I didn't do Molten Core when it popped, thinking I had
inadequate gear. I later avoided it due to the widespread
reports of idiocy and wipefests.

But today I figured - what the heck - there's probably
a lot of people like me, and this is our last chance
(I think it actually runs till next reset).

So... I joined it in LFR, and we ran it in about two
and half hours. Wiped 3 times, always on trash. All
the bosses were one-shotted.

Yes, there were a few idiots, who got kicked. Someone
said it was their 30th attempt.

...and now I have my cute orange puppy :-)

Alas, no. The mount.

The helmet is kind of useless to my lock engineer.

Nice one! I might have another shot this week at some point, completed
it in the first week but not since after all the reports of disaster
groups, hopefully others will be thinking it's the last chance so some
decent groups will be happening again :-)

Ran it last night, seemed like a disaster at the start, several
failures on trash (core hound packs are fun!), and a bunch of people
who'd clearly never been there at all (can't really understand why
they wouldn't even go and solo the original, guess everyone's
different!), but got through the place in about two hours as it got a
lot smoother after the first while. Enjoyed that!
