no offense but that would be more of a strat problem , with a good strat , you dont really get los / oor probs on skeram

and for a raid , i'd say gear > spec > skills
high end gear more than makes up for spec deficiencies
also , gear gives you more room for error , which in turn helps make up for lack of skill = p

for mages all specs are pretty much raid viable now , be it in MC or naxx , in my opinion at least .

and like some1 already said , mage t1 is teh sux ... your better off in random stuff from zg / aq20 / 5 man instances

well it depends on which fight
fights like thaddius/4h are extremely gear dependent tho
no doubt skill is important too , but there are some fights which focus more on gear

thats what i meant oO .. unless u mean a netherwind mage with sotsf beating a mage in frostfire with soulseeker / a'tiesh.... i dont see that happening >.<

and on thadd , i really doubt undergeared ppl can down him before enrage , ppl dreaming / dc / not paying attention to thaddius arrows = lack of concentration / bad isp or luck ... has nothing to do with skill
and on 4h , if u thought 4/9 was getting resisted a lot , its even worst without lol

i dont know , i just think skill is seriously overrated in PVE , all it takes is just 40 ppl with the right gear and attitude / concentration and a bit of luck to kill stuff

pvp tho is a different story , where skill prevails or in the case of WoW can be replaced by engineering lol

you'll change your mind in naxx =) to be honest , the only place u start noticing gear importance is twin emps onwards

in the case of pvp , its rock , scissor and stone , just that in WoW , with skills or gear , scissors can beat stone and so forth
pvp is the only field where skill can make as much of a difference as gear , in my opinion at least

haha yeappppp
sigh tmnet for the m'fukin win i guess

tmnet never ceases to amaze me
day after day they somehow manage to screw up in ways unimaginable
truely , tmnet should be made posterchild .... for '101 ways how not to run a company'

tmnet is to be blamed for not having a contingency plan / not getting off their asses and finding alternatives routes tho

but yea , leave this in the other thread

its because nihilium refuses to whine like the rest of the horde guilds and instead chooses to do something about it
other horde guilds just b**** endlessly about blessings and fear ward lawl

btw horde worlds firsts - cthun and KT
the rest of naxx / aq was between d&t and risen
i would hardly consider that 'mostly'

*added* speaking of which , im sure ppl remember under what circumstances horde got the world 1st cthun

im not sure what the current statistics are , but last i checked , there were only 2 horde guilds which killed KT , 1 of which has been disbanded due to exploiting
so make of it what you will =)
