raykor.6723 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I have absolutely nothing against raiding and would like to run them sometime in the future. But for now, I would just like to do enough to complete the raid masteries.I've only been back a few months with just a single character in full ascended gear. Eventually I will do my homework and put together a good meta raid build. But, again, for the time being I simply want enough time raiding to complete the raid mastery line.Is this a realistic plan? Can I simply join a PUG raid group (if that even is a thing) and with a less-than-meta build complete the raid mastery line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you can find a guild that does raid training runs without making you change your character build / gear first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffball.8307 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 You only need to complete a single instance and to unlock all the masteries, then you can do anything in HoT to fill the exp. I am not a raider, but there are some apparently trivially easy instances where you don't even fight bosses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onevstheworld.2419 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Join a pug escort. The boss itself is easy... the escort mechanics are the challenge, and they are well documented online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killermanjaro.5670 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 I would say it's worth copying your post and putting it up on the Raids forum bit as well. When I asked for similar advice to unlock the track a while ago I posted in the raid section on the old forums and got lots of replies and messages from helpful raiders who offered to help get me through a boss to unlock the track (some offered for free, others for gold). I took up a free offer of help and that weekend was helped to kill VG really quickly by a group of kind experienced raiders.(I'm told escort events are easier than VG, but the squad that helped (probably carried) me through made VG pretty easy!)Other than that I know there are guilds out there who specialise in training people/helping people do their first raid, so tracking one of those down might be a good idea.Good luck!

TheQuickFox.3826 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I joined and completed an Escort raid group, just to unlock the Raids mastery tree, and filled it with normal HoT mastery points and experience. (I'm not a raid player, just needed to unlock the mastery tree. This one was quite doable.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
