Preparing for 4.2

So we're officially done with our T11 goals. We've killed 12/12 normal, got the kills for all 12 in my team, and decided with the difficulty level of T11, there is no point in attempting to progress through heroic at this stage. We'll most likely come back for them in our T12 at some point.

So what's next? good question. So many options, so little time (PTR testing of firelands shows the clock is ticking).

Top prio is making sure we're 100% ready for firelands. I have 2 new raiders joining my team, and potentially one leaving. This means the newbies need to be trained up and geared (they have a lot of PvE experience, but are potentially green at PvE), and making sure they fit in with the rest of the team, both in terms of their skills, and socially.

So we're going to do a couple of farm runs to get them up to speed, and to get them some gearups (they've been farming hcs to do what they can, but nothing competes with 359 drops in the end).

Assuming there's some time left over, I'd like to take some time doing some old WOTLK achievements for the Glory of the Lich King raider Guild Edition. Currently we're just short Alone In the Darkness and Halion HC. Both should be a challenge, but with us being hideously overgeared for the encounters, they shouldn't be too hard.

The last option is just call a massive break until 4.2. Problem with that is we've had so much time off already, I think the risk here will be everyone gets out of practice (especially those that only log for raids). Also, by doing some farming to fill the last few slots of BiS gear, we'll be in the strongest possible position when 4.2 hits.
