I'll be late

Katzeus — Mon, 05/13/2013 - 13:39

I have to stay a little late at work.  I may be on by raid time, but just an early heads up that I may not make it.  If I miss invites I'll make myself available on the waitlist if you need a fill in.

Be sure you understand the

Atar — Mon, 05/13/2013 - 08:30

Be sure you understand the information I'm about to post.  I'll be copying the nest information from Mehguy's guide.  

25-man (10 active nests, Lower NE/S/SW/NW/N - Upper
NE/S/SW/Middle/N)

  • I looked for a while for a definitive order to the nests, but I could never
    find a consistent agreement from people for the order on the nests except for
    the first 5, which like 10-man, start on the Lower NE and go clockwise.
    1. Lower NE
    2. Lower S
    3. Lower SW
    4. Lower NW
    5. Lower N/Upper NE (yes, your first 2-nest wave starts here, then periodically
      through the fight more 2-nest wave will occur)
  • From what I was reading and watching on videos (ignore the tankspot video,
    they make it too complicated.) the best way to handle the nests in 25-man is to
    do the following
    • Place 5 world markers on the main platform at the location of the lower
      nests.
    • Have 5 groups of 4 (3dps, 1 healer), assigned to EACH world marker, and each
      group will be responsible for their respective Upper and Lower nest only when
      they become active/hatch etc.  They should ALWAYS have feather stacks since ALL
      of their first nests are the lower nest, and they dont have to constantly use
      their flight stacks to go to a lot of nests, and by the time they have to go
      down to their lower nest again, their feather debuff should be long gone and
      their stacks can easily be refreshed.
  • So, for example, responsibilities should go
    • Group 1 (X) - Lower/Upper NE nests
    • Group 2 (Square) - Lower/Upper S nests
    • Group 3 (Star) - Lower/Upper SW nests
    • Group 4 (Triangle) - Lower NW/Upper Middle nests
    • Group 5 (Diamond) - Lower/Upper North nests

Awesome strat! Easy and simple to execute while we can burn our shit to the bird as well.

P.S:Ty for saying that TankSpot vid complicated things up. I thought I was getting stupid cuz I didn't understand a thing xD

Mehguy — Mon, 05/13/2013 - 13:20

Yea, their strat consisted of 3 groups of 4-5 people to go all over the room to various nests at different times.  

Having 5 groups responsible for nests will assuredly make it easier as there will be less flight time and more individual uptime for everyone on the boss.

Come prepared for more fun times!!!

Especially read up on Durumu.

Aeolyn — Thu, 05/09/2013 - 09:10

Especially read up on Durumu. The color beams don't behave like the LFR ones at all. People need to know whats up. We're doing really, really well and now is no time to relax.

We beat Tortos because everyone learned to deal with all the mechanics. Learning is step one and that part begins now for Ji-kun and Durumu. Come to raid informed.

Durumu looks like so much

Atar — Thu, 05/09/2013 - 09:21

Durumu looks like so much fun. I can't wait to get on this boss. The coordination that's required has got to be on key. This will be an amazing fight to watch unfold once everyone gets it.

Durumu has a lot of things

Aeolyn — Thu, 05/09/2013 - 09:30

Durumu has a lot of things that result in immediate death upon player error. Force of Will? You die. Flubbing the maze or getting hit by Disintigration Beam? You die. Effing up the color beams? You die. Anybody who attempts to stumble their way through it is going to get obliterrated and the difference between the folks who read up and the ones who didn't will likely be obvious.

I know we don't know who all will be there on Monday but I think we need to start discussing who will be our likely people for the Ji Kun flight team so we can start getting them straight. Flying is a bit complicated in Normal.

Be sure you've read up on

Atar — Thu, 05/09/2013 - 08:02

Be sure you've read up on Ji-Kun and Durmuru for Monday. Be prepared for a focused night as we work on some new bosses.

Atar & MAN HUG READ

Mehguy — Sun, 05/12/2013 - 11:00

Atar & MAN HUG READ ME!

Updated the Ji-Kun guide in the handbook.  Has good recommendation for how to handle the nests to make life VERY simple compared to how we handle it in 10-man.
