Ok, first off: My guild is trying to progress into a raiding guild. We've got 13 x level 70's and 13 x level 60's.
Lately we've been pounding on LBRS and UBRS and want to strat getting to the higher ones.
We've gotten about 20 of us attuned to Molten Core and gave it a shot last night. Boy, rude awakening.
Here are my questions:
1) Everyone tells me that MC (and most of the Azeroth raids) have been lowered to 10-man raids. Is that correct? If so, does it change the mob levels, etc when I take more than 10 into the instance? We enetered MC as a 12-man raid group after being told its now a 10-man instance. Does it change when we go in as 10 or 11+?
2) All the info, guides, and walkthrough's I've read all show the tactics for 40-people. Does anyone know of a guide that's been updated since?
3) We tried to freeze trap and frost trap the mobs, are they immune to it? The 3 hunters we had in the group were level 60, 65, and 66, are they just being resisted due to their "lower" levels?
Any help would be appreciated.
We're probably take a run at Zul'Gurub first to further train the members to learn tactics per class until we get better at it. :-)

1. no, still 40 man.
2. no.
3. They're probably immune and will need to be tanked.

The 40 man raids are still 40 man - including Blackwing Lair, Onyxia, Molten Core, and Naxx. The 10 man raids that you can still 10 man are UBRS and MAYBE strat. The new raids that are 10 man are Khara, Zul'aman. The 25 mans are Black Temple, Gruul's Lair, Mags, Serpentine Caverns, The Eye, Mt. Hijal.

they might be 40man raids for lvl 60's but you should be able to do to them with less people if you have lvl 70's, i know we went back to zul'gurub (spelling) and did a few bosses with only 6 people
most of the trash mobs in MC arent crowd controllable.
also you might want to think about having a go at karazhan, if you can get all your lvl 70's attuned you should end up with reasonable enough gear to be able to do the first boss at least, especially if most of them have a few things like the tailoring epics or a couple of reputation reward epics. the only thing you need to do the horseman is a hunter to help trap some trash on the way there and a priest to shackle some since they are undead
the only other thing for karazhan to make it easier is 3 healers and 2 tanks
good luck raiding :)

IMO you should be pounding through the 5-mans in Outlands to get geared and keyed for Kara. The gear in the Azeroth dungeons is significantly inferior to stuff in Outlands and is not really worth your time. You will need pretty good gear to progress into the 25-man raids in Outlands but you can start in Kara with just decent level 70 gear.
Have your level 60's run the Hellfire, Coilfang, and Auchindon instances sprinkling in a 70 or 2 to make it easier and all of you should be geared and keyed for Kara in a short time.
Good luck.

presumable your doing pre bc raids for fun, that being said the 40mans can be pretty well 20manned with 70's now a days if not less, i 7manned zg a couple months back for a laugh.
but if your looking to outland raids now since your guild has 13 70's karazhan is the start, but you need moderate gear to begin with. if you need help knowing the basic reqs for each class/spec feel free and i can list the lot off easy enuf, but its just basic estimates. some people will argue no matter what you say so its just a general idea for how much you need 2do good.

Interesting note: Molten Core has been 3-manned in its entirety.

Well at level 60 I could solo LBRS, most of UBRS, Scholo and Strat, rattlegore and baron are the suck solo! I LoL at level 70s that cant solo strat now.
with that said I am betting someone could do ZG solo now, maybe if I get bored I will try it, though with a 20+ gold repair bill it will not be my daily activity lmao.
I am going to say definately cant solo AQ though because those guys cleve hard...though maybe I will try that to while I am a glutton for punishment lol.

ZG has been 2 manned many times, I see more and more people with the Razzashi Raptor mount, and most of them are druids >.<
