Are you guys doing HM week 1 Brel?

I just watched the vid and I'm already exhausted, good ol' finishing up of 18 raids by Friday is over. Thinking of saving my sanity/time of not pugging this on HM week 1 on a 1703, especially with the stupid item being locked to week 2, or doing HM G1 and NM G2 perhaps.

What are your thoughts?
