Hello everyone!
I'm just about to set up a guild for DK players who want to try DK only raiding (in future hopefully).
Atm we need all, we will go with 2-3 tank, 1 frost (guy with buff who is mostly just supposed to survive) and rest blood dps. /w me in game on Pujpuj or write here
You do know this is cata right...Quote:

Btw op, thats nice and funny idea.
if by "funny" you mean "unlikely to do anything meaningful with regard to content we don't outgear by an entire content patch." then sure.
But real talk here. Nearly all solo class guilds are either outright failures, or they're druid guilds. Druids are the only class that can do nearly everything needed to raid, but they're still deficient in some aspects. No hero/lust. several buffs/debuffs missing (though this is less of an issue in cata due to buff homogenization).
DKs get it worse. There are no ranged classes, no misdirect/tricks, no buffs save horn and abom's might and icy talons. And unholy frenzy. No pawprint, no stam buff, no thousand and one buffs and debuffs that normally work. No cleansing. No dispells. No healing. I can think of several bosses you could not down regardless of gear levels due to mechanics.
Plus, blut dps. HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA.
I want to find where you live, come over, and laugh in your face untill you realize how useless that is.
Blood needs vengence to dps. Blut can't get vengence without tanking damage. and it wears off fairly fast. Ergo you're gonna be tank swapping at a fair clip.
Also, even with vengence, you're looking at about 3 bluts for one regular dps, so you're going into a raid gimped in damage, and have zero healing.
tl;dr; this isn't gonna work, you're awful for thinking it would, and I hope you get humiliated in public for suggesting it.
Probably trying to replicate the DK only runs done before...

As for whether it will be possible all depends on not just skill but how accurate the scripting plays out.
Be my best fwiend, please. :3Quote:

To 'no buffs'- BoK from LW and Stamina from Insc, maybe I forgot some
I'm not saying we will get with this setup to progressive raiding like you but whatever, isn't fun what are games made for?
"hurr durr you're not good enough to take this challenge."
No. The first boss in BH, the boss that Fireland raiders outgear, will stop you cold regardless of what you do, no matter how geared you are. Untill we're talking panda raid gear tiers, anyway.
Speaking of which, you're all melee. God help you on any fight with a spacing mechanic. or crap like Zon'ozz. If you even get past the first Dragon Soul boss for that matter.
As for buffs and debuffs:
No lust.
No FF/Sunder armor.
No paladin auras, no healthstones, no banishes, fears, MCs, levitates, lifegrips, and the thousand and one utility spells that make raiding slighty more easy. No summon stone. No outside of battle rez.
You'll have +physical damage as long as your lone frosty stays alive and has Brittle Bones up.
You'll have +spell damage up for as long as the unholy dk is alive and has whatever up.
You won't have a single dispell/purge. This is probably the biggest damming thing.
Second biggest thing: your progression will be slowed by a large margin due to cloth/leather/mail drops no one needs mixed in with the plate EVERYONE in your raid wil be wanting. Assuming you can down a boss that means anything at all to current progression.
Yeah, you've got a point there, gear is something i havent realised. Well at least we will have math for enchanting. :)
Anyway, I know we will not take part in progressive raiding and we will do most likely just BoT/BWD. I dont want hardcore guild that will raid 5 hours a day.
Thats a crazy idea! Count me in. I will contact you in-game later today. And for the dispell heavy encounters we can have one guy play disco priest just for the sake of dispels. (but only if everything else fails)
