Since there has been some discussion about our raid readiness of late, I wanted to make a sticky here that we can use to determine just what we are capable of and what we need to work on as a guild in order to handle raid instances. I'm sure there are more effective ways of doing this - it's something of a quick-and-dirty method, but it'll give us an idea. Please reply with additions and corrections and I'll keep this edited. The idea is to find out just how many 60+ toons we could conceivably get online at once.

To qualify for this list, a player should be active (played within the last 15 days.)

Main ----------- 60-70 ------------------------- 70
Alazaar ----------- Warrior ----------------------------------- Warrior
Alek --------------- Rogue, Paladin, Hunter, Priest
Arielah ------------ Priest ------------------------------------- Priest
Beltane ----------- Mage
Cedrick ----------- Paladin
Darkdwarf ------- Warrior
Degen ------------ Warlock, Paladin, Hunter -------------- Warlock
Dememberist ---- Mage ------------------------------------- Mage
Dogtags ---------- Rogue ------------------------------------ Rogue
Dworf ------------- Hunter
Grethik ----------- Warlock
Erniewasabi ------ Mage
Gleitie ------------- Hunter, Warlock
Hope -------------- Paladin
Iridior ------------- Warrior
Joetahoe --------- Priest, Warrior -------------------------- Priest
Ketiara ----------- Shaman, Paladin, Warrior, Druid
Kortship ---------- Hunter
Magleto ----------- Mage ------------------------------------ Mage
Maklah ----------- Paladin ----------------------------------- Paladin
Manthellas ------- Priest
Mooneyez ------- Hunter
Notyourwife ----- Rogue, Warrior--------------------------- Rogue
Presario ---------- Hunter
Rildo ------------- Rogue
Rushin ----------- Paladin
Stonehaus ------- Hunter
Tressa ----------- Warrior
Xalin ------------- Warrior ---------------------------------- Warrior

Based on this - we could very possibly do a Level 60 40-man raid (a group pf 29 60-70s, complete with 10 healers.) Here's something else to consider. Molten Core and AQ40 and other such 40-man raids can really no longer be considered "end game". They were designed for level 60s, not 70s. From what I understand, the level 70 "end game" instances top out at 25-man raids. In this sense, we are an end-game guild as soon as 15 more active players hit level 70. That's going to be pretty soon.

Bear in mind that I've probably made an error or five here due to my lack of knowledge of who may be who's alt. Also, getting all possible toons on at once is darn near impossible. Still, it shows what we are theoretically capable of.

The members of As The Palace Burns all work well together in an instance. That is why I believe that we are capable of doing end game content (Karahzhan, Gruul's Lair, etc.) The only obstacles are making a time schedule for a time so that everyone can get on without conflict from their
life responsibilities such as work. Getting people attuned for the various instances also presents a time problem. With some proper steps taken we can get everyone attuned and make a flawless schedule for members to get on.

LES MAKE THIS WORK!!!

ATPB FOREVA!!!!
