Just curious if anyone here knows what raids / bosses are considered boxable?

Have anyone done ToC-10? How far into ulduar have people gotten? How many of the weekly raid quests are boxable? :)

Naxx
Voa

ToC, i think it'll be doable, aslong as we outgear it a bit.
Ulduar (?)
ToS, Sarh

Boxing will be tough:
ICC
EoE, Malygos

I only got to Razorscale in Ulduar but its definitely possible to do more..

Regarding ICC: I think some parts might be easier than ToC if you have the gear for it..

Not too sure about ICC - I guess anything is possible, but Marrowgar looks really really tricky :)

Funk on his Druid + healer, me boxing 3 ele shams, Ymoar boxing a tank, healer and dps and Dix (rogue) did her last week. Dunno who i'm missing, my bet is Ymoar on another dps char.

Malygos is easywith enough ranged (phase 3 can be macroed)

ICC:

First 4 bosses are easy enough in fact Saurfang might be easier due to us easily focussing the same target but the enrage timers are fairly unforgiving and I dont think our teams have the gear yet.

The most difficult encounter for us will be gunship i think.

I'd think most of Ulduar should be doable with current gear levels. I was running multiple shams (dps/heals) when it released for our 10man crew. Same for ToC, but I've only done up through icehowl before hiatus. Hoping to bust out some ICC action starting this weekend!

Actually I think GS 5k+ should be enough for the first bosses.. I can do 6k+ DPS group buffed and i guess maybe 7k DPS full buffed (gotta try it and adjust my click macros, timing is everything :P).

Gunship looks fairly easy (watched a movie of this encounter from a quad shaman boxer, forgot the name).. If we follow his strategy it should be no problem at all.

Marrowgar is easy too we just need to basically stand on the encounter (everyone, maybe spread to ranged out for less damage). That way we dont have to worry about the blue flames ;)

Lady Deathwhisper looks pretty easy too, just gotta make sure we move out of DnD I think (maybe I forgot something)..

Saurfang, well he can be very easy depending on the DPS of course.. We gotta kill the spawns very fast but I think its possible..

I am getting the last pieces of gear i can get atm (245 crafted Robes/bracers).. I think my guys will end up with a GS of 5100-5200 before hitting ICC (maybe this saturday?)..

Bah i wrote a long reply and the forums ate it. My (much abbreviated this time) thoughts on having done these fights in ICC10/ICC25 on my shaman

Marrowgar - easy even with low dps this should be a farm boss as I have managed to heal this for 9mins when i was in a fail pug. Just need to stay alive during bone storm

Lady Deathwhisper is actually harder than it looks ive had lots of pugs fail on her as there are a lot of things to take into consideration. At low gear levels its hard to heal through with 2 healers and you need to decurse too. With 3 healers its very hard to beat the enrage timer.

Gunship is the easiest fight solo but I still think it will be hard to box as your group will be split (some on cannons some on each ship) it will also be hard for boxers that have not switched to software that allows accurate mouse broadcasting

Saufang has low dps requirements as long as you can avoid healing the boss too much. Hopefully this should be easy through focus firing blood beasts 1 at a time though with no hunters (dont think anyone is boxing hunters now?) then kiting the blood beasts will be tough so the fights will take longer which makes the encounter far far more difficult. Marks are also tough to heal through as well.
