Congratulations!
Kind of surprised that SR Basin and SR Lurkers aren't cooperating more on the high end content, but it's good to see both communities making headway.
If I was putting together a strategy for Onyxia Alliance side, I think I would fear ward only the MT (bugged version or non-bugged version nomatter - just extra mana for re-application). A lot of guilds specifically tell the rest of the raid NOT to wear shadow resist items - might as well take advantage of a free aggro reduction for all but the MT. With a little familiarity (takes a while to register the ground shaking that goes on), running backwards a split second before it triggers is quite easy to time.
Tremor totems will counter fear, but only after some aggro has been reduced. Had my first shot at MTing Onyxia last week on Tich and getting & holding aggro during the phase 2-3 transition is real squirrely!
I in no way think that Alliance is "easy mode", however. You have to deal with pallies ninjaing all the good warrior gear. :P
