So, it's Thursday...
*cough*
Do we know what we're doing yet?

Well, of the four of us who didn't monk last time, three will be on front line. Triia's going on HB Warrior, so I'm just trying to decide who should play midline support between Kaiser, Mura, and myself.
I think I have the strongest midliners (Khunlin's max Ebon/Delver and OotV, and Khenine's max/max imbagon), so if Kaiser and Mura are up to running high-DPS frontliners, this might work out best. I'm thinking of a specific couple of builds, in this approximate order:
-IASin (Jagged, Fox Fangs, Death Blossom to trigger buffs a LOT. Can carry stuff like SY! on the rest of the bar)
-Vow of Strength Scythesin/derv (These guys hit for like 200 when the buffs are up, but have to cast enchantments every 20 seconds or so. That part bugs me)
-Hundred Blades Warrior (MASSIVE AoE paired with a Mark of Pain midliner)
-Hammer War
I can run any of those, so I'll be up for frontlining if one of you would rather midline than play those.
Assuming I'm midlining, I'll either run imbagon or E/N support based on whether or not Kiwi wants to run Mo/N physical support. If I'm E/N, we'll just add some support heroes and have you both monk. If I'm imbagon, we'll add one healer (as one of the warriors' heroes, so we can split), Kiwi will run damage support, and Jupiter will monk.
That's the best I can do with the feedback I got. I'll probably change my mind by tomorrow.
Which reminds me... let's try for tomorrow!

I'm not picky and I have just about everything on my monk anyway! If you have a bar, either I can run it, or it can't be run... or I'm missing a skill and I can take a minute to pick it up.

Alright, assuming that we run imbagon and buffer... the three of us get to fight over who does what.We need one healer with token prot, one imbagon (Jupiter or myself), one buffer (Kiwi or myself). I bring this up because I wasn't sure what you enjoyed on monk, Jupiter, so I'll leave it up to you whether you run healer or Imbagon.

Give or take the specific builds (Hammer / Hundred Blades Warrior is a bit open-ended), I believe I can run the frontliners with the exception of the dervish. |

Imbagon vs. Healer? Like a *real* healer? I guess I should go see if she can do that. At one time she couldn't but I think I fixed that, maybe.
EDIT: Well, I'd check if they hadn't broken everything with that update.

I can play any of those frontliners. I also have a fairly high Kurzick (r5-6) and Delver (r9) on my Ele.

If you guys are planning to bring Assassins, please pick up Jagged Strike, Fox Fangs, Death Blossom, Exhausting Strike, and Critical Eye. Elite options include Vow of Strength, Skull Crack, Flashing Blades, and Wastrel's Collapse.
Last skill spot would preferably be some PvE damage buff, such as Asuran Scan, or "I am the Strongest!". Could be an extra copy of "Save Yourselves!". Increased attack speed is unnecessary, since we'll have Red Rock Candies. Can bring an 8th skill if you have a Res Scroll
Customized Zealous and Vampiric weapons are best. I may have spares if you guys don't have any.

I can do one---and I think I have all the skills listed. |

Assassins are, IMO, the highest DPS (and, with GDW, heaviest disruption) of them all. Since we have SY!, armor is not an issue, so Assassins are my preferred (one HB is actually good, Triia, but more than one would've been overkill).
However, the point of the game is to have fun, no? So if you'd be all bummed out having to play an Assassin, I won't force you. Everyone just seemed pretty ambivalent, so I made the suggestion.

I'm quite fine with it---I was just curious since usually one assassin tends to be the limit in PvE a lot. As an item of note, it seems like the ice storms are beginning here. So I may not be available tonight should our power be gone because it destroys the power lines or something again. I don't think it'll be that severe; just a note. The same may be true for Kaiser/Jupiter. Though, last time we lost power and Atlanta didn't. So who knows.  |

Just got on my assassin to load the skill bar and noticed I didn't have the quest. I could have sworn I got it...but apparently not. I suppose I attempted to take the quest; I logged off to fast or afterwards. It's confusing since all the other characters on that account have it.  My warrior has it though, I know for sure---if you have a preference. I don't really care about the award; it seems like it won't trigger Dhuum otherwise from what I could make out (the talk page never clarified---sounded like it didn't matter but....never clarified it worked without). |

All of my characters have the quest, and I'm pretty sure that at least someone else also has it. So if you're worried about him not spawning, that won't be a problem.
But if you want to run your warrior anyway (free stuff!) I can get you a Hundred Blades build sorted out.
