What raids could my group pull off?

[Mind Melter]

<DIV>I have 8 level 70 characters (good players) in my guild and was wondering what (if any) raids there were that we could pull off?</DIV> <DIV>Back in the day we did Angler, Mines, etc but haven't looked into anything new in awhile.</DIV> <DIV>Any suggestions would be great!</DIV> <DIV>Thx!</DIV>

I dont know if there is any T7 content you could do with that many. Not sure if theres any T6 you could do with that many even tho they are all 70.   Lockjaw in SS would be about the only one I could think of. You could try the T6 raid zones, but the mobs in there still hit for a truckload even with a full 70 raid, the AEs can be devastating and they have lots of HP. Might have to consider getting a few more people in your guild. There is crab and xuxliaos roost in fallen dynasty that you might be able to do with a couple more people since they are x2 raids.

You could do T6 raids easily enough with those 8.Guardian, Templar, Defiler, Conjuror, SK, Warlock(gets moderate) in 1 group.Inquistor all alone in the other "group."Could easily clear Gates of Ahket Ahken, Court of Al'Afaz fairly easily, Poet's Palace: The Return could be managed up to a point. While DMP and PoS would be, very hard to do.For T7 raids, you could easily do Ascent of the Awakened x2 area(although not much loot drops there), and that's about it for real raiding.

Even Lockjaw wich is pritty much as close as they get to 1 room instances (angler in T5) would be hard to do, because I beleave you have to kill the 3 heroic Nameds with in a certain time of each other in order to release Lockjaw, and they are not very close together.</P>

Courts the trash is nonagro until you ruin your faction.</div>

<DIV>Almost all trash mobs in Gates of Ahket Ahken are grey to lvl 70s so you can clear the zone fairly quick moving from named to named. In Courts of Al'Afaz almost all trash mobs are non-agro, until you've cleared it a couple of times, so pretty easy to skip those too (during the first few runs at least). If you have never done those zones before it will take some time to find your way around and figure out the different named encounters, but you can certainly do them. Both zones are a lot of fun and drop some pieces of loot that are still very much worth the effort.</DIV>

<DIV>Cool, thx for the tips!  Is there an access quest needed for Gates or Courts?  </DIV>

Court of Al'Afaz shares the same zone layout and entrance as Shimmering Citadel, while Gates of Ahket Ahken shares the same zone layout and entrance as Living Tombs.

Vraksakin and Pantrilla contested would be doable with that setup. I'd say all of the Phylactery contested except the beholder too. Although, if you only have 8 people and are looking for raid content I'm guessing mobilizing for a contested isn't an option.

You could very easily farm the X2 and X4 areas of Silent City in order to access the Fountain of Life.  I'm not sure if you could actually complete the fountain zone with 8, though. <div></div>
