Raiding - July 31st

Carrying on with Heroic!

Remember, we killed both Desolate Host and Sisters on Thursday, so we're working on Maiden next. Do some study on heroic Maiden!

Fatboss guide.

Pretty much the same as normal mode, but the hammer leaves a pool of goop(stack till it drops then dont stand in it), and sends out balls of appropriately coloured goop you need to avoid ESPECIALLY if its goop thats not the same colour as you.

Keen to try getting tanks to solo the hammer, we can stand against the wall, and slightly out of the group. Need to work up a CD rotation for this with an external or two. Apparently 'quite easy at lower raid sizes, and is much kinder on healer mana'.

Tank soloing the hammer sounds good to me, it would also mostly eliminate the resonance puddles being a factor.

Will need to have some redundancy of cooldowns though as it's possible to take hammer Fel, get switched to holy, then have to take hammer Holy straight thereafter.

Yeah, suspect we wont be able to solo all of them, but for things like the first transition back to p1, when we will be under lust with hopefully 10 stacks of the dps/heals buff it seems like a good time to remove a mechanic and let the pew focus on the pewing. We just need to be aware, make sure that when we do have to drop the puddle as a shared mechanic, we do so in a place where melee can still get to the boss without being to close to their other color, and proccing the bomb.

I will have a look for a weakaura for walking into the hole, we need to be much better at getting it at 1.5-2 seconds, and facing the right direction. If i find a good one (or ill make one), and share it later
