I forgot... was it Friday or Saturday that was going to work well? Either way, Dhuum this weekend! I want to say Friday, I think, because...I think I logged in before I decided to uh...go visit other people. |

I'm planning to get home at about 6:30 GMT-7, and I'll be ready to go.

Why must there always be GMT times? What about the EST slots?  Kaiser and Jupiter unite with me! Edit for wrong smiley. |

Alrighty... next time I think we want to refine the team to drop some of the general defense (most areas were a cakewalk) to add a lot of offense and some anti-Dryder defense (I'm assuming that the Dryders were the only thing that approached a threat... the monks will have to give their feedback).
Anti-dryder defense possibilities:
-Imbagon
-Hero Life Barrier bonder (looked up the UW skillset... very isolated ench removal)
-Winter and Mantra of Frost (Winter will also up our eles' damage vs. the Wrathful Banshees or whatever on the Plains)
-Lots and lots of partywide healing
-Spirit spammer with actual energy management
Interrupts could also work, but that would be more of a teamwide thing.
Any other ideas/thoughts?

Any other ideas/thoughts? The defensive line sounds good. When I saw Razah, I figured it was going to be the typical Signet of Spirits build though (I had a feeling energy management would be iffy when I saw the hero bar; I hadn't done RL in a while, so I didn't think I had any decent input to give). I think the Imbagon would be good. I've had bonder heroes do some crazy AI things before, so I'm not sure how I feel about it (though there's been so many hero AI updates since I last used one that it's probably been resolved). Monk with LoD? ;D I had a relatively easy time all the way throughout myself. I had gorgeous self-heals and pretty good damage. I think dual SF builds of that type would make it all the more deadly though with less one-man burning proc there. I'm fairly flexible though. If you need me to shift characters or builds I can. Since if I recall, the conqueror of the UW trophy is account-wide now, I think? |

The ball of dryders at the end was too much for my heal party... we might've wanted to spread out there if possible, but who knows. I like imbagons, though! If they still work... I dunno what's changed.

Am I correct in assuming that we'd like to just get it done this time around? As in, nice, quick, and rampageous? If this is the case, physical damage overload is the way to go. I'll drop back to support (Strength of Honor, Great Dwarf Weapon) and our non-monks can switch to physical damage classes (IASins, Scythe/Vow/Aura Dervs, Hundred Blades Warriors etc). Pack in "Save Yourselves!"on the frontliners or somewhere, and we should be able to stomp through much faster than before. For planning's sake, does anyone else have r3-4 Kurzick (for Imbagon or DS Warrior), or an Ele/Necro/Monk with high level Great Dwarf Weapon? Also, what's our availability like this weekend? I'm up for either night, just not before 6:00ish GMT-7 on Friday. |

Getting it done would be nice. xD I have r3-4 Kurz (maybe higher? I can't remember) but no Imbagon or Warrior... you should know Von has r10 Dwarven, though, and I know I have GDW, so I could do that.
I'm available Friday. Curt's going to BASIS's formal on Saturday so I need to be on call to pick him up when it ends or when he gets bored.

You may be thrown on SoH/GDW/Orderbot then But I'm thinking we should run triple human melee physicals with lots of PvE skills and then at least one human monk, or one human active defense and two hero monks The middle can be a combination of damage support and some defense (a monk, if we don't have an imbagon), and two heroes. Some example builds: Human Physical SupportHero Interrupt SupportProbably some minions, EBSoH, and Orders in there somewhere. Anyone feel particularly attached to/averse to some position, let me know. The PvE skill levels question still stands. |

I should be fine for either Friday or Saturday (as far as I'm aware).
I'm only r2 Kurzick (I believe 82k or such away from r3) / Delver is r7.
The only two classes I can't do it on are para and dervish (I didn't get them the waiting game for some reason).

R7 Kurzick here (how...?). I'd like to shy away from the melee spots, personally. My paragon's there and actually has the quest.  She may not be as imbagonish as yours, Khunlin, but if we need you on the front line, she's probably good enough (has SY, TNtF and my version of that build *cough*disruption, r7 Sunspear, r5 Delver...goes down from there - not many other PVE skills either). What's the actual build? I loved monking there too if needed - I'm slowly recovering from the horrible situation of being able to prevent total loss and failing at it. Most of my PVE skills are on my ranger, monk and ele (in that order i.e. r9,r9,r3 on delver). My necro I think would be useless. Oh and I have no idea what's going on this weekend. I think I can do either day but I'm not so sure of Kaiser's schedule. |

I can stick with my warrior, if needed. I have r5 Kurzick, nearly r6 and had "SY!" with me (though I'd often forget to use it D: ). She doesn't have a lot of other PvE skills or much rank, so I'd need advanced notice. I'm actually available Friday and Saturday, this weekend. Khunlin, your link to "DS Warrior" is broken. What is that? |
