Time for a new raid thread for organising the new raid location.

First post:

Is tonight's raid (Dec 1st) going to have to be cancelled?

Bolts · « **Reply #1 on:** December 01, 2011, 03:52:12 PM »

with 3 signed up i would say yes

I will update the message of the day etc with details so now that people are returning to the game can see were raiding again and need those slots filled.

Hi Guys

We are going into the Dragon Soul tonight and are missing 2 Healer/DPS If any of you would liek a peek with us that would be great.

I'm looking at maybe using the Raid Finder to have the first go so you wouldnt be saved to the instance for a normal run and i do know allot of you have good geared Alts to that would be fine to bring.

So please if your interested just say on here or the DE forum and invites are @ 8 game time

cheers

I would but i am out tonight i am afraid - maybe next time

Dar · « **Reply #4 on:** December 02, 2011, 11:22:11 AM »

I would really love to, but do note that I'm already saved to the LFR-version on my hunter, mage and priest (full pvp set healing, that says something about the difficulty, no?) I don't think I have any other toon that has the required iLvL for it, so I will only be available for you for the normal version of the raid

bearhugger · « **Reply #5 on:** December 02, 2011, 11:37:00 AM »

Ok i have 1 dps just from DE signed so Dar do you think Trip will be able to heal ok? If we need him?

Dar · « **Reply #6 on:** December 02, 2011, 11:43:34 AM »

Well like I said, he is full pvp geared, so even though I ended up second / first in the LFR, I won't be topping the chart of your regular healers. But i'm sure ready to try it. Also, just remembered that you don't get saved for LFR, you just get saved for the loot, so I can still join you if you are doing that.

bearhugger · « **Reply #7 on:** December 02, 2011, 12:13:53 PM »

well we will give it a try tonight the only one who we would want is Woody but hes lost his connection for a week now but if he does make it on would it be ok to add him over you? but im guessing he will not be on still.

Dar · « **Reply #8 on:** December 02, 2011, 01:53:55 PM »

Sure thing. I'll be online tonight in case you need me.

now to stop hijacking this thread: WE need more signups for tuesday! I know it has been a while since we raided, but lets get this train going!

Blomisha · « **Reply #9 on:** December 02, 2011, 03:21:48 PM »

new raid times?

Dar · « **Reply #10 on:** December 02, 2011, 05:05:47 PM »

~~My internet just died (during the last encounter of a hc, sorry Kir!) Hoping I can get online before 20:00~~ Aand it is back, for now. Altered the raid time while I was at it.

Warning
Somehow the edit-raid button does not alter the old raid, rather creating a new one. Everyone who has signed up for the old raid will be considered signed up for the correct one, but please if you have time, re-sign yourself! (we had 4 signups, Blomisha, Crania, Delanore and Kahli)

Blomisha · « **Reply #11 on:** December 02, 2011, 06:18:25 PM »

the new one still says the same time as the first one did for me

Splishy · « **Reply #12 on:** December 02, 2011, 07:02:14 PM »

What time should the raid show?

Also regards the raid planner - I'm going to look into a fresh install of the latest version. The version we're running at present has been hacked around like god only knows what, and there are issues. That said, it's unlikely to happen before Christmas I'm afraid.

Dar · « **Reply #13 on:** December 02, 2011, 10:22:43 PM »

No hurries splish
and the raid should happen at the usual time: 20:15 i, 20:30 s

Just did 4 of the bosses with the Darths on normal. They do a lot more damage on normal compared to LFR, making them harder. However, Hagra and Morchok are still easy (Hagra if everyone gets the basic concept of not hitting ice), Yor'Sahj is a minor dps check with some RNG that can lead into severe pain (red + yellow blob = crying healers) and Warlord Zon'ozz is actually harder, requiring ball management and massive healing with cooldown management.

I advice everyone to do the LFR this week, it will not take long since the bosses in there are a serious walkover. It will introduce you into the core mechanics that you need to know for the fights, making jumping into the harder hitting normal version a lot easier. Don't be afraid of the pugs, I've done it 4 times this week, they are not that bad.

Dar · « **Reply #14 on:** December 05, 2011, 08:00:52 AM »

Alright, so I have been living in two separate worlds the last few days, trying to get as many ppl to sign up as possible for our raid on Tuesday, while also happily planning and shopping for a full day of Sinterklaas celebration with my friends on that same Tuesday. Sadly you can understand that I will have to drop out of the raid in favor of the Sinterklaas party.

This will mean we need two more for tomorrows raid, I will post on the Darths forum and will cancel / draft @ 23:30 tonight.

Bolts · « **Reply #15 on:** December 05, 2011, 09:49:35 AM »

I would be signing up however its my time to do the late shift this week

Dar · « **Reply #16 on:** December 05, 2011, 02:25:34 PM »

We have a raid!
Tanks: Daffyd and Hereforbeer
Healers: Shamdalie, Northwand and Corb
DPS: Kahli, Blomisha, Delanore, Othbreaker (Fearrock - Darthelves) and runey

Hereforbeer (calling you Jaxc from now on), you only have to tank a few bosses so make sure you have your dps set ready to use. Daffyd will be the main tank and solo tank where possible.

Don't be shy to ask Fearrock on how to do any of the first 4 bosses, He has already succesfully done them and their tactics work

For the unsleeping:
Purple >> Yellow >> Green

Remember that priority, you will need it

Daff, I know you haven;t set foot in there, but I need you to lead.

Warning
I just really want this raid to go on, that is why you are going to run with an undergeared tank. However, I really need anyone signing up for future raids to have ATLEAST 372 (LFR-minimum) ilvl. Stuff seriously hurts in there and the 5th boss is impossible without FL-equivalent gear (a hard DPS-check where EVERY dps needs to do 27.5k dps with 2 tanks doing 10k dps.)

one last thing: Don't forget to let Delanore pickpocket Hagraa before you pull her. IT enables him to get the first 2 daggers (after spending a nice chunck of money) thus increasing his and our raid's dps.

Kahli · « **Reply #17 on:** December 05, 2011, 04:36:02 PM »

So what loot shall i roll, feel bad if i roll on dps gear as that is my offspecc and Del and Daff is with their mains, and i guess when we have "full" raids ill be healing most of the time?

Dar · « **Reply #18 on:** December 05, 2011, 04:44:31 PM »

The usual rule is that you roll for the role you are drafted for, in this case for DPS. However, I see no problem in an agreement between you and the others if you wish to roll for different loot, you will have to agree that on a per-raid-basis ofc.

Fear: I can almost guarantee I still won't know what I'm doing tomorrow either so be ready with tactics
