Once more, I didn't get to play a lot of World of Warcraft over the course of the last weekend as my wife and I went out of town with some friends to celebrate her birthday. On Saturday morning, however, GoV was able to make a Sartharion attempt with 22 raiders. I was lucky to be available for the run.
We got all 3 drakes down, but Sartharion himself was beyond our capabilities. We lacked healers, DPS, and most of all coordination - people were getting hit by Lava Walls despite repeated call-outs on Ventrilo. We had too many tanks as well, something that we urgently need to address if we want to progress.
Still, even though Sartharion managed to get the better of us this week, I have no doubts that we'll down him by next week, provided of course that we can muster up enough raiders to make another attempt.
After our Sartharion run the Asians re-formed for a Naxxramas attempt, this time with our Australian friends. We had to borrow a DPS (Fazzy) and a healer (Dhjey) from the guild at large. It was nice to step into Naxxramas with Damo, Elauris and Pinkmoon, although I have to admit that this was a hideously bad run. We couldn't even down Grand Widow Faerlina (Anub'rekhan we downed after four or five attempts).
Looking at our performance, it's pretty clear to me that we need to spend a bit more time beefing up our Aussie friends. Heroic runs are on the agenda this week, and plenty of them - we want everyone as ready for raiding as possible. I have no desire to repeat our poor showing once the weekend rolls around again.
