This post got off to a late start this week. Largely because much of my time was spent on recruiting and interviewing players. It’s also the first week of classes, so I’ve had to deal with that for work.
- After a soul-crushing wipe with 6 million health left on Forgeweaver, we managed to clear it in Death Jesters about an hour later after that fateful wipe. Lots of coordination required here, including DPS placement to really maximize that multi-target damage. The next step is Fractillus before we drop back to Soul Hunters. Looks like I’m drawing into the lineup for Soul Hunters. I’l have to start looking into that one closer as it seems to be more of an endurance encounter than anything else.
- Over in Last Call, we’ve passed a few trials and also released a few trials. We’re onto the next round of new players with the addition of two healers to help bolster our healing room. I wasn’t exactly happy during our first night on Plexus Sentinel. An hour later, with slow progress, I really wanted to get it down, and we went from 4 healers to 5 healers to really work on keeping the raid healthy. It took a bit longer as a result to get shields down and everything. Then we moved on up to Soulbinder and were able to clear that within a few pulls. I forgot to update our raid plan maps so our placements were slightly off, and I had to run the team through it real quick. Last thing I want to add is a Paladin who can play both Ret and Holy.
- This week, our goal is to clear Loom’ithar and get some pull info on Forgeweaver. I worry we’re going to reach my limits when it comes to the planning of CDs, groups, and CC usages. I might need to get some additional help with it here.
Let’s have a great week!
