Grats guys. Interested in hearing just how important having everyone in FrR gear was. Is it a game breaker if you don't have it?

We started with most of the raid over 300 FrR, but then ran into the enrage timer. On the kill everyone bar tanks had removed 1-2 FrR items.

Most people were wearing 3 pieces, but we hit the enrage timer due to low DPS, so everybody stripped down to 2 (except tanks). We had about 30 seconds to spare at the end.

The game breaker is not FR, but having at least 1 caster. However there were enough near-deaths that frost-resistance is definitely beneficial. As we have it, we might as well use it.

The other essential ingredient is tank swapping as soon as the tank loses his buffet stacks, basically not going over 3-4.

The new positioning helped, and the MT has to dance left to right when she does blistering cold (the suck in move) or she walks forward, which is rather annoying.
