Guardian Wurms

[picklefixer]

Checking for interest in getting a group together for skyfire Guardian Wurms on Sunday mornings around 8 am Eastern time. ( This is the most reliable time for me, that's why !)

I've never done them, so i don't know what the ideal group for them is, feel free to chime in. 4-man? 5-man? 6-man? Tank / Cleric / Slower (me) / ? / ? / ?

I have a 60 Druid for Harmony and/or 60 NO-TORP shammy for slowing.

Let's see if any early risers are interested....or late nighters from across the pond somewhere!

You require the following -

Tash (shtick) and slows
Cleric (and some way of gaining mana)
DPS
Puller (harmony is best)
Tank

An enchanter, cleric, ranger, and warrior is the best comp for this camp (assuming 60). If you have that backbone then you can fill in with whatever you want.

Good luck man hope you get your terper!

[Tupakk]

Slows is a must.

Torpor makes life easier.

Fuck a ranger unless they are a badass one.

Bard with OOS enc tash shm slows cleric Rog tank.

Anything less and you will wipe. Due to not slowing or adds dropping from the ceiling. It might not happen right away but it will get ya.

Dunno how you intend to pull with that composition?

Rangers are the best pullers for this camp. They have slow utility with weapons, and have decent DPS and their attack buffs can improve the tanks damage as well as toss on a DS for the tank. Rangers are great for this camp. :D

[Tupakk]

Harmo to start once broken Ezpz.

We’ve done this camp so many times together and used a ranger what like 3 times cause Vora wanted to come.

Don’t be silly.

[Sonderbeast]

I'd take an epic ranger over the monk any day if I was trying to minmax it. If you try to fill up the group then it doesn't matter what you put in it as long as you have the tash slows tank and dps.

[Sonderbeast]

Ranger,Monk(Tank),Cleric,Shaman

Cleric will run out of mana healing the monk with no ench. And why have a ranger if you already have a puller? Exchange the ranger for an enchanter for better DPS and tash/clarity.

[Sonderbeast]

In my experience the clerics usually had trouble keeping up if they didn't have some kind of mind candy. They were usually pocket clerics and weren't geared the best so maybe that's why.

[rabids]

I killed a couple of Gwurms at lvl 56 on my shaman. We were 56 sham, 56 ranger and 60 SK with epic. Was really hard, but we killed two of them before deciding that it was too dangerous.

Easy camp with ranger, tank, shaman and cleric, as long as they are high level and know how to play.

Count me in. Klauss, 60 Cleric

Putting Klauss down as my first solid "maybe" !

[Tupakk]

I just woke up. You still doing this.

[picklefixer]

Nothing going on atm, Klauss was the only person that showed any interest...and haven't seen him in game.

But i'm not giving up !

I'm game for this if anyone could do it weekdays 59 almost 60 bard here sure could trio with monk and shaman

[picklefixer]

Just a nasty ass bump!

[Tupakk]

I got wet wipes if you need a few.

[Dreenk317]

Farmed these a bunch personally. Best group imo, Torp shaman (slows and primary heals), ranger (dps and pulls), monk (tank and dps), druid (spot heals, harmony on adds, DS, buffs, etc.) I farmed them three or four times with this set up. It can be risky, slow resists can hurt. But it is definitely doable. And definitely possible for a torp shaman to solo heal if everyone is 60 and decently geared.

[Rizzle]

I have never done them but a few months ago someone was streaming and they were killing these. It was a 60 torp shm, 60 monk and 60 rogue, pretty sure they had some solid gear. Both monk and rogue would use tash sticks on pull to help land slow. They def cut it a bit close a few times but otherwise did fine.

[picklefixer]

Shameless bump =/

[picklefixer]

Where's my Tupakk at !?!?!

[shwally]

We did these last week trio. We had shaman, shadow knight and a 50 ranger that swapped to a monk after harmonying for pulling. It was rather slow going and as the shaman I wasn’t able to dot to help with kill speed. I spent 99% of my time canni/torp after slowing the mob. Would have went much faster with one more DPS. Also, the Shadow Knight was 56 so he was taking some big hits.

[mattydef]

We've 3 manned these a good amount with shaman/monk/rogue but prefer to have a cleric as well to make my job a lot easier.

[Somekid123]

Done these with epic mage shaman and bard.

[Pan]

Duo-ed this a bunch with an exceptional torpor shaman in the Kunark era. Quick tash proc was key.

I imagine it's lots easier now in Velious gear.

Not saying it's impossible but I'm a bit skeptical unless you're chugging wort pots like they grow on trees.

What was the other class besides shaman? I'd think it'd have to be a monk or a ranger to be able to split spawns and tank.

What gear did you have? What was your strategy? (pre-torpor on pull, malo, then both hitting with Jsticks to try and get a tash off, then malosini or straight to slow?

[Pan]

Was me on my monk. Was back in the day before the sneak-pulling nerf. No wort pots or soulfires. Torpor and malo on inc. Hope for a quick slow. Dual JWSs until tash. DS pot when I remembered.

Dicey but effective.

Dredging thru old logs is brutal, but

Here's a sample from GamParse:
/GU A guardian wurm in 710s, 29k @41dps --- Cloki 29k @41dps (100%)
/GU Healing for: Cloki -vs- A guardian wurm: -- Nimbletoe: 20696


the Ancient Wyverns are much easier:
/GU An ancient wyvern in 599s, 32k @54dps --- Cloki 31k @52dps (96.5%) --- Xeber 1k @2dps (3.5%) --- Nimbletoe 0k @0dps (0%)
/GU Healing for: Cloki -vs- An ancient wyvern: -- Nimbletoe: 3851

Look at the difference in heals needed between the two.



You can see that they're silly long fights.

Here are teh high points from a log of a that particular wurm fight:

[Mon Aug 26 11:23:30 2013] You begin to sneak...
[Mon Aug 26 11:23:56 2013] You hit a guardian wurm for 2 points of damage.
[Mon Aug 26 11:24:09 2013] A guardian wurm glances nervously about.
[Mon Aug 26 11:24:13 2013] A guardian wurm looks very uncomfortable.
[Mon Aug 26 11:24:28 2013] A guardian wurm yawns.
[Mon Aug 26 11:26:24 2013] A guardian wurm is consumed by the raging spirits of the land.
[Mon Aug 26 11:30:16 2013] A guardian wurm yawns.
[Mon Aug 26 11:35:14 2013] You have slain a guardian wurm!

Really a longass fight, but pretty doable if you get a slow in fairly early.

I have to expect it would be much, much easier in Velious gear. I had pretty shitty stuff in Aug of 2013.

[astuce999]

Cowpie (60 sham) and I (60 bard) duo'ed these pre-Velious.

It's as Cloki says (hi btw), long fights but doable.

good times.

[BarackObooma]

Nice! I can remember there being some real pain in the ass wurms that would resist slow for 1/2 your mana. And occasionally the roamers would wander in. Sounds like a fun challenge though!

[Teppler]

How was the loot when you were doing them successfully?

[Pan]

Prettymuch what you'd expect. But just slow. I think our duo took one Torpor spell out of there and not much else notable. It was more about the rush and luck and precision than anything else.

I wouldn't know what to expect. I'm wondering how much per hour people could get there.

It sounds like they are just like Sebilite Protectors which I've duo'd with Monk where they do the strategy of tash sticking before I start.

You don’t go for reoccurring loot. You go for a shot at torpor and to say you duod Gwurms

Truth. My only purpose at the time was to quiet naysayers who said bards couldn't tank anything, let alone duo GWurms. :)
