People always assume if you have a less than “ideal” class you won’t get picked up for a group. That’s utter BS. Often it’s just hard enough to find people in the right level range for the slots needed.

I was tanking spore king with a 57 pal the other day, something I thought was impossible (torpor is amazing). I was eventually scampering to find a replacement and would have taken ANYONE 57+. Likewise we had dps rotating in and out over the 5 hours. We needed a monk to pull (in this scenario) but the rogue could have been swapped with a ranger. Kills would have been a bit slower but the damage champ of the group was a hasted charmed frog from the jail.

By biggest annoyance is that almost every damn mob ran and I had to root them (or try) to keep from wiping. We had to camp twice to clear aggro because a nearly-dead shroom walked through the wall in the teleport room we were fighting in. Yea...I’d trade a kidney for snare in that group. Had to split tank two reavers more than once. Flame Lick isn’t a straight trade for monk mitigation but mana was never the problem.

It’s a long grind of a game. Play what you want. If you are a hardcore raider do what the guild needs the most if you want to be altruistic. If you consistently can’t kill the raid targets it’s likley not 100% because Steve won’t stop playing his ranger.
