I have been trying so hard to get a group for Oculus its the only one left in the meta achievment!
It really makes no sense that its so hard to get a group for Oculus. I can probibly run the whole instance in about 35 mins - I did it on my paladin!
It really doesn't make sense, its not even that hard! personally i think that people are just getting lazy!

Its not laziness... its the fact taht around 80% of people, if not more have had a terrible experiance in there.
There is always a first time, but people seem to screw up the drake flying a lot in there, first time or not, you essentially have to learn a whole new skill (if you havent been to EoE) which for the lesser able players, may be a challenge.
Also the bosses actually require a bit of thinking in here, 1st boss maybe not, but 2nd will wipe your group if the tunnel vision, w/o a shama on 3rd boss you're kiting, never nice on a boss fight, and the 3rd one is fought on previously mentioned causing all the previously stated issues.
Why would you run something which carries these "risks" when you could go blitz through nexus in 25 minutes = )
If you do wanna go, you need patience to talk members through handling the drakes, explaining tactics and what not... its one of the more "difficult" Hc's, basically a scrub check, but hey, Hc's are such an AoE fest walk over nowadays there are many scrubs playing in them (i'm talking about dps who do less than 1.8K dps whilst standing in the bad stuff)

Personally, I avoid this heroic along with Old Kingdom as much as I can...mostly because the drakes are annoying as hell in Oculus.

I'm just annoyed at all of the blue dragons when you are flying up after the first boss. People go all over the place, agro dragons, and end up dying because there's a big blue drake shooting laser beams at them from behind and they can't see.
And the last boss fight sucks.

Everyone is terrible at Oculus for some reason. Terrible even by typical pug standards. And you've said the other problem yourself. 35 minutes? Who wants to spend that long in a heroic?

Magnerz stop saying Scrub in every other word since you seem to think you are something, which i'm sure you are not.

I love doing Oculus when it's organised. When me and my mates did all of the Oculus achievements for our red proto's over the course of 3 days it was fun. Make it Count was so easy.
PuGing this place is a death wish.
Organized groups is ez mod.

It's because it's a crap instance. Gnomer isn't hard, yet there's few people that voluntarily go.
Occulus stinks. Lock thread.
