Converting to 10man boxer in Cataclysm?

[Mercurio]

Yes, I think I'll be 10-boxing in Cata. Of course, I've been 10-boxing for more than a year and a half

And I did hit a new milestone this weekend - after getting a few more toons somewhat geared up, doing some server/faction changes, and setting up macros...

I soloed three teams through VoA10!

And they all one-shot it, which I was really happy with - I didn't lose a single toon in any of my three runs. I was surprised at this, especially since one team has tanks that are well below the expected level of gear (one at 4200, the other at 4900 gear score).

Too bad there was only 1 usable drop out of the six, but I'm sure I'll have better RNG luck this week.

As I continue to mess around with 10-boxing, I am coming to the conclusion that success has surprisingly little to do with gear - maybe 80% preparation/strategy/execution and only 20% gear. A couple of examples of this:

• Theradin got through the first 4 bosses in ICC solo with toons that are a good 500-600 lower in gear score than my best team, but that best team (with gear scores of 5500-5600) tried Morrowgar for an hour or so, and the best I did was get him to 74% (LOL). Of course, I went in there on a whim and hadn't done any planning (crap strategy, great gear).
• It took me about 5 hours of wiping to Algalon with my 5500 GS team before I finally downed him the first time (great gear, imprecise strategy), and just this weekend one-shotted him with a sub-5K gear score team (crap gear, honed strategy).

I hope strategy can continue to overcome the tough things they throw at us in Cat.

Lol that's sick...

You should work on TOC and ICC on your mainteam see if you can push pass the first 4 ! ICC got another 5% buff

Is this a typo or should I be /bowing down to you? Algalon is the hardmode only Ulduar boss.

Oops, so maybe I meant Toravon Gets so confusing with all those three syllable bosses whose names end in "on".
