madstab are you mad i cant tell ??

no laughing at clueless people talking about velious content...

[Kergan]

What server did you do Velious on Mavstab?

[MavstabYoudead]

the beta server with the rest of holo obviously. I was only 5 when eq released so I have to pretend like I did the content.

I personally think 50-60 is a great number for ToV.

The pals who came over here from blue do NOT want to go back and deal with the leap frog/lag fest that will be ToV.

This isn't plane of fear either. If some idiot from another guild trains even 2 cleric wurms in ToV, its going to be a wipe fest.

thanks for your expert analysis. those transfers will be back on blue day 1 when velious hits there and not here.

Yeah 450 in temple of veeshan and people leap frogging dragons

Oh boy which of the characters in my blue empire should I play for that

did I say we'd do it with 30? you don't need a guild your size to clear everything in velious, period.

also can't wait to see how many of your guild disappears when velious releases on blue and not on red. going to be glorious.

Here let me spell this out for you slowly so that you can understand this the third time you've seen me post it:

• To clear high end velious mobs you will need at least 50ish toons (some mobs will need less later on in the expansion after players have more gear)
• In order to fill these number requirements, guilds must recruit
• If you only recruit towards the numbers you NEED to kill mobs, then you're already losing
• You have to recruit beyond your number requirement for raids because people may leave, get bored, or have mobs fall into their work schedules

Lets use a stepping stone mob like Derakor the Vindicator as an example, as its a hard hitting, unslowable mob with roughly 10x the hp of kunark dragons

• For this fight you ideally want to have 3 warriors on hand (rotate evasive/defensive), while you can tank without evasive/defensive it's not ideal and eating a bad round could ruin your day.
• One needs to be tanking at all times with disc (backup tanks ready to pickup aggro, having started taunting throughout the fight) with another tank class soaking rampage (sk/pal are gr8), along with a healer dedicated to your rampage tank
• Clerics must have a solid CH rotation set up, ideally with pause/tell macros and necros dedicated for dumping mana into them.

Now here's the catch to all of this

What happens when all of a sudden you only have 1 warrior and 1 paladin online and vindi is up?

What happens when you only have 1 dedicated cleric and someone with an alt cleric online?

Nobody is responding to the batphone because they're at work/with family

You can't even think about downing the mob even though its spawning and now someone else gets uncontested pixels. Good job, you're running an amazing guild.

[Nirgon]

Lets say a guild clears all (or the majority) of Lord/Lady dragons in ToV

Then the other snipes Vulak

Lawls.

Or one guild engages Aaryonar and others run past.

You think the complaining about people clearing fear on blue then a raid guild nailing CT is bad... you ain't seen 250 truly angry nerds before.

game is much easier now than it was on live due to knowing game mechanics so much better. did everything in velious with 50 max before knowing about mallets, using charmed pets for insane dps, etc.
