There are still plenty of spots free for next week's SSC raids.  Please signup if you haven't already.

HUGE grats to all of us for another guild first.  From what I could tell, everyone was on the mark and focused.  Only 5 deaths (all 3 of us rogues) total for the full 8 minute duration of that encounter - healers had everyone topped off nearly the whole fight.  Tanks had all adds under control each time they spawned.  8 folks with dps 600+.

Amazing if you ask me.

Awesome job :) Everyone was paying attention and did a great job. And we got nice lootz!

To you rogues and melee types: Sometimes you were out of line of sight when you were underwater, so it was tough to heal you sometimes.

I know I got plenty of heals while underwater as well as up top.  I got 1-shotted by an add (they hit hard) when the mob decided to smack me before I had a chance to vanish - was kinda funny actually (full health to dead in a split second).  Dunno about the other deaths, but I just found it funny that us 3 rogues were the first 3 to die.

Kaj,

I have healed that fight and I can tell you from my experience it is hard.  Much of the raid is out of range or los isn't there.  I think that is one of the big reasons why we won last night - you guys did an outstanding job working as a team to keep us up.  Trust me - those 5 or 6 folks you healed would be dead by the second phase if you weren't doing your job well.

And I struggle with getting out of the water too.

That's why we had the healers spread out around the ring- if someone was out of LOS for you, they were probably in LOS for another healer. If the people on the island by you, the tank tanking an add near you, the main tank, and the melee that are in your LOS are alive, you're doing exactly what you're supposed to!

Yeah, you were busy typing "Focus" in chat at the time.  :D  What helped me most was not worrying much about my lolprotdps and concentrating on not dying and being in the right place when the add showed up. But he couldn't resist smacking that rogue who was standing right there....

Yea that is really a melee unfriendly fight which sucks. Its also a pain for healers with people sometimes getting trapped under the islands and stuff too. Its somewhat nice for ranged dps because so long as someone is in melee range, you cant pull aggro as ranged, hehe, just like Murmur. We did really well though guys, all night, every try went well, was a steady improvement and we adapted to any problems and got it to work each time.

We need to help get our new members Kara keyed and geared up so they can join us more often too in the future runs =)

Thanks Shadow for leading us through last night.
It was nice after bags and boots full of fish we finally downed him.
I find this one of my favourite fights being melee in the middle. If I jump in right near Lurker on the spout I can just keep hitting him underwater (it's nice to be plate). If I stay on his side I land far enough away from where the adds spawn so the tanks can pick them up.
Then he just kicks me back onto land- so even I don't get lost.  It must be harder for the islanders though.
The only negative is that he doesn't drop any badges- i think he should.

All 25-man bosses will drop 2 badges (i think) in patch 2.4!

And thanks Shadow :)
