TBC 10m for whole content

TBC 10m

Is there any way of raiding the whole TBC content just with 10 man raid?

Intro

I’ve recently build a new community out from old players and retail players who want to experience back good old days. We have just meet up for TBC Classic.

The thing here is we are not such hard-core end game focus and tbh I’m afraid of loosing retail ppl once new content is released on that game version.

I will like to be the RL of this new community (guild) and run through all the content of TBC once again, but I consider that handling 25 raid version is stressful and complex.

Question

So … can be the whole content completed by just a group of 10.
Let’s try to analyze it …

Phase 1

Raid	Type	Can be done?	Problems?
Karazhan	10	OK	—
Magtheridon	25	?	How would it be to rotate cubes?
Gruul’s Lair	25	?	Have ever been tested? Enough DPS?

Phase 2

Raid	Type	Can be done?	Problems?
SSC	25	?	Enough DPS?
TK	25	?	Dealing w/ Kaelthas

Phase 3

Raid	Type	Can be done?	Problems?
MH	25	?	Enough DPS?
BT	25	?	Enough DPS?

Phase 4

Raid	Type	Can be done?	Problems?
ZA	10	OK	—

Phase 5

Raid	Type	Can be done?	Problems?
SWP	25	?	Mu’ru

Raid Setup

So which would be the ideal 10m raid composition?
Having in account there’s only 9 clases available, one of 'em should repeat once.

I have though that the best composition will be this.

Conclusion & debate

Please share your ideas and raid setups …

Mechanics?

Just talking about raid compossition …

The more complex encounter in whole TBC is Kael’thas, where on phase 2 and 3 raid must deal with several targets at the same time. All other encounters just require a high level of DPS in order to don’t make healers run out of mana.

I mean, even Illidan himself is just a tank & spank boss where the only complex thing is to deal with both Azzinoth spaws. Onyxia has been defeated by just 2 players. And mostly all bosses in TBC are similar in complexity to Onyxia’s.

Could get a moment into TBC raiding where there’s enough DPS to only do 10m raids?

[Flock-nethergarde-keep]

If you mainly are talking about end bosses and dont take into consideration of the bosses ahead of them, I dont know.

No, you wont have enough dps to complete many encounters with 10man in a 25man enviroment, if any.
Several fights require 2 tanks, you need enough healers to keep them alive, then you need enough dps not to drain your healers mana.

I don’t think you’ll get very far though
