While I have done it 5 times now it is by no means a one shot. The fight is about more than just stats and skill. You have to get past the random factors. I have seen a lava strikes take out four players in the mater of seconds. I have seen anything from a very few adds spawn to so many I could not even see the add tank. Face it the difference between a shiny new mount and a wipe could be one lava wall placement.</span></span></span></p> <p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; border: none; padding: 0in; font-style: normal; font-weight: medium; widows: 2; orphans: 2"> <span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size:100%;">I have two benchmarks on how I gage how well an attempt is going.</span></span></span></p> <ol> <li><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; border: none; padding: 0in; font-style: normal; font-weight: medium; widows: 2; orphans: 2"> <span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Did we kill the first drake before or within five seconds of the second one landing?</span></span></span></p> </li><li><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; border: none; padding: 0in; font-style: normal; font-weight: medium; widows: 2; orphans: 2"> <span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Did anyone die by the time the third drake land?</span></span></span></p></li></ol> <p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; border: none; padding: 0in; font-style: normal; font-weight: medium; widows: 2; orphans: 2"> <span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size:100%;">We changed one small thing and since then we have killed the first drake every time before the second one lands. Any player that uses a chance on cast trinket simply did not do any DPS until the first drake landed. Why proc your trinket with a 45 second cool down when you need to kill a target in the next 55 Seconds?</span></span></span></p> <p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; border: none; padding: 0in; font-style: normal; font-weight: medium; widows: 2; orphans: 2"> <span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size:100%;">A lot random things can kill players during the fight. Many can be avoided but some times an add spawns and will hit a healer at the same time a lava strike comes down. Goodbye healer. We got pretty good at not standing in the red circle I think we had more trouble since they changed the color to blue. When I see blue scroll up from my feet I just think I am getting some manna. It took a few tries before I finally started to run out of it without having to think.</span></span></span></p> <p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; border: none; padding: 0in; font-style: normal; font-weight: medium; widows: 2; orphans: 2"> <span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Doing 2 Drakes up should be very easy for your guild. If you can get to the point that 2 Drakes feel almost boring then you are ready for 3 Drakes. No reason to even try it more than a few times if you have not done 2 Drakes up. If your players have to think about where to move for lava walls or when it is time to aoe adds then you will not be ready for 3 Drakes.</span></span></span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; border: none; padding: 0in; font-style: normal; font-weight: medium; widows: 2; orphans: 2"><br /></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none"><br /></p>Diermakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09772318805582631416noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8254820316512054488.post-90268794300228206112009-02-16T00:04:00.000-08:002009-02-16T00:06:10.701-08:00No Job Why Not?No job so might as well blog about the closest thing to work I have.
