolutely, positively, run it after the raid tonight.
