Day #2 of the drama-filled antics on Cairne. This time in my own guild. Saturdays (as I explained earlier) is my raid day and I get to pretty much fill it with whatever I'd like to do. I wanted to do ToC10 yesterday, but we didn't have the people to fill the raid. So I grabbed a bunch of the people who had recently dinged 80 and we all went on our merry way to Obsidian Sanctum. I wanted to do it with 1 drake up, but since I really didn't have the DPS for it...we just did a basic run through with all the drakes down. I thought that it would have been nice practice for the new guys on how to raid, what the loot rules are in the guild and how we work as a group. I liked my group that I got, and to be honest I really would like to keep those guys with me as a Saturday group. But that's for another post.
We marked up the trash (because I was asked to, so I did as I was asked) and we downed the first lot of trash. Then one of our tanks (who I won't call out but he knows who he is) decided he wasn't going to wait and decided that he wanted to be main tank and ran off to be all gung-ho and pull trash by himself. My main healer for the raid (who was a holy Priest) told him : "Look if you're going to go off and pull trash...then I'm not going to heal you." And so he didn't. The tank completely disrespected me as a tank and as a raid leader...talked over me and didn't wait for me to go first. I DON'T GIVE A SHIT if your gear is better than mine, I am the main tank because I am the raid leader and I say so.
So the off tank and the main healer got into a verbal scrap on vent, I told them both to chill out and be quiet. Off tank proceeds to throw a hissy fit, storm off and drop out of group. So in a pinch, I asked one of the DK's to jump into tank spec for me. Two DK's tanking FTW :D Aaislin (who I will mention because she's a sweetheart and a very good tank) jumped at the chance to tank her first raid as off tank and was absolutely amazing for a first try :)
And also props to Oopswrngbttn and Arraya who also were in OS as their first raid- you guys were absolutely amazing :) Moral of the story, don't be a jackass in raid and get too big for your boots because you think that your gear is better. As I've mentioned before Skill > Gearscore. I don't care if you have a 4200 GS (like Lysix) or a 5100 GS (like aforementioned offtank). My raid, my rules. Get that? ;)
