Today we might be late, around 10:00 PM I guess, but we still can join to help you. Raflik wants to take our priest.

But also wednesday is ok for us.

[Crow]

Since everyone who could come today seems at least fine with Wednesday lets do it then.

Thanks for the report. This bug will be corrected during the next maintenance on 08/05.

That explains everything.. It would be REALLY nice if they fix'd it.

[Crow]

Wow a bug report (on a bug which must have been there for months) and they respond to it before nearest maintenance? Maybe this warp portal is a good thing after all? Maybe they recruited more staff with start of WP ?

[Noire]

No, the number of Staff is the same - it's just that they are more active atm.

Just a small reminder - our mini run starts in 45 minutes.

We had quite a successful run yesterday. With just 6 of us the goal was to reach Doppler/Bio2 floor and we managed to achieve it in two and a half hour. We almost killed Doppler as well, but in critical moment we got swarmed by adds and wiped. Noire was a splendid tank. She tanked MvPs without any problems and pulled trash decently too. I think she can be a great off-tank on MvPs where she can't DPS (like Atroce). Take a look at the Kthul video I posted earlier to see how a pull with off-tank is done. The only problem we had was Samurai Specter pull. Perhaps next time we should just charge into him since he dies pretty quickly. Just put two pneumas up and everyone can find a spot for themselves.

Other very significant difference I have noticed was Chi being a gypsy. With proper skill build she can finally move fast when linked and using GK. Her AV allowed us to kill stuff quicker (although she still needs more dex and better weapons) and her Tarot turned out to work very well as a dispell tool. I don't know how it would work on MvPs where dispell is needed immediately (Atroce), but on mistress it was one of our faster kills.

Priests usually don't get much praise but both Anelai and Raflik performed very well. Buffs were up all the time, pneuma was always where it should be and heals landed on time. We had few stupid wipes but they were not due to priest mistakes.

Rafil, Chi - you need to get yourself fire property armors (armor with pasana card or Luciu's Fierce Armor of Volcano [1], though the latter is much more expensive). It was most apparent when we were killing Amon Ra without ME - half the raid laughed at his Meteor Storm and half died like flies. We will soon reach MvPs where we can't use ME (because we need pneuma) and will have to tank meteors.

Out of valuables we got Fortune Sword from Phree and CTM card. We also got Huuma Blade Shuriken and Ray Archer card, though that is crap. Anelai agreed to vend the stuff for us, so bug her for the zeny. We should roughly get 5 mil / person.

We could kill Doppler, but i forgot to switch my Sigruns to Wings of Victory after Arch Angeling, sorry.
Anyways - I don't know if you noticed guys but there was NO DRAMA this time, that's strange :DD

But I absolutely disagree about one thing:

I think she can be a great off-tank on MvPs where she can't DPS (like Atroce)

Code: Select all

(like Atroce)
(like Atroce)
(like Atroce)
(like Atroce)

What the hell? :D
Last time I did him 30~35k dmg per SB, but I died in last seconds because the SW wore off.
You hurt my little rainbow heart ;<<<

XD~

[Crow]

Ok, so like Atroce if there is no Sw available.

[Maczer]

Bout that MS thingie. I'm using swordfish mantle and horn stone buckler. Both cards are like half a milion altogether and still do the job.

While i agree we did well for a small group, i think it wasn't as magnificent as Crow says =]
