Makes farming for gold that much more menial. I figure i miss potentially 10-20 gold and/or mats per run when that happens just from loot left behind from mobs not killed.

And, when I get this Pally up to 80 - and get her geared for healing - I'll try and push the whole run, even if I get more badges/hour by not doing them, because I care. .-= TwilliK´s last blog ..<a href="http://arcenvoy.com/2009/12/29/new-years-resolutions/" rel="nofollow">New Years Resolutions</a> =-.

Even if I have an instant pop as a tank, I don't really see them as optional bosses.

I'll get my 2 (or whatever number of bosses we skipped) badges in a next random heroic, no biggie. if I'm tanking and we get an instance where you can skip stuff, I ask the group first, since i'm the one at the front of the group, doing pulls (I better be, I hate when dps decides to be oh so helpful and do the pulls for me, while I'm waiting on a CD for couple of seconds, or waiting o na healer to finish drinking). if I'm on my main and the only reason I'm running a heroic this day is to get just a touch closer to my t10, my favorite random is the instance in progress with only one boss left :P but since most of the time, I'm running instance becasue I'm enjoying them, whatever happens - happens.

I go with whatever the group decides on. I like running heroics where nobody needs the blue drops, because that means I have a chance of picking up gear for my "pretty spec" that would otherwise be going to another class if they needed it. If it's not pretty - well, another shard. Generally, unless I’m on a time crunch, I don’t care whether bosses are skipped or not. I go with whatever the group decides on.

I down grade the emblems all the way to Heroism and buy uncut gems. I am getting 150g for each mixed color gem, which means I make 15g per Emblem of Triumph. Probably not the fastest way to make gold but it isn't too bad either and most of all it is a nice break from farming saronite or herbs.

I'd rather skip bosses, but if anyone in the group wants them, 5 more minutes won't kill me. On my less geared alts, I'll beg for a full clear, but I won't whine unnecessarily if people don't want to do it.

My priest would only need frost emblems ofc, but I have 4 level 80s and various professions, so I use main's triumph emblems for crusader orbs + craft good gear for alts. If people decide to skip bosses, I'm ok with that, but I prefer complete runs. I like clearing all bosses on all my characters.
