What should you Be at before Kara...

[Zarimus]

Hey, just wondering about what spell damage, HP, Mana, ext....should you be at before you run Kara. I've been told that soon as you get blued up you're ready to roll. But there are a couple Items I have/had that are green but are better than some blues I've gotten.

Thanks...

Being 'blued-out' is simply a guideline and (in my opinion) a showing that you have dedicated your time to do the work necessary to begin end-game content. It's really a game of numbers. Is this better than that or is that better than this sort of thing. If you have certain green pieces you believe are better than some of the blue items you have obtained, great, use them to the fullest. As far as bonus damage is concerned I can't recall at exactly what point I was at when I did Karazhan. I've only ran it a few times and didn't use it as a source of gear acquisition. Hit me up in game and we can go over the finer points of magery a bit more in-depth.

Definatly agree that it's a good idea to work a bit twards Kara and all Raids above. Heh, that's why I went after my Master's Key, and I'm actually blued up right now with the Exception of 1 trinket. I have my Blood Gem but Been grinding like crazy for a trinket in Auch and TK dongeons. Was on Vacation last week and naturally never got the blasted thing, LOL!

Mainly I'm a bit worried about my HP, lol Talking to people about Kara, watching Vids and researching I've noticed the Damage output on some of the boss's.....it makes me shiver, lol! I realize though that the brunt of the damage is going to be taken by the tank(s). But taking my eye off Omen threat might be insta-death for us Mages...
