Naxx question

[Redbeard]

I figured this was the case, but what about trash? Ive linked 7 or 8 items that may or may not be good upgrades for people.. im wondering if well at least be able to farm some trash with some success.

Thanks for the response.

People were really only 5 manning Kara once patch 3.0 hit and all classes got massive DPS boosts. Before that people were certainly taking multibox teams, along with others, and doing kara, but I don't think anyone was really 5 manning it outside of perhaps a few Sunwell geared people.

Naxx will certainly be doable like this but it'll take a while for people to "outgear" the instance -- ie once you have some people sporting season 7 (or whatever) or T9 they will probably so outgear Naxx that it'll be a lot easier.

BTW its still worth doing kara 1st boss once a week, I do it every monday. His mount dropped for me yesterday, hopefully i'll get 5 in the coming months

Yep, quite a few trash drops that a 5-man group could farm.

Hm quite interesting wrists for my pala there You think Naxx Trash is doable with 5 decent geared toons?
If so, where's trash bigger "population"?

Thanks for feedback.

The plagued gargoyles in the plague wing would be impossible for 5 characters at 80, you have 6 seconds to kill them once they hit 30% otherwise they regen to full, and with only 3 dps you'd need something ridiculous like 6k dps to pull it off. When the come in packs of 2 they have overlapping poison dots. So you'd need to stupidly outgear them, and if you stupidly outgear them, you don't want the loot from them to 5 man

Some of the constructs in the construct wing come with nasty aoes and knockbacks - that send you into slime that slowly kill you (and do 50% damage in health and mana if you leave the slime), these may be doable, but extremly hard and probably not worth the effort.

Spider wing may be doable, but they force pull and poison charge, so it's a dps race. These are hexable/polyable.

Military trash would be the easiest, imho. packs of 4 that mortal strike, and summon skeletons and disease dot. They whirlwind so you need to keep them away from your followers. But, again, if you can 5 man these you probably don't want the loot they drop. Military also has the largest number of trash mobs before you have to engage a boss.

Keep in mind, that each wing only has maybe 10-15 trash pulls before you have to engage a boss to continue.

The trash drops are also ridiculously low, I've run 3 wings of kara on 2 chars for 2-3 weeks now and seen, I think, 2 trash drops in 10+ hours of inside the instance.

Keep in mind however that the 25 man version does drop BoE epics off bosses, so imo you are better off just farming gold and buying the epics when they get to reasonable prices in AH. The tanking boots recently were on the AH for 2k gold on my server, which is a crazy great price for the best tank plate boots a pally can get -- fortunately they dropped in one of my naxx25 runs and my pally got it for free
