10-man TOC - Short and sweet

A short post-

The guild I am in had a recent surge of new recruits, and we gathered our top players and took on TOC 10. Most of us had never seen the encounters, except maybe on a video, or had read about it. In 2.5 hours, we had cleared all five bosses. We wiped along the way, we developed strats for our group, had a lot fun. We especially enjoyed one-shotting the pvp-style encounter, with lots of cc executed quite well, for a group that rarely PVPs. It was great and the group had an enjoyable time. I wouldn't call it hard or challenging, just fun, which is a departure from the difficulties we have had in Ulduar (we have yet to defeat General Vezaxx or even see Yogg).

I am perfectly fine with this arrangement. I log on, do my bit (I was tanking! Fun fun!) work with my guild mates to overcome the encounters, loots passed out, good times are had. In that respect, the coliseum is a success for me. I look forward to clearing it again this week. The gears we earn might let us tackle Ulduar and finish it before Icecrown. We will also be better geared for the heroic versions of the new 5-mans.
