Well I was hoping they would lose the series, I consider them how not to run a team in the MLB. Not because I don't think they are successful, but because buying a team just seems so... wrong.
It's like paying top arena people to carry your team to gladiator. Sure they can do it, but does it mean as much?
Naysayer, I think the problem is that you're trying to speak for all of us here when you say that we all want to get Gladiator by ourselves. 4+1 Gladiator is pretty f'ing amazing in my book.

You're implying that i don't think gladiator 4+1 is also amazing, which is wrong. It is, but there are things that are far more impressive, like building the blueprints others copy to reach that level. Like almost going 100% win percentage and having the worlds best teams ducking you. Like playing as 1 person against 5 instead of two minds versus 5.Originally Posted by Mosg2
Solo gladiator would be the communities original goal if a comp was found to be possible from the start. Most would be running it rather than a 4+1 comp.
It would be fuckin amazing yes, I agree. I just personally have zero issues with playing with my healer buddy.
I would reactivate my 5th account to do it in a heartbeat... I just can't think of any comp accomplishing that. Top teams have figured out a couple ways to beat krom, which btw, melee strategies are not being said aloud on these forums for a reason.. so don't ask.
Running 5x dps is so touchy and no room for error compared to a healer.
We still make our own schedule, just txt each other and bam games... (altho for 5v5 you are kinda limited to late afternoon / evening anyway). We still piss people off, and we still hit 2k (hopefully higher with my lil roguie babies). Those are my main goals, and I actually enjoy the communication and laughter / comaraderie my healer and I have.
To each their own, and if a viable 5xboxer comp makes itself viable in the future I will be there for sure. Keep in mind we never know what cataclysm and "path of the titans" will offer us. Whole new set of skills and effects added to our spells... could be something in there game breaking just like "elemental mastery" was back in season2 which got most of us started boxing

I'm really becoming quite swayed towards the 4x Rogue team instead of the 4x Ret team, mostly due to your video and confidence level plus the theorycrafting that has happened.
Every time I get kited and killed by 2-3 people in AV I get a little bit more discouraged about the Rets. The damage is insane when I get on a target but getting there can be a *huge* problem sometimes. A good frost mage is nigh-uncatchable for me and I'm not sure what to do about it. Yeah, HoF helps but they can just blink and kite until it's down and then we're back to the begining. Maybe this is just an example of me being a skill-less nub, but I'd like to think otherwise
I'm just scared to invest the time into the Rogues and see nothing come of it. The non-viability in pve is something of a concern for me but nothing huge.
Convince me

Have you tried repentance? I figure its a no brainer, but sometimes people forget the simple things. Just saying!I'm really becoming quite swayed towards the 4x Rogue team instead of the 4x Ret team, mostly due to your video and confidence level plus the theorycrafting that has happened.

That's ridiculous lol. Are you RAF'ing up?
My fastest RAF boost to 60 was a little under 8 hours... Unfortunately all my RAF time is gone and I don't have the cash to go all in on four more :/

nope. no RAF. 2 days, 4 hours - 65. Not THAT crazy considering thats like 35 hours to 60. To be fair, doing 15 minute lockouts in Cathedral for 15 levels, so about 10 of those hours are AFK time waiting for instance reset.

I'm trying to figure out a way to RAF up some Rogues instead of non-RAF. I'll gladly pay ~100 bucks to RAF it but no matter how you slice it you're looking at ~200 bucks or more for the accounts plus transfers to your main accounts. Ugh.
Think I'm going to get all the honor gear out of the way and then see how the Paladins are. I'm sure I'll get more used to them over time.
