After 8 attempts I finally did it.  Yes, you are right.  I can form a 
group by the traditional way.  But that limits my gearing progression as 
we will raid as soon as possible.
I remember I seriously struggled with the gold medal in MoP.  Arcane is 
almost forbidden in Proving Grounds so I used my frost spec.  Round 4 
and 7 on gold really tickled my temper.  I couldnt even get past round 4 
on Endless. -.-

I shine in raids on three classes.  But here I have to get past a part 
of the game that has NOTHING to do with dungeons or raids!  And I suck 
at Proving Grounds...
