Maybe it's dumb, maybe it's an interesting problem to work around.

Though the anti-fun team never let "unintended but harmless side-effect" stop them.<br /><br />@Anonymous: Good find there. Thanks. It looks like the raids where there is an attunement check, as with the elf and orb, they bypass the raid group check.Klepsacovichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07915576683657376929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-52509777004372871322012-04-09T09:58:50.834-05:002012-04-09T09:58:50.834-05:00It was only as recently as patch 4.3 when undocume...It was only as recently as patch 4.3 when undocumented change made allowing access to MC/BWL without being in a raid group.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-11151266784506582432012-04-09T09:30:11.834-05:002012-04-09T09:30:11.834-05:00Yeah, not a fan.

I was all fired up to try Kara, but the tower rejected my solo ways.<br /><br />...Rades has an article up where you can use a dummy free account to make a raid group and bypass that, though. Dumb, but I'll probably try it. It really is a silly gating mechanic.<br /><br />http://www.orcisharmyknife.com/2012/03/benefits-of-making-trial-account-and.htmlTeshhttp://tishtoshtesh.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
