Hard Mode Ulduar

Lok'tar!

We had a good raid last Sunday, clearing smoothing through the Keepers to get a few attempts at General. Though we didn't manage to down him, it was a good experience nonetheless. Anyway, a few issues on hand here:

1. Raiding for the week

For this week, raiding will be on Saturday, 8.30pm and Sunday 10.00am. I'm proposing to fix this as the standard raiding time, so in future please plan your weekend with that in mind. That said, any urgent/last minute matters that will prevent you from attending the raid, do let us know in advance. If everyone is fine with the timing, then from now on, raid timing will be as that unless upon notification.

For this weekend, we will be using Saturday for hardmode attempts and Sunday for General, so do your necessary preparations beforehand.

2. Flasks

For this week, we will be trying out a new system with the guild bank, where the guild bank will be providing the raid with flasks, with herbers supplying the necessary herbs a a nominal rate.
I will just highlight the main points of this flask system.
a) At the end of the week's Ulduar raid, everyone is required to contribute 100g to the guild bank.
b) For herbers, they can contribute herbs instead of gold, at 20g per stack of lichbloom/icethorn or 20g per frost lotus. So instead of depositing 100g in the guild bank, a herber can choose instead to deposit 5 stacks of lichbloom instead, or 3 stacks of herbs (60g equivalent) +40g.

If there are any doubts, do not hesitate to clear it over vent. As we are in the trial period of the new system, there are definitely room for improvement, so any opinions are most welcome.

Blood and Thunder!
