ok, my item lvl is 331 atm...and i have yet to complete a heroic. only been on one heroic run, and really only ran about 4 to 5 reg. Cata dungeons, which means my exp. pretty much sucks...but i am good at listening and taking direction. my dps is around 10k to 12k so imo i thought i was ready for heroics.

Que'd up for my first random, and got Grim Batol...never been in there, but my group was a 4person guild group and me. they were nice about giving me directions and it was going well. until the last boss...i didnt know about staying in the middle and i was taking tons of damage as a rogue. i died at 80% and the group wiped...they didnt flame me, and it was my fault but they decided to kick me...this was the first time i have ever been kicked out of a random. no bigge, i pretty much thought they wanted to pull another guildy in for the last boss...

so i que up for another 55min wait, and finally get Tol'Vir. the group wipes 4 times on the first boss and we break up. so i que up again for another random...just hoping to finally complete a heroic. well another 45min wait and get into another random with it breaking up just when it started...

finally just gave up for the day, and going to try and regroup tomorrow...going to research the dungeon strats a bit, but hell, im worried i wont remember the strat once i get in there...i also thought about just running reg. randoms, but the gear really wont be much of upgrades for any of my slots...so it would be basically running for rep. which wouldnt be a bad thing.

thanks for listening..had a bad day, and was just hoping for some Valor/Justice points...

There is no room for failure in WoW. Why do they even have bosses? Just drop a chest in the end of the dungeon and be done with it.

I generally avoid random dungeons with PUGS full of players i dont know. So, suffice it to say, i dont run a lot of instances. I do however know exactly what you are talking about Liquid. Lots of bad days playing WoW. They generally precede me leaving the game for a long while.

They were ***holes to kick you. Too many people take this way too seriously.

i also have had mostly bad experience with dungeon finder since cataclysm especially. i find that i hate almost everyone in WoW, and that i play it only to murder their avatars.

I first read it first as our guildmates kicked you, and was saddened. Glad I read it again.

Not trying to bash....


but you hardly do any normals, and then don't expect to be kicked from a heroic?..?..


....and then wait until being kicked, to review strategies...?.?


Your order of operations, as it were, is a little backward...


A. Run normals to learn the basics of the place.

B. review strats to at least know what special crap is added in the heroic version.

C. Run Heroics.


Try the above instead of C>B>A

Good tune! Never seen the video for it. Pretty cool as well.
