Comments on: F’ing Epeeners!!! http://casualhardcore.wordpress.com/2009/07/10/fing-epeeners/ A casual hardcore player trying to establish what that means.

But when people bring their paladin alts, it gets complicated. No one uses Pallypower except me (lol?), and when the raid leader assign us different buffs even though we had already talked it through *and buffed everyone* already it gets confusing. Also, I think there's a difference between "stepping up" and healing with your main every single week when all the others are bringing their third alt. :D I’m a paladin myself, and usually raids with one more so Blessings are easy to coordinate.

I said they should step up. We started our first trash pull at 7:10pm server time. Due to a lack of figuring out who the extra healer was, several disconnects, afks, and not accepting summons it was over 30 minutes later before we finally pulled Patchwerk, our first boss. It's a weeknight. I'm one hour ahead of server. I work early and I'm not as young as I used to be so staying up past midnight on a weeknight is a no-go for me. Since we're a guild that doesn't raid weekends (aside from Sunday evenings, which once again is a night before a workday) I take my raiding time pretty seriously. I want to have fun and goof around, but I want to down bosses as quickly as possible. It also didn't help that the shaman did say repeatedly that she would heal if need be and yet the raid leader didn't acknowledge it... /facepalm The lack of attention in farmed raids is astounding! @talarion – I didn’t say they should be forced.

Its the right of the raid leader to ask a class which can fullfill the roll if the person wants to do this. But if the person declines because of lack of skill or lack of joy, you have not the right to force this person. Im sorry, kyrilean , but i dont agree fully with your post.

It aint rocket science (but what is..) to pop up a buff list for each pally. But then if they're not reading party chat, then they'll miss that too. I've seen our guildmage start a bull on principal as he kept being buffed with might. He did it naked too. Thats mage melee-dps, due to buffs not being right. When the raid leader asked why, it was a clear slap in the face to the x2 pallys who could not co-ordinate buffs. It made the poitnt Seems odd that this still occurs, especially in guild runs.
