OK. So I am more or less maxed out on eq for my prot pally, shy of getting into ICC or frost items. Looking for upgrades rawr pointed me to a Splintered Door of the Citadel. So I have been trying to get this upgraded shield, which is really a very minor upgrade but it will help my GS some to get into ICC runs, 5002 atm. Issues I have with HoR:
Granted, this shield is only a small upgrade over what I have but raid leaders expect high GS, forget everything else, from a tank so these few upgrade points will help me get into ICC for a better shield. On the upside I am only 10 EoF away from the Sentinel's Winter Cloak
- Queuing as a specific dungeon takes forever compared to randoms. Randoms are under 60 seconds, HoR is up to 20 minutes.
- Once you do get in it seems all the DPS are warriors and pallys with low DPS. Four out of four runs my tank was 1st or 2nd on recount (beat by a mage one run) with 2100ish,
- The shield is a low drop rate, I read somewhere 16%
- Those warriors and pallys I mentioned above ... I have seen a couple drop after Marwyn so tell me they would not have needed the shield if it dropped.
- I have yet to finish HoR because of the low DPS. People, if you can't do more DPS then the tank do NOT queue for that instance!!! (healers are exempt from this comment
