From the caches? Otherwise I'm 4/4 on weapons (two daggers, two maces) but that's only 645 or w/e.

Yeah I meant caches as he was referring to the 670 weap

Yeah, raid caches definitely do not contain weapons.

Do we get a cache for each tier or just one for the highest tier?

I asked before but I totally forget.

If you're referring to the Highmaul Raid mission that comes up every two weeks, you only get one mission, and its ilvl is based on the if you've cleared 15 bosses in normal or heroic. 15 bosses in normal = Heroic cache, 15 bosses in Heroic = Mythic cache.

Only 13 more weeks clearing H Kargath and I get my mythic loot!

I wanted to switch us to Heroic soon but I am worried

I'm curious if you still get HM raid missions, when BRF comes out.
685 mythic caches to 665 BRF normals would suck.

I hope you get one of each lol

I know the pug healer was under the impression you wanted to take the quake damage which I'm sure caused much strain on the healing side of things. But I was too focused on trying to do my job correctly to really see who was getting annihilated by quakes and/or WW.

I wonder what direction we want to go this week. I'm thinking H Karg -> Full Norm, or even just Full Norm -> H Karg if there's time. I really want the group to push through normal.

I realize this is weird because it's "just normal" and stupid easy to some, but we need to get there.

Quake is unavoidable. The whole raid takes damage every second for 12 seconds after Phemos throws his weapons to start Blaze.

I'd say just do H Karg -> Normal. I saw nothing in our H Twins attempts to think we were just a few key pieces of normal loot away from dropping them.

Are you saying the healer thought we were going to face tank fire?

Quake is very easy to heal through, it's when kids get stacks of blaze on them when it starts to get hard on the healers. If you position them properly you can avoid a lot of fire damage though

I am 99% sure repeat kills in the same week count. You can pug kargath 13 times in a row before the next mission pop and it should be a mythic cache.

I killed butcher several times this week and the kills show up on armory and masterplan missions of interest tab now show as mythic. From the little research i did other people say the same thing.

I feel like Quake is pretty brutal on mythic. It was by far the largest source of damage I (and everyone else not a tank) took over the course of our attempts last night. It might not be a big spike of damage since it hits over 12 seconds, but since healing is difficult during those 12 seconds--plus a bit more since Blaze lasts something like twice as long as Quake--they have to do a lot of catching up to get everyone topped off again. You have to remember that Quake gets buffed by Enfeebling Roar as well. Twelve 15-16k Quake ticks might not be a big deal but when they're buffed to 24-26k that's a completely different story. Course part of that is because we had anywhere from 2-6 people not taking the Roar, which caused it to hurt a lot more than it should.

People should be avoiding 100% of the fire damage. Bad luck during empowered WW is really only time getting Blaze stacks is excusable. Not saying I do it perfectly every time, but it's certainly the goal there and I feel like a dumbass when I do take a stack. Unless I haven't used AMS yet and can still remove the DoT.

Also, one last comment about last night's attempts:
