Easiest wing to start for Naxx

Post by Gorgangio

Slowly but steadily my guild is reaching its level 80 members and getting their HC gear. We have our 2 tanks and 3 healers and the DPS are getting there so i was looking to start naxx early Januaryish.

A little history about the guild. We never tried Kara before the 3.0.2 patch and then we cleared it in around 3 hours. But we did have a T5 tank from another guild. None of us have previous Naxx experience at level 60.

So i was just wondering what wing would be best to start in and what order therefore after. I will be the Main Tank, so i would like to start learning some tactics and strategy for the bosses now :)

By looking at it i would say Military Ward will be the starter just because i see the bosses there have the lowest HP, that is all i have based it on.

So, little help please :)

Arachnid Wing is probably the easiest, fallowed by Plague Wing, then Military, then Construct. The first boss in military wing isn't too bad if you have 2 people that know what they are doing with the Mind Control Crystals. But past that Military wing is a bit of a bitch, and I say construct wing last because of Grobbulus, who's a pain in the ass in 10 man Naxx. Arachnid Wing is pretty much all Tank and Spanks with some type of twist, weather it be Anub'Rekhan with his Locust Swarm or Faerlina with her interuptable enrage. Big thing, you want 1 solid TANK healer and 2 raid healers for most of the fights because theirs alot of random damage that the party takes (Only real exception being Patchwerk). Seeing you have an idea is to when you want to start, I would say get a solid raid leader and have them learn the fights back and forth so everything seems natural.

Best of Luck when you get to progression.

Edit: Damn you Squeezie, took me so long to type that out you got to it before me :P

Construct quarter is fairly doable on 10-man, especially Patchwerk. On 25-man though, the place is a nightmare. Patchwerk absolutely canes people with hateful strikes, and Grobbulus with 25 people.... Urgh.

As we labal ourselves as a social guild (A)

Spider=>Deathknight=>Plague=>Construct, spider is breezy, DK is breezy, Plague is breezy if your guild can move around, construct is probably the hardest because its the only wing you can't clear with a team of all greens, they're mostly gear checks and if you don't have the gear... : /

I'm gonna have to say Spider>Plague>Deathknight>Construct

Spider = an easy heroic

Plague = dont get hit by the lava/gogogo dps

Deathknight = A lot of strat, four horsemen is impossible without everyone knowing their job and the fight.

Construct = gear check.

But good luck with your progression, im the Guild Master of my guild, Dec 2nd was the first time any of our members had been into naxx, we are currently at the four horsemen and we get closer everytime, we have only given it three attempts so far.

=]

Four Horsemen is a raid leader "Do I have a brain?" check, if the raid leader is an idiot and explains the fight wrong and assigns roles wrong, you're in trouble, but if the raid leader properly explains what's going on and assigns people's positions correctly, its one of the easier encounters in the dungeon. Plague is much harder because its "Do I have a brain?" check for the entire raid, since you can get screwed if you lose a lot of people to acid clouds, heigan's acid splash, whatever.

Thanks =D

I'm hoping that we can clear tonight... which we probably wont, we went in severely undergeared, and i always have at least one person under 1000 DPS... WTF?

Tbh when people are under 1k dps its most likely not the gear, but they are using the wrong rotations.
Get all your dps to learn their classes highest dps rotations.
