Oooh, I’m in OZ so no Blizzcon for me (yet..) but I’m awaiting my virtual ticket! Reading all the tweets from you guys at blizzcon is getting me excited! I wish I could have a breakfast pre-meet too! It’s 3am here, so I might settle for some cereal and green tea and pretend!
I hope you have an awesome time Beru! Would love to see pictures!

I’m all for a healer meetup. I’m not going to the actual convention, so I’m free most of the time.

I’d love to participate in a healer meetup! Unfortunately, I can only be in the Anaheim area on Friday. I’m not even actually going to Blizzcon, I just live close enough to make a day trip and hang out with internet people. =D I’ll keep an eye out for the date/time of the healer meet up!

Blizzcon tickets can be really hard to get. It seems great luck to be able to go to 5 of them. Did you have to Ebay? I missed out last year and decided that the live stream would have to do, and I was very happy with the coverage. But yeah, if I had a lot of blogging friends I could completely see why you’d want to catch up.

I really doubt they will remove 25 mans though. I think people exaggerate the difficulty differences between 10 and 25 man a bit – there was massive opposition to this split back in WotLK days, and yet Blizzard (to me) have done a superb job in balancing the difficulty of the two, with only an exception or two. I raid in both 10 and 25 man guilds.

Interesting prediction… I’m not creative enough to think of what they might do, but I’m sure they’ll do something to address the recruiting problems everyone seems to be facing. I think adding guild rep has exacerbated the problem somewhat, as people may not be happy where they are, but now might be reluctant to switch guilds as they’d have to regrind the rep.

I have never been to a blizzcon and likely never will, but it does sound like a lot of fun!! Looking forward to any pics and commentary

Oh hellooo,

I would love to have a healer meetup thing! Saturday might be easiest, since like you I’m planning on not doing as much that day.

Can’t wait!

I would love for them to reduce and have one raid size. Im in a 10 man guild who does run 2 ten mans. Ofcorse like normally in a 2 10 man guild the 2nd group usually runs pretty far behind, and normally the 10 man raids are easily way overtuned or just really easy…Heroic Domo anyone : p . However Im not sure the 25mans would like this change at all. You would deffintly have a big split and lots of things would change within 10 and 25 man guilds. But this wouldnt be the first time blizzard has done this. So im keeping my fingers crossed. Nice Post, and I wish I was able to join you and go over lots of druid discussion on the upcoming expantion.
