Re: ZA Bear Run Tips
i would drop a healer for a hunter (tranq shot on halazzi) and switch out one of the tanks for a pallytank (akilzon gauntlet, letting an entire side of birds out on Jan, halazzi gauntlet, etc...).
You should be destro (i didn't bother to armory you, but the saying is true 'if you need any of the gear in ZA then you probably aren't the best candidate for sucessful bear runs'). i don't know much about mages (they are food vending machines as far as I can tell) but I didn't think frost was their dps spec. I could be wrong. the point I am trying to make is that everyone needs their best damage spec because obviously time is of the essence. last i was aware, the benefits of curse of elements to you (at the loss of a damage curse) and the two (frost, really?) mages do not outweigh the damage you should be putting out as a sb nuker.
don't stop to loot anything except your badges (use group loot on the boss drops. again, if you need it you probably aren't the best choice for going on a bear run). that means if you see people getting hex sticks or whatever, they are wrong and just slowing you down (by whatever fraction of a second).
start with eagle and work your way around to bear then dragonhawk then lynx. pot, bandage, flask, oil as if it were a progession night for your guild in SWP or BT or whatever. even on trash.
and make sure everyone on the run is as comitted as you are. i understand RL > WoW (so they say, anyway), but people need to focus for those four bosses (go get your red bulls, snort your meth, potty break, feed the pets, deal with any potential spouse aggro beforehand).
