Rupta's Random Raids: Sat Dec 12

Hello all! I'm making this post in anticipation of 1 wing of ICC being released. Assuming that ICC is up and running, and the bosses are attemptable, I'd like to try our hand at the instance in our weekend GKP.

I'm going to need to post pone the start time of this particular raid due to IRL things I need to take care of prior, but I may run this raid later than the current time in the future depending on how well the ICC Gkp's tend to do. So expect this raids invites to be started at 2:30.

As for rules and requirements!

I'm expecting you to be bringing your best ToC 25 / ToGC 10 geared character, as we don't have a bunch of "over geared" players to carry you through initially.

I'm expecting you to also doing some prior research on the boss fights ahead.

I'm expecting you to not do what ^ tells you to do, and to at the very least not afk when I'm explaining the strat to the best of my abilities.

Be PvE geared and PvE specced. I understand the occassional spell power / penetration gem in place of a spell power / spirit gem for a piece you use in arenas.. But I will not understand misc honor / arena gear if it's not something that is actually worth using over pve gear. (Example, 2200 Rated Caster Dagger, sure! Bad Example, Deadly Melee Hit Ring, no!)

I'm starting this event early, and will most likely do calendar invites in game in an attempt to recruit a stronger / richer raid for earlier runs. I'd like to settle who my 2 tanks and 5-6 healers are ASAP.

Tanks

Bartlett(Nuitarin)

Diaphoretic/Sadeness (If Dia is there he'll tank you dps!)

Healers

Salmonmus

Goru (Can dps)

None

None

None

None

Flasks should be used, and anyone that wants to bring some flasks to peddle them to the random pugs that didn't bring them be my guest. Please post here, assuming you meet the requirements, as to what spec(s) you're willing to perform. Thank you ahead of time for the help, gl with your loots!

Morgyn- Disc Priest

Might be out

Nuitarin — Sat, 12/12/2009 - 09:33

I might not be on for this. I think I'm going to be traveling during raid time so I might not be online for this raid.

Still some time left to sign

Disrupter — Fri, 12/11/2009 - 20:57

Still some time left to sign up!

I'd like to bring my druid if

PoTink — Fri, 12/11/2009 - 15:17

I'd like to bring my druid if you have a spot. If not, that's fine too. I can heal or dps. My gear score is higher for the healing set, but it's whatever you think would help the raid most.

I have my shaman if you need

pulga — Fri, 12/11/2009 - 09:45

I have my shaman if you need healing support too. He might not be as geared as my DK, but he's almost there.

I signed up already, but I'm

Tankard — Thu, 12/10/2009 - 19:15

I signed up already, but I'm not seeing myself on that healers list (Salmonmüs). Tankard's gear isn't quite up to snuff, but Sal's averaging about 230 now.

I want to take a stab at

Tankard — Sat, 12/12/2009 - 04:22

I want to take a stab at this, but the new patch has some problems for me that is making WoW almost unplayable. My toon gets stuck moving in some random direction.

If I end up in this state in the middle of a boss fight it would be bad and it's happening every few minutes for me.

I'm sorry Tankard I hadn't

Disrupter — Fri, 12/11/2009 - 06:23

I'm sorry Tankard I hadn't realized that you wanted to go on your disc priest based on your initial signup. I'm fail at remembering everyones alts, and knowing which one based solely on them signing up.

We're lacking slightly in the guildy healer department, as for tanks we have guildies, and possibly a ToC 25 Heroic prot paladin from Epidemic (possibly, assuming no). And it's looking like a strong crew of dps and healers are inc.

So please, if you want to come, post here so that I can make sure I don't over recruit too much and not have a spare spot for you, thanks!

I'm signing up as Sadeness

carno — Thu, 12/10/2009 - 03:43

I'm signing up as Sadeness for tanking (or dps). I'll need to get some enchants if I need to DPS. For tank I've got t9 and crafted 258 chest lined up as soon I have gems for them (in case your checking out armory).

Shameless Bump, if we want this run to succeed we need more than what we've got!

Taken from

pulga — Tue, 12/08/2009 - 12:14

Taken from Saedo:

/Lord-Marrowgar

Phase 1:

2-3 Tanks, Shahraz stacking soaking style
Fire bad, spread out
Kill ice blocks, heal people inside too
Kill boss

Phase 2:

Every 45-60 seconds
Whirlwinds hurt. Puts bleeds. Think of Leotheras
Fire still bad
No new ice blocks in Normal mode

/Lady-Deathwhisper

Phase 1:

M'uru like
Split melee on 2 sides of room
Green puddles bad to stand in (death and decay)
Sheep/CC mind controlled people
Fanatics need to be tanked, magic dps best on them
Adherants can be kicked, physical dps best on them
They can all explode, be ready to run
Otherwise, burn boss down

Phase 2:

Tank and spank
Aggro reset, not tauntable so ranged back off!
MC and DnD still happens
Ghosts will follow you and explode, run the fuck away

/Gunship-Battle

Get your jetpacks!
3 Cannoneers, put 3 worst (melee) dps on them. ;p
Spam 1 til gauge is about full (but not completely full), press 2, repeat.
Defenders will have a tank and mostly aoe ranged dps
Attackers will have a tank occupy Saurfang, but not kill, high avoidance
Stacking buff may force attackers to evacuate the ship for 20 sec to wait for buff to fall off
Rest of attackers handle adds
Plate dps preferred on Axethrowers
When Battle Mage appears, switch to focus ASAP

/Deathbringer-Saurfang

Everything he does give him Blood Power
Every 100 Blood Power he gives a Mark to a person, massive constant damage for rest of fight
If that person dies, he heals some
Goal is to spread out and minimize being hit by anything that gives him Blood Power
Adds come, can't aoe, can't use shadow spells, can't let them touch you. Slow them, kite them, focus kill them

Those are the 30 second strat for each fight.
