Couple tips on this mob:
  • Be careful the range on this mob is HUGE. But it is not social.
  • Clear the door mobs before pull or they WILL help out at 50%, no matter what.
  • Pet pull to have the pet absorb the first aoe, set that as the timer
  • Second AOE comes at ~1min 15sec into the fight. Have a class with aoe immunity time for this (Swashbuckler, Bard) or a class with a QUICK group arcane cure (templar, mystic, Inquisitor).
  • Burn the mob down. It only has ~1million HP and your raid has had 2 minutes to beat on it. If your raid is doing at LEAST 8k dps you should be fine.  My raid only did 6k and we got hit with the 2nd aoe but managed to burn it down with only 2 groups alive at the end.
  • The best place to pull it is in the room right after the door but before the big room with this mob. Have the tank hold it against one of the pillars and keep the raid in the corner.  This maximizes the raids survivability for the random AOE's

We did this zone again last monday night. I tanked it so you can check out my gear here

http://eq2players.station.sony.com/...terId=228765303

I had my mental resist a bit higher on the night but not much. We breezed through as far as Final Warden, killed him and waited on repops. We killed the repops and then accidentally pulled the named. 10 seconds into the fight someone got knocked back towards the door and we got the adds from the previous room. I tanked those too and we burned em down one by one before switching back to the named. I think 10 people died on that fight but even with the extra adds it was easy beyond belief. You would not even have noticed the named was there when we were taking on the adds.

No review necessary. Maybe you guys need to do a few labs raids and get your gear and skill up to scratch before you try again

Finally got around to doing MOA4. We were using a ventrilo server that was set up so that if you didn't say anything for a certain amount of time, it would boot you down to the AFK channel. I got sick of having to click myself back up into the raid channel, so I eventually just stayed in the AFK channel even though I couldn't hear what was being said in the raid.

The funny thing is, I started screwing around and was only half paying attention (so what if I was a main healer SMILEY), when I suddenly hear the ding from finishing part of a quest. We had just killed the boss and I didn't even know it until he was dead!

We are not an uber guild, so if you're having trouble with this encounter, I'd say look to your gear or your tactics.

Thanks to the guys in "Cataclysm", for letting me join, and getting my mark.

I still believe that this zone needs a review since the game update that chagned mitigation, etc.
