Arti Raids

[psyco]

thinking of doing a series of arti raids, so my question... witch are most required?

thinking of

JS(on each one)
EC(on every other one, as this requires alot of people, iirc... need to read up on this one)
MS(on each one)
GOV(on each one)
EOY(only once)
GS(only one)
Bat(on every other one, or maybe once)
Malice(on every other one, or maybe once)
SoM(if its up we'll do it)
SOKhaos(3 times, CShield will take its place)
CSheild(not many use this, iirc, so only once)
BoZ(need to read up on this)
CB(on each one)
EH(if we have items)
FS(once, but only if we have items, very time consuming...)
BoS(only on the day we do GS, its only a red/purp con FFS)

i will be doing these for 1 month every friday(may change)... if there is any i missed, or any i can drop, tell me and ill set a date asap

the reason i dont want to do them all is coz its very time consuming, and theres not enough time to do them all... and ofc all arti's are suject to change

and i need to read up on them all(arti n00b) so any info pm me, unless its a simple zerg thing...

Put bruiser in a couple of times, it's hardly ever done and the last time we wiped with 72 people.
Battler takes max 1 min to kill, so every time you do malice, do battler at the same time.

with every death, doesn't it get stronger?

Battler is tricky, he inherits the power of the people he kills. If he say kills a scout then he has ranged attacks, with a healer, he can heal himself. So as long as the first to drop is something crappy, then he shouldn't wipe your zerg. With a small group he can aggro the cleric and kill the cleric before taking substantial damage. With a zerg he dies before this happens (hopefully).

Anyway as in my other thread trying EC and Bruiser tonight.

anyway, will answer with a quote

ok, i hear you... but if it has the potential to wipe 72 people... and if we wipe when i do it... that will meen the BG will be held up 5-10 mins while people come back

and with 10-11 arti's done theres hardly room for that kind of delay

... that said, feel free to lead other arti's after the ones en route are done, just i wont be there

I think it was bugged the last time it was done. 72 people shouldn't really die in any encounter in the game, except in deep Sidi.

 

[Golena]

Yes and No.

He starts with no abilities but is magic immune.. when he kills people then he gains their abilities but it also lets spells land on him..
With even the slightest sign of a zerg, him killing one or 2 of them almost certainly results in him insta dying as casters suddenly gain the ability to damage him.

If you've got more than 2fg's with you then a minute to kill battler is pretty much guaranteed..

bruiser is another story entirely and i'd pretty much always stick it at the end of a raid if your doing it then just let people stay there till they get it or get bored or wipe.

 

[Bridd]

Only my opinion of couse, but i think the reason you wipe on bruiser, and find EC so hard, is because you have got the artis the wrong way around, or at the very least they are not broken up into alternative caster-tank artis.

As i have an infi as well, i can say i do not want to have to do maybe five caster artis in a row, just to get a swipe at malice, which might not be up, so there you have lost my alt and most of the tanks who might be interested in these kind of arti runs.

I can say we did ec and bruiser last night, with a mainly mellee - about 3fg - and we zerged both of them in less than a minute (i mean the last main mob for EC). You know both of these mobs are practically impervious to any kind of casting, so if you want to get them, serve up something to get the tanks to attend, put malice and battler in the top five artis and you will get more tanks showing up.

Basically,these runs are too slanted towards casters and healers.

Just a thought

 

[psyco]

the problem is, i dont know how long it will take to do these arti's so adding a few may result in very late raid, witch im not prepared to do...

Day 1
JS, GoV, (FS), EoY, BoZ, (EH), CB, STR, MS, *SoM*, Malice, EC

Day 2
JS, GoV, SoKhaos, (FS), CB, (EH), AT, MS, *SoM*, Bat, Bruiser

Day 3
JS, GoV, BB, (FS), GS, BoS, CB, (EH), MS, *SoM*, Malice, EC

Day 4
JS, GoV, CShield, (FS), CB, (EH), AT, MS, *SoM*, Bat, Bruiser

() 1 or the other, and will alternate for each day...
** If its up

any better?

 

[Coriolanus]

EoY can be hosted by anyone with a buffbot who needs it and servant necro and such, so you don't really need to host it on a main raid. Chances are anyone with a cleric has a second account with useful alts anyway.

just because it can be solod, doesn't meen it should be solo

 

[Coriolanus]

Not saying it should be soloed, but basically if you advertise an EoY raid then a load of clerics will turn up with useful alts on their 2nd accounts, that is why it is not worth doing, as it is done too easily elsewhere, and is rather time consuming.

Basically with a raid you want arties that are hard to do without a raid and do them quickly.

Day 3
JS, GoV, BB, (FS), GS, BoS, CB, (EH), MS, *SoM*, Malice, EC

If your going with this remove CB from day 3 here and do foppish on this day..

There's no reason to drag an arti raid into the middle of messo and back out again to do an arti that can be done easily with a necro, especially since you are doing it on the other 3 raids as well.
The other 3 make more sense, since you're also doing a more difficult arti there as well (AT/BoZ).

Maybe the day you do egg of youth put spear of kings in instead of jacina's sash to get more tanks to turn up since you'll be passing the door as well?

foppish may get attempted that day, if we have items

updated list

also, new rule to these raids, if this takes less than 3 hours to do, we will do other arti's or stuff for the remaining time... so if an arti isn't being done that you need turn up, it may get done at the end
