Post subject:  Helping Raid Progression

Raiding BC can be painful with the long quest-chaining attunements as well as the 10 man composition required for Karazhan. Most advanced raiding guilds have at least one team inside Karazhan and many guilds have multiple teams. What can be the most frustrating is getting your entire guild on the same page with what goals they are required to work towards.

With that in mind I decided to create a checklist for raiding guilds to make management of a guild-wide attunement effort much easier.

Step 1 - Karazhan Attunement
Initial quest near Karazhan (starts at level 68, solo)
Completion of Shadow Labyrinth (puggable)
Partial completion of Steamvaults (puggable)
Partial completion of Arcatraz (requires level 70 and flying mount, puggable)
Completion of Black Morass (guild effort, challenging pug)

Step 2 – Serpentshrine Attunement Quest (Everyone must complete)
Revered Reputation with Cenerion Expedition (solo quests, grouping through SV)
Heroic Slave Pens, Quest giver in between first and second boss

Step 3 – To Summon Nightbane (Only one person required to summon)
Revered Reputation with Honor Hold
Revered Reputation with Lower City
Quest line in Karazhan
Partial completion of Heroic Shattered Halls
Partial completion of Heroic Sethekk Halls

Step 4 – Serpentshrine Attunement
While the quest from Slave Pens is active…
Completion of Gruul’s Lair
Completion of Karazhan

Step 5 – Tempest Keep Attunement
Completion of Cipher of Damnation quest series in Shadowmoon Valley
Revered with Cenerion Expedition
Revered with Sha’tar
Revered with Honor Hold
Revered with Shadow Labyrinth
Completion of Heroic Steamvaults
Completion of Heroic Arcatraz
Completion of Heroic Shattered Halls
Completion of Heroic Shadow Labyrinth

Step 6 – Mount Hyjal Attunement
Completion of Black Morass Quest
Vials of Eternity quest in Caverns of Time
Completion of Serpentshrine Caverns
Completion of Tempest Keep

The most useful thing that I’ve found with the attunement process is that there is always something to do. While some of your guild may be inside Karazhan, other players can work towards other necessary attunement quests while getting better gear along the way (such as Heroic dungeons).

The biggest detriment is that the attunement process is long and because of the reputation requirement, guild mates that are new to 70 may lack the reputation required to gain access to Heroic dungeons. Because of the difficulty shift in the 5 man dungeons, guild mates are much less motivated to pug a group. It takes a lot of effort and a great deal of patience for a guild to stay tightly knit through the initial raids in Burning Crusade.

Other tools…

In regards to “gearing up” there’s a tool that you can go to check your class’s talent pool and find the appropriate gear be it rare or epic. This has been a useful reference when I’ve told my guild mates to research their upgrades.

On a similar note you can also visit any dungeon or raid drop page here and filter by your own class to see what may be useful to you specifically. An example in Karazhan can be found here:

Good Luck and I hope your guild progresses quickly.

I like how your "warlock affliction" gear include items for pure healing. Maybe you should go back and fix that.
